This intimate bistro is often full, so call ahead to book a table. Or take out a chicken schnitzel dinner with cabbage (specialty). One order easily feeds two! Friendly service and an easy walk to Sherbrook Street. Highly recommended.

Usually best to call around, but when I've had to rent a car this Enterprise location has always given me the best deal. Keep in mind the various locations have different prices. They will pick you up and bring you to their office upon request (which is about 5 minutes away)

Entertainment & Activities
A Scandanavian-inspired outdoor oasis of hot pools, saunas, salt scrubs and cold water dips. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Its about a 15 minute drive away. It is about $50+ entry (without the extras) and plan to spend a whole day if you can. There is a restaurant, but ideally have a big breakfast first (Pancake House is on the way), and if you have a bathrobe and water bottle, bring those. Towels provided. REJUVENATING & RELAXING and great value. Winter or summer.
