Goshen has Nodines which is a pretty cool smoke shop with various cheeses as well. Not a dine in place but good stuff. The theater in downtown Torrington is pretty nice too.

Meth. How long are you around Torrington? Cause meth. That's what Torrington is known for.

Can always do a tasting at the red dog brewery, try maybe going to get some sushi at 808 Asian fusion, or a hike around burr pond or try one of the Latin places in town, avoid dos amigos tho

You could go see a show at the Warner Theatre. It’s a gorgeous old theatre in the center of town with some history. Also, if you like ballet you can take adult ballet classes at the Nutmeg Conservatory.

I live in Torrington and love it - but I like the outdoors.

What is your idea of fun things to do?

Lots of good outdoor suggestions here. But I’m just going to come right out and say it. Try not to do Opiates.

Seems like way to many people there decided to….

Mohawk and sundown are very close, and fwiw the best mountains in ct to ski/snowboard.

Mostly outdoor stuff. Tubing and kayaking/canoeing nearby in the warmer months.

Eta: Brewery Legitimus in New Hartford.

Toothpick is great, and a bit to the west Litchfield is very cute with Arethusa, White memorial and Litchfield Distillery all worth a look

Replying to catboy_goes_nyaa (#2,079,180)

I would check out trailforks.com, and download the app. Within the app I would download the CT trail map so you can still navigate when you lose cell service.

Sunnybrook State Park has some nice hiking, as well as an RC airfield.

The mountain biking is incredible at Burr Pond- I know people who drive an hour to ride their (though it's not really beginner friendly). People hike there as well.

If you have access to a kayak or canoe Stillwater pond is a nice place to chill on the water.

So, there's my 3 favorite spots within 10 minutes.

Go a bit further, there are ski areas (Mohawk and Ski Sundown), lakes trails, etc.

Lots of nice scenery to the west - the Housatonic River wasn't industrialized like the Naugatuck.

And if you like more manicured trails or are walking with someone of unkown stanima, white memorial in Litchfield is a good spot with many different places to park. My wife and I are amazed at all the wildlife we see on the water.

DM me if you want to connect or have any questions.

People talk a lot of shit about Torrington; My wife and I call it the Jewel of the Northwest.
