The Front Yard Spring Block Party
The Garland hotel’s hidden-in-plain-sight Front Yard restaurant is already one of the Valley’s best spots for weekend brunch. This weekend, though, it’s kicking things up a notch with an afternoon block party, where you can enjoy live music, a pop-up “shopping soiree” featuring a curated selection of vendors, bites of the Front Yard’s California cuisine, and beer and wine tastings. Proceeds benefit nonprofit sanctuary Best Friends Animal Society.
