We have visited many Sliders, our final one is in Newington as we live in the area now. This location by far wins. All 7 times we have been there, they have been very consistent with their food. The wait staff is awesome and the General Manager Mike is great. He is helping his staff, always smiling, talking and making his customers feel like family. Thank you Newington Sliders!! keep it up. read more

it was my first time coming to Sliders girll & bar. Came here with a couple of my friends. The service was great, the food was amazing. The manager Mike came to our table and ask how was everything and welcomed us to this place. I would definitely come here again with my friends and family in the near future. read more

My family and I just had dinner at your Berlin location and it was wonderful! Carly was very attentive and recommended the Buffalo blue cheese which my wife loved, the kitchen was fantastic! Kathleen brought all our food over in a timely manner and she was lovely. Mike the manager came over and asked us how everything was and we let him know he runs a well oiled establishment! We will definitely be back! read more

Awesome food, nice space but the food takes entirely too long to come out. Wings are nice size and flavorful...just took entirely too long! We ordered additional wings to go once our food was delivered. We finished our meal, paid the check, and still not ready. It's been about 40 mins. The place isn't even crowded. It's like they are cooking one wing at a time. LOL read more

This used to be the place to go for wings. My last few experiences were sub-standard at best but I decided to try again today. I wanted naked wings seasoned with salt and pepper. Side note: they don't have rosemary. When I got home the wings were doused in so much pepper I laid them out on paper towel and tried rubbing off the excess pepper. When that didn't work I had no choice but to run them under hot water. I don't usually call businesses to complain but the thought of an inexperienced cook grossly over seasoning someone else's food prompted me to call. I will say that is the last time I go there. read more

I'd been to the one in Plainville, and this was my first trip to the one in Berlin. I was a little disappointed with the sauces, but overall it was an ok trip. My favorite sauce from this establishment is the Flaming Raspberry, which is only one level above the hottest sauce on the menu. Unfortunately, it tasted more like a tangy raspberry vinaigrette instead of the heat I'm used to. Still very good, but not what I wanted. We also ordered hot buffalo (no heat) and the General Tso's (no heat). I don't know what was going on in there. I wanted spicy wings, not chicken fingers. On the other hand, they *were* chicken fingers. The 6 boneless "wings" were huge. I'm used to little nuggets of chicken with lots of breading - these were full on chicken tenders. The chicken seemed freshly fried, it wasn't dry, and there wasn't toooooo much breading on it. They were also really cool about "extra celery" which came out in a huge basket (for $1) - I just meant a few extra stalks! Our server was pretty cool, and attentive, until we needed the check. Oh well. It's got decent "wings," but if I wanted actual heat I might go to BW3's. read more

Pretty fun place. Lots of sports screens accompanied by beer. Even though its called sliders, its the wings here that shine. A large number of flavors to choose from, as well as dips. Other food fair is okay. Parking is ample unless there is a game going on, at which point if flows into the street. read more

Great food and beer, been coming here about 5 years now. My lady and I always enjoy a late night wing session here and and never had a bad thing to say about the place. Would be 5 stars but Allstar by Smashmouth is banned on the jukebox and that's not acceptable. read more

Sliders Grill & Bar - All Star by Smashmouth is banned on this jukebox. Huge turn off! - Sports Bars Near Me - Berlin, Connecticut

When my partner told me that there was a Sliders near Stew Leonard's I was confused. I'd never seen one near the turnpike but I was game to try it. It's nestled behind the turnpike amongst a bunch of houses in a neighborhood. It seemed strange. When we got in, it said to seat yourself. It was around 2:30pm on a Monday. The only waitress in the whole place also happened to be the bartender and there were about 6-8 tables plus people at the bar so she was busy. After waiting serval minutes I grabbed some menus. When she finally came over she said she hadn't noticed us, and apologized. She also didn't have anything to write with so she took the back of someone else's check to write our order on. We ordered the cheesy bacon tots (yum), a Cobb salad (yum), and a taco salad (eh). The cheesy bacon tots had what tasted like American cheese on them. They were crispy, salty, and delicious. My taco salad left a lot to be desired. It didn't taste like the beef was seasoned and there was probably an entire can of olives on it. My partner loved his Cobb salad. Hit or miss apparently. read more

