The Perfect Saturday in Fairfield
Start with breakfast at the Driftwood Coffee Shop. It's a throwback old school Southport luncheonette, serving up delicious food in booths and round leather bar stools. Or just around the corner, have a cozy fall/winter brunch by the fire at the Gray Goose, a popular neighborhood haunt from morning til night. I get the corn flake french toast with local apples, cinnamon & vanilla bean butter. OH yes! At nighttime, this same spot heats up with a thirsty crowd enjoying cocktails on the front porch and inside at the bar.

The Town That Has It All
Fairfield has it all. We have miles of walkable beaches, eclectic and interesting restaurants, award-winning school systems and competitive sports for any level. Our recently built community sports plex has activities for every age. We have a Fairfield theatre company, three train stations, public and private golf courses and community tennis. All accessible a little over an hour from New York city. I was raised in Fairfield and moved back here after I had kids because of the amazing experiences I had.

Get Outside & Enjoy Fairfield
October 1st to March 31st, dogs and horses are allowed to roam free on Fairfield’s beaches, parks and hiking trails. Lake Mohegan is 170 acres of Fairfield-owned trails and lake access for hiking and swimming, during the summer months. I take my dog here in the fall and spring and do two quick laps around the lake to tire her out as a daily workout.
