The original JP Licks ice cream store. Perhaps "the" JP meeting spot. Gets very busy late into the night in the summer. Lots of space too, if you need a place to sit down.

If you are finicky about your coffee, then this is the spot. Uses fabulous Barrington Coffee Roasting beans (from the Berkshires). For many, the best cup of coffee in JP.

JP's most economical grocery store - good if you are doing a big grocery run. Not as close as City Feed or Whole Foods, however, and not as high a quality produce, meats, etc.

Beautiful, beautiful park. Olmsted-designed, and it shows - get lost roaming the paved or unpaved trails in the Arboretum. Great in any season - it seems like there is always something in bloom.
