Hi. In walking around downtown for the first time just exploring the area we had to go in here. All kinds of sweets home made and otherwise. We settled on a couple waffle cones and a couple of elephant feet I thing. Those were huge candy’s made of Carmel pecans and chocolate. Terrific.

Our family is getting married here in a year, and we are passing through town and they wanted us to see and experience their venue while we’re in town. We had a lovely time sitting on the front patio with our tasting flight. The bar attendant that afternoon made us instantly feel welcome and had a very warm demeanor.

We went to bananas yesterday with our 3 kids and it was a great experience. They have a special tokens every Friday, 160 tokens for $20. Most of the games are between 2-4 tokens. The kids ended up with over 800 tickets each and we’re super excited to pick out their prizes. Brandi was working behind the counter and she was great, very patient, friendly, and funny. The kids can’t wait to go back.
