We had our 1st date here! Amy's go-to is the iced coffee and Christopher loves the mochas!

Northern Vessel

Amy loves the oatmilk cortados here!

Coffee Cats Cafe

This is one of Chris' favorite places! Coffee.. cats.. need we say more?

Bix & Co

Best. Chicken tenders. Ever.

The Tavern

An Ortiz family favorite! Their pizza and onion rings are *chefs kiss*

Black Cat

If you need your daily ice cream fix (like Amy), check out one of Black Cat's 2 locations. Amy's favorite is brown butter cookie dough!

Historic Valley Junction

We love to walk around Valley Junction and pop in the many shops along the way. If you're a fan of antiques and thrifting, check out Memory Lane!

Raccoon River Park

(Weather permitting) Raccoon river is our favorite place to go on walks! There is a nice trail and a playground for the kids! If you enjoy geocaching like us, go hunting for a few caches while you're there!
