Grab a Cache and Maybe a Bite to Eat - Willow Glen Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

bykenut: Was planning on putting a replacement cache here, but looks like the gardeners are keeping the place very clean, so this new cache will probably go MIA very soon as well. Guess it's time to archive this cache.

This has been one of my favorite caches, as I enjoyed reading where folks grabbed a bite to eat while in the area. Thanks to all who visited!

Geocache Description:

Easy urban hide with many eating establishments nearby.

I always enjoy finding caches near eating districts, as I tend to get hungry after, and many times during, a day of caching. Sometimes I'll eat at one of my favorite restaurants; sometimes I'll try something new. Sometimes I just want to grab a quick bite so I can continue caching; sometimes I want a sit down dinner.

Downtown Willow Glen is a 0.7 mile long neighborhood shopping district in San Jose which contains about 300 businesses. Here you will find a variety of restaurants ranging from old style diners to delis to coffee houses to ice cream shops to pizza to bistros. On Saturday mornings between April and November, you can shop at their farmer's market.

If you do grab a bite to eat before or after grabbing this cache, please mention it in your log. It will be fun to see what folks ate or drank while in the area.

The cache is in a small 2" x 4" x 6" Rubbermaid container with a black lid. Initial contents include a geocaching note, logbook, pen, some small food related trinkets (you don't need to stick to the theme), and a Susan B Anthony dollar for FTF.
