Sharon & Bob’s Guidebook
Food scene
“Mom and Pop” restaurant owned by the same family for over 40 years. Delicious burgers but be prepared to use a lot of napkins! I used this place to “test” if Sharon was the right girl for me back in 1991. She passed with flying colors! “Old school” so don’t bother looking for a website!
