Really good sushi. If you happen to stay in town later on Sunday they have half off sushi. They don't open until 3pm though. Otherwise a little pricey.

Probably the closest restaurant to the townhouse. It's a unique location as it's an old church that was converted into a brewery. The food is good and relatively inexpensive. Usually a fall back for me if other places are busy or I don't feel like going too far.

Entertainment & Activities

Old school arcade bar. All the games are free. You aren't required to get a drink but i'm sure they would appreciate it. I would try and go during the day as it is a little small and can get super packed at night.

A different style of bowling called duckpin. Must have reservations I believe. You feel like you walked into the 1950's. Everything is the original decor.

Sightseeing

If you have some free time on a nice day make sure you stop by and walk some of the canal. There are a few restaurants right on the canal and there is also a place to rent paddle boats or even gondolas.
