Excellent Shows, Music, People! Amazing Art class offerings all while sipping your favorite adult beverage!

We ate at the Wheel Barrow. Great sandwich. They have a lovely patio area. The buildings are old & have been restored to some fin shops & eating places. Will go again for more exploring.

You have no ideal what you are missing. The atmosphere is phenomenal. Take a trip down there. You will not regret it .

A awesome change along the whole strip compared to what it used to be . Love the change its for the better. Keep it going.

Awesome new spaces and venues!!

I love this little artsy hidden gem in N. Topeka! Great vibe, chill atmosphere, fun shops, plenty of variety, a few places to grab a beer and a burger, what else could you ask for?

10 years later and still working on becoming the star of Topeka. Keep it up NOTO you are getting there.

Love NOTO theyre the best place to find antiques and locally made items.

You have to love North Topeka its come a long ways since I was a kid

Went to Donaldsons Jewelers to drop off a ring for sizing. Said it would only take 2 days, which is a lot better then going to a big pushy store who says sizing takes about a week or two!

Great place to get out, walk around, shop and get a bite to eat or drink... You can walk you dogs around the sidewalks and parks too.

So many arts and crafts to see plus great food and antiques

Love it! Go and Shop all the fun stores and restaurants ️

This place has transformed into such a wonderful place, something for everyone here!

First Fridays are fun. Variety

I love that this small business area of Topeka is thriving. There is so much art to experience here. Lots of antiques in old buildings with character; a brewery, diner, and restaurant too. First Fridays are always an experience.

Lots of fun shops, some great food, and great beer.

Fun shops, great addition to community

Not much happening during the weekdaysIts more of a Friday or Saturday time

Promtes Art and supports artist.

Super cute stuff. I was told that its even better when the weather is warmer. Cant wait to experience that! Im ready to give it that 5th star!

Charming area of town with unique shops. Very busy during the first Friday of the month, and a couple of the charming stores are only open one weekend a month, but its fun to visit and has great food options.

If you want to relax and sightseeing. It is good place to go. They have many great antique stores and art gallery.

I love this area. My favorite spot so far has been Studio 62. Pride over flows there.

The murals are worth the drive around

Fun little shopping area with a few food choices and bars. First Friday of the month is the best time to go.

Nice to shop in Mom and Pop stores instead of Corp chains. This part of America needs to become stronger and stronger.

Awesome environment. This is essential to cleaning up the area and revitalizing downtown

I love what topeka is doing with this. I approve and will give money to this place. Shouts out to wheel barrel best sandwiches in all topeka so far! Go for the hangover sandwich.

Awesome experience!

Had lunch at Bradleys Corner Cafe. Very good food and lots of it. Especially like their pies.

Great arts district with lots of history and new places to explore! Great shops, restaurants, night life, and an all around great scene.

My brother Dans shop is there

Unique example of how good things can happen when a community comes together

Lots to see and take in. Small district but good variety of merchandise and food/drink options

Had a great experience eating here and looking at all the art. The Friday art walk is really fun to go to on the first Friday of every month. The wheelbarrow is really good to go eat anytime of the month though. Noto burrito is also a really good place to eat. How to find shopping for antique things.

NOTO Shows the true Topeka! Amazing food, art and shopping. Thank you NOTO for showing everyone that Topeka is more than just the Wanamaker Chain!

Part of Topeka that needs more attention. Trying to revive a very important part of Topeka history but the city would rather spend millions on downtown that is boring and nobody vists except to work

It has pleasant folks. They could use outside food vendors during special events.

So pretty

Very interesting Zoo Art using animals paw prints from the Topeka Zoo. Other Art was amazing pottery which I really enjoyed, paintings and lots of interesting exhibits. Worth a visit!

I like the vibes in the NOTO area. Its always a great time. There is always something going on to support local.artists of all kinds. Thanks Topeka for doing something right.

Nice part of old Topeka

NOTO has really bloomed in the last year. We like Stutzman Leather, Norseman Brewing and the cool new bookstore.

A little pricey but the food seemed decent. You can find booze everywhere, each shop has its own theme too.But not all of these special events that are scheduled happen even if you sprint there, and the behaviors of the establishments real hit and miss. As in they dont like small wallets.

Fun place to stop! Tried a couple restaurants and enjoyed the experience. Free parking right outside and many open spots.

Q great way to spend an evening the 1st of every month.

Went to Bradleys today excellent service and delicious food.

Very nice area wish we couldve spend more time there.

Lots to admire and band at Compass Point was great! People so nice all around great fun.

