Exploring The Village

A stroll into town takes you past the Main Street Grille, with a vast menu including lots of fresh seafood selections. The wait staff is friendly and attentive, and the food was outstanding.

If you’re looking for a truly unique dining experience, try White Gate Farm, an organic farm that hosts “Dinners at the Farm”. The farm dinners are the event of the season bringing guest from near and far.

And what would a seaside town be without a penny candy store? Gumdrops And Lollipops takes you back in time with penny candy and ice cream flavors like Purple Sable, Cappachino Fudge Crunch and Birthday Cake. Inside you find candy and homemade fudge just waiting for your tasting.

I discovered Grace, a seashore boutique , full of unique clothing and beach items. My new straw hat is both stylish and keeps the shore sun out of my eyes. I could have spent hours in this adorable boutique, guess I will just have to return.

Niantic is not just a summer vacation spot for visitors, many guests return for fall foliage and winter getaways. The Inn’s “Fall In Love” package includes an Essex Steam Train and Riverboat trip providing breathtaking foliage views.
