Ginger is modern asian-fusion restaurant. I enjoy meeting friends in the bar area, which also has small tables facing the street. Delicious appetizers, great mixed drinks and a really fun atmosphere. The decor is contemporary and acoustics good for hosting a larger group. I take clients to the dining side of the restaurant for a different experience. You'll love the food, but it's also a great place to meet friend prior to a night on the town.

This brewery is fairly new -- established in 2016. However, there was a brewery there before. The location is fantastic. With a table on the roof, you will have the most beautiful view of the inlet. On a sunny day in the summer, you won't want to leave the rooftop deck. Be sure to make reservations or call in advance because the deck is busy during the summer months.

Perfect mix of dive bar, champagne and oysters! They have a great selection of oysters and a wide variety of champagnes. This is a local spot and I emphasize "dive bar," because you shouldn't be surprised that it's small and dark. I meet my girlfriends here often and love it.
