The knoiwledgeable staff and high standards at this shop make it a great and trustworthy to both buy your pets and accessorize them as well!

Sea-View Optical

Seaview Optical wins hands down for superb customer service and personal attention. Owner Richard told us to compare his prices with the chain store on my optical plan.
He was able to give us top of the line frames & lenses for less than the "special insurance" price. With Seaview, the add-ons still add up to savings. For the children, they adjusted the lenses & fixed bent frames tirelessly without additional charge & our daughter really liked the friendly, knowledgeable staff.

PROS: Knowledgeable staff and great selection at unbeatable prices
CONS:

Hip Hop Sweet Shoppe

Wow! This place is great. A front counter serves up ice cream treats and the shop has a variety of old fashioned, hard to find candies from the good ole' days. The real action comes when you book a childs party. The kids get an ice cream dance party with make your own sundaes, pizza dancing and their very own chocolate craft to decorate with candies galore and take home. Instant, awesome party favor! My 10 yr. old chose the individual chocolate houses and everyone loved them! Great place for a party or a quick after movie ice cream.

PROS: Great soda shoppe atmosphere for parties
CONS: limited public space for ice cream when parties are going on
