Family owned and operated. Est. 2013. Serving fresh, home-made cuisine and desserts from family recipes. Secluded outdoor seating while the weather permits and cozy indoor seating by a warm fire during the colder seasons.

After reading the many reviews and seeing the high ratings for this place over the years, we decided to give it a try for lunch. Being the foodies that we are, we had high expectations for service, venue/décor, freshness, menu, food/preparation and the overall experienceâ¦Regarding service â It was decent, definitely not great. We did appreciate the team approach to service and as such, our ice teas stayed nicely topped-off, but our primary server had issues tracking our courses (forgetting which course we were on, what was next, etc) and with timing the delivery of our food. Everyone was friendly.Regarding Venue â It looks interesting in there⦠Outside looked really nice, we would have preferred the outside, had the weather been better. Resembles more of an outdated diner on the inside with a sagging plastic tile ceiling and faux-stone block wall panels. Seating was a little cramped, but comfy while we were dining.The menu is really nice⦠they have plenty of intriguing items on the appetizer, entrée, sandwich, salad and dessert menu. Prices are decent, especially for their lunch items. Accompaniments are perfectly selected as well.As for the food⦠Very fresh and nicely done. The bistro steak could have had a better application of (or more) seasoning, fortunately the red wine reduction really helped. The preparation on it was perfect. Crab cakes are amazing! Very fresh and no filler! Their homemade tarter sauce was outstanding and perfectly accompanied the crab cakes. The entrée portion is huge and very filling too. Their mashed cauliflower was outstanding and the brussel sprouts we good, very tasty, slightly too much butter though. Save room for dessert, theyâre HUGE and Very Nice!!Overall â We all really liked the food and would definitely return, we just had higher expectations since the reviews were so consistently high and there were so many to legitimize them. Really like the quaint setting and the âold townâ style and setting.
2. Dunkin'
America's favorite all-day, everyday stop for coffee, espresso, breakfast sandwiches and donuts. Stop by or order ahead with the Dunkin' App.

But parking available doesnât mean that they have donuts. 1130AM and lousy selection. No donut & coffee combo anymore. Big signs saying coffee special .99$ but , fine print is only when caps play and you have to be a âclubâ member. Looks like deceptive advertising to me. Left without buying anything. Went next store to Shoppers and got twice the quality and quantity for half the price.

Been here several times over the last six months. The crepes are pretty decent, slightly expensive. Some times the beverages, which are different coffees and cappuccino, can be hit or miss. All in all, a nice little coffee shop which gets quite crowded sometimes.
