10 Things to Do After a Midtown Yoga Class
It’s hard to believe it’s been almost one year since Midtown Yoga joined the North Hills community. The area around our studio has so much to offer whether you’re looking to indulge in a post-class cocktail, sweet treat, or even some retail therapy. Here are ten of our favorite North Hills spots within walking distance of the studio that we recommend visiting after your next Midtown Yoga class!
Happy and Hale offers a menu full of yummy treats from Falafel Bowls to smoothies that will rejuvenate you from the inside out. Their menu also includes vegan options and you have to try their vegan peanut butter brownies! And lucky you - as an appreciation for being a Midtown Yoga student you get a discount! My favorite is the Incredibowl with extra squash and avocado cilantro dressing. What's yours?
It’s elegant enough for business gatherings or just the right ambiance for a fun girls night out. Guys, you are welcome too—they have beer options! Vita Vite hosts local art throughout their space that adds a fun, local ambiance. Vita Vite comes from the Italian words for “life” and “vine” – the idea that life revolves around wine and food, bringing people together in a common space to appreciate the beautiful things that can enrich life.

I can smell the waffle cones from here. This chocolate shop will keep you coming back time and time again. Kilwins is a family-owned franchise that has been melting and making chocolate since 1947.
