There are many great places to eat nearby. We are also within walking distance of several microbreweries & a couple of cideries if you care to explore the various tastes they offer. We have personally tried the restaurants below and feel comfortable recommending them to you.
One of my favorite places to get delicious chocolate and ice cream. There are free factory tours that take place Monday-Friday, 11am-2pm (tours on the hour). Free samples inside the factory store and the cafe is a great place to enjoy a cup of hot cocoa, espresso, or ice cream (shakes & cones) About a 10 minute walk from our apartment.
