There are several specialty shops (outdoor wear and essentials and boutiques) and Pizza and Pint on Main Street. Their specialty, of course, is pizza, and my friend and ai shared the Mediterranean, because of the olives and other favorite ingredients. Along with that we had a glass of Merlot (so it isn't just pints). Our Hostess and Server was the Bartender, and despite the fact that there were about 4 tables already seated, and half dozen sitting at the semi-circle bar, she took care of us efficiently and charmingly.

The servers were really nice and friendly. The butternut squash soup was really nice thick and creamy. I felt like the portions were just right and I did not feel like anything was too greasy.

Because this is located downtown, there is street parking, or there is a parking garage down the road where you can park.

Parking was a bit difficult on this day, but that's to be expected with the holiday shopping traffic. I love Brick & Tin. It's upscale Panera in the best way. Their brisket sandwich and soups are absolutely incredible. I always recommend this place if you're looking for a nice, fast-casual lunch. I got the farro half salad and added chicken. This was the perfect lunch. Great flavor, squash, some greens, farro to keep you full (I believe this is an ancient grain), I feel like I checked every box on being healthy for the day. The dressing is delicious and not overdone. They've got bar seating, two tables for larger groups, and then booth seating along the walls. It's a farm-to-table vibe in here, and the food certainly matches. I've never been disappointed by anything from here. I need to try out their downtown location next!

Old Tom's Pub is the only restaurant open Monday-Friday at the Inn so we had lunch and dinner here. For lunch there were three of us and we tried the sampler, wedge salad, Caesar salad, and wrap. The sampler was good and salads delicious! The wrap left more to be desired with it's one slice of deli meat. Overall it was okay! For dinner we had a larger party of 12! Our server was phenomenal and that stood out to me most. She was quick, attentive, and accurate! We had steak, short ribs, salmon, the burger, veggie bowl, a ton of appetizers, and dessert. The steak stood out to the table the most as delicious! The salmon was cooked to perfection, and the short ribs were delicious but cold. We enjoyed every single appetizer and the dessert was to die for! (Cookie brownie in a skillet with ice cream)!!! Overall the place isn't "amazing" but it's pretty tasty and hits the spot! Excited to try the pizza tomorrow.

When you walk in, you come face to face with a big cooler full of all sorts of heavenly cakes and desserts. I like to size them up before I sit down so I have an idea of what I want when the meal is over. I usually get the Lasagna Bianca. A bertolone's original, this delicious dish boasts chunks of Italian sausage, a creamy, cheesy sauce, and turnip greens. Rich and satisfying, it can't be missed!! The tables are stocked with chunks of bread and bottles of dipping sauce made onsite. The interior is warm and inviting, with one large wall dominated by pictures of the family that founded Bertolones and Joe's Italian. Please check out this great spot!

The lasagna is awesome, the ravioli is flavorful, and all the ingredients are fresh and delicious. However, the service this year, provided by Amanda, was less than stellar. My dining party was one of only two in the restaurant at about 3pm, and Amanda was terribly impatient with all of us and seemed irritated. Her unfriendly, rushed manner is why I'm updating this review and reducing the rating by one star. So, if you go, expect great food but you might have a poor experience with your server. Original review from 2024: "Stopped at the restaurant after seeing advertising on the highway. This visit was absolutely perfect! Our waitress was helpful answering questions about the menu and food. She even allowed me to try a sample of the soup before ordering. That was awesome! I tried the lasagna and I absolutely recommend it! The sauce is delicious! Also delicious was the oil/pesto blend served at the table with bread. That was so tasty, we ordered a bottle of it to take with us!"

Although, it gets more expensive the more things you add. I've found that it doesn't keep very well (the lettuce gets soggy), so I typically don't have leftovers.

They'll give you a time estimate and order status (received, preparing, ready), so it's pretty easy to gauge when it'll be ready.
