Timeline
08:30
Pick up a coffee and a pastry. Root and Press opens at 08:30, so you can be one of the first inside. The café is quiet in the morning, giving you a moment to plan your walk while you eat.
09:00
Walk eight minutes to the Dartmouth Street School. Built in 1894, this Romanesque Revival building is a quiet architectural gem. It is a short, flat walk from the café, perfect for stretching your legs with your morning coffee.
09:45
Head to Vincent's for a late morning drink or a meatball sub. The bar is known for its dark, dingy atmosphere and shirt-and-tie staff. It is a lively spot, so going slightly later in the morning helps you avoid the lunch rush.
Local tip
Root and Press closes at 16:30, so this morning plan ensures you catch them while they are open and quiet. Vincent's is open late, but the morning energy is low, making it a good spot for a relaxed break.
