Fish &amp; chips were spot on. The old wood-paneled dining room really fits the New England pub vibe.

Crab cakes were fresh and flaky, which is what you want on a rainy afternoon. Moroccan mint tea was nice for sharing. They turned on the blue lights for a bit of fun. Solid spot for a quiet lunch.

I had an amazing brunch here with delicious eggs Benedict and French toast topped with caramel bananas. The live piano music added a lovely touch to our Sunday meal.

The Colonel Sanders ramen with that Vermont butter was a fun twist. Never seen that before! The broth had this smoky, almost creamy thing going on. Dumplings and buns were solid too, but that ramen is the real draw.

Portions are huge, which I love. Got the fish and chips and it was piping hot and crispy. The shepherd&#39;s pie looked great too. Solid spot for classic pub grub.

Ordered takeout and the staff was really helpful. They set up a small table outside for us to eat. Food was decent, service made it easy. Convenient spot.

Solid egg white scramble, good for a quick, healthy bite.

The croissants are textbook perfect&mdash;crispy outside, wonderfully elastic inside. The quality matches their gorgeous appearance.

Tried their Italian-Latino fusion menu last night. The pasta with chorizo was interesting, a bit spicy but the sauce was rich. The arancini were crispy outside, creamy inside. Solid spot for something different.

The staff was really friendly and let me try a couple of soups first. I went with the chicken pot pie soup, and the little puff pastry side was so good. It made for a very comfortable, easy lunch.

The red curry and rice here is just the right size for me. Came out super fast, too. I always leave feeling satisfied but not stuffed.

Stopped by for their iced brown butter and sage pumpkin latte. That brown butter flavor really comes through, and it&#39;s not too sweet. Got it on a busy Halloween weekend, line moved fast, maybe 15 minutes. Solid iced latte.

Huge menu, which is nice. The roast beef was solid, the chicken parm sub hit the spot. Pizza was fine. It&#39;s just a reliable place, nothing fancy, but you get what you pay for.

The staff was so attentive to my arugula allergy. They double-checked everything in the kitchen for me. It&rsquo;s rare to feel that confident about the ingredients when dining out. The care they took made the whole evening relaxing.

The cozy, intimate vibe is perfect. Their wine list has some nice, unexpected local options that really fit the mood.

The portions here are big but not crazy huge, which is perfect for sharing with friends. Prices are totally fair for what you get. We split a few dishes and everyone left happy and full!

Service was efficient even on a busy Saturday. Had a 7:30 reservation and we were seated right away. The fireplace was a nice touch. Staff was attentive without hovering.

This place is cute. Grabbed some candied orange slices dipped in chocolate to go. It was a nice little pick-me-up while walking around Salem. The shop itself has a really cozy, old-fashioned feel to it.

Been coming here for years, love their creative cookies. The fluffernutter is my go-to, and they nailed the Count Chocula flavor. Cookies are always soft and fresh. A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Lunch specials are a solid deal. The staff is consistently friendly, which is nice.

The customization here is so cool! You can really tweak your drink and meal to your taste. Jojo remembered my usual order, which was a nice touch. Makes it feel like my spot.

Cozy spot, good for a quick bite. Staff was attentive and gave solid recommendations. The space is small, so it can feel a bit tight when busy. Solid option for the area.
