Kid-friendlyBeer + wine

A bar tucked behind Main Street, just off the main path, that also serves coffee. Quaint vibes — eclectic, low-key, the kind of spot you find on your second walk downtown. House-baked goods, live music Friday and Saturday nights, weekly trivia and karaoke. Owners Adam and Natasha.

"Tucked away behind Main Street, often accessed via an alleyway… feeling like a special discovery."
