"Fun Suburb with Fabulous Eateries!"

Whether you are looking for a quiet walk down tree-lined avenues or an exciting afternoon of shopping and fun cuisine, Mount Kisco has a little bit of something for everyone. This Westchester suburb is an interesting mix of apartments and classic homes and offers a range of options for those looking to move into the area. This town is a mix of commercial and residential streets giving it more of a city flair than some of the neighboring suburbs. The public school system is rated well and there are also several private school options in the vicinity. The train station makes this a great commute suburb to NYC.

Mount Kisco offers a nice downtown shopping area and many great eateries. New additions making a real mark include Little Kebab Station and Little Spice Bazaar where President Clinton and Martha Stewart stop by to grab a bite! Then there are the more established restaurants like Café of Love and Thai Angel. Parking can seem like a challenge at peak times, but there is plenty of metered parking – come prepared with quarters!

Shopping in Mount Kisco includes everything from one-of-a-kind boutiques to the ever-popular Target and Kohls. And as it is right off of Saw Mill Parkway, it is also easy to get to other shopping areas nearby.

The entertainment options in Mount Kisco range from the usual to the extraordinary. The newly finished library building is a beautiful multi-story where you may see anything from a great art exhibition to a teenagers book club. And then there is the Grand Prix New York which is an indoor Go Karting facility which also offers bowling and arcade games.

There's much to recommend Mount Kisco as a place to live or visit!

"A small town with a great downtown area"

Mount Kisco is a great fit for anyone looking for a quiet town with a shopping district. The crime rate is very low and it's far removed from big cities. One of the drawbacks to the quiet life is that there aren't very many community activities. There are several clubs but most of them are small or organized by the library and school. It's a shame because the people are quite friendly; there just aren't many mediums to meet your neighbors.

The food options are pretty good. Of course there is the local pizzeria and the usual chain restaurants like Applebees and Friendly's. Then there are the gems like the Pour Cafe and Wine Bar, which offers some great tapas in a cozy setting, and Cafe of Love. Some of the restaurants in town are even Zagat rated.

The downtown area is probably Mount Kisco's best feature. It has a great mix of clothing stores, book stores, and restaurants. It's surprising to see well-known brand names next to locally owned stores but it's part of the appeal. The shopping area is very pleasant to walk around in but expect to drive almost everywhere else. The good part is although the downtown area is quite built up you'll find open green areas elsewhere.
Pros
  • Downtown Area
  • Good Childcare Options
Cons
  • Not many community activities
