Gastropub and bar only two blocks away. It gets packed with a night time drinking crowd on the weekends (which can be fun) - but also worth checking out for its fantastic brunch and dinner menu.

Did you just walk into a sacred and holy space?! Well kind of... but it's a bar and restaurant. Great place for group hangouts and ambiance. The food is good but not the best around, but the scenery..
