  • Daddy Cate’s: The Time Tested Community Coffee Shop We Love

    Brunswick has such a hometown feel to it. It’s one of the things we love most about downtown, and one of the very reasons for that is the 20 plus year presence of Daddy Cate’s Coffee. It is such a welcoming place with such wonderful aromas that greet you when you open the door. It…

  • We Ate Our Way Through The Best PorchFest Ever

    Brunswick PorchFest turns historic Old Town porches into live music stages for a one-day community festival that keeps growing every year – like 10,000 plus this year. Inspired by the original PorchFest in Ithaca, this local version began in 2018 thanks to neighbors with a simple idea: performers + porches = community. And there were…

  • Nautica Joe’s is My New Happy Place for Lunch in Downtown Brunswick

    We stumbled into Nautica Joe’s for lunch on a Wednesday at the insistence of our friend Shayne from Blacksheep Pickers. Shayne never steers you wrong. It was packed, and for good reason: their food is fresh, creative and delicious and the service is friendly and efficient. The decor is a thing of beauty. It’s clean…

  • This Little Shanty Packs a Big Flavor

    I’ll never forget the first time Cassie and I went to Indigo Shanty. It was almost surreal. Like we were in a completely different world… in a homey, friendly and relaxing world which nearly exactly describes the food here. It’s tucked off the beaten path a bit but close enough to walk to if you’re…

  • Tested and True Local Favorite Pizza with Heart and Soul

    When I first walked into Broomelli Boys Pizzeria with the my show hosts, the smell of fresh dough and roasted garlic in a fiery brick oven smacked me with delirious delight. You know that scent. You can smell it now! Authentic, homemade, fresh pizza in the oven. That’s exactly the vibe at Broomelli Boys on…

  • Award Winning Beer in an Authentic Homey Garden

    When Silver Bluff Brewing opened its doors in 2020, it instantly became the center of downtown Brunswick. We love stepping inside, often lured by local music, grabbing a beer and meeting up with friends or making new ones over a game of cornhole. There’s a cozy feeling inside or out that just makes you feel…

  • A Creative Genius with a Really Big Smoker

    My family has been in the South since before the War of Northern Aggression. I know a thing or two about barbecue. You can really get messed up coming to Hootenanny’s thinking you’ll get the traditional pulled pork with sticky sweet sauce, white bread, baked beans and coleslaw. It’s not here. Think more like Charro…

  • The Best Pizza Food Truck in Brunswick – Hands Down

    You can find him in front of Silver Bluff Brewery or in front Duckworth Tires, but whatever you do, find him! This is Ciccio’s Pizzeria (chee-chee-oh’s) and he’s cranking a 900° brick oven in his 100 square foot food truck churning out some really tasty little pizza pies. Having studied under Italian Chef Paola Bugli…

    These aren’t just good hot dogs, rather this is a beloved Brunswick institution.

  • Dancing Goats Coffee, Books and Magic. What more Could You Want?

    Like any good coffee and book store you’ll find this one when it feels like you’re walking down an alley. Grant Street runs parallel to Newcastle in beautiful downtown Brunswick, and you can just follow your nose until you see the chalk sandwich board. Spiral Wanderers describes itself as a metaphysical coffee bar and book…
