Family Friendly
This park has an incredible playground that parents can navigate fairly easily (i.e. minimal amount ducking). There is also a splash pad, pavilions, basketball courts, and restrooms. It's very close to Main St. and the Mesa Light Rail.

Food scene
This is an incredible place for locally made bread products. Their pain au chocolat is the best I've had in the U.S. (I lived in France for a while, so I've eaten quite a bit of pain au chocolat). It's on the pricier end (~$5/pastry), but such a tasty local spot.

Get the Graham Canyon Ice Cream, you won't regret it. This is one of the only places outside of Utah that you can get BYU Creamery ice cream so if you've never had it I recommend trying it out.
