This spot has something for everyone! Bustling market in an old Navy building with hip eateries, bars & specialty food & craft vendors. After you fill up, head outside for a walk. There's a nice path that runs along the waterfront. This area has unique architecture as it was originally one of the U.S. Navy's Bootcamp locations. I'm partial to it, since I'm a Navy Veteran myself ;)

Drinks & Nightlife
For the beer lover. Hip gastropub & brewery with international eats, craft beers, bocce games & outdoor tables. They've done an amazing job with the landscaping that surrounds the outdoor eating spaces. In the summer they usually offer classic movie nights. Think drive-in movie, only bring lawn chairs for you & your pals or a blanket to snuggle up with your sweetie.
