The best bread in New Haven! This great cafe/bookstore has been in New Haven for decades. It is in the ground floor of the British Art Museum which makes for a nice combination of activities on a rainy day. The British Art Museum is free also!

This coffee place is so close to our house you barely will notice the walk. Put the address into google and choose the walk feature because there's a pedestrian shortcut that's beautiful and easy. They also have drinks at night!

New Haven is known for pizza and Modern is one of the contenders for best in the city (along with Pepe's and Bar). Modern usually has very long lines, but you can call ahead and pick up if you're ok to eat in.

The Farmington Canal Greenway is a 10+ mile running/biking trail that starts a couple blocks from our place. It is paved and beautifully maintained. Go during daylight as there's a section about a mile away that goes through a bad neighborhood.
