Timeline
16:21
Grab a coffee at Golden Cup. It is a roastery on Jefferson Avenue, so you know the beans are fresh. The space is open until 19:00 on weekdays, so you have plenty of time before the sun goes down.
16:51
Walk 39 minutes NNW to Shakespeare in Delaware Park. This is your viewing spot. The park is the setting for the outdoor theatre, and on this date the sun sets toward the WSW around 17:06. Find a seat on the grass or a bench and watch the light fade over the stage area.
17:36
Head back toward the anchor for dinner. The Oakk Room is a Jamaican-influenced soul food spot just 7 minutes from the Paul Robeson Theatre. It opens at 16:00 on weekdays, so it is ready for you after sunset. Order the crab cakes or whatever comfort food jazzed with exotic spices sounds good tonight.
Local tip
The walk from Golden Cup to the park is long (39 mins). If you want to shorten it, take the Metro Bus. The Oakk Room is small, so arriving right at 16:00 helps avoid a queue.
