A local legend since 1968, this place serves pizza and pizza only. Famous for It's silky crust and savory cheese, it's worth the wait you may experience at the door. I like the Sweetwater IPA beer but just slightly bitter to go with that pizza.

A super comfortable restaurant with a wide variety on their menu and full bar. I like their steak salad, and their chicken tender platter with sweet potato fries.

201 has local musicians playing every weekend and on many Wednesdays and Thursdays. Their food is good, too, making this a solid lunch choice Tuesday through Friday. I particularly like their patty melt. on Saturdays the farmers market is happening outdoors seasonally and brunch is available.
