Food Scene
Great bakery and wonderful place to go for breakfast... though on a Saturday or Sunday you'll inevitably need to wait in line for a bit. I like the almond croissants.

Literally a stone's throw away... well, perhaps my arm isn't that good. A block away, how about that. Nice coffee shop though can be noisy when they're roasting. Good coffee and worth checking out.

Great café. Monday nights are Bluegrass nights... which if I wasn't always working, would attend. Good place for waffles on the weekend.

Drinks & Nightlife
A true original. This pub is not to be missed, principally because of it's décor... I can't explain it, you'll just have to check it out. They have beer brewed by actual monks... I appreciate that.

Sightseeing
Love the building they've restored and love to visit their art. Make it part of your visit to Art-Is-In Bakery for croissants. Recently learned that it is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

In summer you can rent kayaks and canoes (though you're welcome to borrow our canoe) and paddle up and down the Rideau Canal. In winter, this is where you would rent skates for your 7 km skate.

Want to just take a walk? Walk down Preston Street until you get to Dow's lake, go right, then you're in the Arboretum. Just a lovely place to walk is all.
