Essentials

4 minute walk from the house, with organic foods and a great help-yourself kind of food bar. It's expensive, but good. What you'd expect from Whole Foods

Drinks & Nightlife

British style pub with darts, etc. While I can't honestly recommend their food, they have an amazing beer selection and the atmosphere is very British. Dark wood, darts, and the like.

The Ambassador gets mention because they offer KARAOKE nightly. It's got a fun retro vibe, and you can always get up on stage without too much of a wait. Fun place to go for sure, and they offer inexpensive American style Chinese food specials.

Wine bar with nice ambience, serving small plates and wine tasting. Live music until 7 or 8pm (I think). I've never actually been in, but it looks like a quaint place to have a glass of wine!

Recently opened bar with live music nightly. The Know definitely has a grittier, darker vibe, and the bands are generally will match that. There is usually a cover charge under $10, I think depending on when you walk in.

Food Scene

Because it's a killer burger! And their fries are amazing. Warning - one burger can probably feed two people. They put bacon on every burger, and if you're feeling daring their peanut butter bacon burger is quite rich (though not my favorite).

Tasty, fresh sushi in a comfortable, more traditional Japanese space. Not the cheapest, but a solid choice for sushi within walking distance.
