This six-table, deli-style café sells fresh, high-quality food, such as salmon encrusted with pistachios, crisp salads, sandwich wraps, and baked goods. Although the chef is Italian, he sometimes cooks thick, tender Irish pork chops smothered in a secret sauce and sauerkraut, which is excellent. Eat in if a table is available, or buy food for a picnic or to take back to your room.
