fresh seafood

Support local commercial fishermen and buy from Snead Island Fish House. The seafood is fresher than any you'll find at a grocery store and it's locally caught. Good prices, great service, good food.

good fishing spot

This fishing pier is long enough to put you out over deep water so the chances of catching decent fish are increased. The pier is well-lit for safety. Bring lots of water; it's easy to get dehydrated out in the full sun. There's no shelter/shade other than what you bring with you.

Like an elegant men's club

If you know someone who appreciates fine tobacco, you really must send them to Bennington Tobacconist. They carry a wide selection of blends; all are sold fresh and flavorful. Pipes and other tobacco-related items are available and are of top quality. The shop itself is lovely, with an elegant feel and wonderful aromas.

Mmmm... Ice cream!

Big Olaf's Creamery serves what I think is some of the best, creamiest, and most delicious ice cream around. Try a cone!

trustworthy

I've been bringing my car to Doug Guth since he opened his repair shop. I feel comfortable knowing that he will do what is needed to fix my car but will not do unncessary work. If something unexpected shows up, he will call to discuss it before proceeding.

fruit and vegetable wines

You will find some odd and flavorful wines here; made of citrus, berries, fruits, and even vegetables. Give the carrot wine a try!

Knowledgable and helpful

Whether you're needing a plumber to come out to your house or advice and parts for a do-it-yourself endeavor, Wyman's Plumbing is the place for you. Locally owned and run; the staff is truly knowledgable, unlike many of the "big-box" home repair centers.

FUN! More than ice cream

Vintage 50's decor and music set the atmosphere of family good times. Add tasty ice cream confections including authentic-tasting New York Egg Creams and you have an outing everyone will enjoy.

Nice, old-time diner

Ruskin Cafe is an old-style diner, with a typical diner menu. Food is served hot; prices are low. Service is great; truckers and locals are regulars here.

Greek and American

The Acropolis' menu includes authentic Greek dishes along with a smattering of American fare. All the dishes I've had have been excellent; fresh, well-seasoned, perfectly prepared. Service is efficient and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun. Good for a family night out, friends' get-together, or date-night.
