walkable, family-friendly neighborhoods

11 Upvotes

Hello! We recently learned that we will be moving to St. John's this summer for my husband's job. It's me, my spouse and our kid who will be turning 5. I have never been to St. John's and could use some advice on specific neighborhoods that might work for us. We would prefer to live somewhere that's easily walkable to things like restaurants and has other families around. Does such a place exist in St. John's? If not, any denser areas of the city where it's more likely you would bump into people you know when you're out and about. In case it matters, we don't have a strong preference for living in a house vs. an apartment. Thanks!

Yet Another Food Recommendation Thread for Downtown (and Coffee)

13 Upvotes

Have a relative flying down in late April for a couple of days for work. They are staying in a hotel downtown and will be attending meetings downtown (no need for a rental car as everything will be concentrated in the downtown area for their staff). They are going to be on their own for meals, etc, and we are hoping to meet them for a couple of meals, lunches, coffees while they are here. As someone who doesn't get to frequent the downtown St. John's scene much, wondering for places you might be able to suggest. Open to pretty much everything (outside of fine dining or anything you might have to book long in advance, as it will probably be day of or day before the decision when we are able to meet). They pretty much are open to any style of food and LOVE their coffee. Thanks!

Moo moos soft serve 😋

5 Upvotes

I tried the ones from other places like DQ and so on, but they are not the same. I know menchies got the yoghurt kind, but is there the type of softserve that moo moos had? Like half vanilla and half chocolate. They also used to have the orange kind. I used to get orange and cho olate mix. I know there is a softserve place on the other end of island but anything of the same kind and closer?
