Calef’s Country Store, established in 1869, is a New England tradition and the cornerstone of the proposed historic district for Barrington’s  planned commercial growth.  Calef’s, a retail thoroughbred, has established itself as a specialty food and gift retailer.  In addition, Calef’s serves local customers on a day-in and day-out basis as a unique general store, deli & market, and overall community and gossip center.  Next door, you’ll also find Calef’s Gift store, featuring the best New England has to offer. 

This tourist attraction is a genuine New England experience, engaging people as they retrace the steps of their youth to rediscover this landmark.  Politicians and pollsters, seeking to reach the grass roots, also make it a point to stop by and interact with this venerable store’s customers while visiting Senator Austin Calef’s childhood home.  You can also follow the crowds to various events throughout the year, such as the Annual Baked Bean Bake Off, the (largest in the country) Truck Meet to show old trucks and tractors or a Summer Craft Fair & Festival.   Annually, over 150,000 customers walk through Calef’s front door.
