The good country songs sing about small town love. They might as well be singing about Uxbridge. With the quaint stores and the small town charm, Uxbridge is ideal for those who live by country stars such as Alan Jackson and George Strait. Chic, trendy stores line the streets making shopping unavoidable. You can buy just about anything from clothing at Woods&Woods, little knick-knacks from Presents Presents Presents to the best Friggin Lip Balm from Elemi. Uxbridge is also known for the outstanding restaurants that litter the town in every direction. Renowned restaurants like Frankie’s Ristorante and the Tin Mill are a big attraction, bringing people all the way from Toronto to enjoy a lavish meal. Although Uxbridge is an established area, the small town feel never goes away. Century homes can be found on almost every street that flaunts the history of the enchanting town. Entertainment is never a problem. In the Uxbridge area alone, there are four golf courses; Foxbridge North and South Courses, renowned Wooden Sticks and Mill Run.

I have lived in Uxbridge since I was little and what I love about this small town is the atmosphere. I love walking the trails behind Barton Farms whether it be winter or summer and since Uxbridge is the Capital Trail of Canada, it’s the perfect thing to do. The quirky shops downtown have everything an eager shopper wants; clothes, shoes and house decorations for any season. What makes Uxbridge so special is that it never stops short of impressing.
