I’ve always really liked La Crosse, I’m from the area, and it has much more culture than the surrounding towns: This is a nice town, it has it’s own feel to it — the “historic downtown” is very cool, especially Pearl Street. Lots of great hang-out places, like Jules’ Coffee House and the Bodega Brew Pub; Good restaurants, too — if you plan on visiting, the Freighthouse, Hackberry’s Bistro, Piggy’s, and Fayze’s are all really nice, and relatively cheap…I think that La Crosse is definitely worth visiting.
