Food Scene

Tied to its own local farm, this is a great place to grab fresh food, baked goods, and coffees. They are open breakfast through early dinner (~7:00) most nights, but stay open late Thursday-Saturday. They are closed Sundays.

Sandwich and coffee shop that bakes their own bread! Great during warmer months, when you can sit out on the deck that overlooks Nashoba Brook.

Parks & Nature

A must see if you're in Concord! Pristine location to swim or take a hike. There's a fee for parking (I think around $8/car). In the busy months, the lot reaches capacity quickly and opens + closes in shifts. Check out their twitter (@waldenpondstate) for info on when it opens next to time your visit.

Open from Memorial to Labor day, this is an awesome drive in movie theater! A bit of a hike from Concord, but worth the trip. Get there way earlier than you think, they can sell out quickly. Movies are shown in double-features.
