Food scene
The Ahi Tuna app is one of my favorites! You may want to drive or walk about a mile but if you can't agree on the same food it's all here and good. Salads, burgers, pasta dishes, or just a home-cooked meatloaf dinner. Pricing is average and you will meet friendly local people sitting in the barside dining area!
(FYI they no longer serve breakfast)
Charlie's Place Restaurant
