Drinks & Nightlife
There is a very large selection of beers on offer. The food is very very good (I recommend the BLT and Fish and Chips). Menu has has everything that a British pub would offer. There are around 7 screens around the bar and one big projector screen, so no matter where you are you have a view sports on TV. Walking distance from the house.

One of our favorite activities on the weekend. Since 1970, each Wednesday and Saturday (flea market), and also every first Sunday (food and farmers market) of the month, dozens of market stands showcase their precious objects, street food and farmers produce to the public.
