The Elmhurst Experience
Starbucks. Okay, it’s one of 16,680 Starbucks, and the prices just went up again. But college and coΩee seem to go hand in hand, and what’s a downtown without a Starbucks? Alternatives: Elijah's, Panera Bread. BuΩalo Wild Wings. With mega tvs nearly wall-towall, this bar and grill is the place to go when seven games are on and you don’t want to miss any of them.
Cold Stone Creamery. They say they oΩer the “ultimate cold indulgence”: smoothies, cakes, shakes and “custom creations” prepared on a frozen granite stone.
Two Brothers from Italy. The pizza is good, they’re open late, and they deliver to the residence halls. What more do you need to know? Alternatives: Pizza Palace, Armand’s.
Silverado Grill. The motif is Western, complete with steer heads; but when our Jazz Band makes one of its regular appearances, it transforms the place into something more swing than twang.
Just outside town: Oakbrook Center, about ten-minutes south of campus, has more than 160 shops and restaurants. Yorktown Center, about ten minutes west, is another hub for retail, dining and entertainment.
