Essay question: Why should I drink here?
Nora’s Sugar Shack is situated in a cozy bungalow and you’ll most likely be greeted by Nora herself and her dogs when you stop in. Between the knick-knacks and comfy couches that constitute the inside decor and the laid-back patio outside, it’s way more akin to visiting a friend with great taste in wine, beer and cigars – who lets you smoke inside! – than it is to a typical bar.
