We can get great coffee in walking distance, grocery, drugstore, restaurants but no very local bar. Obviously don't want to go in a car to drink and occasionally (today) it would just be so nice to have a local place. Not for, like, a night of partying and not for a fancy dinner. Just one or two drinks and walk home.
We've got several restaurants (Spanish tapas bar/restaurant, a Greek place and an Italian place with a beer garden). Don't know of any dedicated bars, but it's kind of suburban here. I only go there a couple of times a year, though; I don't go out much in general.
But this isn't the US, so there's decent options a short bus or bicycle ride away. Is "30 min. by foot" a "walking distance"?
