About Us
OUR STORY
We are located in the tiny historic fishing community of Noank, located in the town of Groton CT at the mouth of the Mystic River. Originally a general store, Carson's has transformed into a cafe & breakfast restaurant while maintaining its classic charm. Breakfast, lunch & of course Ice Cold Ice.
Carson's Store first opened in 1907, run by Jane Carson and the Carson Family in two different locations prior to settling on its current location at 43 Main Street. Originally, Carson's was located at the foot of Main Street, where the Latham Chester Store sits today, in a building that no longer exists. The store was moved to the opposite end of Main Street and was located adjacent to the train tracks. Unfortunately, a spark from a passing steam train caught the store on fire and burned it down.
