From its humble beginnings as a small dairy store founded in 1969, Stew Leonard's has grown to become not only the World's Largest Dairy Store, but one of the most renowned grocery stores across the Tri-state area.
Definitely a must to visit in the Norwalk area as it is the headquarters. Small animal farm in the front and cute animatronics throughout the store. The kids will love it too.
