The heartbeat of Middleburg. Order a complicated but lip smackingly good sandwich and cappuccino, parade your adorable pup around, then grab an outside table and people watch behind your Jackie O’s. Wear appropriately muddy wellies, and for God’s sake, don’t wash the sacred soil off of your car, it’s the only way they know you didn’t come in from DC for a gawk at Senator’s wives or Robert Duvall.
