You can get breakfast, lunch and dinner here - very casual (order at the counter) but lots of indoor and outdoor space to sit and eat and it has a great vibe. I typically go for breakfast or brunch but their pot pie is pretty wonderful.

If you are looking for one of the best spots in the city - this is a great date night spot - but fills up quickly and is pricey. But you can walk. They have counter spots that you can pop into if you would like to try without a reservation.

This place is known city-wide for their breakfast and their famous millionaire bacon. Come early to make sure to get a table or grab a mimosa while you wait! Lines after 8:30/9am can take up to an hour

At the very least pop in for a drink - this is in high demand and for a reason. It is a fabulous restaurant that offers a nightly pre-fixed menu in the main restaurant, but you can pick off of it if you sit in the lounge/bar area.

This is the best bakery in town - hands down. Run by a Frenchman and a Chinese woman = people come from all over the city (literally) to stand in line for their incredible selections. Get there a bit early (before 9am) to avoid the lines, or just embrace the wait and know you will be rewarded. We are spoiled it is so close to us.

Great spot to catch a sports game and drinks/apps. It is affordable and a bit more of an upscale "sports bar"

Take a step back in time. Always make sure they are open and call for live music schedule, but this is a wonderful venue for some live piano music and a stiff whiskey drink or martini.

This is the closest one to our home, you can walk it, but coming home is not ideal. I suggest Lyft or the bus.
