Dogtown is part bar, part restaurant. Don't go here for a quiet meal. This is the place to go if you want a fun atmosphere with live music (loud!). They make delicious pizza in a wood-fired pizza oven. The deck is the place to be on Friday nights, as it overlooks Lineberry Park where kids play, and musicians gather. You can enjoy a pizza, craft beer, and meet people. Beautiful sunsets!

Parks & Nature
Iconic Floyd mountain. Buffalo Mountain looks like the profile of a buffalo. The access road to the trail head isn't well maintained. You don't need four wheel drive, but a good amount of clearance is recommended. The hike is relatively short, and ends at the top of Buffalo Mountain. Go for an evening hike and enjoy the sunset from the top of the world.
