You can get everything from unique Jewelry to custom framing to viewing a custom aquarium complete with all types of wildlife. You name it, it's here.

There are price points for everyone. Stop by and you'll be happy you did!

I got a very purple ube infused gin cocktail and it was very delicious! Delicious Flavors while still having some kick, which is a problem I have at other cocktail bars, the drinks being good but too weak. GF really liked her drink too. Second drink was a bourbon coffee cocktail and I'm not a huge bourbon fan but this one was quite pleasant! Just enough sweetness and other flavors to balance out the bourbon, and because it's valentine, you know you're always getting quality liquor in your drinks. Bartenders were very attentive and friendly. Drinks were also pretty reasonable, around 14-17$ for a cocktail. Lots of whiskey pours available if that's your vibe too. They have some snacking options available too but we were going to dinner after, which I think is what this place is best for.

It was a cool vibe with a lot of sparkly chandeliers and red velvet. The drinks we got were decent but nothing mind blowing.

It is geared towards women and nonbinary individuals and created a safe and supportive environment for them to grow their dreams and aspirations in, but it is open to any and all who want to check it out! Anyone can have access to the main floor of BasBlue, where there is an INCREDIBLE cafe to get delicious drinks and food from.

It is a non-profit organization and just a gloriously safe and intentionally-curated space to foster creativity and amazing vibes. I always feel so at peace and centered when I'm at BasBlue and love to take meetings from here as often as I can! It's located very close to the DIA, but only open during the weekdays. So pay attention to their hours and if you're looking for a great place to work from or are interested in learning more about what a membership here could bring, definitely check BasBlue out!!

As a guy, I cannot join. I was here as part of an event and this is based on what I saw and…read moreexperienced. Limited street pay parking, there is a shared lot nearby. This is a very nicely renovated mansion turned into a woman's club. Like a late 1800's gentleman's club, only for women. There is a locker room/workout room/nursing area, but I did not see them because I am not a woman. They have lectures and groups within the club. They have a full kitchen, and the usual food on offer seemed like you would expect at a starbucks or better. They have drinks, coffee, and wine. The wine was higher end. And they use an ordering app so members at different rooms of the club can order easily. Lots of rooms. Dining and lecture rooms, lounge and club type rooms, conference rooms. A large event room. All really nice. There are smaller serving bars on the second and third floors. Depending on age, annual membership is 600 or 1200 dollars. It looked great. Maybe it could have used more restrooms, but that is sort of reaching for something negative to say.

What a quaint store hidden a little bit outside of downtown Ferndale. If you blink, you might miss…read moreit, but if you love shopping around downtown Ferndale and spend a good chunk of time at Rust Belt Market, stopping by Olive's Bloombox before or after is the perfect way to round out your sojourn in Ferndale. This place offers so much in the way of indoor and outdoor plants, pots, and every other plant accessory under the sun. I always manage to find hidden gems in this space and honestly, some of my favorite plants and pots that I've gotten (and there are a lot of them) are from here! The staff is so knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. I brought my friend here who wanted to start getting into maintaining indoor plants in her new home. She picked out a few succulents and a gorgeous pot from Olive's Bloombox and they happily potted all of them into the pot for her to take home. They are so incredible and their stock is constantly changing, so go often & search high and low! There are always some seriously unique gems here that I can never find anywhere else and I love them for it. :)

So on my way back I passed another business and was looking at things in the windows and at the end I saw some plants. So I go in and talked the young lady and she was very kind and helpful and took her time to show me what she had to sell. I picked out three cute little plants and she off to box them together since I was walking. It was a really great experience and look forward to returning again.

I usually park on the residential street behind the venue because by the time I arrive, the surrounding parking lots are all full. This works out in my favor though because I have not had to pay for parking. You enter through the back where they check your ID and scan your ticket. They have a nice little seating area with benches towards the back and a decent sized area for a "pit" where you would watch the show. All of their drinks seem fairly priced for a music venue. I paid $8 for a Bell's Oberon Eclipse. It does get SUPER hot in there, especially if you are in the mix closer to the stage.
