Town

Larger of the 2 towns nearby (I prefer Brattleboro). 25k people. A little more spread out than Brattleboro but a vibrant Main Street. Great restaurant - The Stage.

Smaller VT town 15 minutes away. Very liberal. It’s as if someone plopped down 2 blocks of the lower Eastside of NYC into the foothills of Vermont. Family friendly restaurants : - lunch Bagel works ( sit in kids alcove) -Hazels ( newer /new American) -Echo ( long time local staple) - Chelsea Diner ( 4 miles out of town. Great milkshakes/ local ice cream/beer) - local brewery McNeils - shopping Main Street. ( Sam’s- great outdoor sports store ) - Penelopes ( gift shop) - Groceries Brattleboro CO-Op / Hannafords
