Food Scene

This place is popular because it's a unique setting (one huge room, so it gets a bit loud when full). The food selection has something for everyone and quality is outstanding. Also, lots of local beers on tap.

Drinks & Nightlife

The best bar for specialty cocktails in the city. Very small and typically has a wait for up to an hour, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. Suggestion: put your name in (they'll text you) and go down the decorated alley (called the Belt) to a bar called "The Skip" to have a drink there. Save your appetite for small plates or a meal at the Stanby though! Oh, and try the "Unce Unce" drink if you like smoky and citrus flavors.
