31 King St EGreat fun restaurant with patio and often times live music. Cobourg is a neat little town. Their beach is amazing as well and they have a great historic, lovely downtown with many shops and restaurants to explore.
It's a quaint nice place to grab a drink. Limited menu, maybe only 3 items available, but delicious. Check out their website beforehand or call to find out when they have live music! I went for a jazz night there and it was comparable to Chicago, but with small town County people in attendance. Quite the combo! Very social.
