“We hope that residents and visitors alike will be able to enjoy and support the many restaurants that Fairfield has to offer,” stated Mark Barnhart, Fairfield’s Director of Community & Economic Development.

Our University community looks forward to what Fairfield Restaurant Week has to offer every year. The Economic Development team in Fairfield organizes a great event and we appreciate the happy patrons who shop at our downtown bookstore before and after their lovely meals.”