I love Sliders, trust me, LOVE Sliders. But today I received really bad service. Like I feel hurt. Like you know that feeling after a break-up, yup me. I think I broke up with Sliders today. I walked in, my boyfriend and I have been on vacation, first night back in town and decided, date night, let's go out to Sliders. We sat at the bar, ordered some drinks, put our food in, we don't even need menus anymore, and waited. The usual. Food comes out, I was excited, maple bacon wings and some tater tots, yum. I immediately start grabbing some tots, and then take a bite from my wings, cold. I thought maybe it's just that one, take a bite from the other one, cold. I can be picky so I tell my boyfriend to take a bite, he says cold. He takes a bite from his wings, cold. So we let the waitress know, "the wings are cold", she gets who I guess is her boss to take them and let the guys in the back know that they were cold. She told us "10 minutes guys, fresh wings are coming". Ok 10 minutes that's fine. Other customers came in, they put in their food after the fact, but somehow got their food before us, we waited a little longer, me still eating tots and excited for wings. The manager, GM, don't know, later comes over to the guy sitting next to me(I'm at the bar) and tells him "the wings weren't cold, the sauce was." The guy nods and smiles. I guess he use to work there. As soon as I heard that, I felt hurt. Like I have came here multiple times, I have never gotten bad service or had a bad experience, if anything I love it, whenever my boyfriend and I want to enjoy a drink and have some wings, Sliders we put YOU first. I didn't say anything, but excuse me? I bit into the wing, I felt that it was cold, did you bite into it? I can be picky which is why I handed it to my boyfriend and he said "no it's cold", I'm paying for this, I'm not getting it for free. At this point I wanted to leave, but my boyfriend is hungry, so we waited. 10 minutes go by, 15 minutes go by, 20 minutes go by, and finally someone comes over and says "hey there are some wings sitting there, who are they for?" We asked for the check, I'm sure they were already cold. I came home hungry. I don't know what to say other than I wish it wasn't talked about in front of me. If a customer is wrong and you want to vent, please let it be far from the customer. I don't recommend this location, the Wallingford one is a lot better. read more

I think I may have walked into a episode of Bar Rescue and not have known it. (Sarcasm) My husband, son and I were headed home from a baseball game tonight. He happened to have a gift certificate to Sliders. After looking it up and seeing it had numerous locations we decided to go to the one in Berlin. What. A. Mistake. Firstly, we walked in and stood by a sign that stated wait to be seated. We were ignored for a few minutes which should have been a sign that this was not going to be a good experience. Finally tired of waiting for a waitress to sit us we sat our selves. One waitress was with her back towards is while the other waitress was eating dinner a few tables away. Again we went unnoticed until my husband got up to grab someone's attention. The food came late and cold. It was obvious that it was sitting for a while. Burgers were run of the mill and tasteless. The boneless wings (which was suppose to be our appetizers) were soggy and barely Luke warm and came out with our main meal. My "steak sliders" are something I would make if I had only had potatoes buns left over flank steak and onions on hand. It lacked taste and was less than appetizing. Listen I am a very patient and tolerant person but this by far has made it to my top 10 worst dining experiences. This was like watching a bad episode of bar rescue and I am NOT exaggerating with the comparison. Will not be back. Go to Chicago Sam's. Better atmosphere, better food. read more

Stopped in at sliders in Berlin CT, asked the bartender (Vicki) for a recommendation and she suggested the Apple Turnover Martini. let's just say it was sweet seasonal treat! absolutely delicious. There was a lovely waitress there as well (Lexy) who I asked for the second recommendation, I was looking for something refreshing. she chose a cucumber martini. every sip was clean and refreshing! kudos to these ladies for making my experience pleasurable! read more

