Rainy day number two lol so decided after lunch to stop by Foolproof Brewing. It's located in…read moreBridgeport in not the nicest part but safe. You park across the street and it was free so always a good thing. It's our 3rd or 4th visit but this time wasn't as enjoyable as tons of kids running completely unsupervised. We tried to play table shuffle board with the disc and sand on board but apx 6-8 kids ranging in age from 5-10 were throwing the pucks back and forth, knocking all the sand off the table, and their parents, one table away completely ignored them. Beer and wine were good, service pretty decent, but the kids really put a damper on this visit so we didn't order the wings we wanted. All of our other visits have been fine, some wonderful, today, not so much. One mom actually "lost" her kid and frantically searched for her. Welp, she was by the elevator on the way out. I realize you try to please everyone but staff and parents totally ignored potential harm to equipment and guests. Overall though, great place with good swag.

I have been here multiple times now and each time the menu has changed. The draft beers have also…read morechanged. There was a vendor event going on so somehow did not get the message that there was no table service and that drinks were ordered at bar and food somewhere else.I sat at the table for probably 20 mins before someone clued me in...and it was not a staff person. Pool table moved and I think also foosball and table shuffle board were removed. Hmm. The feta whip with grilled pita was ok, but not worth the $15. Honey and pistachios were served in little containers and just seemed incomplete as an appetizer Seems there are still lots of kinks to be worked out as you walk in there and really feel like you are being ignored. 2 ladies room out of tp.

First time trying NewSylum Brewing Co. in Newtown, CT…read more NewSylum Brewing Co., opened its doors in 2020, the 15-barrel microbrewery sits on the historic campus of Fairfield Hills, a former psychiatric hospital. The name "NewSylum" cleverly bridges "Newtown" with the historical definition of "asylum" meaning a sanctuary or place of refuge. The taproom is housed in a beautifully restored, historic red brick colonial-style building. Customers can enjoy full table service inside the 9,000-square-foot space or relax in the extensive, dog-friendly outdoor seating areas. I've heard this area is full of paranormal activity if you're into that. We recommend the following wood-fired pizzas: -Hot Oil pie pizza -Pepperoni pizza -Korean BBQ pizza -Hot Italian pizza -Giant Pretzel Drinks: -Frozen Mudslide drink -Counting the days IPA We had excellent service and really enjoyed seeing historic photos of the old asylum room before building got renovated. Check it out when in the area! Happy Yelping :)

When we arrived around 330 on a Saturday afternoon the main indoor area was already packed. We were a bit disappointed because the band sounded great. We ended up sitting in the enclosed outdoor space with our group of 4 adults. Despite the cold temperature outside and the heavy rain, we were cozy and warm until we left around 630 PM. Our group tried many of the beers on the menu. Counting the days was my favorite of the beers that I tried and Dunkelweiss was a close second ! I loved all the fun beer names. We ordered the giant pretzels to share while we casually enjoyed our beers. We ended up ordering the cheese pizza and buffalo chicken pizza. The buff chix pizza was very salty. I'd personally pass on that one on our next visit. Overall great visit and will return when in the area !

YES, I have been thinking about those onion rings since last time! The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, and not all breweries do 1/2 pours and these guys do! When you don't want a full sized beer but just a little more ... they got you! They do have some fun T's that you need to check out when you visit as well, 'cause who doesn't want something to remember this visit! You HAVE TO STOP HERE WHEN YOU ARE IN NORWALK!!!!!!

I couldn't find parking in their lot but it wasn't too hard to find free street parking close by. Everyone gets carded and stamped when walking in at this time of day. I went to get a drink, and got the hot cider with bourbon. Other people had some of their beers and had overall positive things to say about it. And luckily the was right next to a food court area with pizza, tacos, sushi, and sandwiches as options. The place got very loud during trivia night, and it was nice to be in such a lively atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

First visit- empty bar, pleasant bartenders. I did sampler of pils, Leatherman dopplebock,…read moreOktoberfest and East Rock lager. Pils was good, not too much bite; dark dopplebock had nice balance and wasn't heavy despite color. I thought Oktober was kinda lifeless and lager was, well, dank ( fine for 420 but not beer!).

There was an acoustic guitar player playing very subtle, but yet popular tunes, which added a nice touch. As the evening progressed, there was a glitch with our meals. The staff was completely apologetic, and the manager handled it perfectly!!! It was a fabulous night even with that glitch, but even that didn't put a huge damper on things and they handled it with professionalism. Oh, by the way, our servers were also awesome! I would definitely go back to enjoy the brewery or an event if they have one in the future!

Suggested this place to my man because he's a craft beer fan. I haven't been here since it first…read moreopened, so I was curious to see how it was now. We sat at the bar, and I liked how spacious the place is. It has that industrial brewery vibe, a large dining room, and outdoor seating. It's also within walking distance of the arena, so this is a good spot to grab food and drinks and or meet with your group before a concert or event. The pizza is thin crust and has a similar style to New Haven pizza. The flavor was great, but I felt like the center wasn't crispy enough to hold the slice up. It made things a little messy because the middle would flop while eating it. We ordered three small pies so we could try a few different combinations. One was the Weekend Special, which was a red pie with garlic, fresh basil, buffalo mozzarella, pepperoni, meatball, shaved Parmesan, and oregano. The small was $27, which I thought was pretty pricey for the portion. The other two were build your own pie; one white pie with basil and ricotta, and one red pie with pepperoni, meatball, and green pepper. All three pizzas tasted great. My main issue was the texture of the center. I prefer my pizza crispy enough that I can actually pick up a slice without everything sliding or folding over. Service was friendly and attentive enough, although I thought it was a little odd that my bartender disappeared and someone else took over without any explanation. My man tried a few of the beers and enjoyed being able to sample different options, while I went with a margarita flight. Overall, I liked the atmosphere and the pizza was tasty, but I definitely felt the pizzas were overpriced for the size and what you get.

But, sending out pies that were clearly under cooked and trying to rush us in and rush us out is just not cool. Server was very pleasant but overall the experience was not good. Also, small clam pie at $30, way way way over priced for basically 5 clams and cheese on uncooked dough. Second pie no better.
