    If you're in the mood for something sweet, you could do worse than the homemade ice cream sandwich.

    Try the bloody mary: comes with either a lemon, lime, or olive. Top 3 in the area.

    Try the homemade blackberry jam. For me, the biscuit is just an excuse for ordering it. Share both.

    We practically had to wait on ourselves. Food at dinner wasn't anything to write home about. Considering all of the other amazing options in the area, I'd suggest skipping it.
