Food Scene

Every one of my Airbnb guests has eaten at this restaurant - it is on my block - and been thoroughly impressed. Great mashed potatoes, soups, and pictures of Communist leaders.

Friendly owners. Friendly staff. Is it a coffee shop? Is it a restaurant? Is it a bar? Is is a sports bar? Is it an art gallery? Is it a music venue? It's a very local hangout.

One of my guests recently mentioned Stable and I never think to recommend it, but it is a lovely place to have coffee and lunch. They do meals too. And a lovely outdoor seating area.
