Specialty shop and Cafe
In the village of Cazenovia about 15 mins away, this specialty shop is reminiscent of the Netflix series, Schitt's Creek but with an extra bonus, relaxing seating area to enjoy a cappuccino or mocktail!
Specialty items from food to clothing to jewelry and cosmetics, this tiny shop is great fun to explore and supports many small businesses. They carry this amazing specialty ice cream, Jeni's, that is pricey, but hands down the best packaged ice cream...ever. Love to sit and work sipping on a vanilla latte.