Food was very good but service was horrible last night. I'm a server myself and I could see she literally had 3 tables and was having a hard time paying attention to our table. First the guys asked her for Budweiser's and sh brought out 2 bottles of bud light after 10 minutes of waiting for our drinks. drinks weren't being paid attention to, and she never asked us how our food was. Which I feel as if every waitress should do after the first couple bites to make sure nothing is wrong at the table. My friend didn't like his boneless wings and he only took one bite. She didn't ask if anything was wrong with it just gave him a box to wrap it up. I asked her for a coke and she said she was waiting for the bar for it......for a coke? Really? Also asked her to split the bill at the beginning of the night and she didn't do that even tho i told her at the end of our meal to split it as well. This place would be a lot better if they had a good attentive wait staff. Very disappointed. read more

Service was quick and everyone was friendly. The sangria was fabulous, boneless wings and mac n cheese bites were flavorful.

I almost dislike the fact that I like this place. They have tons of locations, and it almost feels like a chain restaurant. But you know what? I guess there's a reason they have a ton of locations... they're successful, and good. Wednesday night is $5 boneless wings night, $2 less than the usual charge for a small serving. It was also happy hour (4-6 and 10-close), so there were $5 regular wings too. I went for a serving of each... Hot & Sweet and Maple Bacon.... mmmmmm. Big wings, big white meat chicken chunks with crispy breading, Ranch dressing. The American meal at its fattiest. Biggest thanks to the manager. Because of their automated ordering system, I wasn't properly charged the happy hour price for some of my items. But the manager saw I ordered my first beer well before 6, and she fixed the situation. No questions asked, she totally understood that it took until a few minutes past six to order wings at a busy bar. They must have renovated recently. I heard this place was a dump, but it is decidedly not. read more

Here I sit at Sliders, trying to watch the last game of the MLB series, Red Sox vs Baltimore for a play off spot and all of the TVs in the bar are offline because the Direct Tv satellite receivers have lost their satellite signals in light rain. Patrons openy " thank" Direct TV while we sip our beers, wipe our chins from a chicken wing slurry, and check our cell phones for the box score. Fortunately there is free wifi for updates and the ability to post yelpreviews in real time. Sorry but I consider a sports bar without a working tv a major failing; right up there with non working bathrooms. read more

Lousy service, plain and simple. Used to be a frequent patron. They didn't even bring 1/2 my food order out & the couldn't care less. No more..... They even turned the baseball game off that we were watching and put on wheeler dealer...? Sports bar??? What a shame this place has slipped so low. read more

Not my idea to go, but my friend wanted to go there. Being the sports bar it is and targeting hungry jocks and sports fans, I was expecting to get a lot of food, but was disappointed with the rinky dink portion of my boneless strawberry jalapeno wings. I wanted to say who do you think I am, Victoria Beckham? lol The service was solid and it was in town. I have heard that the other Sliders locations are better. I will try Sliders again, but at a different location. read more

Good spot for HH. met a few associates there and they had a good beer selection, excellent wings and of course a variety of sporting events on. The HOT wasn't as hot as we thought it would be so be advised. read more

I contacted Sliders a few weeks ago about having my group come by after an event we were holding down the street. We weren't looking for anything formal, more of a heads up that a group of 50-60 would be coming in on a Thursday night. A manager got back to me and told me it wasn't a problem, and when I asked about discounts and special for my group, I was told that they already had happy hour from 8-10pm and they couldn't do anything else. I said that was fine, and began promoting this to my group. The day of my event (2/6) I called Sliders to confirm that they knew my group would be coming in, and I was told that they were all set, and I confirmed that they would have happy hour from 8-10pm. Later in the evening as my group began to arrive at Sliders, I received messages saying that they were being told that happy hour didn't start until 10pm that night (later than most of my group would be there). I called and spoke to the General Manager, who confirmed that happy hour didn't start until 10pm, and she didn't know why her staff told me 8-10pm, but that there was nothing she could do. I asked if there was anything she could offer, and she said no. I explained that I had talked to multiple people (her staff) who told me the offer, and that I had promoted it to my group, and that had been the reason we chose that location, and she continued to say that there was nothing she could do. She eventually said she would put out chips and salsa, but that was it. I understand that there can be miscommunications, or lack of communication within her staff, but they are her staff. If I was told multiple times that we would get happy hour specials, I expect to get them whether they are regularly offered or not. I have over a decade of customer service experience, and if any of my staff promised something to a customer (who was bringing 60 people that would not normally be there) I would follow through on that promise. We were really disappointed, and will not return to this location. I gave two stars because I was told by multiple people in my group that the wait staff was really apologetic about the situation, and that my group really appreciated that. Had that not been the case, I would have given one star. read more

