One of our favorite things to do is hike and get outdoors. Ruffner is a top favorite hike for us in Birmingham. We start at the nature center, take the Quarry trail up to the Overlook trail. Best view of the city!

P.S. Ruth Allison took that photo!

Red Mountain is a place that both of us have enjoyed for years! It is an easy and enjoyable leisure hike with beautiful scenery.

Birmingham is a huge brewery scene and has always been a fun hangout spot for us and our friends.

Back Forty is our favorite because of the burger (iykyk) and the fun outdoor environment! It's dog and kid friendly. :)

Best po'boys this side of the Mississippi! We dare you to disagree! But really, we love this hole-in-the-wall New Orleans-inspired cajun restaurant, and we don't think you can go wrong here.

This is one of our favorite spots for birthdays, date nights, and other various celebrations. We recommend the fried okra, tikka masala, garlic naan and lamb vindaloo!

We LOVE coffee and have always enjoyed supporting our local coffee roasters when we aren't making our own. Scott also used to be a barista in college and even had a drink named after him called the Scottè Latte! We think that Seeds has the very best coffee in town!

The basil smash is our go-to cocktail. This place is the coolest!

And also where we went the first night we decided to go on a date!
