Try and grab a spot on the deck at Fair Haven Oyster Company

Blue Orchid has late night happy hour on Friday's and Saturday's after 10pm. Highly recommend.

Tour the Yale campus for sure. See a Guttenberg bible at the Benecke Library. If they let you into the main Yale Library, check it out. If you like art, see the Yale Art Gallery. The deck at Fair Haven Oyster is great, not extra fancy. Olea is a great special occasion restaurant. Downtown is lively on Fri/Sat nights, lots of bars, etc.

If next weekend, local flavored things are the Open Source weekend, and the NH Docs Film festival. If nice weather Saturday morning go to Wooster Square Farmers market and grab something to eat in the WS park; places for a local drink u might otherwise miss include Old Heidelberg’s or Three Sheets.

Check out the Yale are museum! It’s free on chapel street. Group W bench on the same street is a historic little head shop that has great souvenirs and jewelry. Check out Wooster square if you want some pizza and Libby’s for Italian pastries. Ordinary and Owl Shop are my favorite bars and they both have a great vibe. Walking up east rock to check out the monument and the city below is always nice if you’ve never done it. And finally lol, union league cafe is an amazing special occasion restaurant. I also like shell and bones for great seafood and oysters and a pretty waterside view. Tavern on state is also worth a try for a nice dinner but I’ve honestly had mixed experiences there, and if I’m planning to spend that much money on dinner I want consistency

Many cool places and amazing restaurants - you will get much better recommendations if you share more specifics about preferences...
