Cutlers is a nice alternative to the music superstores. For their size, they have a great selection of CDs. It's not all pop and top 20 -- they have a good array of alternative as well. The store and the staff are very laid back -- but knowlegable if you ask them. It's centrally located in New Haven -- very near Yale University -- so there are always college kids in there. They've been around forever -- so locals shop there too. Prices are competative and fair.

The Peabody Museum is a great place to take the kids. We go at least once a year. The Milford Public Library has a free pass you can borrow for a few days. The Peabody has a wonderful dinousaur room that the kids absolutely love. We went one time and they were having a scavenger hunt in the dinosaur room where you had to search for dinasour facts, and the kids got a prize at the end. This museun is just the right size too, not to large yet not to small.

What to do when living in Hartford on a snowy Saturday.
1) Get in the car
2) Drive to BruRm @ BAR in New Haven
3) Consume many great beers brewed on the premises
4) Eat lots of excellent pizza (sorry Pepe's... you may have met your match - these pies can't be beat!)
5) Decide to get another couple of pizzas for tomorrow
6) Kill some time until you're legal to drive back to Hartford
Yep, that was our regular routine for three years. I still miss those pizzas and their outstanding beer.

The Wave Gallery is one of my favorite gift shops in all of the many cities I've ever lived in. They have a wonderful selection -- you can find something appropriate for pretty much anyone. They have cards, candles, jewelry, knick-knacks, art and tons of "cutsie items." Prices are reasonable -- depending on what you buy. They do have a nice selection of items in many price ranges. Their merchandise is unique and fun -- not what you would find in a traditional chain card or gift shop. I love to shop here -- and I see something new each time! Highly recommend.

This is a great SMALL space to see awesome bands. Although I will agree with the other poster about Cafe Nine that the ginormous post in front of the stage has to go, this is a great place to see lots of genres. They have blues jams, rockabilly, punk, etc, usually a low admission price, and cheap drinks. Cafe Nine usually fills up late, so if you get there before 10 you can grab a table. It is a really small space though, so if you don't like being crowded this aint the place for you.

The shubert theater is a wonderful place to go instead of having to travel all the way to the city. The prices are well worth the performances. I saw cats there once and the theater is amazing its very clean and our seat were great. I get excited every time I hear when something great is playing!

The Children's Museum is a perfect place to bring young ones or even to go when you are bored.
All the rooms have a specific theme and they are changed periodically. The experience is terrific as you always walk away from it with knowledge of a particular subject that you never had before. It's not specifically catered to a specific subject (for example, science or nature) but you'll always have something to talk about.
Parking is located nearby and is close to a lot of restaurants for a complete afternoon.

Yale has so much to offer for everyone. The campus is beautiful, and on a warm spring day you can't help but fall in love with the place. New Haven itself gets a bad rap, but as far as small cities go, it has a great selection of restaurants, bars and cultural activities. It's common sense not to walk on scary dark streets late at night, so as long as you follow that advice, you should do just fine in New Haven.
With the residential college system for the undergraduates, students get the best of both worlds - a great research institution, and the personal attention of a small college.
For God for country and for Yale!
