What works

Consistently well reviewed

The same hours all week (8:00 AM – 6:00 PM), so there is no schedule to memorise.
Dogs welcome
Listed as dog-friendly — bring the leash and waste bags anyway.
Free parking
A free lot and free street parking — one less thing to pay for, though paid options sit alongside it.
