Easy parking, not a paid lot. It is for residents only so you might get a parking ticket. Not more than $25 if you think it's worth it.

Great little farm stand - not a full grocery. Just 2 miles down the road, great for grabbing basics or on your way home from Wingaersheek Beach. It's on the same road to the beach.

Convenient small grocery store with all the essentials. If you want easy parking, and avoid the huge Market Basket, this is a good option. Located south of here if you are coming home from Beverly or surrounding areas.
