The ladies open the doors at either 5:00 or 5:30 in the morning after baking fresh every day. There is a counter, some tables and a small town feel to the place. Folks sit over their coffees and chat, which is nice. There is even a take and leave book sharing shelf in the corner. Personal favourite? Egg and cheese on a croissant, grilled in the pan, with a cup of black coffee. I have been known to rescue a plain donut or two if they look lonely.

In Ashburnham of all places!!! GREAT little store WITH a spacious art gallery on the second floor!…read morePerfect source for cool gifts and fabulous art pieces. Plus it smells good AND they play the best music on the sound system! The shopkeepers are the friendliest and sweet, too! I could hang out in here ALL day! THIS is THE PLACE for unique presents! No need to drive into Cambridge, ANYMORE!

I'm so glad I found this adorable shop! Almost everything they sell is handmade locally. I happened…read moreto find this place by accident on a Saturday and wanted to check it out. I was delighted to see that every Saturday they have an artist set up a workshop where you can learn about their pieces, work alongside them and even purchase some artwork. I spent almost 3 hours in here! All items are very fairly priced. I definitely did not leave empty handed. I will definitely be back for Christmas shopping!

Right off of Route 2, this bake shop/gift shop/ice cream store is cute outside and inside. I don't…read morethink you can find a place in the state that sells this amount of homemade Scandinavian baked goods. The Finnish coffee bread had good flavor, though a tad dry. The Scandinavian almond cupcake is a bit sweet for me but has a strong almond flavor. You can find a variety of local food , Scandinavian, and other gifts at the store too. It's a nice place to get a gift on the way to visiting someone. They have dairy products and other perishables as well. There's some outdoor seating at the store and the abundance of flowers outside was a nice touch. I guess, hence, the Kitchen Garden... Service was friendly and helpful. I wished they had some limpa or Finnish rye, but I came pretty late in the day. Maybe I'll try the ice cream sometime, though it's from Bliss over in Attleboro, which is closer to Boston. This general store is a nice stop along Route 2.

The food is always fresh and delicious and home fries are always crispy as they should be! Real, juicy strawberry quarters on a strawberry waffle and an option for real maple syrup ;) Also, with so many food allergies and restrictions now, it's SO important that preferences are acknowledged - this is a must, not a luxury! However, my simple request for egg whites is hardly ever heeded; but not here. This place nails it every time since day 1! And despite our server taking care of the whole place solo, she is so very attentive and a pleasure. They also have a specials board now and again which is v appreciated.

The ambiance is very low key, easy to keep clean tables, chairs and floor. The coffee is good. Pancakes are huge. I asked twice for real maple syrup but unless she forgot to charge me for it, I think I got 'pancake' syrup, which is made of corn syrup and I'm not supposed to eat that. Note to self, if you have a food sensitivity or allergy, be sure they know it because I just tried to order according to my needs and didn't spell it out as I should have. The full order of Irish breakfast - an eggs bene over corned beef hash - is HUGE. A half order is absolutely enough for your average size breakfast. I ordered two pancakes, and one would have been enough for my appetite. Another note to self - portions are big. On street parking. Single restroom off dining area. Friendly staff. Good food and coffee. Definitely worth a stop for a home style breakfast.
