    Food- 4/5 Overall experience- 5/5…read more It was a fun spot to stop at to break up our drive back to Boston. The lot was small but many people were coming in and out so we didn't have to wait long to get a parking spot or outdoor seating. There are two shops: the deli and market with different vibes and items inside. The market is a quick shop with some snacks, drinks, coffee, and knickknacks. The deli is where the hot/cooked foods are at with some other specialty foods. The food was overall ok, nothing noteworthy. The main attraction is their Mac and cheese that had been circulating my IG feed. Don't think it's life changing but the shops have curated selections of local goods that are reasonable priced to get some last minute treats. Pass on the general tso(?) and the potstickers in my opinion unless you're really craving it. The desserts looked amazing and would definitely get one next time

    We stopped in on Thursday evening about an hour or so before they closed. Brattleboro was on our…read moreroute home from our trip to New Hampshire so it was a no brainer to stop in for a quick bite to break up our trip back to NY. We were able to get a spot in front with no issue, but I imagine that this was because it was a week day. We chose the Mac and cheese and the maple pulled pork. Both were worth the hype in my opinion. The mac and cheese was super creamy and paired well with the tender pulled pork. The baked goods were nothing to write home about. Maybe we just chose the wrong items? We tried: Oatmeal cookie - good, but not amazing. Chocolate chunk/ peanut butter cookie - stale as heck and basically inedible. I always am leery of saran wrapped cookies that are out on display because its impossible to know if there are actually fresh. The giant stacks of cookies were too enticing to pass up on. The chocolate cookie we purchased was definitely not fresh at all. $3.29 down the tubes - lesson on saran wrapped cookies learned (again). Carrot cake whoopie pie and original whoopie pie - both tasty, but the cake was too thick for my personal liking. We sat in the small outdoor seating area to eat. This was a nice little reprieve from the car ride.

    Nice little cafe in downtown Salem. It was full at lunchtime when we went so there was a wait for a…read moretable. They don't like for you to wait inside so we were firmly directed outside where some of us found Adirondack chairs to sit in. Good thing we were the only ones waiting. After about 20 minutes we were seated at a table near the candy case. A seat of temptation if ever there was one. Tried the Wurst Sampler and the wursts were good, especially the knockwurst. The sauerkraut and mustard went well with them. The side of potatoes were ok. I didn't detect much bacon and onion influence on their taste. Maybe I was just overwhelmed with the flavor of the wursts. Service once we were seated was excellent. We did not resist the candy case temptation and took home a selection for later. They were quite good, especially the ones with dark chocolate.

    If you look up "quaint" in the dictionary, you'll probably find a picture of the interior of…read moreSteininger's. I don't believe it's changed much since my first visit here some 15 years ago - same wall and floor decor. The draws here are their confections, their breads, and their homemade soups. I've had some problems with service being a bit inconsistent (such as today's visit), but the quality of the food here will keep me coming back. Today 2 of us came in for lunch, and we each ordered the soup-and-half-a-sandwich deal. The soups change daily and are given to you hand-written on a piece of scrap paper. Today they got our order only 50% right. My soup, a broccoli, spinach, leek soup was delicious, with a rich stock. The other soup was a bowl of something not ordered, but we kept it anyway. It was also delicious, just not what we ordered. For the half-sandwich, it was my turn. I ordered a turkey sandwich - there are 2 of them on the menu, and the waitress even double checked to make sure she put in the right one. I ordered the one on whole wheat bread, but I got the other one, which came out on a flaky croissant. Again, it was delicious, just not what I ordered. I wasn't going to order dessert, but I tried to succumb when I saw that besides their homemade confections, they also serve chocolate cheesecake made by the nuns at New Skete, topped with their own homemade raspberry sauce. Yet another disappointment, they were out of it. So today's overall visit was not up to par, though the food (even if they didn't get it quite right), was.
