First opened as Poole's Pie Shop in 1947 before switching to a diner, Poole's is the sort of restaurant that is part of the fabric of the community. The original horseshoe counters, recently restored, are available to book and also open for walk-ins. They also have a much larger dining space in a former warehouse next door... More info

The food was incredible and the service was even better. Sarah was one of the best servers I've had; knowledge, attentive, new silverware with a table wipe after every course, etc. Highly recommend! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Price per person: $60–70

This place is truly one of a kind. I first must praise the dedication of the absolutely INCREDIBLE waitstaff. They know the menu like the back of their hand, and are fantastic at making personalized recommendations based on each guests taste. The food is consistently a hit. My favorites are the bibb lettuces and mac & cheese (I know, basic— but it gets the job done every time). They have a fantastic assortment of rotating vegetable options and the desserts are to die for. The space itself is beautiful, they managed to expand the original building into a functional space while not making it obvious the two sections are from different time periods; the vintage charm carries to the larger dining room seamlessly. I cannot believe it took me going so many times before writing this review! I’ll come back again and again. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Price per person: $40–50 Recommendation for vegetarians: Somewhat recommend
