This is THE must visit food attraction in Erie, PA. Only open in the warm months, if you’ve never been to Sara’s, well.. you just have to try it (and be sure to get their ice cream). Eat here before or after visiting the beach, Waldameer park, or Presque Isle State Park.

If you don’t have a Wegmans where you are from... some say Wegmans is the best grocery store in the world and they are only a few states in the North-East area. Worth your time if you need groceries or you want quick, pre-made meals, beer and wine.
