We just left Yankee Candle Village and most restaurants were closed that day. On recommendation from YCV staff, we went to Whately’s for lunch. TALK ABOUT INCREDIBLE BURGERS! We’re only out that way once a year (up from Maryland), but I think this will be part of our annual visit.

Great place with truck parking. Alittle nostalgia, stepping back into the 90s or even later. Breakfast food was on point no complaints. Servers respectful and knowledgeable
