Cal-Harbor Restaurant is the stalwart eatery in Pullman. For almost 40 years, they've been famous for their breakfast...and there's even regulars that drive from Michigan just to have their hashbrowns. Oh, and don't forget, there's a lounge here, too...in case you're thirsty.

Dig It! Pullman is the wonderfully quirky shop full of trinkets from the 1880's or so until the 1980's. You'd be hard pressed to not find something you'll want to take home.

And, to cap off your visit..what would you expect from this neighborhood lost in time than the most laid back of neighborhood bars? Pullman Pub (referred to by the locals as "Umberto's", after the owner's name) is comfortable, low key, and you're guaranteed to strike up a conversation with a longtime resident or two who can tell you first-hand stories of Pullman. When films such as "The Fugitive" and "The Untouchables" were filmed in this area, Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, and Sean Connery all threw back a few with the regulars.
