Good coffee, GREAT pumpkin bread (although all the baked goods are delicious), and plenty of seating both inside and outside. Especially cozy after skiing.

I can't recommend this place enough—the food and cocktails are sublime. Great for a date night or special dinner out, but plan ahead and make reservations to avoid long waits (since everyone knows it's good).

The Original Mast Store is so nostalgic and quaint. Check out the candy barrel, unique gifts, and old-timey sodas. We LOVE their selection of jams and hot sauces.
