Relaxing Sauna Experience

During my stay at St. James Social, I took advantage of the sauna, which was a fantastic way to unwind after a day of exploring. The cold plunge shower inside the sauna was an exhilarating touch, making it my favorite sauna experience in the Midwest!

Delicious Wood-Fired Pizza

I had an very nice experience dining at St. James Social with their wood-fired pizza night! I indulged in 'the socialite', which featured mozzarella, arugula, and locally inspired ingredients, all drizzled with balsamic. It was a perfect meal to share with a friend.
