Millerton, New York
There is a lot to do here! We love the Oakhurst Diner, Irving Farms Coffee Shop, and Harney & Sons. There are plenty of cute stores and antique shopping in town. McEnroe Market is a great option for lunch and basic grocery shopping, they sell their own organic produce and meat. The rail trail goes through Millerton, Amenia, and Wassaic and is great for biking, running, or walking.
Millbrook, New York
Orangerie Garden & Juniper are beautiful home decor stores located on the far end of Franklin Avenue. There are a couple of good small restaurants in the area, Cafe Les Baux & Canoe Hill. We love Babettes for coffee, sandwiches, salads and prepared food. Outside of the town center, Innisfree Garden is a beautiful place to visit. You could also try shooting sporting clays at Orvis Sandanona (or just visiting their shop).
Amenia, New York
Peggy Sweet & Savory is a great small coffee shop with baked goods and sandwiches. Make sure to stop by Tent, a high end home decor shop. Wethersfield Estate and Garden is a beautiful place to visit.
Wassaic, New York
A tiny town, but there are a couple of fun places to try. The Lantern has really good pizza and a nice outdoor seating area, and Ten Mile Distillery is a hidden gem with great specialty cocktails.
Pine Plains, New York
There are two wonderful restaurants in Pine Plains, Stissing House and Champetre. If you plan to do some shopping don’t miss Deméter Home and Hammertown Barn.
