Ann Arbor, Michigan is famously known for having the University of Michigan right at the heart of the city. Ann Arbor is a hub for great art and good food. Hosting the annual Ann Arbor Arts Festival every July, be sure to make Ann Arbor a weekend get away. While visiting, there are a plethora of options to choose from all of which are family friendly and can range from a splurge to just really good food at low prices. Living here for almost a decade, we break down our top 10 favorite places to go out to eat and drink.
When we talk about Ann Arbor, we think of this large circular area, encompassed by Highways 14, 94 and 23 . First, there’s the downtown which consists of Kerrytown, the Old West Side, and the Main Street area, right close to the University. Downtown is walkable from each neighborhood and there is abundant parking both on the streets and garages. The north, west, and south sides of Ann Arbor are home to residential neighborhoods, and the Briarwood Mall is situated in the southern part conveniently located right off highway 94. All areas have good food which our recommendations will bounce you around to each part of the town.
