After having a wonderful breakfast experience, we went back on a Friday evening for the BBQ maple glazed ribs. We had been told to go early because the ribs sell out fast. I had the ribs, a full serving (could have done ½), and my wife had the baked scallops. The ribs were fall off the bone delicious. The scallops were cooked just right, and there were quite a few of them. They do food right at Johnson’s

I like all Duncan Donut Shops. The coffee is excellent and the selection of donuts, sandwiches, breakfast items is outstanding. The food is always fresh and the service is great.

Not a big fan of Dunkins period. I know, blasphemy from a New Englander. Its your standard DD but apparently it is listed twice on here but there is only one DD in the area. The set up getting in and around to the drive through is a bit confusing and you have to watch when you are pulling in and out.. Food is your regular fare the same at every DD

This is a small town Chinese restaurant that offers a wide selection of Chinese dishes. Ample portions, reasonable prices, and quick, friendly service all combine to make this restaurant well worth the visit. We have eaten here several times in the past, and the food has always met our expectations.....
...consistently delicious and always served with very little wait time.

I will start off by saying the staff were lovely. The burgers were good. And the chicken tenderloins good. The chicken wrap had hardly any chicken in it. Less than half a breast cut up. 5 out of 6 of the ice creams were amazing but the coffee one had virtually no taste. Oh and the tables were sticky and black, not nice.

We serve homespun, from-scratch cooking for breakfast and lunch in an intimate setting with a wide-ranging playlist of great music. We've crafted a simple menu with a few out-of-the-ordinary twists and special items for increased interest throughout the week and on Sunday, when we serve breakfast/brunch all day.

Four of us went for breakfast. We tried the gumbo and the scrapple. Both were very good. Coffee was also very good * a must for a breakfast place). Service was excellent. They have a very interesting variety of breakfast dishes with something for eceryone. This is a small place, but nicely decorated and very clean. We would happily go back.

Cozy, intimate pub that serves good food and has a variety of drinks - beers on tap, a large variety of liquors, cider, etc. The food menu is mostly sandwich-centric but does have dinner plates... Best of all, the food is homemade. My favorite was the burger with (thin!!) fries. Portions are generous, wait staff was very friendly and attentive, and I just really felt at home here. We ended up eating here 3 times during a week-long trip.
Pro tip: skip the wines, the ones we tried were terrible.

Known for its burgers, I will not forget them, and how poor they were. First, we ordered them medium, one came nearly raw, the other rare. Simply taken, and returned a little bit more "done". The alleged 1/2 pound of meat did not look the weight. The burgers seemed to have been pre-formed on a burger press; uniformly thin and round. More Mickey D's than a home made big burger. The grind was overly fine, it was mushy and tasted as such, but with a touch of gristle and not much flavor. The roll was quite soft, did not seem toasted as described and quickly became a soggy mess.
We both got the pub chips, one of us received crisp chips of OK flavor, the other received warm mushy underdone chips.
The best part of the meal was the local IPA from Wormtown Brewery.

Lines are long in the drivethru and the gas station this is in always smells dirty like old cooking grease (the gas station serves food too) .. too many times my order has been messed up, so I usually skip this one in my travels.
