This is a chain but I’ve been eating at Yolk for 10+ years. Highly recommend if you want a solid brunch. This one is BYOB.

Outdoor Activities

Running/biking paths
Elevated running/biking path ~ 0.5 miles from the condo. I believe it’s 2.7 miles total. You can access it easily if you walk North on either Artesian (prettier option) or Western. Access to the trail is on Western.
