Cornish Pasty Co
Dark wood and repurposed church pews set the mood at this American take on British pasty pies. The traditional style, filled with steak, potato, onions and rutabaga pairs wonderfully with the red wine gravy. Other options include fillings like Stilton cheese, or might have more of a Vegetarian, Mexican or Indian theme to them. Nail it all down with the Banoffee pie, made on premises. Serving bottled beer and cider while they await licensing for the taps.

Sweet N' Nasty
Stop in and pick up a cake shaped like any genitalia you like. They use high quality ingredients and get real creative with the frosting. They also sell a variety of obscene lollypops, pick one up for a friend and tell them to "eat a dick".

Muji
If you're visiting from Japan or China, you'd hardly bat an eye at yet another Muji store. But this spot is one of a handful of locations to open stateside, offering their signature "no-style" style. Kind of like a cross between Ikea, the Container Store, and Uniqlo.

Sonsie
Extremely trendy and somewhat expensive, Sonsie is known as a place for beautiful people. Multiple celebrities have dined here, and a few movies have been filmed within. There is reason for this, the food is excellent, the atmosphere serene and the downstairs wine bar is to die for.
