We enjoy Saltwater Farm for its gorgeous environment. It’s a lovely place to enjoy in the warmer months, especially on days when they have live music.

Old Man Joe's has the best coffee in the area (serving Variety Coffee) and a charmed interior. If you make your way to Westerly, we highly recommend a visit.

Shopping
The Velvet Mill is known for its Saturday farmer’s market, but it also has a handful of terrific shops. We are big fans of Ahmee Ceramics (@ahmeeceramics), located in the annex. The most beautiful pottery in town! Truly gorgeous pieces.
We also recommend Fun and Funky Vintage (@fun_and_funky_vintage) and Unit 88 (@velvetmillunit88).

Watch Hill is the nearest notable beach, but it is also more than that. It has breathtaking marine and coastal views... not to mention Taylor Swift's New England home (look for the white house at the top of the hill).
