A couple of years ago we were in Steveston, Canada, which is Storybrooke in Once Upon a Time. We had lunch in Granny's cafe. That was fun. I have a friend who likes to eat in restaurants that were featured in movies.

On this same trip, we also visited Newport Rhode Island and I had the bright idea to drive over to Mystic Ct to check out Mystic Pizza. It was a scenic drive and took just about an hour to get there. We could now check CT off our list of states but wish we had more time to spend there. Downtown Mystic was really cute and went into quite a few shops but everything is so expensive. I did get the shirt at Mystic Pizza that they wear in the movie.
Thank you! I decided to google my question yesterday because I thought somebody would've compiled a list or two over the years. LOL. Sure enough, there are quite a few out there. The same ones show up in a lot of them, but it gives me some good ideas. Road trip!!
What did you think of Serendipity? I would love to try the frozen hot chocolate! My husband tried the Wahlburgers at Logan while waiting for our flight home and he enjoyed it.
LOL- Well, and how were they? Was someone standing by waiting to hand you a towel or mint? That could be a spin off from this thread, fanciest or most unique bathrooms people have visited! I've been to the Madonna Inn ages ago to visit(never got the chance to stay overnight) and supposedly the men's room has a waterfall urinal.I used the facilities at the Pretty Woman hotel in Beverly Hills.
Yes, I was afraid you would say that. I've read quite a few of the reviews online and they are similar. The pictures of the frozen hot chocolate look so good though! I've been able to pick up a canister of frozen hot chocolate mix from Sur La Table and make my own. It was expensive but not bad. If you're ever in Sacramento, the frozen hot chocolate from Ginger Elizabeth is delicious!We found Serendipity to be a waste of time and money. The place was packed and we waited for about an hour. Inside, the dining area was really crowded- far too many tables for the floor space- and DIRTY. I think it's just too packed for them to be able to do a decent job of sweeping/cleaning between customers, but that's not an excuse for food on the floor, paper on the floor, sticky tables, etc. I don't remember what we ate, but it was not good. Everything was the same texture and it was unevenly heated, as if the food had been precooked and they'd put it in the microwave to heat it up. The frozen hot chocolate sounds better than it is- think frozen chocolate from DUnkin Donuts or someplace like that. We were really, really annoyed that we'd spent too much time and money on such a crappy experience.
I had to get my own towel like a savage.LOL- Well, and how were they? Was someone standing by waiting to hand you a towel or mint?
