Blue Ice Café
Blue Ice Café Review
The two levels here can carry you from an early dinner through the wee hours. Go downstairs for a fine meal of local standbys such as salmon, steak, venison or lamb, with homemade bread. Upstairs there's a bar where you can order a pizza and a beer and rack up at the free pool table. Because it has a 3 am license and regularly hosts DJs most weekends, this becomes the town's late-night party spot during the tourist season.
