7. Bill's
The staff are welcoming, gracious, competent -- all in all delightful. Food is excellent. Good quality, reasonably priced. Super decor and atmosphere. Average rating: 4.5/5 Photo: Staff
8. The Swine That Dines
Completely different dining experience to anything I've had before, the little sharing plates combined different and unusual flavours which worked perfectly. Average rating: 5/5 Photo: Staff
9. North Street Deli
Never fails to provide freshly cooked food. Can get very busy at lunch time, and specials quickly sell out. Get in early and beat the rush. Cooked breakfast can set you up for the day! Average rating: 4.5/5 Photo: Shutterstock
10. The Oxford Place
Charming place, varied menu, delighted to find an entirely gluten-free restaurant. The host was friendly and helpful and we will certainly visit again. Average rating: 5/5 Photo: Shutterstock
