One of our favorites! They don't take reservations - be prepared to put your name down on their waitlist and go find a drink somewhere else. They will text you when your table is ready. The best French restaurant in town!

Our local watering hole just minutes from the suite! They have a great assortment of pub fare, beers, wines, etc. We often wander down to the Fernwood Inn for a beer on their patio.

If you are interested in trying oysters, make sure you stop by Ferris'. They offer raw oysters, baked, panko crusted, you name it, they've got it! They have a big menu with lots to choose from if you're not interested in oysters. Another one of our staples to take guests to.

Our favorite bakery in town! Slightly out of the way if you don't have a car, but worth the venture. Grab a muffin and coffee and walk down to Willows Beach to enjoy one of the city's favorite beaches - summer or winter!
