Exploring Niles

Posted on Tuesday, January 22, 2013










B and I often find ourselves in the Fremont/Niles area and so this past weekend we decided to explore the Niles area a bit more. I am on a hunt for a working record player and read in the local bay area paper that the Niles mom and pop record shop "Needle to the Groove" was the place to check out. We walked down from the hills and along the main thoroughfare which is most widely recognized for being a hot spot for Charlie Chaplin silent films back in the day. Niles has character in quirky houses, unusual architecture and quite an admirable selection of craft beers in their corner supermarket. Drank coffee at Niles Cafe and then walked back along the railroad tracks and enjoyed a new-to-me brewsky on the balcony overlooking the Niles canyon and surrounding hillsides.
