Garner, NC
The locals still gather at the Toot-N-Tell Family Restaurant, as much for gossip as for the traditional Southern fare. Recent revitalization efforts, aimed at restoring the historic downtown, feature one of only a few Wake County railroad stations still standing in its original location. Downtown also boasts a thriving performing arts scene. You can see top Broadway singers, nationally known comedians and one of the Triangle’s premier theater groups at the Garner Performing Arts Center. Just down the street you can go ice skating at Polar Ice House. Nearby you can shop to your heart’s content at White Oak Crossing. Or you can play a round of golf at Eagle Ridge Golf Club. And for some serious adult fun, zip up your driving suit and go, go, go at RushHour Karting.
Where it is: Located approximately 15 minutes south of downtown
