Sweet Cafe! Stop in for artisan coffee, tea, and locally made baked goods. All of the offerings (quiche, bread, baked goods) are delicious. The staff are super sweet. I love that they had board games and kids books available. Live music (jazz). A lovely space with great energy.

I love all of their dishes but probably my favorites are the egg rolls, chicken satay, massaman curry, vegetarian drunken noodle, basil chicken, and pad thai. There's so many great dishes here so try them all if you can. Great prices to boot! Can be spicy so specify how hot (or not) you want your dish.

A bit of a drive but well worth the trip for wood fire pizza and more. If eating in, recommend making a reservation. We had their Crow Bacon (comes attached to a wire with clothes pins (so fun!) , wood fired Caesar salad (YUM!), fall off the bone baby back ribs and a meatball pizza. Everything outstanding! Check out Newfane while you're there.

Contemporary Thai cuisine. High Thai is a relatively new restaurant in the space that held Thai Bamboo. It is open at noon, so good for lunch or dinner. I enjoyed the drunken noodles with shrimp. Good, modest heat, tender shrimp. You order at the counter and your meal will be brought to you. Local craft beers available.

This is a throwback to another era when movie houses were these cathedrals of arts and entertainment and going to the movies was a chance to be exposed to murals, statues and ornate architecture. The main theater is a trip back in time. There are three cinemas which show current films.

Shopping

We've been coming to this bookstore for years and almost weekly. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They not only sell books but also gifts, cards, calendars, etc. Very community based. The owners Pat and Alan have donated a tremendous amount of time and support for local schools as well as non-profits. If they aren't at the store they are helping someone out in some way. We highly recommend this bookstore. It's a true gem!
