Beat the Heat

Anaheim is under HEAT ADVISORY this weekend! Please prepare yourself accordingly and consider bringing the following to keep yourself cool and collected:

Water Bottle

Hand Fan (or battery-powered, if you live in luxury)

and possibly a Parasol, in case of an outside queue

But there's no better way to beat the heat than with a chilled drink, am I right? There's a Starbucks in the adjacent parking lot, but we know what y'all really want...

A slight drive, but there’s plenty of interesting shops and cafes in a walkable area.

Fun fact: one of the many things they filmed here was American Horror Story: Coven, so for a week or so there was a bunch of fake snow piled around things in a sorry attempt to make it look like Boston(?)
