Seasonal. Best lunch place in town (if you like fish), great fish and chips but try the other menu items too. Outside seating only, plan to line up on sunny days!

Fantastic - will not fail to impress. Classic food, romantic atmosphere includes a priceless collection of contemporary art. Not as expensive as you'd think.

My favourite spot on the pickle pub crawl. Off the tourist track yet one of the best waterfront views. Food is simple - I suggest the pizza.

There is actually a decent restaurant "dining room" here - if you are not afraid of eating next to political history - note: if the Legislature is sitting, it will only open to the public at odd times of day.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is actually a beer parlor. Like a British pub there is no table service no TVs or loud music - great for a conversation over a microbrew or three
