Food Scene

One of the two good coffee places in town and closest to the house. They have great coffee and food but it's very expensive. Hipsterific!

I think this is the best coffee in town. Food is not as good as fixed but the prices are more reasonable. It's located at the base of signal hill and the battery, two good walk options for you and your coffee.

One of the best restaurants in the country actually. It's a really wonderful dining experience if you're into that. I would say expect to pay $300-$400 for a couple. There are plenty of amazing restaurants in St. John's if that's too expensive so fear not. They also have a bar too where you can get anything from the restaurant if you're not into the whole dining thing.

One of the best restaurants in town, run by a great couple. They tend to focus on meat and charcuterie. They have great cocktails as well.

Vegetarian. Great place, small menu. I think it's only open during meal times and it can take a while sometimes but if you're not in a rush it's pretty sweet, as is the older gentleman who owns it.

Excellent place for food and drink. The ship is an institution. This is a great place for music at night and food during the day. The menu is ever changing because Amy is amazing.

Wonderful place to eat, another institution. It's a curry platter, basically the same plate in small or large, meat or veg. Great place for early diner, I think they close at 7.

Shopping

On Duckworth, across from the war memorial. It's an institution and the best place to buy music in St. John's; large supporter of our legendary local music scene.

Great local store, specializes in hats, and has gloves and scarves as well. They also have a lot off odds and ends, cards and small trinkets. Hip, well curated.

Drinks & Nightlife

Great place for a nightcap after dinner. They have nice drinks and a large collection of records that they play from and you can pick as well. Cozy spot on Duckworth. **Map doesn't seem to be displaying it properly, it's across from The Ship on Duckworth, next to India Gate restaurant.

Entertainment & Activities

Fun science center partway up signal hill. They have a exhibit on the titanic which is laughably bad, but other things are definitely worthwhile there.
