If it sticks & you can't get it to un-stick with some gentle smacks, the very sweet bartender will unlock it for you. There was a band playing when we were there - I think "City of Meriden" was the name? Super good, super funky, super weird. The cover was $10 per person. Worth it.

What's not to love about 33? It's everything you could ever want in a dive bar…read more The bartenders are all extremely friendly and accommodating, the live music is great, the pool table is (mostly) level and typically uncrowded. 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.

The regulars were so nice, we met the new owner Jen who was amazing and so was her daughter who was working behind the bar. The cook Jess was so amazing to all of us (even after multiple cocktails and shots) The karaoke dj was so superb and even had an amazing voice himself. He got us all singing and dancing. If you're looking for a good time with great people, drinks and bar food definitely check out Richonis!

It would easily be a 5-star review if it weren't for a shocking and completely unacceptable incident at the very end of the night. About two minutes after closing, a bartender threw away my drinks. When I politely called her out on it, she became extremely entitled, aggressive, and rude. Instead of handling the situation professionally, she escalated it to physical assault and threw a beer directly in my face. It is incredibly disappointing that such a great venue is being ruined by an employee who thinks it's acceptable to assault paying customers. Loving the atmosphere doesn't excuse violence. I have already documented the incident and will be following up with management/authorities, but until this specific bartender is held accountable and terminated, I cannot recommend coming here. Patrons beware.

On nights when it's a bit quieter a lot of times that I've been there bartenders on staff will start conversations and come up with random trivia or things to do that will include everyone at the bar and generally begin a group conversation which always leads to people meeting one another and having a lot of fun. I've never had a bad time when I've chosen to go in there. And while you're there do yourself a favor and get a shot of the in-house apple pie moonshine. It is a must-have.

The old place had the…read morecool boat-shaped bar, front porch great for hanging out and people watching, and cool back patio with train and sea views. It was a little sketch which gave it some personality. The new spot is boring, might be better suited for restaurant rather than a bar. I never felt the old spot was "cliquey" but the new one is.. we struck up many conversations at the old spot but the new one everyone just looks down at their phones unless you're in the clique that sits against the back of the bar. The bartender is a pleasant guy but not overly social if he doesn't know you well. Disappointing.

We went in for a couple beers and some wings and stayed for hours. Wings were great, cooked and dressed properly. We met a lot of nice people.

Great Dive Bar - Delicious Food…read more Ryans is old dive bar pub with dated decor (which is a good thing) and plenty of food and drink deals. The food at this pub is spot on. I love their kickin chickin. its a great value and you can choose the sauce and trust me, i've tried all of them and they are all fantastic. also, the lobster roles and fried seafood are of the quality you would see at a seafood restaurant but without the high cost. Definitely check this place out if you are in Groton area. Thanks

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.

True Score: 3.25 Stars…read more Cool dive near the casino. A dive for sure, and a friend had suggested we go because he wanted to play pool, but that's probably all the Brown Derby has going for it aside from maybe seeing folks you know locally.
