Indie cinema showing foreign & smaller-release films accompanied by premium theater snacks & coffee. Even if you don't see a movie here I recommend getting some ice cream and taking some POSH corn to bring home.

Food scene

The Broad Street Market is a farmers' market with many great food and grocery vendors. Unfortunately, the Broad Street Market recently experienced a devastating fire which caused the rear building to close. The vendors will soon be relocated to a semi-permanent tent on 3rd Street next to the market while the building is rebuilt.
