Get Away for Lunch

We found that we just had to get out of the hospital. We liked to go for lunch. We would go after the “get lunch rush” crowd and feel like we had an outing.

       Some of our favorites - (you can add yours):

          Russ’s Luncheonette (right turn out of parking lot) – just past the 7/11 on Springfield St. (.6 of a mile) – open seven days for breakfast and lunch. Mon. – Sat 5:30 ‘til 2:00 – Sun 5:30 ‘til 1:00.
Tel. 736-9754 (Take out orders taken)

• For the following restaurants, take a left out of the parking lot, Springfield St. becomes Chestnut St. – go to Jefferson Ave. – you have to make a right turn – go two blocks to a traffic light at Main St. – take a left – you are going south on Main St. – the street numbers descend. There is a McDonald's on the right about 1/4 of a mile. As you go south on Main St. you will pass the bus station at the intersection of Liberty St. - there is a railroad overpass after the bus station called "the arch".
