Thank you, New Haveners!

Based on the input here:

I'm switching it up for Pepes/Sallys. I only chose Modern because it was a little closer and opinions are so split.

I'm adding Beinecke - which looks incredible

Trying to find a way to fit in BAR and/or Cafe Nine.

Going with Union League simply to move past the abundance of choice and for the fireplace (something my wife loves). We'll be back in warmer weather for ZINC and Olea, I have a feeling.

And finally going with Pantry at opening (8am), before we head back.

Really excited and appreciate all the great feedback!

Edit: New Haveners

Since you're heading to Wooster Square for Pepe's or Sally's may I suggest a quick walk to the end of Wooster for some fantastic Italian pastry and coffee at Libby's. The Italian Ice there is also really good.

have fun FWIW its new haveners" Also sallys is great but if not trust us Modern gets it done for the NHV experience.

Thanks, Emu. That would have been embarrassing!

For what it's worth, I did google it first and saw the term used in some Yale publications.

I’d pick Sally’s over Peppe’s any day. Less of a wait.
