This Parisian-style cafe and bar has enchanted patrons for over 200 years with its charming courtyard and relaxed atmosphere of living history.

And while stepping into Napoleon House, you will feel like you are entering a time capsule. The dimly lit, cozy interior is adorned with vintage decor, including antique furnishings and historic photographs, creating an atmosphere that pays homage to the building's rich history.

Basin Seafood And Spirits, as the name suggests, specializes in delicacies made out of freshly caught seafood and serves small plates which can be shared by two to three people at once. The ambiance of the restaurant is casual with warm orange and yellow hues and high table tops beside the bar.

Their signature, Thonsalat, served with spicy, flavorsome curry and rice is a constant favorite and other popular dishes are Crawford Mac And Cheese and Redfish Shrimp.
