I understand that folks go to Sawyers because it is nostalgic, but come on! If the locals stop going there, why bother?

When Jack was there, the ice cream was made with real cream and real flavors.
Food was awesome. After his demise, the boys tried to make a go of it and did OK. New owners mess up the original philosophy and now its a tourist trap. Go out back and if you can glimpse one of the ice cream containers, you will see its made elsewhere.

Last year, I made the mistake of ordering a $23 greasy, overcooked calm plate. when I find Lyons Den had clams at $10! I complained to the elderly woman in the back of the counter and she basically says sorry, your free to leave!
