A MUST if you love local, craft breweries. There are alot of breweries making an appearance in the area, but this is our top favorite - the environment, the staff, all the beer, plus you can bike here - you must visit! Try the Bruce Banner!

One of our favorite hikes - plus you can mountain bike if you are feeling extra gutsy - only about a 30 minute hike, too. Great views, highly recommend. (Dog friendly!)

Take a drive through the Cathedral Spires before you hit the hot spot Mt. Rushmore. It’s on the way but so gorgeous!

Food scene

Our favorite (as well as many locals) love this place for brunch. Get there early though - it fills fast and they don't take reservations. It's a great fine dining restaurant for dinner as well. Traveling alone? Sit at the bar and make some friends!

Atop the historic Hotel Alex Johnson in downtown Rapid City. It's an exclusive sky bar & restaurant to members and hotel guests, but as members, let us know if you'd like to make this a place to see before you book and we'll make sure to have day passes for you! (Must be 21+)

This is my husband and I’s favorite cafe in the area. From açaí bowls to breakfast burritos and specialty coffees, it’s family friendly and beautiful.

Hands down the best fine dining restaurant in the area. We love making the trip for special occasions to try their rotating menu. There is a reason you have to have reservations ahead of time!
