The archetypal all-American Diner, with shakes and smoothies, eggs made to order, proper hamburgers smothered in cheese. Nip up here and sip one of their milkshake cocktails – we recommend the Kraken, with rum, banana ice cream, maple syrup and malt – and make believe you’re in Happy Days. A perfect place to break off from your shopping.
