Rose's Café

The Marina, Fisherman’s Wharf & the Piers


The ideal refueling spot while you're browsing Union St boutiques. Follow your salads and house-made soups with rich organic polenta with gorgonzola and thyme, or a simple grass-fed beef burger, then linger over espresso or tea. Shop if you must, but return to this sunny corner cafe from 4pm to 6pm for half-price wine by the glass and tap beer on weekdays.

Great breakfasts, too.
