Drinking in Westport isn’t typically an act of reverence for the fine art of bartending. Thankfully, Westport Café and Bar brings the laid-back elegance of a French brasserie to a stretch of road that some find synonymous with drunk and disorderly. Full-length windows look out onto Westport Road and fill the narrow restaurant with natural light. Bask in the amber glow of the illuminated bar and watch the bartender shake up a classic cocktail for you; or sit at one of the small tables along the exposed-brick wall for a bite to eat. WCB’s menu offers simple and tasty French inspired dishes such as mussels with fennel and tomatoes or foie gras mouse. The kitchen stays open until 1 a.m., which makes this spot an attractive late-night crowd pleaser.