Food was great, drinks were cold. Service took extra long, but the place wasnt even packed. Definitely a new employee was working. Was a little Frustrated at first but overall im never upset with the product. read more

Definitely have some great wings that hit the spot! However, the service is terrible! It was not very crowded at all while we were there. When we got there most of the other customers had food already. We had put in our order right away when we got there. It was just two of us and we ordered 24 wings. It took about a little over 40 minutes to get our food. The wings were great with lots of sauce and a good amount of veggies. The waitress did not bring us our check for almost 20 minutes after we finished eating. Just VERY slow service, only reason I'm giving 3 stars is because the wings were awesome. Side note: bathroom was not clean! It looked like someone blew their nose in the sink.. read more

Horrible horrible service and disgusting food I ordered the eight piece wing and it was all grease it was disgusting I couldn't even finish it the only thing good about it was the salad. If I could give them less than one star I would rude and arrogant workers place has gotten run down in the past few years. Head chef for ratatouille works behind the kitchen to probably rats under some peoples heads also. read more

First time visit. Has the typical sports bar feel, lots of tvs etc. It was a very light crowd yet service was surprisingly slow. The bartender did not have a grasp of the beer list but in fairness the list and tasting notes were available. Moving to the menu. Plenty of normal sports bar fare with some add one. We had the flat iron sliders which were tasty but served lukewarm. The prices are decent. If I get a chance I will stop in again and provide an update read more

So we were a bit skeptical driving here, it's on a residential road. It looks like the one in Plainville. We were a bit unsure walking in.... ...but, it's great! It's definitely cleaner than all of the other Sliders I've been to, (except WH, but that one is actually TOO clean...I know, sounds weird, but sometimes a little bit of "dirt" gives the place character). For a Monday it was super busy! They have a great late night happy hour, and the food was hot and delicious. My favorite are the grilled cheese bites and pickle chips. Bartenders were attentive and friendly. Management was present the entire time. The bartender was by no means behind but it was nice to see the manager helping her and making sure all of the guests were satisfied. Drinks and food came out in a reasonable amount of time, given the volume of people. Beer selection was decent, nothing crazy, but they offer 22oz beers which are more "limited", per say. I'd totally come back here for a late night bite and a drink! read more

I've been to this sliders multiple times for lunch and for drinks. The majority of the times I've been served immediately upon sitting down. Unfortunately this past Sunday the service was terrible. I sat down at a high top table by the bar waiting for my boyfriend, I sat for 15- 20 mins and NO wait staff came to help me. Two younger gentle man were sitting next to me at another table and all the wait staff stopped to say hi and chit chat with them, however none of them asked if I was being helped, no eye contact even. After twenty minutes I moved over to the bar, where the two bar tenders were very respective to a new patron at the bar... beer and menu in less than three mins! Besides the slow wait staff, the quality of the food and atmosphere is right on with sliders. This is a great place to meet up with friends to watch a game. The food is consistent, fresh and responsibly priced. read more

I went here for dinner before a baseball game. The place seems like it could be a lot of fun at night, but it was a good casual dinner place, too. I got the bases loaded chicken, which was very good. The onion rings, which you can get free with the meal, were great. One of my friends got the home run burger, which he liked, and the other got the insane wings. He said they were pretty insanely hot. The waitress was extremely friendly and a lot of fun. We had a great time, and will be back soon. read more

