As I was responding to the Jackson Star Thread, a thought came to mind- how about a thread about places local to you or that you frequent that "get it"

Here are some of mine (not all inclusive):

Stores:

Skelley's (Mboro)- Great little store, deli counter, ice cream counter. They have exceptionally good ribeye steaks and burger meat. The only thing I would change is having a real meat counter with a few more cuts. They did a great job expanding the parking lot and moving the snowmobile access point. Awesome staff!

Heath's Supermarket (CH)- Good produce, meats and deli. Reasonable prices and a friendly staff.

Heath's Hardware (CH)- Great selection, reasonable prices. The staff is perfect, they are there to help but not a pain. Good rental operation (even though they got rid of the tractor)

Captain Bart's Seafood (Mboro)- I only wish he were open a day a week in the winter. Always fresh- they buy daily, good prices. Don't judge this book by its cover.

Ledgewood Farm (Mboro Ctr Summers)- Great produce, very resonable, nice people.

Restaurants

Buckey's (Mboro)- Great bar- the barstaff is fantastic, the patrons laidback and friendly (full disclosure- I would be considered a regular). Great pub fare- ribs, chicken steaks, etc as well as specials. Great front of house and waitstaff. Another local place that expanded and paved their lot. New pool table room.

Village Kitchen (MBoro)- Great breakfast and lunch! I have never eaten dinner there so I can't comment. Great staff. Real good snowmobile access. Great operation from all appearances.

Pine Cone (Tuftonboro ?)- They have done a great job there- everytime I turn around they are expanding the dining area because they need to. Great lunch, friendly staff.

Services

Fashion Forward (Mboro)- Good haircut at a good price. Great people

Old Man Fire Protection (Mboro)- Great guy that knows his stuff- sprinklers.
