Why this plan works
The 3 stops cover about 1.4 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Nashua instead of crossing town between them. Fody's Great American Tavern is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Stella Blu — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it. Best suited to friends, couples, solo, and adults who want a planned Nashua outing without improvising between stops.
