Snow City Cafe

This is the happening spot downtown for breakfast or lunch. What started as a smaller, granola-crowd place grew on the basis of hearty, tasty food, and a friendly young waitstaff into a large, busy restaurant with lots of life and energy and a diverse clientele. It's especially popular in the morning, when you'll rarely do better than the salmon cakes and eggs or omelets. Breakfast is served all day. Lunch, starting at 11am, includes comfort food such as mac and cheese or meat loaf, but also unusual sandwiches, such as roast beef and blue cheese or the delicious portobello burger. The dinning room is light and colorful, with a clean feel, and with tables out in the open amid lots of movement. The restaurant offers free Wi-Fi. My only demerit: waits at busy hours. Small monthly art shows begin with artist receptions every first Friday, a pattern shared with all the downtown galleries. They serve beer and wine.
