Caffeine & Sweet Pick-Me-Ups
Whether it’s 7 a.m. call times or post-awards exhaustion, these are my go-to spots for fast energy that keeps us going.
Order ahead with plenty of time they are usually very very busy. Remember they are working hard so kindness goes along way.
Starbucks at Foxwoods | Mashantucket, CT
virgin daiquiris = treat for dancers!
The Neon Palm Daiquiri Bar
Where We Actually Eat (and Re-Eat)
Order Head for a quicker convenient pick up. They tend to be super busy and are also working very hard. So please be kind. They are doing the best I can.
Panda Express
Yum! We’re looking for a quick but delicious burger. This is definitely where you wanna go.

Reservations, reservations reservations! The food is OK, but the atmosphere is so much fun and the drinks are of course are amazing
Sugar Factory Foxwoods
If you’re looking to splurge and have an absolutely delicious meal, this is definitely where you wanna go

Fun Breaks Between Numbers
We actually rent this place out for a team event and they do have what they call a dancers package now for food and bowling time is a ton of fun
High Rollers Luxury Lanes & Sports Lounge
You can make any dancer, happy here dipping dots popcorn. It doesn’t get better than this.
Dippin' Dots & Doc Popcorn: Tanger Outlet Mall at Foxwoods
We always hit the outlets at least once it’s a great way to sneak in some shopping while the girls are rehearsing or resetting. Cute shops, clean space, and air-conditioned bliss.