Food was very good. Service was very good. Problem is that the manager thinks she is above the law and safety of the patrons that eat there. She was the only employee that I saw who choose to not wear a mask correctly. Had it on her ears but below her chin. Never covering her mouth or nose the entire 1 and 15 minutes that I was there. If that was not bad enough, she was hugging customers and shaking hands all while not really wearing a mask. read more

I've been a sliders girl for years and never even thought to write a review, but after my great experience today, i knew i had to. Sliders is a straight up sports bar, and excels in its pov (point of view). They're known for their wings (which are excellent), but have so much else to offer. Namely- their bartenders- in my experience- are incredibly, consistently helpful and friendly. I'd personally like to single out veronica and lindsey, 2 of the sweetest bartenders i've ever met. This place is clearly a locals joint, and they embrace that concept to a T. Even though it seems weird, i generally order the soup of the day. I love soup, and they actually make their own. Today was a delish roasted eggplant/tomato thing, but i've also had a bangin' corn chowder, yummy classic new england clam chowder, and a thai chicken soup that was reminiscent of tom yum. For real, in a wing place! They have about 20 different wing sauces, about 18 of which i've tried. I prefer the medium buffalo, but their garlic parmesan is out of this world (though probably, like, serious 10th date material- no sooner. In a good way.) Other menu items like burgers, sandwiches, and salads round out the menu, which is larger than one might expect. Appetizers are particularly indulgent, including fried mac and cheese, grilled cheese bites (with tomato soup), and buffalo chicken dip (soo good- i get it with celery instead of the tortilla chips). Spicy (seasoned curly) fries are excellent, though i don't order them often. Food can take a bit longer than expected, but it's worth it. As for the scene, i'll be honest: i either come here for some alone time and to watch the yankees game, or specifically to meet people. There is a group of guys who are there literally every. Single. Day. They're not my favorites, but they're definitely harmless. That said, this also is not a place to meet people, in my experience and opinion. This, however, might be a place to meet a 1 night stand (whether that is opinion or experience is for me to know...) Sliders does a great job ay being a sports bar/wing place- enjoy it for what it is. Everyone needs a local joint. Oh! AND they have wi-fi. read more

Very typical chain american bar & grill. They do have a good selection of beers on tap and the food was always good. One thing that I didn't like very much was the burger menu. The options were pretty limited, although you can build your own burger. However, in order to have your burger cooked to anything other than well-done you have to get an 8 oz burger which consists of two 4 oz patties pressed together & grilled -- but even then it is cooked well-done. This is a place to go grab a few beers and watch a game but nothing special past that. read more

They are slippin. The place was not busy, but it took us over an hour to get in and out (2 people, ordering off happy hour menu). The waitress was nice. The boneless wings were puny, and the bone in wings were not entirely crispy, some soft flappy skin, and the pretzels were overcooked and hard. read more

Typical Sports Bar atmosphere. Comfortable and well lit. I was in the mood for wings so I tried the Polynesian which was pineapple and ginger sauce, and the Mango Habenero sauce. 6 of each for $11. They were a good size, crispy and lots of finger lickin' good sauce. The mango Habenero was flavorful, but I would have liked it a little hotter. Next time I'll have to move up the hot scale and get something with a little more bite. Service was good, andmy vegetarian waitress tried her best to help me choose from the large variety of wings they offer on the menu. I'll visit again when I'm in the area. read more

Great wings! Try the Cajun- who knew they'd be so good??? After 10 years of Buffalo, i've branched out and this dry rub is simple and delicious. Also, here's a tip- if you like your wings, order them "Well Done." They'll come out crispy, but not dried out.....otherwise, they'll be slightly rubbery. read more

Consistently inconsistent! If only they could get it right and keep it that way. They have a lot potential but the turnover of staff in all of their locations and the inconsistencies with food make us question whether or not it's worth returning. Tonight we called in an order of 24 buffalo blue wings and when we got home and opened the bag up we found flavorless wings with barely any sauce on them. Everyone was disappointed. We have ordered decent wings from Sliders in the past but the amount of sauce you put on your wings is different with every order and opening our order at home to find almost no sauce at all on our wings tonight was just unacceptable. read more

