If you go to Cape Neddick to visit the Nubble Lighthouse (and you really should!), make sure to stop at Goldenrod Kisses for a bite to eat in their restaurant or for a treat from their awesome candy store. With its taffy machine and soda fountain, this place makes you feel as if you've traveled back in time--and the candy is delicious! You'll find a few other gift shops in Cape Neddick, too.
