We turned to locals to get the scoop on the most beloved places in Bridgeport, from thrifts shops to neighborhood bars
Bridgeport is a community in the truest sense of the word, the kind of place where locals can walk into a bar and run into more than one of their neighbors. Frankly, we're a little bit jealous, so we reached out to area business owners, chefs and musicians to learn about their favorite places, from cozy coffee shops to saucy barbecue joints. Even if you don't call Bridgeport your home, you'll be able to spend a day pretending that you're a resident at these beloved restaurants, bars and parks.
