Maybe it's the state of Connecticut since I'm not from here, but I've done a lot of traveling across the states and my go to drink is a vodka ginger ale with a double shot. You pay for the extra shot of alcohol. It's not that you're asking for extra booze in a drink for a cheaper price because a double shot is what you're asking to pay for. I'm a new local to old Saybrook and unfortunately I won't be coming back here. His lecture was that you never ask a bartender for a double shot. In my experience you're asking to pay for 2 drinks or 2 shots in one. Am in the wrong here? This has never happened to me, and again this is my go to drink. Anyways, I won't be coming back here after this. My boyfriend and I came in for a night cap despite being on the younger side of their typical crowd (we're pushing 30). I think there was a strong assumption and we were stereotyped based on looks. Mind you we had just walked in to sit down at the bar and order a single drink. Was disgusted by the treatment we received. I hope this place gets shut down.

Great Bar with Great Food…read more Oh how much I love the Half Keg. The quintessential old school dive bar, with amazing clientele and most important of them all a grill right behind the bar. Cheap beers, great music, strong drinks, friendliest patrons, all in a building that looks like a keg that was cut in half. Beyond cool spot. Tip: Delicious burgers and hand cut fries Tip 2: this place is situated between two small building so you can miss it. They also have a decent craft beer selection. I can give the place enough props. It consistently gets voted best dive bar in south eastern CT and for once these publications are not wrong. Love this Place Thanks

Half Keg Tavern is a historic neighborhood tavern that opened in New London, Connecticut in 1946…read more The tavern is housed inside a converted Quonset hut, which was likely picked up cheaply at the conclusion of World War II. The Half Keg stands out from other Connecticut drinking establishments in that it is technically a tavern as opposed to a bar. What's the difference? Bars can serve just about anything (including hard liquor), whereas taverns (once known as "public houses" back when residents were still British subjects) are places that can serve only beer, wine, cider, and food if they choose. At the time the Half Keg opened, there were maybe 700 taverns in Connecticut. Today, less than 10 Connecticut drinking establishments operate under a tavern license. A number of different owners have come and gone at the Half Keg, including longtime owners Ron & Maryann DiNoto. Since October 2016, the Half Keg has been owned and operated by Teresa Stomberg and her son David Donatello. The tavern serves a variety of domestic and foreign beer as well as a food menu of fresh handcrafted burgers, grinders, and a variety of bar bites. I recently visited the Half Keg for lunch while I was in the New London area. I arrived not long after they opened for the day. I pulled up a seat at the bar and began to peruse the menu. I first ordered a plate of "Fried Pickles", which were on the specials menu that day. Served with a dipping sauce, they were hot, crispy and very flavorful. I washed them down with a draught pour of Samuel Adams' "Summer Ale". Afterwards, I ordered a "Garlic & Onion Burger" (garlic & onion seasoned burger on a a garlic-buttered roll, slice of raw onion, lettuce, tomato) with a side of "Hand Cut Seasoned Fries". Don't expect anything particularly fancy here. It's just good, old-fashioned home cooking. No frills, no fuss; just fresh ingredients and good flavor! I washed my burger and fries down with a draught pour of Two Roads Brewing's "Two Juicy" (Double New England IPA). That lunch really hit the spot. I'd be interested in trying out one of their grinders on a return trip. If you're in the mood for a good sports game paired with a cold beer, good food, and the company of friendly locals, then head to the Half Keg!

While in Old Saybrook we came across Comfort Cafe, it's right next to Quality Inn Hotel. I think the guests of the hotel might be in on a pleasant surprise if they stop in here on a weekend night. Comfort Cafe aesthetically is nothing special, it just looks like a dive bar. They also serve food, I'm not familiar with it, we never saw a menu, or anyone order anything. My friend and I sat at the bar and had Twisted Teas to drink. This place ended up being a lot of fun! Singer after singer came on the dance floor, and brought the place to life. They even handed out instruments to random people. What a great touch! I've never seen this at a karaoke bar before. There were shakers, and tambourine drums, and the DJ himself had a djembe drum! This was so unexpected and lovely! People were dancing, singing and having a great time! I'm glad we discovered this hidden little gem.

You can also put quarters for the table on your tab if you don't have cash, which a lot of places won't do for you (the table is free some nights too!). I don't believe they serve food, but the beer and liquor is very reasonably priced and hits the spot every time.

It's not easy being a woman and being by yourself but Erin the bartender made me feel welcome right away. My battery almost died and she went above and beyond by lending me her personal charger. I was grateful due to the fact that my phone was dying. She handled the bar with ease. Most people seemed to know each other and were very pleasant. I saw a couple pool tables to the side. Keno was playing but I'm not sure what else they offered. TV's were on playing sports and the enthusiast were really enjoying the game. I had already eaten so I can't tell you about the food but from what I saw it looked delicious If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely stop in and hopefully it's Erin's shift.
