Situated across South Packinghouse Drive, the J.R's Old Packinghouse Cafe is a local cafe. Earlier in 1920s, it was a packing house for celery and now it has been completely transformed into a swanky dining establishment. It serves excellent short eats like sandwiches and tasty meals complete with desserts; and you need not worry about your kids as it has a special menu for children. Apart from good food and great atmosphere, this cafe is known for its live music concerts that features local artists and at times even enthusiastic diners who try their hands at singing.
