Westport is a super fun, walkable, bar and restaurant district. Find a place to park and everything is within walking distance. Restaurants for dinner, and bars with music for nightlife, and speakeasys for a nightcap, Westport has a little bit for everyone. Most businesses are family owned, so dont worry about a corporate scene here!
Westport Saloon is a laid back honkey tonk with live roots/blues/bluegrass music and Four Roses is their well whiskey.
Julep is a craft cocktail whiskey bar with a wall of whiskey that bartenders have to climb a rolling ladder to get to, Buzzard Beach is a crusty dive with character.
Harry's has a great patio and stellar service. Kelly's is the oldest bar in Westport.
Beer Kitchen has a huge beer selection and good food.
Port Fonda is excellent mexican (not tex mex, try the chicharones, chilequiles, chimichangas, and bloody Maria brunch bar. It's very good, but a little pricey.
And there is a Karaoke bar called OffKey. just to name a few of what Westport has to offer!

Amazing local butcher shop that has the BEST tacos and quesadillas on SATURDAYS only. The line moves pretty fast and is 100% worth it. Portions are huge and the flavors are off the charts!
This family owned butcher shop is open during the week, but closed sun/mon, and the tacos and quesadillas can only be had on Satudays.
