Good coffee. Selection of sandwiches-- I find them a bit pricey for sammy's, but they're good. Nice chill atmosphere. They sometimes have music or arts events in an intimate setting upstairs.

It burnt down, but they are doing take out while they rebuild. I prefer the take out anyway because the portions are larger. One of my fave Indian restaurants. Can be pricey, but take out is affordable.

This is a MUST if you like ice cream. They started out as a corner store, but then started making their own ice cream and haven't looked back since. Gotta love the cow themed building too!

Most of their dishes are medium quality fare with the exception of the nachos. Get the ULTIMATE LAYERED NACHOS. Best I have had anywhere in my travels. Chicken, Bean, Barbacoa beef, guacamole, salsa, olives, jalapeños, mushrooms. This is a meal for two. We actually took leftovers home last time. Make sure you ask for "Layered"

Good Breakfast menu. We usually went for breakfast, but I'd think their lunches would stand up as well. Affordable. The is close to the Craft Council (Devon House gift shop) if you want to combine an outing and check out the gift shop.

Drinks & Nightlife

Authentic pub. Good beer. In my mind one of the best breakfasts in St. John's (open for weekend brunch). Great fish and chips served daily till 8pm. Yes, this is the real pub that was recreated for the hit television series Republic of Doyle.

Another famous pub. Serves a dynamite lunch. I don't know if they do dinners. This is a fave music venue for folk, rock and even some experimantal vibes. Service can be a little slow at times... It's a pub where the bartender is also the waiter. They'll get to ya. And that's their speed. But it's great.

This is just a little father down Merrymeeting Road. One of our long standing independent grocers. They have better basic produce than Sobfeys, but have a small selection. I go there for the broccoli and check out the deal of chicken and meats.

A little father away, close to Quidi Vidi Lake. This building used to be Memorial Stadium, the hockey rink. I like the variety in the produce section... sometimes. You might find you need to combine grocery stores to get exactly what you need.
