3.8 miles. " Half Step feels more like a house party than a bar. The Craftsman-era building has a front porch with landscaping, a living-room style interior, and a backyard with a banister and seating, making it the perfect place to chill with a cocktail and new friends. You’ll find regulars hanging out back in the shade provided by the trees, or on the front porch acting as if it were their own. Depending on the day, occasional live country music or events like hot dog eating contests get people feeling patriotic.The cocktails here are simple, which fits perfectly with the laid-back homey atmosphere. Not over-complicated or showy, most are made with four ingredients or less, by bar staff that epitomize southern hospitality."
