Need another alternative quiet place? Then this is it. Instead of coffee there's a wide selection of teas including Newfoundland Pine Needle tea and other rare and uncommon sorts. Need oolong? Need green tea? They've got you covered. Also great for hosting meetups among friends.

Shopping
A well stocked liquor store can be found on the street so if you're the sort of light drinker who needs a "night cap" before bed this is one place to get it. Of course regular beer can also be purchased from the nearby IGA and Metro grocery stores.

Parks & Nature
You can often find fishermen fishing here... My real estate agent has done that many times. Its a 14.5-kilometre path running between the Old Port and Lake Saint-Louis, a waterway with five "locks" that control access. Along the banks is the green space park with the last signs of the industrial era when the canal boomed. During the year, there's plenty of activities at this historic site... making it a great place to visit with family or friends.

You're only 5 to 10 minutes away from the park and shoreline where you can go for a walk, jog or bike... It's a long stretch, there's plenty of bike paths and places to fish... Including a marina along the way and a public swimming pool at the Natatorium...

Arts & Culture
This is one massive church that's been restored a few times already... Lots of history behind its stone face... Worth a peek inside if you have the time... If you can somehow get to the top of the tower you'd have quite the view of the area...

Your typical North American grocery store. Well it's certainly not that expensive compared to Loblaws or Longos if that's what you're worried about. I get my antibiotic, hormone free cheese from here when it's on sale. For all your usual grocery necessities that aren't Eastern or specialized, Metro has got you covered.
