I love stopping by the Ballywhack Shack for a homemade quick bite while shopping in my favorite little town on the water. A perfect convenience for the intense browser - a food shack to nourish and encourage momentum on the quest to spend! Owner, Sherry Mangus brings the nostalgia of her hometown in South Jersey to Mill Street in historic Occoquan, VA with her delicious Italian cream sodas, cappuccinos, lattes, specialty sandwiches like the Badda Bing Badda Boom, Hogan’s Hero Italian Sub, weekly specials and more - bringing you back to Italian America with one sip and bite at her yummy Shack. Walk these quaint streets of Occoquan for a small town feel of antiquing, spa indulgence, waterside dining and water sports along the fresh Reservoir. If you want to find more Italian bites, try Potomac Chocolate for handcrafted gelato (and chocolate) and their recent pop up Graffiti Cat Pizza; DiRocco’s for pasta and authentic dishes; and for The Spot on Mill for paninis and CiaoDC’s favorite Dolci Gelati gelato. Buon Appetito e ci vediamo at Ballywhack!
