An easy introduction to the blocks around North Davidson and East 36th. Start around noon so the shops are open, linger over one coffee, then browse before finishing with a scoop. Smelly Cat closes early, so put it first.
Find your personal favorites through separate visits: a coffee seat, a cat-cafe session, a pastry stop, a neighborhood shop, a doughnut and an occasional brewery event. These spread beyond one block, so choose one or two for each visit. Book the cat lounge in advance when required.
