We bought steaks, sausages, bacon, ground beef, and a brisket. The 2 filet mignons we bought were cooked that night and I was blown away by the quality. The flavor was so much better than any typical store bought meat. A couple nights later, we made burgers with the ground beef and it's unanimous that the flavor was so much better than any ground beef we'd ever had before. I absolutely can't wait to try the sausages, bacon, and especially the brisket, which will be smoked this coming weekend. Needless to say, I think we will be frequent customers at Kearn's Quality Meats because, well, their meat is top notch quality. Also, they have dogs that greet you, and how can you not like that?!

This is a fun place to visit for some decadent treats and gifts. I have tasted their chocolates…read morebefore but never had their sweet and rich donuts. The donuts were very moist and fresh and everyone I shared them with were raving about the flavors they tried. The caramel pecan donut is my favorite. I also wanted some unique chocolates to bring for an upcoming girls weekend and picked up some cute items in their Celebrations section near the back wall. I visited around 11:30 am on a Sunday so there were a lot of cars parked near the Brunch Cafe' and in the parking lot, but I found street parking in a free, 2 hour maximum spot down the street. It was fun to also see seasonal items decorated with St. Patrick's Day and Easter themes already in the store. There are some tables and chairs inside too, to enjoy a coffee and conversation.

The inside was very clean and well organized. I stopped in with the intent to look for a quick lunch. It was great to find out that do weekday deals (Mon-Thurs) on ready to eat items like salad bar, sandwiches, soup, sushi. I also loved that they had easy meals to purchase and cook at home as well as a large selection of Sweet Ali's Baked Goods. I ended up getting their soup and fresh baked focaccia to take home.

I ordered these boards for 2 events that I was throwing. Rosanna, the owner and maker, was such a pleasure to work with. She was organized with all the information I provided, responsive, genuine, and just overall a kind person! I'm definitely gonna get more boards from her for other holidays or events I have coming up. She also delivers right to you and has many charcuterie options, like jarcuterie for example. The actual charcuterie was phenomenal. Candied walnuts, prosciutto, halved dates, spiraled salami, pitted cherries, cheeses galore - the meat & cheese board was robust to say the least. The sweet board was sweet tooth heaven. Brownies, chocolate covered everything, Rice Krispies, various cookies, and more. Needless to say, the charcuterie boards were a HIT at my event. Seriously using any excuse just to come here and get more boards. Support women owned & local and order some bomb charcuterie from here!

I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to try one of the delicious boards recently and the…read morequality did not disappoint. The board was arranged beautifully from every angle with a mix of cheeses, crackers, meats, chocolate, cookies, olives, and fruits. I really like the effort that was put into including a variety of meat arrangements, cheese shapes, colors, flowers, and other components that made this a stunning work of art to look at. Fortunately, the board tasted just as good as it looks! I found that overall the flavors were a bit more muted, so that you can graze on this over time without feeling fatigue by being bombarded with strong flavors. I feel this may also be to ensure that the components are attractive to a wide audience. Overall, this definitely is worth buying if you're looking to entertain or hold a special event.

It's all smooth with none of the harsh or bitter taste from the tea leaves that I am well familiar with that accompanies tea bags. The tea seems to be of good quality and you can reuse the tea leaves a few times for several robust cups of tea. This place is pricey right down to the candles.