The Topeka Arts district has made huge strides in the last several years. Great Topeka accomplishment.

Love the progress cant wait to see more buisnisess come

Beautiful atmosphere

Its really good everything is healthy and it genially taste good.

Lots to see and do. Good food places.

Love the place! It is Well kept, there is very friendly staff that always seems happy to help with any questions or concerns. location is kept clean and tidy. Parking availability and accessibility was great had no problems finding and assessing parking, as with the inside, the outside of the premises was kept nice and clean, location is easy to find, typically always able to get right in when needed and if needed get right out. Overall very pleasurable experience and would recommend to anyone.

Starting to grow and getting better.

Great place to shop and eat... Fun shops and art.

This place is amazing .... NOTO district giving us a reason to love North Topeka again

Great environment and lovely place to support lots of local businesses!

My Hubs and I took a couple of photos over there the day he asked me if we could make our common-law marriage a fancy paper one! Lol, but seriously, there are some FANTASTIC changes being made up North, and that makes me proud! When you cross over the Kansas Ave or Topeka Blvd bridges and end up in NOTO, it will boggle the mind at the transformation that has been taking place. The people are AMAZING here. And dont let the homeless folks that frequent the shelter on the other side of the tracks scare you away - in fact I plead with our city to go and volunteer your time to help out the Topeka Rescue Mission & Hope Center, which I briefly lived at when I didnt have a home or protection to call my own. You can even go and eat a meal there during community mealtimes, and the nightly chapel services are a cycle of different denominations that take their time to come out and preach to us there. If story telling is your thing, grab a flyer and go to the NOTO district and participate in one of Story Slams they have there - prizes can be won and it is a fantastic time! So much more to do, youll just have to come out and walk the district!

Really a cool place, original art items.

Wish there were more stores of better quality

Great food. Excellent service.

I love this place you never know what or who you find here.. LOL

Very friendly and creative atmosphere!! Variety of business to explore and enjoy

I grew up in North Topeka and wish the arts district would have been established when I was a kid. Its now a great place to bring your family with plenty of unique shops, things to see and items to purchase. Great place to find gifts for that hard to buy for person.

Just beautiful!!

Cool area. The Norseman Brewery is great. They need another restaurant. The Wheel Barrel and Brads are nice, but small and crowded

Always something to experience!

As a native Topekan, Im thrilled to see all of the unique shops and activities that are available here. Its eclectic, fun, and great for all ages.

NOTO is very diverse. Thats one of the main reasons I love this place

The brewery is a great stop.

Busy and artfull

A great place to spend a few hours. My wife loves antique shopping and there is plenty at NOTO. There is also a good selection of restaurants and bars to have a bite and a drink why taking a break from shopping.

Noto Burrito I Loved the way they have Mexican food that is not the same ol food. Burritos come with Fresh meat, and freshly made as you order.

A really cool gallery and art classes in a historic post office building. Beautifully renovated.

I love mural. The legendary pictures of the men that painted on the wall, I miss them they sacrificed their lives for us all to be treated as equals not slaves or to be someones elses propertys.

Gets better with every new business

Nice place to walk around and see the artwork and have a nice cold beer

Overall this is a ridiculously pretentious place, the employees seemed to be trying to insult the patrons. We will not be back!

$1 tacos,75 c to take out,$2 for water just brought 5 cs for $2.

Great place to visit. Always something interesting

I liked being there. I need to spend more time exploring NOTO.

We especially like to go here for First Friday’s. But there are still come places open other days of the month.

Warm friendly area. Enjoyed handcrafted beer at Norsemen, delicious raspberry pie at Brads and a yummy jalapeno popper sandwich at the Wheel Barrel. Great way to spend date night.

Quaint.

Great place to go and shop, eat, and drink.

Love that theyre actually making this happen!!!

Lots of great shops and friendly atmosphere

Fun place lots to do

Nice small shops.

Nice night with a couple good friends

Ive been to several first Fridays and have enjoyed it immensely. There are all kinds of stores to patronize. Each with their own treasures that are off the beaten path. Plenty of things to see and The Norseman tavern is there with crafted brew and food too! Also Noto Burrito is located there so if you are hungry for several first rate burritos to choose from, stop in and meet the people there. You will enjoy the works of art, the artists, and the scene in general.

Cool place that represents the creative folks in topeka. Revitalizing NOTO one piece of art at a time

I love it! Lots of fun !!

Great like it was in the 50s and 60s

Prices too high. Product not that good

Attended event in noto, very good experience.

All my wildest dreams came true there
