I've always enjoyed the downstairs ambience of the Mint - they often feature DJ's in the evenings, affordable and yummy plates, and sometimes live entertainment - you may catch a comedy show here if you're lucky.

This block of Victoria, is quickly turning into our local taco district. Line-ups are typically reasonable. Pick one up on your way to the sea-wall. Tacofino is one of my personal favourites.

Drinks & Nightlife

The Strath is one of our night-life hubs that comes to life in the summer. Check out the Rooftop for beach volleyball, especially on Fridays/ Sundays. Downstairs, Distrikt is one of our local music venues, that hosts many of the larger artists in town. Head to the Games room, at the Sticky Wicket, for an evening of bar/pool/darts.
