Food Scene

Monopole is run by some of our friends. Great coffee, interesting food, amazing wine selection. Open late Wed/Thurs/Fri - it's hard to beat for a great place to relax with friends, any time of day.

It's a classic. It's not cheap, but it's not spendy. The food is almost always well above part and the service is stellar. Real wine aficionados should look the other way though, they don't keep their reds at a reasonable temp. Still - one of our favourite places to eat.

Surprisingly fun place. Almost everything we had was good except for the Gnocchi Poutine. Other than that, we were impressed by this place.

Pretty decent, if slightly pricy, italian-style pizza. I mean, it's so Italian some of the people barely speak english or french.
