Food Scene
Great place for tasty coffee and crepes! You can eat here but I'd say the main attractions are the beer and wine selection and the good coffee. It's a tremendous place to set up a laptop and work or meet folks.

There are a thousand wineries just south of us, but King Estate is the only one with its own gorgeous restaurant. Go for lunch and it's less expensive, but dinner is also amazing. Good wines, amazing views, impeccable food. You can also take a winery tour or just go for tastings. Reservations recommended.
