We love Sycamore. They have a great happy hour which includes small bites and drinks. My husband and I love their Thai Beef Kabobs and of course their french fries with house made ketchup and parmesan. Their salads are really good as are there desserts. They have great deals on tasty sandwiches for lunch. Favorite entree may be the mussels.

Uprise is the most chill place to relax. You can sit and read with coffee, sit at the bar and get drinks with friends, or hang out on the patio. They have some of the best food in town -- incredible salads, good sandwiches and soups, and, of course, bread and pastries. They are also home to Ragtag Cinema and adjacent to Hitt Records, two places not to miss.
