Great arty area loaded with murals, restaurants, bars, and breweries, and unique and vintage shops. Favorite restaurants are Mantra(a bit out of the main Benson area), Au Quarant for a special night. They have an amazing 7 course tasting menu with optional wine pairings. 1912 which is more of a bar than a restaurant with an amazing rooftop deck. They have a great brunch and a good selection of casual food.
