We LOVE this place because it is within walking distance, its quaint and the food is really good. Its only open until 3, so they specialize in breakfast and lunch. It's a tiny menu and all the seating is outdoors. it's on Division Street, the walk will give you a bit of exercise (up and down some hills) but its worth it.

If you are around on Saturday or Sunday and plan on eating in the apartment, you can get the BEST GRILLED CHICKEN & RIBS at the Super A down the street. They cook the meat outside and I cannot describe it any other way than, AWESOME! Its VERY AFFORDABLE too. Be aware, they cook from 12pm to 5pm on Saturdays & Sundays only.
You have to go through the checkout inside, tell them what you want, (chicken, whole or 1/2 or Ribs or tri-tip roast). You pay for it, get a receipt & bring it outside. the man will cut it up for you too. Leave a tip ;)
Its only good for take away. You can go to the deli in the back and get some side dishes too.

There are many of these around the city. Its great because you can get high-end clothing for low-end prices. Although they are more selective when it comes to the items they sell, its still a second hand clothing store.
