Whether you need to “wine down” or schedule some “shopping therapy,” a sweet escape with the girls is the perfect excuse to unplug and enjoy some time together! Keep scrolling to read about all the fun and fabulous goodness you and your best gals can look forward to in Shawnee, Oklahoma, when you visit for a day or a weekend.
Shawnee shopping boasts unique boutiques and the big brands you know. Stroll Downtown Shawnee for arts, fashion, home décor, and gifts. A few can’t miss include Cuckoo Bird & Dashing T for fashion you can't find anywhere else; Savvy Bites has kitchen equipment and gadgets; Okie Dokie Mercantile features Made In Oklahoma and Native American made items. The Shawnee Mall features the national brands you love.
If you plan a trip on the right weekend, you can enjoy one of the markets or craft fairs. Junk Utopia and Sassy Dames both host markets regularly at the Heart of Oklahoma Expo Center.
If your crew loves to thrift, you have to check out the nearly dozen places to find antique treasures and vintage clothing and furniture across the city. Check out the full list here.
If you and the girls need pampering, book your relaxing time at the Lifestyle Day Spa for a day of pampering and relaxation.
More active activities could include art classes at one of Shawnee’s many galleries, exploring the Mabee-Gerrer Museum of Art and the Citizen Potawatomi Nation Cultural Heritage Center, or the outdoors. Parks and trails are a plenty in Shawnee. Shawnee's Twin Lakes lets you get out on the water, and you can even rent a kayak from Kayak Cove on the weekends!
Breaks from the fun include dining on the local flavor.
The Lunch Box serves gourmet sandwiches, soups, and salads. Owl Shoppe also has gourmet sandwiches, soups, and salads. The Owl’s seafood lunch specials are unlike any other. Italian? Frateli’s (currently remodeling). More upscale dining can be found at Theopolis Social Club. Their executive chef provides a fresh rotating menu of thoughtfully-constructed meals and appetizers featuring local ingredients.
Theopolis is also one of the night-life spots. Live music is performed at the Club. Additional live music spots include the Brickhouse Saloon and the Guitar Vault. Vibes (located inside Brickhouse) has DJs mixing the perfect dance mix!
