It looks like the sun is actually making an appearance, so we can all start pretending it’s summer for five minutes and enjoy these places to beat the heat…or in our case, stay out of the rain.

The Jane Ballroom is impressively adorned with antique area rugs, old fashioned wing chairs, a grand fireplace, and enormous velvet-draped windows. Décor aside, the drinks menu has some pretty fun concoctions, specialty cocktails like the Hedwig and the Punjab are among a few of them.
