There were a wide variety of Belgian chocolates to choose from and beautiful packaging. There were premade boxed if giving as a gift or individual options if indulging for oneself. Jacob gave suggestions and also brought out samples which sold me on some good options. I opted for a Standard box and picked two layers of boozy chocolate (yes, boozy) and one additional layer of chocolates without the adult component. I didn't purchase any Belgian beer but they looked interesting. Parking was not far in the lot nearby with reasonable parking at $1.25/hour.

I opt'd for the Monte Cristo ... so few restaurants offer it. It was excellent. The serving of coleslaw was tiny. I wished for a lot more as their recipe is a very coarse chop and vinegar based. I also could not resist a slice of Key Lime pie. Shame on me. The dining room and restroom are spotless.

My french toast was underwhelming. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant itself was small and dated, but they seem to get the usual locals that come in who they know by name. There was one young lady who was talking orders, making coffee, running the register, total front of house. The coolest thing they had was a wall of assorted hot sauces to zhuzh up your dish.

I enjoy finding hidden gems on Yelp. An excellent small business like Mrs. Mason's deserves more attention. Mrs. Mason's specializes in handmade premium brittle and brittle bonbons. The owner was the only person when I visited on a Sunday morning. She gave me samples, and everything I tried in Mrs. Mason's brittle and bonbon collection was delicious, crunchy, and buttery. I bought an 8 oz. gift box of Heart & Soul Brittle ($26.95) for my college professor. I also purchased an 8 oz. bag of Bare-Naked Cashew Brittle ($22.95) for my mom. They both thought the brittle was delicious. A bit pricey, but it makes an excellent gift for anyone who likes brittle or bonbons.

The brittle has a nice thicker layer of the toffee, two layers of the white chocolate as well as the semi-sweet chocolate. It's a nice balance of crunchy hard toffee and melt in your mouth chocolates. Makes for a fantastic holiday gift and treat for friends and family alike. The smaller 4 ounce is great to accompany a charcuterie gift set or a stocking stuffer too.

My only hold up with this place is that the space is too large and not well set up. You have to walk all the way along a counter to get to the chocolate case but then walk all the way back up front to check out. Additionally, there's not much decor. They could definitely benefit from some.

Huge selection of gifts, including some fun Schitt's Creek stuff and Golden Girls, and also lots of candy and chocolate. They had Coffee Crisp which surprised me, it's a Canadian chocolate bar and I've never seen it outside of Canada. They are still requiring masks as of right now (6/13/21) which was nice, also. Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it's a bit pricey - most of the gifts I saw were $9.99 and up, for small things, and they had some Sanders one-piece chocolates for 75c (I've seen them 25-50c in other stores). Otherwise, this was a fun store to browse and I will be back at some point.

Add that right wingers would leave the place with anger and a big headache, you have a place I am glad to live near and EBS would have dropped lots of cash. I keep coming back for the fruit slices that are thicker than Macy's. I also like the selection of retro candy from my distance past childhood. I had to buy a birthday present for one of those "hard-to-buy" 20s generation so I knew I could get some cool stuff she would love. I found some socks, a note pad to write down her evil thoughts, and tennis shoes erasers. Even a bag for the introvert she is to put it all in. She loved all of it and wanted to know where the store this store is located. They have their Christmas stuff out and a warning that some of it would not have been on your grandmother's tree unless your grandma was like a 1960s hippie. Worth the drive just to come here, but you also get to enjoy the other shops in beautiful downtown Ferndale. Parking on the street, lots in the back, and other lots around the downtown. $1 an hour.

On the restaurant side - we got waited on by a very attentive and polite waiter who explained the menu items in great detail. I have to say that the selection is interesting - some unexpected combinations of ingredient on the assortment of sandwiches. I had a hard time picking just one. We finally settled on "fig and pig" and salmon croissant. Both didn't disappoint! Croissant came with a copious amount of smoked salmon over a jam spread. I wouldn't think about such pairing- but it worked! Fig and pig entailed bacon over a goat cheese spread and jam. Another great one. I'm intrigued and will make another trip to try other offerings. The store side had a good selection of wine, deli meats, large selection of cheese and gourmet selections of chocolate. When I say gourmet I'm talking flavors I've not heard of before- like mushroom, and much more. And not cheap (so must be good?? ). I'd like to return when I have more time and explore the store some more.
