The Espy (short for The Esplanade) is right by the seashore, opposite the Beach House, and open all day and evening. Good atmosphere, has a book exchange, board games, dog friendly, coffee, drinks and cocktails, lovely food, famous burgers. What's not to love really.

I always want just about everything I see in 12 Triangles. Just gorgeous baked stuff, and they have a little coffee bar bit too. Very highly recommended.

Parks & Nature

Amazing views, monuments (try going up the Nelson, only £3, lovely small exhibition, wonderful climb up to the top) Try to be there around 1pm, and see the famous Time Ball in action. Really lovely spot on a good day.

Lovely for a run or a a walk, it can be hard to believe you are so close to the city and all the cultural offers, the sea will always soothe your soul, and invigorate your spirits.

Essentials

Very good value, close (although Scotmid is even closer to the flat), fruit, veg, basics, and invariably an assortment of bargain items in the centre aisles.
