Northampton, Massachusetts (called “NoHo” or “Hamp” by locals) is an active community in the Pioneer Valley only two hours from Boston that is home to one of the best coffee shop scenes in New England. It is also an intellectual center of Western Massachusetts including being home to Smith College and other area schools such as UMass Amherst, Amherst College, Mount Holyoke, and Hampshire College. Together with a friendly local guide, we will sample some of the city’s most delicious coffee shop beverages and treats, learn about the rich history of the area, and hear about what’s going on today.

Did you know President Calvin Coolidge was the mayor here and retired in NoHo as well? Many famous people have walked the streets of NoHo, which is also coined The Paradise City, and inspired the creation of the popular comic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The culinary talent in NoHo is top notch, and they put a lot of care into sourcing as well as handcrafting unique recipes you won’t find anywhere else.
