As for the Stone Cow Brewery, the lines was way too long and the bar struggle to keep up with the demand. The food, the sights and sounds were beautiful. Worth the drive up!

Love this place !…read more First they make great sandwiches in their deli (out back thru a narrow hall ). I believe they make their own bread, it's beyond delicious and they had some locally made root beer to wash it down with to boot. They have some of the best rum raisin ice cream you'll ever have, it was melting quickly on a hot summer's day so they put the huge cone in a cup. They have a BBQ out front that is only opened on weekends in July & August, no doubt a future road trip from me.

Hmm. I'm on the fence here. The food was fairly decent. I ordered the whole belly clams dinner and…read moremedium mozzarella sticks. I will say that the whole belly clams and french fries were fantastic! As were the mozzarella sticks! However, for $23 they give you very small bellied clams, only a few pieces and limited quantity of clams. As far as the mozzarella sticks, they were fantastic! But the marinara was very lacking in flavor. Service was fast and personable! And I would go again, given that there aren't any options in this area. We are in the middle of nowhere. Total order came to $35 with clam bellies and mozzarella sticks.

Besides Hannah Devine's on Main, Mimi's CoffeeHouse of Hardwick, and possibly Janine's Frosty down…read morethe street, you're going to want to make Crystal Springs a destination restaurant diner for your daytime brunch or breakfast needs, plus milkshakes and ice cream. Crystal Springs brings a consistency of food quality, time, and care that has kept the restaurant in good hands in the last decades. Walk in and walk beside the bar, noting the diner is cash only, and into the two booth sections near the back so that your waitstaff can have easy access to take your order. The diner, near the back, updates specials and has a few consistent winners that keep recurring. The wall opposite your entry has a wall with a blown up photographed depiction of the town of Ware from the air many decades ago. One of the pluses of this all-day breakfast diner is that they also are a dairy bar, serving ice cream and milkshakes specifically. Expect Crystal Springs to be busy with locals and other out of town travelers at the corner of the plaza strip they're located at. They're near a busy entrance and exit way, and there's parking near enough to that ingress to be mindful of. Thank you for many meals, Crystal Springs, and I hope I find great photos I took of your diner one day to fit a review for a staff as reliable at 5am as you'd want in a diner.

But Yasser has and we are so grateful that he did. His cultural take and techniques when applied to some of the American diner classics makes one sit up and take notice. I think we can all agree the fried fish sandwich and fish and Chips is a New England classic. Imo, Yasser's fishfry technique and eerily light coating is truly something special; you will be hard pressed to find a better fried product anywhere. I'm not gonna tell you much, other than give this place a try and discover for yourself what hidden treasures this little restaurant holds.
