There are a handful of record shops on South Street, but 611 Records is a great store for dance, alternative, trance and house records. Both vinyl and CD, 611 Records carries tons of tracks from the latest to the most obscure DJs/artists from the US and Europe. The constant beat of music is in your every step while you browse through the store. The atmosphere is awesome and the staff really knows their music.

I recently visited here with toddlers and managed to keep them there for nigh on three hours -- anybody who has toddlers know that's a miracle! The different floors made it exciting and they LOVED "Inside Out" which was the special children's section; they got to pet a snake, lizard, rabbit, and tortoise and couldn't stop talking about the bees! There was an accessible elevator for the stroller, and a lunchroom where you could buy, or bring food to eat. For adults, they have very informative plaques on the animals and explorers.
Pros: Fun for kids
Cons: Bathrooms were tricky to get into with stroller

Aka is competing with the likes of Tower and, in my opinion, they kick arse. Located in Olde City, this little joint is a real gem. If I am not able to find what I want, they are able to get it for me. They have a wide selection of new and used music and there is generally something cool playing while you shop. I have sold some cd's and they give a fair price -- store credit or cash. The prices are reasonable which is commendable for a non retail giant.

My husband is a member of the bowling league. This is a nice family place to bowl, But one big draw back, is the smoking. The place fills up quickly with lots of smoke and my husband comes home smelling like an ashtray on league nights. But, this is a very fun, low cost way to have a family night out. Very Friendly and lots of other activites for the kids.

Set dance lessons are also offered Wednesday evenings. I've not taken formal lessons, but the teachers seem pretty patient and understanding about people like me who don't know what they're doing. Everyone's friendly and wants to ensure you have a good time; they'll encourage you and guide you. my friends and i wanted to learn some latin dance so we went and took lessons at amla. they had many competent dance teachers and they were very helpful in getting us to master the moves. it was also a place where we made quite a few friends. they took a very hands on approach and thats what helped us a lot.

I had one of the best experiences I have ever had at the Arden Theater. I got last-minute rush tickets for $5 each to Proof. The seats were fantastic. It’s a small theater, so most are. It was an incredible production. I love the play and had high standards, but they were actually exceeded by this theater.
