“This was one of our first stops in Salem when we visited in early September and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Really impressed with the bright flavors of the GF sorbets, and the full dairy ice cream was incredible. I opted for a scoop of the Salty PB Oreo in a fresh waffle cone- folks, this is the ultimate flavor combo. The ice cream was so good, I didn’t…”

“Excited to find a fully vegan place in Salem! I had the pumpkin latte and the chick’n ranch sandwich. Extremely generous portion and I added fries. Very delicious. The service was friendly and for a Sunday, we had no problem finding a seat. It is located inside the lil mall as well.”

“Oh man, do I love this place! They have every single candy you can imagine and then some. Just come in and choose what you want. They even have different bags that you can sell at different prices: large bags and ones that you can buy by weight of the candy that you're buying.”

“This place is excellent! The lunch special is solid - the jerk chicken is delicious and tender, served bone-in and chopped into 3-4 pieces, over peas and rice and some fried plantains - and the rest of the menu has something for everyone. I almost always get two beef and cheese patties to go, they're always warm and flavorful, and they have a bit of spice too, talk about comfort…”

“My wife and I came here for her birthday. The room on the west side was very nice and cozy. There was water and a coffee machine in the room, a mini fridge, a nice TV and a beautiful bathroom with a nice big walk in shower. The morning breakfast was very delicious and the servers were all nice. Essex St is right around the corner and has many stores…”

“This review is for the Canton room at Silsbee by Daniel's House. Fantastic period decorated BnB. Room is wonderfully decorated, comfortable and spacious. 4 exterior windows let you enjoy a 2nd story view of Essex street, with a more modern (early 20th century) updated bathroom. The Canton room does NOT have on-site parking; host will help facilitate a on-street permit. NOTE - parking in Salem is likely much more restrictive…”

“Walked by this place and had to stop in. Great, friendly, and personable bartenders! Even though they don’t serve food, their recommendations of nearby food options were superb, and included both known and hidden gems. Cider options were varied and delicious. And lastly, trivia night with Samara (Geeks who Drink) was 10/10 fun!! #WISCOuldrons”

“We absolutely love Couch Dog Brewing! We come regularly and even joined the Mug Club because it’s such a great spot to have right here locally. It’s the perfect place for everyone - dog-friendly, kid-friendly, and with plenty for adults to enjoy too. The atmosphere is always welcoming, the beer is fantastic, and the staff makes you feel right at home. So glad to have this gem in the community!…”

“This was a great spot to sit outside and enjoy a good meal while people watching. The desserts are definitely the hype! I ordered mine as a meal because I knew I would not have room if I didn’t. Totally worth it! I also had some bites of clam chowder and the other things that my family ordered at the table. Everything was delicious and the price was really good.”

“Unfortunately we didn’t go into the coffee shop or get any food because the line is so long. It is that way because this place is popular and the coffee is amazing. I saw so many locals with it that I knew it was a great spot. I did get to go shopping in there and it was just great. A nice mix of all the different styles you can…”

“I can’t recommend The Merchant enough. We took the first vacation with our 1 year old daughter and the convenience this property offered made this stop on our road trip so, so easy. The ready made snacks like chia pudding and yogurt parfaits allowed us to give our daughter nice fresh snacks upon arrival and late night when she woke up restless. Not to mention, the property is gorgeous and…”

“Tried a little of everything. Clam chowder was very good, the lobster bisque was amazing (get the extra lobster in it) Crab cakes maybe in top 5 I've had. While the salmon was in the top 3. Tuna was decent. Sticky toffy was good but I honestly expected it to be a bit better, pumpkin cheese cake was good. Service was great ( Great job Rachel!!) Atmosphere was nice.”

“I came in for lunch while working in town. Had amazing carnitas tacos, great conversation with Auntie, which created a welcoming atmosphere for me being miles away from home working. I didn't have room for dessert so she bagged it and put it in the cooler with my name for me after work! I had the best service and the best flan!”

“Do not walk past, get in, grab a slice or two and enjoy. Visiting for the day from uk, needing some pizza this place delivered. Pepperoni was delicious and ricotta and meatball even better. Lots of choice plus sodas. Really enjoyed this place, the service was friendly and attentive. Only negative is that it’s not my local pizza stop.”

“Great Hotel, awesome location! All of Salem is within walking distance but you're not right in the hustle and bustle. Love that. Beautiful, clean, spacious rooms! Only complaints are the living room fuse kept blowing out when we tried to watch TV. Also the lack of mirrors. Just 1 in the bathroom. We had 4 people in the queen suite and it was hard to get ready in the evenings.…”

Perfect balance of bacon, egg and cheese on an incredibly delicious buttery croissant. One of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in a long time. The level of care that they put into the takeout…”

“Life Alive is a seat yourself restaurant. You wait in line to order your food. There are menus you can grab by the register or you can use the overhead menu to order. I didn't want the tofu in my Rainbow Bowl and asked that it be left out and switched for avocado. Unfortunately, the person at the register seemed a bit overwhelmed and neglected to add that detail and…”

This last time, while out sightseeing and shopping, we got caught in a horrible rainstorm. When we made it back to the hotel, we asked for a couple of extra towels. Before we even got our wet shoes off up in our room, warm towels from the dryer were delivered…”

“First time to Salem and we stayed here, highly recommend. The rooms are larger than expected and very clean. Traveled for a girl's trip, so safety is always on our minds. Felt very safe here. Love the outside patio. It's a mile from downtown Salem, about a 20 min walk, and walking to the downtown also seemed very safe.”

Jacqui invited us into the kitchen for a tour—it was spotless, despite being a busy scratch kitchen. We proceeded to sit at the bar and having lived here her whole life, Jacqui regaled us with the history of the wharf and offered…”

“My friend and I stopped in to Gulu-Gulu based on a recommendation. The food and service were EXCELLENT. I highly recommend the breakfast sandwiches for a good fuel-up before exploring the city. One breakfast sandwich is enough food for one person, but can easily be shared by two people. The coffee drinks are well-made and the staff offer alternative milk options as a standard question when ordered. The staff are…”

House made blueberry lemonade was tasty and not too sweet. Short rib panini was tasty and moist and enough to share. Our side was street corn. Lovely flavor! A very nice surprise. Hope to go back soon!”
