This former elementary school has been converted into its own little wonderland of pubs, a movie theater, restaurant, music venue and hotel. There's even an outdoor soaking pool open to the public until 6pm - large enough for adults to soak and little ones to swim, warm enough to do it even when it's chilly out. Hint: Stop by one of the bars first for a cocktail or one of McMenamin's brews to take in the pool with you.
