Timeline
11:00
Start at Gallery Lacosse. It opens at 11:00 on weekdays, so you can arrive right as the doors open. Spend some time looking at the local paintings, pottery, and jewellery in a quiet setting before the day gets busy.
11:30
Walk four minutes to Whodunit Mystery Bookstore. It is just down the street and opens at 10:00, so it will be open. Browse the shelves for a unique find or just enjoy the atmosphere of a small independent bookshop.
12:00
Head to Bar Italia for a drink. It is a six-minute walk from the bookstore. The bar opens at 09:00, so it is fully open. Grab a coffee or a drink on the patio if the weather is nice, or inside where the billiard tables are.
13:00
End your walk by strolling along Corydon Avenue itself. The street is lined with fashion boutiques, antique shops, and gift stores. You can wander at your own pace and see the mix of upscale second-hand finds and local crafts.
Local tip
Corydon Avenue is walkable and flat. Most shops open around 10:00 or 11:00, so starting mid-morning ensures everything is open. Bar Italia is 18+, so keep that in mind if you are looking for a drink.
