A premier shopping center and nearby supermarkets

Thirsty Lion Gastropub & Grill offers an eclectic selection of pub bites, with popular menu items including the spicy fried chicken sliders and the Szechuan orange chicken. “Margharita Factory is a new one that just opened,” Lankheet says. “It’s become pretty popular and has a nice atmosphere for indoor and outdoor dining. It’s a good area for new restaurants due to the shopping traffic.” For everyday shopping needs, residents are within minutes of the nearest Walmart, Fred Meyer, WinCo Foods and Whole Foods Market.
