Food Scene
Sails has a lovely bar and decent food. We don’t eat here often as it’s a little more pricey but the food is pretty good. The bar is nice to have a drink and some snacks. They usually have music on Friday and Saturday nights.

The Market is the most popular breakfast and lunch spot in town. They make excellent food and you can sit out on the back deck overlooking the river. I’m a fan of the Bacon Egg and Cheese on an everything bagel and Hannah usually gets a sticky bun, if we get there before they sell out.

You can’t beat the ice cream at Brendan’s. Its also a good choice for lunch or breakfast.

Excellent local pizza place. Its BYOB and doesn’t have a lot of tables inside during the winter so I recommend ordering and picking your meal up to enjoy at home. Our favorites are the margarita pizza, house salad (it's the dressing really), chicken parm, and penne vodka.

Popular fancy seafood restaurant right on the Five Mile River. Small bar and good seafood. You’ll need a reservation for dinner here. Hannah and I met at the bar here so it holds a special place in our hearts. :)

The little park as your enter town. The historic home has a little museum about the area. I’m not sure the hours but they have regular events and you can find more details on their website. In the summer the park hosts concerts, Shakespeare on the Sound, local events, and the farmers market on Fridays.
