Just beyond an unassuming, little green gate, lies a treasure trove of chocolatey goodness known as Stowaway Sweets. Established in 1929, the store boasts a fan base including the likes of Franklin Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, the Queen of England and Katherine Hepburn.

Owner, Alicia Canniffe, still incorporates early-period antique equipment with which her chocolatiers temper the chocolate, and employees build exquisite custom baskets for all holidays and occasions—Easter, weddings and party favors, to name a few.

Part of the magic of this store is in seeing just how many different types of fudge and chocolate can be packed into such a small, quaint space.

This is hands down the BEST choclate shop anywhere. We have friends from all over who insist on stopping in to Stowaway's as soon as they get to M'Head. My husband calls it his "drug-store", or maybe I do :) The Caniffe Family has kept the product remarkable ! See's eat your heart out....
