Bronxville, New York is a beautifully coherent Westchester County village — founded as an artists’ colony in the 1890s — offering Tudor architecture, a civilized Pondfield Road dining corridor, and an 11-mile river pathway that surprises visitors with its tranquility.
Scalini Osteria delivers Tuscan-inspired Italian dining — octopus, pork ribs, and carrot cake — in an atmosphere that devoted regulars say transports them entirely to Italy. La Chitarra serves fresh pasta and gnocchi that Westchester enthusiasts call among the finest in the county.
For outdoor recreation, the Bronx River Pathway offers 11 miles of scenic riverside trail with rustic bridges and a small waterfall through beautifully accessible greenway.
