A local, down-to-earth cafe with an arty vibe. We miss their crepes, though, (big time), and are appealing to the universe that they bring them back someday. Until then, good coffee and a chill atmosphere.

BENCHMARK recommendation. Nobody, anywhere, uses the quality ingredients that this lady does. And she's a perfectionist, which means it always looks right and tastes mind-blowing. Cookies, ice creams, cupcakes- depends on the season. Summertime it's just the most amazing ice cream, due to its got-more-cream-than-anybody else philosophy. (I think it's pushing 18-20%). Do yourself an indulgence and Do. This. Thing.

BENCHMARK bakery. Breads, pastries, and bistro fare that will stay on your mind for a very long time. Early morning is a great time to watch the bakers do their thing. An art, a science, that's edible. Pre-Covid I usually saw a child or two sitting at the counter talking to the bakers while they shaped the loaves. Most times the kids were given some dough to knead along with them. Cool to see them sharing their passion with the younger generations.

Dosalas sets a high bar for dedication to good food & quality surroundings. Spendy, but worth it for the tapas, the cocktails, and the view. We recommend getting reservations for the outside as well as planning on spending some money- two tapas per person is plenty, but you'll probably want to order more because they are so tasty. Definitely the more people you go with the better the experience. At the time we visited they were still developing a Happy Hour menu; with their commitment to being a destination spot we're confident it'll be worth checking out, too.

Finally, a place that puts enough acoustic paneling in an industrial-chic setting that actually works. You can actually have a conversation with the people you're with- even in the bar. The food is also so good! The house specialties are just that, and the kitchen crew know how to prepare the seafood right. Definitely get reservations in the evening, and ask for the window tables or outside near the fire tables and/or heaters. When you go, for sure use a navigation app because this place is tucked away off the beaten path.

Been in the neighborhood for a long time for good reasons. Still on my mind are the pork loin, the lasagna, and the great sights in the deli case. Pretty casual spot, worth checking out.
