   - Great Time

   The newest trend in Date nights, Family nights, Social gatherings, and Corporate team building. Solve all within 60 minutes and you “Escape the room”. Perfect for ages 10 to 110. The Basement is an escape room first and foremost although we have added a few bits of horror elements within. Depending on your tolerance, it may be scary. We hope so. If you feel you may easily be offended with some graphic horror, please feel free to call us with questions. Our second room The Backstage, opened in 2018! Lighter and brighter, this is a very active room that is suited best for larger groups and is filled with puzzles, gadgets, mysteries, and challenges for you to solve. Entertain Your Brain!

5. 4.5 Relic Brewing Company (18 reviews)
   - Great Selection:Amazingly Knowledgeable Owner
   Breweries
   
   
   This is a hidden gem even if you live in town. It is in an old industrial park on Whiting Street just past the corner convenience store but set back from the road. The owner is amazingly knowledgeable about beer and all spirits, a true aficionado. There is a great selection of beers and ales, typically 12-16 on tap. They have increased the facility to give much more space to to sit and socialize. They have multiple wines and ciders but best of all they have 650+ whiskeys to taste (perhaps the largest selection in New England!)! When I have been there we have brought in outside food. A fun place and very casual. You can learn a lot here from the owner and staff. See more..

8. 3.0 Sunset Rock State Park (1 review)
   - Hard to find
   State Parks • Bodies of Water
   
   
   This park is tough to find. Trails were marked with paint along trees, but hard to see and keep track of. Very quiet area. I thought I was the only person around until I stumbled across some people rock climbing along one of the hills. This is one of those places that you should always hike with a buddy. Trail maps said there was an entrance on the backside, but I wouldn’t use it. Youre parking off the side of a road and walking along the edge and behind someones property – not a good way in. The entrance is also not marked either. See more..
