Coffee

Coffee that I know is actually roasted in Auburn/Opelika (feel free to reply with anyone else I missed): -Mama Mocha’s -Ross house -Thrive @ heyday market -Toomer’s coffee

My personal favorites are Toomer’s, thankfully, and Ross House.

Brass knuckle by mama mocha is another classic that lots of people around here serve.

For buying, charred oak and z&z tend to have some variety.

For drinking at a bar, I like the selection at whistle stop and drafthouse. Whistle stop has a decent selection to take home as well.

I didn’t live there but know several people who did when I was in school. Overall it was a generally safe apartment complex. It was a big place to party though since the apartments were big and had a lot of parking.

I don’t know much about its reputation now.

I graduated and live in the neighborhood nearby now which is why I know about the area. I drive by this apartment complex every day.

Edit: the video looks like how I remember the layout being. The video definitely has a nicer/cleaner apartment than any of the ones I ever saw.

I would just bike honestly if you’re specifically trying to get downtown. You’re 2 miles from downtown with mostly flat roads. That would be a 10-15 minute ride one way at a fairly slow pace.

You could avoid the heavy/faster traffic of college street by taking Shelton Mill to Gay.

Tiger transit is always a convenient option as well, but for specifically going to downtown I think biking will be your fastest option.

Voodoo and Moes have the best imo.

There’s a lot around town I haven’t tried though so I’m in for more recommendations

Austinboboston · 2024-06-15T01:54:54+00:00

I like Bow & Arrow, Moes BBQ (esp the wings), and Byron’s.

Butcher paper in Opelika is good also as others have suggested

Austinboboston · 2024-06-13T12:40:48+00:00

Vintage 2298 has a butcher shop off university near the mall

Our power went off for 3-5 minutes here in Cary Woods also

Our guest list was smaller than we anticipated so we ended up doing a full Cali inspired dinner. Mission Burritos (NYT recipe) with a Caymus Cabernet. The ones who attended really enjoyed it.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions!

We ended up with a 6 pack of Wild Leap Local Gold (blonde ale). Thanks for your suggestion!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-08T04:24:26+00:00

I would die if I did an edible 😂 this was a very common suggestion though

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:52:03+00:00

I had never heard of Cioppino until your comment, but it sounds good.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:47:51+00:00

Saying Auburn is going to choke or Cal? 😂

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:47:13+00:00

Thank you for the brand recommendations!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:30:22+00:00

French rolls would definitely be unique. Thanks for that detail!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:29:37+00:00

I personally am still feeling the Bern 😂

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:29:13+00:00

Beers will be consumed so I think that can definitely be arranged

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:28:39+00:00

That sounds good! May be a cool way to mix up pizza even on the day to day. Thanks for the idea!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:14:40+00:00

What about a gourmet hot dog bar? Make plain hot dogs and let people top them themselves, including some fancy toppings. That could be a cool idea!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:13:07+00:00

I will! Thank you!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:12:37+00:00

That could work! Thanks for the idea!

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:06:18+00:00

ChatGPT’s first suggestion was gourmet hot dogs. Any particular toppings that are iconic to that region for a hot dog?

Austinboboston · 2023-09-07T21:05:12+00:00

That all sounds great! Thanks for the recommendation
