Old-feeling pub with a long menu that highlights fondue, the Com is the place on Friday nights for live jazz and funk. Other nights, DJs spin pretty much anything.

Colloseo
Classic, timeless Italian fare – from pizza to pasta to chicken to seafood – is on offer at this long-time favorite. The inside has a certain 1970s formality to it, all dark with heavy colors and furniture. Outside, a vast side patio is shaded by trees and enlivened with murals of the old country.

Clam Digger
Cars park three-deep outside this teeny red-and-white seafood shack, a summertime tradition in these parts. Order your clam platter or juicy, dripping cheeseburger, and claim one of the red-painted picnic tables. Don't forget an ice-cream cone! It's in Chamcook, about 9 km north of St Andrews.

The pesto and other excellent Mediterranean dishes here never disappoint. Dine (or enjoy just a glass of BC wine) in the stylish interior or out on the patio. There's live jazz heard here many nights.
