Shady Glen is a Manchester icon, locally famous for its homemade ice cream, signature "Bernice Original" cheeseburger, vintage 1950s style diner and service. In 2012, it was recognized by the James Beard Foundation as an American Classic It only accepts CASH as payment. The fried Cheese is excellent and well known, I love the maple walnut ice cream!

This is one of the best Hibachi grills and the sushi bar is my favorite. We usually go and get a booth and order off the menu but the Hibachi is always a good choice!

We love treating ourselves to an ice cream at the dairy bar and looking at the animals such as the cows they get the milk from for the ice creams, also a nice opportunity to see some horses. we recommend treating yourself a UConn tradition by trying some of the homemade ice cream! Over 200,000 customers visit the Dairy Bar annually and enjoy more than 24 flavors of ice cream created at the Dairy Bar.

My family LOVES Gerry's donuts, especially the marble ones, which sell out fast! We buy Gerry's donuts for functions whenever possible. The Donuts are so good you have to get there early because they always sell out. The Donuts are so good they even won the CTNOW 2017 Best in show award!

Shopping

Evergreen walk is the best open air mall you could want, fantastic restaurants and great stores. Very easy to get to and you can even take the bus there. Munson's Chocolate and LL Bean are on one end of the complex. The center of the complex has a great fire pit with chairs to sit around it.
