Food Scene
Great food in a casual, lively and "up North" kind of place. Great burgers, seafood, ribs and meatloaf, everything made in-house. Go early for dinner, or better yet, go for lunch--it'll be less crowded.

Everyone needs a good, cheap Greek diner that serves a really big breakfast. Coffee that will bring you back to life and omelets big enough to share, but you won't want to--they are that good, especially the spinach, feta and tomato.

It's hard to categorize Froehlich's. They are a deli/bakery/cafe/whimsical stuff kind of place, serving some of the best sandwiches you could ever want. Their muffelata is very close to the real deal, down to the house-made olive relish. Much of what's on the menu is available to take home from the glass fronted coolers lining one wall. Located in nearby Three Oaks, a quintessential charming small town.
