Weston | Small Veggie Farm

Right up the road from Suite Blueberry! This is only maybe a little more than a mile from your suite! So walking there is also possible. Open seasonally, spring, summer, and fall.

Westport | Eating & Shopping

Countless incredible stores and shopping and beyond, BEYOND delicious restaurants in Downtown Westport and the surrounding areas. From great coffee spots, to killer NYC'esque food, it’s all right there. Stores like Sundance, Anthropologie, Gigi & Joes, Green & Tonic (plant-based yumminess cafe), Pink Sumo (sushi) , Spotted Horse, Mexicue, Little kitchen (gereat Chinese), The Whelk ($$$), Saugutuck Sweets (ice cream), Bar Taco (on the water), and for Hibachi, definitely check out Sakura on the Post Road, maybe 5 minutes from downtown. (go hungry, the portions are large😂), Tengda (Japanese/Asian Fusion) is right over there as well(excellent). Terrian also has an incredible restaurant/cafe inside their dreamy store. Beautiful place for even just a coffee or tea (you'll definitely come home with a plant or something from there haha). Food shopping for the suite can be done at Trader Joes Westport, Whole Foods (Westport too), Stop and Shop Westport, Fresh Market (Westport), or the cool brand new, little supermarket in Weston center called Lily's Weston Market. Great liquor store (Peters) in that same little center. Grab and go food: Layla's (middle eastern/falafel/hummus etc...killer! Gaetano's (the absolute BEST Italian sandwiches, pastas, etc.,and catering in Westport (only take-out), Organika for smoothies, wraps and salad (the other end of Westport-only take-out) I'm missing dozens of incredible eating spots here, but these are some of my faves. :) Shopping: Sunglass Hut, Patagonia, The Gap, Barnes and Nobel, and Urban Outfitters, L'occitane, Blue Mercury, Sundance, West Elm, Williams Sonoma, Vineyard Vines, Athleta, just to name just a few.
Spotted Horse. An absolute favorite place to eat on such a pretty street with all new stores and shopping. Even a great CBD store!

You can come here for a cappuccino or tea, or book with the Garden Cafe for an incredible lunch, brunch, or dinner. The ambiance here is wonderful. Their selection of artisan home decor items is also unmatched. And it's all under one roof.

Incredible food of all types, burgers (an amazing veggie burger too!), killer salads, and large portions as well. Great ambiance at night and outdoor seating in the warmer months. A super popular spot for locals.

Yummy tacos and margaritas! Gets pretty crowded in the summer on weekends. Very kid friendly, and can be pretty "loud" and festive at times. Great bar here, too. And Bar Taco is right on the river so its super pretty and you can eat outside.

Easton | Fruit Picking!

Only 15 minutes away. Pick your own apples, peaches, or berries! Depending on what is currently in season. And they also have an adorable petting farm across the road. If you’re here during peach season, be sure to grab one of their homemade pies. All of their pies are to. Die. For.

Some of the most delicious vegan food you’ll ever eat. Cafe style, for morning and lunches. I think they’re open until 6pm. Their smoothies and Açaí bowls are incredible. Their salads are incredible as well. A must go to!

100% vegan / plant-based. Amazing everything. Their pancakes get an OMG. Their smoothies…wow! It’s a grab and go kind of place, as seating is super limited and more of a take-out place. Highly recommend. (It’s on the border of Westport, but technically right over the Southport line.

Not in Westport, but in the next town over in Fairfield! You want delicious vegan fare? You got it. Jenn and her team are always cooking up a storm here. 100% vegan and 1000% yum. Great little lunch spot in downtown Fairfield.

Downtown Fairfield | Restaurants & Shopping

A touch more quaint than downtown Westport but just as awesome. Too many good restaurants to name. The Chelsea, Molto, Mecha, and 55 Wine Bar are just a few of my favorites. They also have lots of markets happening as well.
So many great restaurants to choose from in Fairfield! A lively atmosphere always, and less crowded than Westport. Too many great restaurants to even mention but I will try! Mecha Noodle Bar, South Bay, Quattro Pazzi Cafe, Molto, the Chelsea, Barcelona Wine Bar, Archie Moore's Bar.
