Papa Seafood & Papa 2000
This large patio restaurant right in the heart of town dishes out tasty barbecued seafood and steak under flickering Christmas lights. As the evening turns to night, Papa fills up with locals who toss back a few beers before heading to the adjacent Papa 2000 discotheque.

Montana
This bar has relatively authentic Western decor including stuffed animal heads (don’t worry, they’re fake), Budweiser neon and nightly gigs with the Big Boss Blues Band from 9.30pm. In the kitchen there are no concessions to the West with a zingy Thai menu.
