Food Scene

Great pizza, wings, salads and sandwiches. You can go for lunch or dinner. One of our favorite local shops. We visit weekly to also the market (great coffee, bakery, gift shop) and the best part is you can take wine over to the restaurant and there is no cork fee. Ask for Marcy at the bar!
