If your eyes are too tired to take in an art show, you can cheat by going to the Gallery Cafe. This place lives up to its name by incorporating artistic elements into both its decor and menu. A painter’s palate above the door greets customers on their way in and out. Depending on the month, a series of local artists’ photography, pastels or acrylic paintings hang on the bright walls.
Food-wise, get your mocha-banana milkshake fix with your pick off the oven-roasted sandwich menu. All sandwiches are a witty nod to popular artists from the past. The BLT is the lone sandwich with a telltale title amongst the Dali, Kandinsky, Rembrandt and Michelangelo. However, naming the steamed egg, bacon, tomato and sprout creation the "Da Vinci" was an interesting choice, considering the innovator was a fervent animal lover and vegetarian.
