    Gayle's is conveniently located on Main street/89A Cottonwood. This is the only chocolate candy store I've seen in Arizona that makes all its own chocolate and I can say it is outstandingly delicious. Everything I tried tastes phenomenal. Service is fast, friendly and they have a large selection of favorites like chocolate covered pretzels which I had to get. They ship all over the USA and internationally so I know where I'm going to send gifts to my friends and family. Highly recommended.

    Delightfully salvageable disaster.

    Buyer be AWARE! My girlfriend was ecstatic when I got her the Kate royal wedding high heel shoe, so imagine our surprise when, shortly after slipping them on and heading out for the evening, they quickly melted around her feet! Turns out, when they say these shoes are "chocolatey," it isn't just clever marketing. They're being literal! At first, we were naturally furious, but thankfully, I'm a bit of a "foot man," and we were able to salvage the evening.

    This is the real deal! Fantastic creations to delight the chocolate loving crowd. If you are in Cottonwood, be sure not to miss the artistic and creative creations at this new shop!

    After visiting the Jerome Historical Society, it was time for some shopping and sightseeing! At the…read moretop of my bookmarked list was Rickeldoris. I love general store old fashion candy and popcorn. When you first step in the smell of butter and caramel popcorn immediately hugs your senses in a warm embrace. There are rows of bagged candies, rows and rows of truffles in the glass case, and retro candy scattered throughout. It would be a bit overwhelming if I wasn't a popcorn / candy nut. I skipped over the gummies and candy you can find anywhere, skimmed over the retro offering and beelined to the popcorn. I settled for the large bags of caramel and kettle which were reasonably priced. Another customer behind me commented it was too high priced but you get high quality ingredients. Easily taking a tie for the second spot for best popcorn I've had in my life. Both the caramel & kettle are crisp, few to no kernels, and is the perfect level of sweetness. Our family snacked on the bags days after and it stayed crisp and delicious to the last bite. Regrets were made on not buying more; lol. (#1 Happy Popcorn booth in Ensenada & #2 CGV in Buena Park) Highly recommend! Yum!!

Everybody was extremely polite, helpful, and very efficient. The food quality was amazing. I would never guess I could get such quality Alaskan crab legs in the middle of Arizona.

To top it off, they brought me a delicious cannoli with a candle in it for my birthday. I will definitely make a point of making another trip up this way to return for another dinner hopefully soon.

We were seated at Mary's table and she was a really fun server. We would ask for her next time we come. We started with one old-fashioned and it was very nice. For our entrées, we had the carbonara and the mahi-mahi with seasonal vegetables and we each had a side salad. Dan thought his carbonara was just average. It didn't have a lot of flavor and was a little on the thin side and wasn't sticking to the pasta. He would try something different next time. I very much enjoyed my mahi-mahi with a side of vegetables. I would get it again. Overall, it was a good experience.

We originally thought this would be typical drive-in fare, but the quality and freshness exceeded my expectations. It's really a step above most other similar greasy diner and drive-in establishments. Burgers here are extremely customizable. To save time waiting in line, Bing's provides slips of paper by the counter to fill in for ease of ordering. Simply fill one out and pay at the register to get an order started. A lot of items seem to be made fresh to order, so the food took about 20 minutes to arrive. Deluxe Burger, Bacon Jam, Mayo, Lettuce, Onion, Tomato, Pickle ($10.25) - This is a huge burger, tall enough to make it difficult to compress enough to fit in the mouth. They use pretty high quality ingredients here and seem to hand cut the veggies. The lettuce is nice and crisp, the tomato is thick cut and fresh, the red onion is an entire slice instead of rings. The pickles are much larger than typical chips but still have that kind of neon-green sheen to them. Mayo is only spread on the top bun slice, enough to lubricate the burger, but not too much to become too messy to eat. The burger patty is excellent. It seems to be made from fresh beef and then only slightly smashed from a ball on the flat top. It's a THICK patty, served piping hot with good char and robust beefy flavor. The interior is cooked until well done with no pink, but it's not dried out at all, and there's more than enough moisture coming from the other ingredients to balance it out. The bacon jam that I added for $1 is a fantastic addition. It's sweet from sugars and caramelized onion and full of bacon umami. The burger as a whole isn't very greasy at all. (5/5) Large Hand Cut Fries ($6) - The fries are relatively thin, shoestring-like, fried to a darker golden brown giving a good caramelized potato flavor. The interiors remain mostly fluffy, although some of the smaller fries approach being dry. The exteriors are mostly crisp, but much softer than, say, battered fries. The fries are appropriately salted and peppered, meaning that they are nice to eat without any accompanying ketchup or other dip. They are on the more oily side compared to some other places. (4/5) Bing's serves food with really fresh flavors. It's simple fare, but very high quality. I'd definitely return for more if I'm ever back in town. Bathrooms - One unisex room outside the restaurant on the North side. Note: Bing's charges a 3% credit card fee. This is labeled on the menu (actually the menu states 3.9% fee)

Our first morning, we had Todd, who was very attentive and took good care of us. We had the coffee, muffin, one pancake and a breakfast sandwich with bacon and the fruit skewer, along and a mocha. Everything was very good. We were pleasantly surprised how good the pancake was as my husband is very fussy about his pancakes. I was worried the bacon would have a spicy cake, but the cake is very minimal. The bacon was delicious! Our second day was not as good of an experience as we had a younger server who was not at the level of Todd. We laid our vouchers on the side of the table, just as we had done the day before, and this he completely missed them and brought our bill with full charges. Therefore, he had to go back and redo the bill. He didn't seem fully awake. LOL. He also was not as friendly as Todd. Next time we go, we will ask for Todd. This time, we got the latte and muffin, and also shared the traditional breakfast with bacon and fruit. It was perfect for splitting.. we will definitely come back again next time we are in town. This is a really cute café.

Everyone was so friendly, the regulars there drinking, the bartender/general managers, and other staff clearly have a lot of pride in the location, providing togetherness. I loved hearing the bartender tell others about that evening's music bingo- how it was created as something fun for the locals who they had always heard talking about or enjoying music, so they created a whole night for them- We also got the story of the randomness of the folded money in the wall stones- and what started as random became the community giving to charity through a fun bar secret means- Oh, and the wonderfulness of the team coming together to close down for a hard earned week of vacation- not just rotating schedules, but all relaxing together- the customer service, the management of it all, it really was a great model for micro craft brewery We had pints of Hop Deposits solid hops hazy hoppy Broken Pick pineapple juice flavor balanced Broadway -best golden I've had, perfect balance of roasty and of course Modern Miner- all untapped 5 stars; yup, we got the great beer we wanted- super sad we can't buy in MD- we'd have our fridge stocked regularly & music bingo would be our date night- cannot recommend enough- hubby even bought a hat to remember (though sadly TSA lost it moving our bags- and he says it's ok, but I know he's super bummed- that's the impact of happy times at this location)
