Another hidden Gem in Old Town. This Bar is right at the intersection of S Columbus St and King St, however it's easy to miss as there are no signs. You know the place is open when you see a blue light on in front of their inconspicuous door. It's hard to get a reservation in advance as they're usually booked for two weeks, but they do take walk-ins. Knock on the door and when they greet you ask if they have availability (explain you're visiting town for limited time and that may help)

Great coffee and local gem. Locals go to Misha's for their caffeine needs. Very friendly staff and quick service, even though this place is never empty. Not my favorite espresso place (Killer E.S.P. for straight espresso) but if I am in the mood for cappuccino or latte, this is the perfect spot. A plus they have fresh local pastries.

A hidden gem (hole-in-the-wall) if you like Vietnamese cuisine. Of course they have great Pho. Keep in mind this place only accept one credit card per table (no split checks on cards) and it is very affordable.

Pretty quiet and low key restaurant that has delicious mediterranean food. If you like mediterranean food, this place is pretty authentic and I highly recommend it. However, if you're going out for a date, you may want to consider Taverna Cretekou instead and opt for the outdoor seating if the weather allows for it.
