4. Shaughnessy's Irish Pub
Extensive selection of Irish whiskey and beer
Shaughnessy's Irish Pub is a trendy spot housed in a historic hotel, offering fabulous drink specials and a diverse beer and wine menu. The pub's layout provides a balance between spaciousness and intimate seating options. Despite the attentive service, the dining experience fell short. Menu items like the Nashville chicken sandwich, kids' macaroni and cheese, French onion soup, chips and guacamole, and salad left much to be desired. For a more satisfying meal, I highly suggest trying Al n Angus located just a stone's throw away.

10. Three Lives
Local, ethically-sourced coffee and community events
Three Lives was an interesting experience.I didn't know what to expect with its game theme and what it would be like.My initial image was a more gaming-focused experience versus a first restaurant experience.
We had a great time here.As a player for years, I really enjoyed all the great drinks and options.They were fun, great flavor, and different from anywhere else.The food was good but it was shadowed by the atmosphere.It had a lot of video game parts and equipment with some DnD mixed in.We will be back.Keep up the great work.
