"Front Street has its fair share of spots with sweeping Hamilton Harbour views, but the second-floor balcony of The Terrace, an upscale restaurant and bar, is where you’ll see one of the very best. It's a glassed-in perch that allows for an unobstructed panorama. Come on a Wednesday evening in summer, and you'll be in the best position to watch Harbour Night down below—a weekly open-air party when the street is closed to cars. Weekly drink specials change nightly, so if you’d like to save a few bucks, ask what’s on special (for example, $7 glasses of wine on Monday, two-for-one Coronas on Tuesday, or $10 cocktails on Thursday). But don’t let that stop you from perusing the cocktail menu—there are several very good options, including the wickedly popular—though unfortunately named—Pornstar Martini, with vanilla-infused vodka, passionfruit rum, passionfruit purée, and Prosecco." - David LaHuta
