Their soup is the best on a cold winter day. They make it fresh daily and are always trying out amazing combinations. Their grilled cheeses and salads are delicious too.

My go-to order is their shaved brussel sprout salad with added chicken tenders, a side of their jalapeno chedder cornbread and alcoholic John Daly slushie. Best enjoyed on their patio.

My go-to place for a bottle of wine, deli salads, a pint of ice cream, etc. It's a very friendly, helpful neighborhood store. Also, Martha's Pizza next door has delicious thin crust pizza.
