Upbeat little coffee shop, that offers some tasty treats and the best cup of coffee the city has to offer. It is a bit pricier, but if you enjoy a good cup of java this is highly recommended.

An amazing small scale winery. Besides the delish wines, they also have a little deli that offers up a fabulous selection of cheese, charcuterie, salmon pate, tapenade, fresh baguettes, and more (plus a picnic basket!). You can grab a bottle, or two, of your favorite wines that you have tasted and cozy up on a blanket or bistro table to enjoy your picnic. This is my favorite winery on the island... the wines are so, so good!
