Golden Lion Cafe – American
Perched where the salt air meets a lively, sun-soaked atmosphere, this coastal retreat invites guests to linger over chilled platters of freshly shucked oysters that sparkle with the briny essence of the ocean. The experience reaches its peak during the legendary Lobsterfest, where succulent, butter-drenched shells take center stage amidst a backdrop of casual elegance and the rhythmic clinking of celebratory toasts.
