Murphy’s Cable Wharf

**** (4 stars)

We had a nice afternoon snack here on the semi-enclosed patio. Protected from the wind, but  open above, it’s a great way to enjoy a brisk day. The lobster dip was a generous serving, and mostly lobster.

There are a lot of similar menus in this touristy area, but you can’t beat the view at the end of the pier this restaurant sits on.

Le Bistro By Liz

**** (4 stars)

We had a nice Sunday brunch at this lovely bistro. It has a light, open and airy feel due to all the windows, and the solarium at the front. Service is very friendly, and the menu combines traditional French dishes with more traditional brunch foods. Both the onions soup and the breakfast skillet were excellent. And brunch comes with a free drink, so it’s a good deal.
