The wide, tree-lined streets provide opportunities for neighbors to meet up through parades, First Friday art shows, and events such as the ever-popular chocolate festival. Locals enjoy grabbing a gourmet grilled cheese and craft brew at the Wheel Barrel and visiting Bradley’s Corner Café for the best comfort food in town.
