The Liberty building is one block away and is home to Angry Troll Brewing which offers an extensive menu and many NC beers on tap. They also feature 10+ TVs offering sporting events of all types. They are open Thursday to Sunday for lunch and dinner. The Reeves Theater and Cafe is one of the premier live music venues in the country.

The Bar at the Reeves is open during all shows and serves primarily local beer & wine. There are two great coffee shops within EASY waling distance. The Barking Coyote Cafe offers coffee (no coffee drinks) but also features many farm to table products including wonderful scones and french toast frittata.

This pool is THE place to be in the warmer months of the year. It is where all the kids and teenagers go in their free time to swim, dive, eat, and hang out. It’s dingy appearance does not reflect the joy and fun that comes with this pool. The pool and park are the epicenter for kids because there is not much else for them to do. We like to think that having a wide variety of things to do is better but sometimes have a couple simple things can still bring great joy to those experiencing them. #appalachianechoes ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/183748/72f573ce-5e99-4ba1-b5c3-187022396804.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Elkin City Park 6 min walk \- 0.6 km - ![The view is great 💚](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6354360/05b120e0-975f-407a-825f-cbf8b1890011.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Stone Mountain State Park 21 min drive \- 29.2 km - ![Finally got to visit Mayberry.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6058384/8e5ee3ea-2736-4e07-bcbb-20763785eb79.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) The Andy Griffith Museum 33 min drive \- 58.5 km - Elkin Creek Vineyard 10 min drive \- 11.4 km - Raffaldini Vineyards and Winery 12 min drive \- 13.0 km ### Getting around - Winston-Salem, NC (INT-Smith Reynolds) 50 min drive ### Restaurants - Bojangles' Famous Chicken 'n Biscuits 4 min drive - McDonald's 4 min drive - KFC 4 min drive - Cookout 4 min drive - Angry Troll Brewing 2 min walk ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Former city jail!
