Restaurants and cafes along Rt. 44 get nowhere near the Connecticut-wide accolades or favorable reviews of Fairfield, New Haven, or Hartford-area joints, but that is changing. Arethusa produces the best cheese in the world, Materia has that "best of Connecticut' respect, and Freund's Farm was just on Shark Tank. I've had just as great a coffee in Salisbury, if not better, than on Elm Street in New Haven. Litchfield County may not have the population, but the quality is here. Try these places, you will not be disappointed.
The Culinary Highlights Along Route 44 Through Litchfield County
I love exploring Litchfield County since I made the move to Torrington, there are so many underrated restaurants, cafes, and bakeries that don't get the attention of someplace in Hartford, New Haven, or Danbury. Route 44 is a major roadway that cuts across Northern Litchfield County east to west from Lakeville to New Hartford, if you're hungry, here are some great places to stop.
