Cafe Niche is a modern neighborhood restaurant just blocks from downtown Salt Lake City and on the TRAX line. Stylish and affordable, it is a favorite with locals. The cuisine is cutting edge, but approachable, local, natural, fresh and honest, that shines in the inspired small plates presentations and more traditional fare. A true "local'secret." In summer, diners can enjoy Niche's flower-laden patio. Amazing American-Cafe style food awaits, from the mushroom scramble at brunch, to the famous Sonoma chicken salad at lunch or Chef Andy' Morrison's pineapple and soy glazed salmon for dinner. A thoughtful and wide-ranging wine list and cocktail program complements Chef's bright cuisine.

The Living Room trail is a must-do hike located right in the heart of downtown with a beautiful overlook of Salt Lake City.

This popular, well-trafficked hike is perfect for anyone looking to get outdoors but that still wants to remain close to the city. Its infamous name comes from the red rock "couches" & "chairs" that can be found at the end of the hike, where you can sit and enjoy a snack or beverage while overlooking the city. Located in the foothills of Salt Lake, right above The Natural History Museum of Utah, The Living Room Hike is a must-try hike for anyone visiting! It is an out-and-back trail that will take you approximately 1.5-3 hours hiking time, and is doable for any level hiker.

**Author’s recommendation**  
If you're feeling adventurous, bring a headlight and head up to watch sunset from the best living room in town!

**Tips and suggestions**  
It can be incredibly hot in the summer months to hike this trail as there is direct sunlight and no cool canyon air. Be on the lookout for rattlesnakes and other wildlife, and always keep your distance from the animals. Ideal times to hike are spring or fall. If you enjoy winter hiking, it is a great trail to experience (you may even get lucky and see moose during less crowded winter months)

Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.

The Man Who Came to Dinner by Moss Hart and George S. KaufmanDecember 4-19, 2026Meldrum Theatre at the Einar Nielsen Field HousePlayWhen famously acerbic radio personality Sheridan Whiteside slips on an icy doorstep and finds himself convalescing in a respectable Ohio home just before Christmas, he quickly turns polite holiday hospitality into full-blown pandemonium. As friends, eccentrics, aspiring actors, and assorted hangers-on descend upon the house, Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman’s The Man Who Came to Dinner unfolds into a whirlwind of sharp wit, romantic entanglements, and delightfully outsized characters. A true classic of American comedy, it’s a brisk, laugh-filled holiday treat with just the right touch of mischief.This calendar listing is brought to you by NowPlayingUtah.com, Utah's one-stop, online website for arts and entertainment events, powered by the Utah Cultural Alliance.
