Guidebook for New Haven
Food Scene
great coffee, as well as a robust menu of other drinks, both caffeinated and not. the almond croissants are delicious; they also have bagels with lox and various sandwiches (try the pig&fig). there is a small outdoor sidewalk seating area, with giant cushions and water bowls for dogs. this cafe is technology free, so please don't bring laptops or pull out cell phones!

best diner in the world. jazz themed, with great music and posters from festivals lining the walls. the california benedict and a stack of pancakes are the way to go here! the cinnamon roll pancake is iconic, with frosting and a real cinnamon swirl, but the blueberry pancakes (and peach when they have them!) are my favorite. the home fries should be illegal; they are so perfect - amazing sauteed crunchy bits and liberal amounts of scallions. careful - there can be a long wait on weekend mornings, and they generally close at 2pm!

hands down my favorite restaurant in new haven. amazing tapas (try the chorizo with fig, the grilled hangar steak, the incredible green beans), great cocktails, and a huge wine selection. the atmosphere is buzzy and fun without being overly loud or feeling rowdy. great for dates, family dinners, celebrations, get togethers with large groups of friends - literally everything. one of the rare places in new haven open late every night.
