The Gathering has great prices and we always find the perfect gift there. The only problem is the service at the front counter. We were in on 6/6/24 before noon and the lady working couldn't be bothered to behalf way pleasant. This has happened before and very disappointing.

I've been here many times. I hope to head out there one day and grab lunch. Amazingly delicious fudge.
