A little bit of a hike from the cottage, so you might want to drive and park on one of the side streets.

Walk straight down our street and you will hit the water. Walk around the water to King Park for a nice outdoor stroll. Also a good place to sit on a bench and watch the sunset.

Food scene

Too many great restaurants to name, so I'm just sharing a few that are in our area, and a few worth driving to.
Steps away from our cottage... A wonderful fine dining experience. Great food and impeccable service. I recommend the soufflé for dessert! You're lucky if you get Captain Dan as your server. He's amazing and can recommend the perfect wine to go with your dish. Dress appropriately to dine here. Make a reservation well in advance!

The chef is the real deal! Friendly atmosphere. You can sit at the wine bar if you have to wait. They have a nice selection of wines. Just a block away.

I love the food at this restaurant. The food is authentic and sooo good. It's on the quiet side. The owner can be grouchy... so don't be late and dress nicely (no flip flops, cut offs or tank tops). About a 7 minute walk further down Thames.

Great breakfast spot.... recommend driving. They don't take reservations so there's always a wait, but the food is worth it.

A great choice for their diverse menu and fun atmosphere. Contemporary American and Seafood. Sit upstairs with a view of the water, if it's available or sit in the bar area if you like the hustle and bustle.

Good food and a funky vibe. You can choose your tequila. This is a very fun place. They also have a good brunch. It's a bit of a longer walk, so we usually drive. There is paid parking available.

You'll need to take your car for a short drive... but I love this place for boozy brunch. They make the best lobster benedicts and great bloody Marys. (Full Bar)

This restaurant is not for everybody, given that it's usually extremely loud, and the food is simple (some of us like it that way). That being said, it has the freshest seafood (menu is on the chalk board). Try the shrimp or scallops with pasta in the white wine sauce (I forget the name of the dish). It's yummy. Also a great place for oysters (they have an oyster bar)... Try to sit near the windows.

When we feel like pizza and don't feel like driving or walking.... we order delivery from Mama Leone's. It's delicious. The large pizza is on the small side and perfect for two people.

Delicious food, creative menu, good drinks and right across the street from our cottage! Reservations are required… including seats at the bar where you can watch the chefs cook and chat with the bartenders. The Porterhouse Halibut is amazing!
