Growing up, we spent a good amount of time in Ridgewood, and I still go once in a while. I've bought a bike, a few pets, cigars, clothes, coffee, ice cream, Blimpie subs etc. and could probably name at least a handful of different eateries that I enjoy equally. I think my parents even once bought a car in that town...a car boutique, LOL. People make it out to be somewhat of a snooty town, but there are offerings for everyone.
You can also stop by the duck pond for a nice picnic if you have the time.
Where can you find the best shops/boutiques that are actually worth the trip?
Living in downtown JC, I have to say SoHo is pretty much the place to go shopping. They have every store imaginable there. I just hate walking around with the crowds of people on the street. Insane.
I always enjoy walking around Westlfield and/or Redbank.
Being you posted this in the NJ forum I'm guessing you are asking about shopping in NJ? If so, I agree with Westfield and Red Bank. I lived near both and spent a lot of time in both towns. They have great restaurants, bars, shops...Westfield a bit more upscale with more boutiques and Red Bank a little more funky also with some great bars.
Red Bank and Westfield (not that I go to these places all that often) - Chester used to be but it's gone downhill during the recession and the opening of a strip mall.

I'm in Red Bank sometimes because it's close, but mostly I shop on Internet Street. Hehehe.
