Whether you’re full of spirits or simply need to get out of the house, The Indie on Main (1228 Main St.) has Karaoke Friday from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. If you can’t make it this Friday, there is always next Friday. Should you need liquid courage, The Indie has a Horsefeather made with Bulleit Bourbon or a Dutch Mule (vodka, ginger beer, lime juice and bitters).

Ruby Jean’s opened its third location earlier this week. The juicery debuted a stand inside of the Price Chopper at 500 NE Barry Road. Ruby Jean’s also has locations at 3000 Troost and 1111 Main St. Consider starting with the Vine Street Greens (pictured above).
