For the urban cowboy (or cowgirl) in everyone, there's the Brandin' Iron Saloon and Dance Hall. This charmingly rustic nightlife spot is one of those places that could have been the setting for the famous “Urban Cowboy” movie. The venue features various live country bands, dance lessons and the ever-popular mechanical bull that always attracts plenty of takers. There is also a delicious dinner menu available, too.
The fun and down-home charm of a county fair is alive and well thanks to the San Bernardino County Fair that runs from late July to early August. This family-fun event features everything from prize pigs to excellent live music, games, and lots of other great activities.
The Eco Thrift Store in San Bernardino makes looking for bargains a really fun experience. Whether you are searching for clothes, housewares, or other household items, you will find a tremendously inviting selection of items here in this area favorite. Gently used children's clothes and accessories, shoes and even formal attire can all be found here, as well. The store relies on donations from area residents, which means that the selection is constantly changing, so it is well worth it to visit often to find the best deals.
