Great Korea restaurant on one side, bar on the other. The pajeon (green onion pancakes) and the bibimbap are really good! Very good value. On the other side of town, but if you're in the area it's worth a visit.

Look out for the large wooden snail hanging above the door and then walk up the stairs to what feels like a loft house party. Funky modern bar, really bright, good tunes, comfy couches, great outdoor patio for smokers.

Our local - a nice old traditional Irish pub. Great for a quiet pint or a bite to eat - they serve standard pub grub that doesn't break the bank. Rumour has it they host trad music sessions as well but we haven't confirmed which nights yet.
