Food scene
Park Tavern
The entrance is on Atlantic Avenue. There's always a lot of people around the bar and at the tables. We love the Park Tavern for happy hour drinks (daily from 5 PM - 7 PM) and small plates (their regular entrees are good, too). Try the Smoked Old Fashion, you won't be sorry. Park Tavern uses farm fresh ingredients - local, sustainable and from the best farmers, fishermen and ranchers. They make everything in-house. We love $5.00 Burger Mondays! The burgers are that price all night (go there between 5PM and 7PM to get the HH drinks with your burger). The burger comes with delicious French fries, lettuce, tomato and onion and you can add cheeses and other toppings for a tiny upcharge.

Ellie's is a five minute drive from our property. It is a cute 50's diner where the waitresses all wear poodle skirts and are super friendly. The food is good and you have a large menu of items to choose from. This is my go-to place to have a real New York egg cream, and if you have to ask what it is you are definitely NOT from the New York City area :-). If you are there when the special is prime rib, you are in luck, for their prime rib dinner can't be beat!!

One of the newest and most delightful shops. They have a lovely tea service, lunch and/or pastries and fruit. Try one of their many different hot or iced teas or coffees. A favorite of mine is the Bomb - a chocolate ball (in various flavors - mocha, Reese's peanut butter, plain) that is dropped into a glass of hot milk, to melt open with a surprise inside). Peruse the lovely items in the shop - art, gifts, wall hangings, clothing and totally affordable and quite lovely costume jewelry. Make sure you say hi to the lovely owners, Jill and Theresa. They will take good care of you!!
