Grocery store like Whole Foods, but reasonably priced. Also has bar and restaurant and area for kids to play. Often has live music too. Kids eat free on Tuesdays, but that also means its a bit more crowded on Tuesdays.

Fancy Barbeque and bar downtown. Fantastic brunch. Pricey, but if you catch the happy hour it is super reasonable. If you are going for happy hour, call ahead and ask if the upstairs is open before you go. Limited space.
