“My girls and I attempted to eat at the Salem retreat on our first morning of our trip. We waited 20 minutes for a table after watching 7-10 people be seat AFTER we were given a buzzer to wait. We left and came to Dotty & Rays. We got a table as soon as we walked in, had water brought over immediately, drink and food orders promptly taken. The food was fantastic. We had one part of our order missing and once they realized the issue, it was remedied with speed and courtesy. Everyone was very friendly and renewed our experience in Salem. We enjoyed it some much we came back this morning. This is the place to come to a good meal and pleasant experience to start your day. Come to Dotty and Rays!”

“There were seven of us for brunch today at 11.30 am. The drinks were delicious - the food was incredible. I especially loved the Arepa. I hadn’t had an arepa since I was in Venezuela over a decade ago.”

“The cookies are delicious!”

“My husband and I sat outside and had a lovely snack in the sun, away from most of the hustle & bustle that October brings to Salem. We thoroughly enjoyed the butternut squash hummus, falafel, and cauliflower & quinoa tabouleh but the real highlight for us was the apple cider! Holy. It was the best we had on our trip around New England. Not too sweet, served nice & hot, lightly spiced and so, so good! The service was wonderful as well! Best of luck to this crew, we wish you much success & hope to see you next fall!🍂☺️”

“We stumbled upon Half & Half while searching for a place to get breakfast and stopped in with our 2 yo. Very cute interior with a friendly staff and delicious food. My wife absolutely loved her avocado toast with eggs and my breakfast sandwich was perfectly grilled. We ordered chocolate chip pancakes for our son who also chomped on my home fries and fresh fruit from my wife’s plate. The person who waited on us (the owner?) was exceptionally friendly and stopped off to talk through all of the various types of butter on the table (no, seriously, like four different kinds and all equally amazing!). We will definitely be back for lunch — and more butter.”

“We first found mercy tavern last October! We planned a quick trip again this year and it was on our list of places to return to! We absolutely love the atmosphere, food and amazing drinks! Can’t wait to go back.”

“Best restaurant around! cocktails are amazing and the food is the freshest and most creative around! HIGHLY recommend!”

“We just had our wedding at The Grove, and the experience was top notch. Staff, food, and atmosphere were spot on every step of the way. We need to give a special shout out to Julia, who coordinated every little detail while making everyone feel at ease and welcome. Her efforts leading up to the wedding and through the whole event were very impressive, down to the smallest details of our requests that she knew by heart, as well as her experience and input on the other small details we wouldn’t have even thought of. The organization is very lucky to have her. Thank you to all of the incredible staff for such a wonderful day. Down to the extra gift the morning after!”

“Great service! Great food! Great atmosphere! Definitely worth the trip!”

“Notch is my favorite place place to hang out in Salem, and it feels like a European beer hall. Their beers are so good. Their Cerne Pivo makes winter so much better. The staff is kind, the music is great, and it’s such a chill place.”

“If you want some good coffee and pastries, I highly recommend Drop Cafe. I tried a Freddo Espresso for the first time and it was amazing. The breakfast sandwiches were delicious and staff is super friendly. we will definitely be back for more!”

“Over the past 4 months or so I have called with various questions, mostly having to do with your chicken pies. Every time I have called the person who answered my call was able to answer my questions quickly and politely. I appreciate the efficient service as that seems to be a rarity these days. Thank you so much.”

“I am a huge fan of key lime pie and have sampled it at pretty much every opportunity. Each time, I find something that isn’t an A+. The crust is too grainy or crumbly, the bakery has added meringue (which I like on lemon but not lime), or—and this is the most common offender—there is entirely too much lime in the recipe. But the key lime pie I had at Caramel was exceptional in every possible way, especially in its balance of lime flavor. I didn’t try anything else there, so I can’t vouch for the macarons or other goodies, but if you love key lime pie, RUN to this bakery!”

“A fantastic gem with excellent customer service! Get The Hero coffee, it was delicious. Everything was so good and fresh!”

“It is so wonderful to hear that the Agawam Diner is still in business. I grew up in Portsmouth, NH and from 1975?-1989, my mother had to take me for a periodic checkup to an allergy physician in Danvers and most every time on the way back home we would stop at the diner to have something to eat. I am now 55 and living in Florida, but I will never my several visits to the Agawam Diner. For those that haven't eaten there yet, do yourself a favor and stop in. You will not be disappointed”

“Superb all around experience 👍👍. Chef Daniel is 🔝. Great wine and Bar programs 🍷🍾🍹”

“Best roast beef you’re going to find if you love a piping hot, perfectly rare cooked north shore style roast beef on a toasted bun. I always liked roast beef’s but Bella’s turned me onto them big time in the last few months and I now regularly every week or two make the 20 minute drive from New Hampshire to Bella’s and get a beef. As a small business owner I have a ton of respect for the owner that I still haven’t personally talked to but he always says hi and waves from the back where he consistently produces amazing food and I always see him doing things like bringing lunch down to the firehouse- small businesses that do things like this for the community should always be recognized. Long story short- give this place a shot and you’ll likely find your new favorite spot for roast beef and other great food!”

“great place!!! the owner did a great job with this place. clean and modern etc. 5 stars”

“Stopped in this past Saturday, on a trip up from Florida. Watched the dog training class for a bit and their welcome inside, and sampled a couple of the "offerings". Great brews! As a former home brewer, brought back a couple memories (Porter and IPA). And the bartender was GREAT!! 🙂”

“My friends and I went to Jolie Tea Company for a bachelorette party and had an absolute blast! The tea was phenomenal, and the atmosphere was fantastic. Wearing the fascinators and gloves was so much fun—other guests even commented on how iconic and cute we all looked. Highly recommend for a clean, classy, and truly memorable time! Thank you, Jolie!”

“jinelly was Amazing and food was delicious.”

“Fresh, local, delicious! Will be back! Great service! So yummy!! Hubby's new fave restaurant, super fresh!”
