Soul Friend and Shopping

Soul Friend and Shopping

This budget-friendly tour suggestion is for those in your groups who like quaint restaurants and unique shopping opportunities.  Especially when they are within walking distance!  Welcome to Anam Cara Café and Reclaimed Artisans. 

Reclaimed Artisans Inc. is close to 11,000 square feet of unique items from about 100 vendors.  Spend time browsing the custom furniture, jewelry, candles, seasonal items and more.  Each time you visit, the products are different. 

And a quarter of a mile away is Anam Cara Café which means “soul friend”.  Their goal is to provide a place for people to catch up, have a laugh, & be with friends—old and new.

Perfect for groups of the smaller size – the private dining room at Anam Cara seats up to 20 people. 

If your group hasn’t quite quenched their thirst for goodies and shopping, we suggest visiting more shops on MainStreet Libertyville, about 2 miles away. 

To finish off the day, The Joyful Gourmet can set up small wine tastings in their store. 

The Parched Pug has a self-pour craft beer and wine wall along with over 200 board games to pass away the afternoon with laughs and giggles. And if the weather is nice, they have a waterfall on the patio, just saying.
