    What an absolutely adorable little date spot! We paid to park and had an hour left so we walked over here from the Mariner. I'm not usually one for sweets, but this is the cutest place. We didn't have any bonbons, though they looked intricate and delicious. We had a round of drinks and were both very happy with our decisions. I highly recommend coming here for after dinner drinks or just a date with some girl friends.

    Come grab a drink & stay a while... Signature cocktails, a casual bar & confectionery known for their inventive dessert martinis & of course specialty chocolates. Perfect for a night to grab some drinks or a night cap paired with some delicious gourmet chocolates.

    Bon bons

    I have to say I have gone back and forth about writing a review because we had quite the experience. My daughter and I took a little road trip and Mystic was our first stop. We decided our first day would include splitting a pizza from Mystic Pizza followed by the Giant Espresso Martini and then back to the hotel to relax and get room service later in the evening. We sat at a lovely table outside on the porch area and decided on the bon bons we wanted to accompany our drink. Let me just say, the bon bons were delicious and the drink was WAYYYY bigger than we thought it would be. As in, someone walking by on ground level could literally see the glass, it was that huge! I don't even think we drank 1/3 of it. I would love to say that this was the start of a memorable evening but the truth is, we don't remember much beyond this gargantuan alcoholic beverage including the return uber ride to the hotel. My suggestion would be if you plan to order this drink make sure you have at least 4 people. Also, ask for water, we weren't given any and it may have helped. I'd definitely go back but truth is, I'm not sure I will ever have another espresso martini in my lifetime.

    Every time we visit we are wow'd a little bit more. The service is amazing! Do yourselves a favor and try every single bonbon. *protip* most of them are gluten free!

    Bad dream banana

    I really wish I could rate this place better. Two stars for service and if I could give a half star for chocolate, I would. The vibe outside is so relaxing and nautical. Very coastal. The vibe inside is weird as hell. It's lit like a night club (e.g, fluorescent purple lights, dark furniture) but it's not a night club at all. The inside just makes no sense. I ordered the bad dream banana which was made with "Bacardi dark rum, banana, and espresso." Given that everyone else was receiving creamy cocktails in cocktail glasses, I was expecting similar with a bit of real banana puree. That is not what it was. This thing was an abomination. I guess it was rum? Not sure it tasted like rubbing alcohol flavored with banana laffy taffy. It was extremely artificial and was espresso in there?? Awful. I could not drink it. I brought it back in and ordered something safe, a glass of red wine. The bartender was super nice about it and didn't charge me for the wine so she gets the only stars. Chocolate was ok.

    Stopped at A*T*Y Bar and Bon Bon for some quick drinks and a snack. I didn't have any of the drinks (just having some water), but I was told that the drinks were excellent. The chocolates were really good. Not only were they visually appealing, they tasted amazing. I enjoyed the salted caramel and raspberry truffles especially. The ambience was moody and relaxing. The young woman working the bar and counter was incredibly pleasant and very kind. Over Al and excellent experience

    This is a great spot. A very quaint cocktail spot that is the perfect size. A bit hidden away so it isn't usually busy. I have been a couple times and had good experiences. The cocktails are on point. I do think that the atmosphere could be elevated by turning down the lights a little, it is always lit up like a coffee shop, probably to display the chocolates. If the lights were lowered a bit it would create much more ambiance and a cozier feel which this spot is lacking in my opinion. It's great in all other aspects!

    Happy July 2! It's the summer and you need to take a trip to Mystic. This should definitely be a spot that is on your list of places to try. I went in for the first time because of a great recommendation from Erin at Sift. She told us to check it out and ATY did not disappoint! It's a super cute spot with a small bar and several indoor and outdoor tables and let me tell you- I love Key Lime Pie and they had two things that really checked off all the boxes for me. 1. The Key Lime Bon Bon 2. The Key Lime Pie Martini- made with key lime, white chocolate, vanilla infused Grey Goose, caramel and a key lime deco. Holy yum!!! There are so many different flavors to choose from too. I can't wait to visit again! Cheers!

    We'd heard from friends that Shipwright's Daughter in Mystic was a must-try. Wow, were they right…read more From the warm greeting at the door to the beautiful decor, the experience started strong. We were seated at a lovely table for two overlooking Main Street - watching people stroll by from that elevated perch behind glass felt almost cinematic. The real star of the show was the food, which is ultimately what you're there for, and it delivered. The menu offers plenty of options without being overwhelming. I started with the Crispy Pig's Head as an appetizer - a bold choice that turned out to be outstanding. For my entrée, the bucatini with seacoast mushrooms, sherry, parmesan, mushroom cream, and fine herbs was perfectly cooked, and carried a subtle but deeply flavorful sauce. And the housemade sourdough with poblano honey butter? Absolutely outstanding. To be fair, our server took a little time to warm up but found their footing and gave us everything we needed. Parking in Mystic on a busy weekend night can also be a challenge and expensive. Neither is reason enough to skip this one. Ship Wright's Daughter is exactly the kind of restaurant Mystic deserves. Don't wait for a special occasion -- just go.

    I really didn't want to write this review, but potential patrons should know what they can expect…read morewhen working with the event staff at Shipwright's Daughter - if they plan to have a private dining experience and event there. My husband and I got married last December. We decided we would hold off on celebrating with our family and invite everyone out from California to join us for a weekend full of activities in Connecticut and a special dinner at Shipwright's Daughter during Memorial Day weekend. We contacted the restaurant's events team to work out high level details starting in late January - to book a private room and hold a date and time. From the get go, the communication we received from the event staff was dismal to say the least. Not only did the events manager misquote the estimate for the room reservation, she came back and asked for a much higher price (up charging by an additional 30% of the original minimum fee) two months after we confirmed and discussed the date. She then explained it was due to the holiday weekend. Our date had never changed from the moment we inquired, so we would have appreciated knowing this upfront. Over the course of several months (and an absurd number of emails and a few calls), we tried to solidify the menu and wine selection and made multiple attempts before hearing back from the team. It was about two weeks before the big event when we were able to confirm a menu. It was about four days before the event that we heard back from the beverage director, but by then, my husband and I had already decided we would bring our own wine bottles, not wanting to leave it to chance with this team. I won't go into further details about the frustration we felt regarding their system for communications (they use an internal system that doesn't make it easy for guests to know who is copied on emails and who sees what). That is something I hope they will work out. When the big day came, I walked into the room and noticed there were a number of chairs missing, so I counted the chairs. They had an incorrect number of chairs for adults and not enough high chairs for the toddlers. We had requested a specific number of these chairs (weeks prior and mentioned it multiple times in writing), and I thought it was safe to assume that this was a basic checklist item for events set up. I was dumbfounded in the moment. I couldn't help but wonder what else they were going to miss or mess up that evening. It was disappointing to have our family members wait while the staff scrambled to pull other chairs into the room. From the time it took to take everyone's order from the set menu, the time between courses being served, and the attentiveness for pouring water and wine - all of it was a miss. The level of hospitality that we expected from a restaurant so recognized for its incredible food and approach to sustainable sourcing was completely overshadowed by the lack of attention and care by its staff - since day one of planning this event. Even a few of our family members commented on this during the dinner. At the end of the day, we felt like an obligation rather than welcomed guests, and that is mainly why I'm leaving this review. We had been patrons of Shipwright's a couple of times prior to this event, which is why we chose this establishment - to represent the best that Connecticut has to offer, when it comes to a dining experience we could vouch for. We no longer feel that we can recommend this restaurant. If you care about hospitality, I would recommend looking elsewhere.
