Everything Stafford
I’ve been exploring and writing about Connecticut since 2006. After a decade, I began compiling CTMQ guides for each town in the state. I plan on “completing” Stafford CTMQ-style… as well as the other 168 towns, cities, and boroughs in Connecticut. After all, that is the ultimate goal of CTMQ.
What do you know about the town which is most famous for Stafford Springs which is only the downtown part of Stafford? You can scroll down for my list of things to do in town. Or, as always, you can click on the town’s tag to see what I’ve done.
If I’ve missed anything in town or if anything has closed or changed, please let me know.

Completion Celebration Meal & Stafford Wrap-Up
Stafford… you’re on notice!
Your celebratory meal should be at Basils Restaurant. Favorite of a lot of Staffordites. Try one of their burgers. My favorite is the bacon cheeseburger with fries, cole slaw and a pickle. Go when you can meet the owner – Alex Koulisis.
Let me know when you come to Stafford, hopefully I’ll have a homebrew on tap. I’d love to read a scathing review!
