Every weekend in the summer we enjoy shopping the farmers market and grabbing a bloody mary. Fletches has been our go-to place, however that will be changing. Many, many times last summer and now the past two weekends this summer, the make you own bloody mary bar has no fixings on it. All bowls of cheese, pickles, peppers, mushrooms, etc. were completely empty. Others were saying they asked the bartender (Ryan) at the bar to bring stuff out but said he was too busy.

Read moreNot a bad place I guess. We walked in from the adjoining establishment and took a seat at the bar. Nobody was there except a dog. I went to the bathroom and still waited. Finally a guy walked out and said they're closed. I told him that in fact the doors were open and lights were on which implied that they are open. He was not interested and simply repeated that they were closed. Not terribly friendly. Lock your damn door if you don't want...
