If you&#8217;re splitting with friends, you can definitely treat yourself to a night out every now and then without your pocketbook groaning too loudly.<\/p>\n<p>This area is very walkable and safe, even at night. Of course, traveling anywhere with friends is safer than traveling alone, but you&#8217;ll want to be with others if you&#8217;re over in West Hartford. Try some ice cream at Milkcraft or go to a movie at Cinepolis after dinner&#8217;s over. You can even have a full-service meal in the theater there, but you can bet it will cost more than if you come already full.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transportation It&#8217;s possible to get to West Hartford (Blue Back Square) by bus, but frankly not so easy.