Love the wings!! Came here once before and the place is still great :D. It's a sports bar but don't let that turn you off. In comparison to Wings over ______ they are great! I will say that Wings has the BEST honey mustard and Sliders has the best garlic and parm chesse wings....YUM!!! So all in all awesome wings! The service here is great too. They are patient and really do their best. read more

Sliders Grill & Bar - Sports Bars Near Me - Berlin, Connecticut

So the server was nice but either drunk or just forgetful and slow. The food was mediocre at best, the bacon on burger was the best and worst thing about my burger. You could tell it was cheap and terrible cuts of bacon, but its bacon. I ordered the 5 oz portion I'm fairly certain I got the 8oz. The curly fries were great, which is why I gave 2 stars. The fried pickles and peppers would have been great if the server hadn't forgotten to put that part of the order in first. Nothing like receiving your meal and then asking the server if she planned on bringing them out and her saying "oh crap". Had to ask for the usual things mayo, napkins... if she had checked in on us sooner we could have asked about the appetizer.... especially considering the place was all but dead. As much as I consistently dislike this place, my husband loves the strawberry jalapeno wings so I go along for the cause. The carribean rum punch drink would better if it was a drink and not stuffed with a bunch of fruit that I have to pick out. Nothing like an expensive drink that really isn't much of a drink. read more

Sliders Grill & Bar - Schmeh - Sports Bars Near Me - Berlin, Connecticut

I have been coming here for approx 4 years now as it is close to work and the atmosphere is great and beer is ice cold! I had Amy as a bartender and as always she is on point and I never had an empty glass which is always a plus. I had the wings platter which never disappoints as long as you order well done to get that little bit of crisp under that delicious sauce. read more

Wings were cold when I got them and all the bartender seemed to care about was tending to her boyfriend across the way. Also, might have been the manager? Not sure, but he was wearing his mask, but not covering his nose. So why have it on? Alarming that Sliders, as much as they charge for things, doesn't put enough into training someone correctly. Puh, typical. read more

Oh Sliders... how I want to write a good review for you, but I just can't, not after my experience there last Friday. We stopped by Sliders while driving through CT last Friday and what we experienced was nothing like what I remembered. I should have been suspicious when I had no problem parking in the parking lot- back when I lived in New Britain, on a Friday night you could expect the entire street to be lined with parked cars due to a full parking lot. I ordered a Blue Moon and my friend decided to just get a diet coke since he was driving, and then he ordered some wings while I got the cheese steak sandwich. I was disappointed to see the re-vamped menu, with some of my favorites like the Triple Play sandwich obviously missing. Our food was slow to come out and both of us were, to say the least, extremely disappointed. The wings my friend had always loved were nothing like what they used to be- the sauce was runny and seemingly sloshed on as an afterthought and the chicken itself was a lot lower quality than usual. These weren't the same wings any more. My sandwich was absolutely terrible- the steak pieces were huge and to make matters worse, were completely full of fatty gristle that made chewing each bite up a very unpleasant experience. Part of using lower quality steak for sandwiches means actually cutting it up, not using huge pieces that are impossible to chew. What really got me though was the $2 soda and the fact that you get only one refill. Really, guys? It was $2.50 for Bud Light and you're charging a full $2 for some carbonated water and syrup with a single refill? Our waitress of course waited until my friend was out of his free refill and trying to finish his hot wings to tell him that. So, $4 worth of soda and $20 worth of crappy food later, we were back on the road and wondering why we didn't just go to the New Britain diner for dinner. Sorry Sliders, but you're being dumped. I'll give up the convenience and instead drive a little further to J Timothy's and get delicious dirt wings and unlimited refills on soda, when I have a hankering. read more

Love love love this sliders! Wait staff is amazing and attentive and the food is consistently good and comes out fast! Lots of regulars!
