Itinerary for a Girlfriends Getaway
Sometimes you need to gather your besties and take off for a few days of shopping, dining and pampering. Vacation starts bright and early at the number one farmers' market in the nation -- the Overland Park Farmers' Market in Downtown OP. You'll find everything from a hot cup of coffee to lavender soaps made from a local lavender farm. Head a little bit south and have brunch at Louie’s Wine Dive, complete with a mouthwatering menu and “almost never-ending” carafes of mimosas.
Keep the indulgence going at Milagro Midwestern Spa and Collective, a full-service spa that offers massage and skin treatments. Did we mention that for an additional $5, you can add a slice of pie from downtown Overland Park’s The Upper Crust pie shop? When your appetite starts to ramp up, sit down and share a charcuterie board at Sage Bites where they make their own cheese and butter in-house.
Next stop— Prairiefire’s Primp and Blow, a blow dry bar, to get ready for a night on the town. Then, shop ‘til you drop at fashion-forward boutiques like FitWear Boutique, Kindred, and Threshing Bee.

Flavorful dishes, killer handcrafted cocktails, great music and a colorful atmosphere combine for a fun meal at this cantina. Take advantage of the beautiful outdoor patio.
Prairiefire offers several tempting dinner options but first grab a quick cocktail at Veritas Whiskey and Wine or the Wine Bunker for a wine flight. When you're ready for dinner, walk to the delightfully vibrant Coco Bolos or southern-centric Brass Onion.
Head to Strang Hall's outdoor patio and bar to end the evening on a relaxing note. You'll find yard games at Strang Hall's lawn and then take a walk through Downtown OP where you'll be sure to catch some live music any time of the year.
