Housed in a crumbling former state schoolhouse near the Workers' Stadium, the striking, design-driven watering hole and accompanying restaurants (Lan Na Thai and the Indian Hazara) cost $1.9 million to develop.

Savory crepes, hot entrées, and breakfast anytime distinguish Z Square from any other aesthetically chic but otherwise average eatery. The sandwich menu consists of the favorites with a gourmet flare—the curried chutney chicken salad on sourdough is strikingly tasty.
