“ Fruit is perfect - kept in real good condition. And real fruit ice cream - yum! ”

“ Gourmet toasties....hands down the best toasted "ham & cheese" I've ever had. Generous size, ham off the bone, two cheeses including swiss cheese, relish and mustard, melts in your mouth! Their Biscoff cheesecake is also delicious. Quality food, not good for my diet! But absolutely worth it, thank you. ”
