What a great little shop and the new location is fantastic. I am so happy this place is doing well. The owners are super nice and their cupcakes are so yummy. My favorites are the more simple varieties but they have plenty for adventurous types. My absolute favorite is Lemon. The cupcakes are always fresh and the frosting is delicious. Sometimes the buttercream frosting can be a bit much, only because there is so much on the cupcake, my suggestion is just scrape some off and keep enjoying your cupcake!
A fun spot with a 50's vibe and the prices are not too bad either. They have a lot of unique items on the menu as well as old standbys like burgers, hot dogs, and chicken. They have their own beverage called Loganberry which I have been purchasing at Hannaford and am glad that I finally went to its birthplace and experienced the food. Once in a while when they are extremely busy the food is not as excellent as usual but in general, I recommend PJs.
I love the Circus Cafe. You will find this fun vibrant restaurant on Broadway, right across from Borders. The exterior stands out with bold circus colors and decor. The waitstaff is friendly and provides great service. They wear t-shirts that say things like, "former contortionist" or "I tame lions." The menu is excellent, ranging from fun selections for the kids to full course dinners. I highly recommend my 2 favorites; the Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich or Mad Hatter Fish & Chips. The dessert menu is to die for. I have 4 words for you...Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake!!! If you are not a chocolate fanatic, then you might want to try the fairy floss (cotton candy), which they spin themselves and it arrives at the table like a huge cloud on a plate. I have dined there solo, with friends, and with family. It is child and family friendly, but also a great place for adults.
