New Impressions Tile

Step “back in the day” to a time when having a cocktail was an experience to be savored. The Marquis Cocktail Lounge still remembers that era, and keeps the tradition of class and distinction very much alive in this charmingly laid-back nightlife venue. There's always relaxing, jazzy music playing and the people here are friendly but smart enough to give you your own space if you would rather just ease back and take it all in. This is a great place for a first date or meeting with a few friends for drinks and conversation.

If your kids like to run around, or maybe they are at the age where they still like to play sports with dad, then plan a day at San Bernardino's La Plaza Park. This is an impressive play space attraction that sprawls out over two acres. It features several park benches and picnic tables as well as a picturesque gazebo where mom and dad can rest in the shade while the kids play ball, enjoy the playground rides, or just run around until they are all out of energy!

The Big Bear Solar Observatory proves to be as mighty and impressive as its name. This facility was originally built back in 1965 by the California Institute of Technology and is now maintained by the New Jersey Institute of Technology. It has the distinction of being one of only six solar observatories in the world, plus the added attraction of being located on an island in the center of a lake in the San Bernardino Mountains. The location proves to be ideal for looking heavenward as there is minimal pollution, the skies are typically clear, and the airflow is smooth, making for great views that are nothing less than stunning.

When the only thing that will rescue you from that feeling of being sleepy and being tired is a good strong cup of coffee, let DJ's come to your rescue! For years, d.j. Coffee Shop in San Bernardino has been keeping patrons alert in style thanks to their enjoyably strong blend of coffee. But when you come in for your cup of joe, don't stop there. DJ's also offers an excellent menu of breakfast, lunch and dinner items that are all served in a charmingly vintage diner setting.
