BREKKIE
(Petite) MarieBette
Two locations, both open for breakfast and lunch.
Their motto is Vive Le Gluten! but Lauren tries not
to take that personally.
Bodo's Bagels
An all-day haunt for bagels, eggs, and sandwiches.
Fun fact: Lauren has been craving a Bodo's bagel for a decade. Go enjoy one for her.
DINNER
Tilman's
Wine bar with salads, sandwiches, and charcuterie.
For Lauren, a perfectly-sized dinner.
For Brian, a snack.
Ten
A nice dinner of sushi and Japanese small plates.
Fun fact: Brian could eat sushi for every meal.
Lauren could not.
DRINKS
Fitzroy
Bar food, and a great place to grab a beer.
Brian used to be a bar-back here in college, which is why he is now legendary at washing dishes.
The Alley Light
French small plates and from-scratch cocktails.
Great for dinner, dessert, or just drinks.
A literal light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank You
Your presence is gift enough, but we appreciate the gesture regardless.
A card box will be available at the reception, and
we will release our registry details here closer to the day.
