Very informal "go to" spot for lunch and dinner - in the heart of downtown. Lots of local brews on tap, live music now and again. Try the "Lover's Leap" - salmon patties on a bed of mashed potatoes with a delicious salsa.

Sit out on their patio is nice weather and enjoy the scrumptious food - mountain trout is excellent, the chicken quesadlillas are beyond superb, specials like seafood pasta alfredo super yummy.
