Conveniently located under Joey’s Pizza and a mile down the street from the Santa Rosa campus, Gary’s at the Belvedere is casual, cozy and offers students a place to loosen up. It’s not the type of place you ask for a drink menu. Affordable prices make the casual dive-bar a perfect place for SRJC students to grab a drink, shoot some pool, or play air hockey with friends without breaking the bank.

Oak Leaf guide to best places to go after a breakup

February 10, 2015
Hidden in a business park less than three miles from the Santa Rosa Junior College campus is Vertex Climbing Center, a jungle gym for adults and one of the best first date spots. It’s a great place to take a date to build up an appetite before dinner and release some endorphins. There is no better way to break the ice than to experience a humbling fall in front of a date. Laughter and conversation will most likely come easier than the climbing. With a current student ID card all-day admission is just $10 and Vertex stays open until 10 p.m. Monday though Friday.
