Food Scene

For us, this is literally the best coffee in the world. And we travel a lot, and drink a lot of coffee. If you are lucky, Buck himself will make your drink. We recommend the cappuccino, the ham and cheese biscuit, and the sausage and egg muffin.

Delicious, creative food! They feature different international dishes each week, but with a great selection of favorites. The steak frites and jungle curry are two of our " go to"s. Be warned, the chimichurri and bread are addictive.

We love this place. It's pretty much the only casual, mid-priced restaurant bar in town, so there is often a wait to get in. Burgers are great. Tater tots, yummy. My husband loves the hot dog. Seriously, get there when it opens at 11:30. :-)

Parks & Nature

Wonderful 2 mile circuit with breath-taking views. If you are hiking for exercise, you can do it in about an hour. Otherwise, take a picnic and enjoy the view. If going on a weekend, get there early because parking can fill up. There is a $2 parking fee.

Best view of Highlands! Parking at the bottom of the trail, take a bottle of wine and some cheese up about an hour before sunset. Memories will be made!

Essentials

They know they have a captive audience so their prices are often much higher than you are used to. If you are staying several days and cooking, think about bringing some food in a cooler.

Entertainment & Activities

A comfortable small movie theater. Refreshments include popcorn, wine, beer, etc. The only drawback is that there is only one screen, so one movie at a time. We always enjoy going there. Ticket prices are $10.
