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.

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

Great breweries like Founders, Blue Point & Allagash. If you're looking for something other than the usual crap (they have that too) then check them out. They still get great up & coming indie bands so check out their Facebook for upcoming events.. It's always a good time to go whether it's busy or not. Did I mention that they renovated the bathroom? And what else can I say about local icon Sean Murray?

I had a SUBDuction and some pale ale named after a Navy ship. The Subduction was outstanding and can stand w/ the top tier of NEIPA. They have other alcoholic drinks for non-beer drinkers. I've been reliably informed they were good. No food and nothing delicious close. My guess is they bring in food trucks on busy nights. Will recommend and come back when in the area.

4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here. Skip to the end to see my rating scale…read more The big three things I look for most in a brewery are dog friendly area, decent food availability, and of course, quality beers. We didn't explore the food options around the area as we were just passing through, but it's in an area with multiple takeout options so you can always bring your own stuff in. I absolutely loved the atmosphere. It's a blue collar brewery - the customers and staff are clearly my kind of people. A couple of shipyard welders stopped by our picnic table outside to visit our dog and chat a minute. So the vibes are great - a place that I'd no doubt be a regular at if I didn't live 9 hours away. Solid beer selection and my flight didn't disappoint. I could have easily spent an entire evening there sipping on any one of them. It's located in a strip mall, so it's not in something like a gorgeous woodland or seaside setting, which is the only real reason I stop short of a five-star rating. But for sure, I'd happily drive a half hour out of my way to have a couple of beers here again. My rating scale: 1 - Just don't 2 - You'll survive, but there are better choices close by 3 - Good choice if you're in the area 4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here 5 - I'd try to convince my wife to drive an hour just to come here

First impressions mean a lot more than you think. We all felt uncomfortable here. The venue itself…read moreis nice but I feel like it draws the wrong crowd. For example: there was a fight in the parking lot that had workers running out to intervene. It was so bad the police had to be called. The snacks are frozen; the beer was good. On the plus side they have a couple free Chex mix dispensers. First impressions matter - we would definitely not come back.

I have been here about 3 times. Had not returned only because the service had been rough before. I…read moream sure some of you had experienced it before but I will recommend you give them another chance. I remember standing waiting for about 20 minutes for a beer more than once before and not able too. We had order food that never came and we had to leave. But now they have enough staff and they are quicker. They also implemented a better ordering system and I think that made all the difference. This place always looked amazing inside. The decor and look inside is pleasant and just goes with the music; and the name. They have a great selection of beers and although they are not super cold it is good. This is not your typical bar & Grill; so no they don't have a kitchen. For FOOD just know they have limited menu of items. Pizza and pretzels are made in a quick small oven by the bar. But I have to say it was good. I had the margarita pizza and we ate it all. Eat before you come or just know these are snacks. They have a band playing and we loved it. I always end up dancing here. They usually have a band playing Fridays, Saturdays and sometimes Sunday. So check out their Facebook page for updates. It is a great hangout place for after work or meeting up friends.

We were visiting Mystic looking for a place to eat on a Friday night. After all of the more well…read moreknown restaurants in the area were booked, we decided to try Favorites. What a great find! Everyone in our party of 5 enjoyed their meals. Food was delicious. Well seasoned but not overly spicy. Waitress was delightful and provided great service. We sat inside but would definitely sit outside on deck on a return trip. Treat yourself and give Favorites a try.

I've been coming to Favorites since they opened a few years ago, but I've never gotten around to…read morewriting a review. They absolutely deserve one, so this is why I've come back over and over! Atmosphere/Appearance: Set right on the main strip of Bank Street is this Haitian/Caribbean themed restaurant. There's no private parking, but there's usually some street parking available. But once inside the decor is kept light, creating a vary open and spacious feeling. There's a flower wall of course with some neon signs and stuff. But if you continue all the way through the restaurant you can go right out the back onto their patio which faces the water! It's such a beautiful vibe out there. However, the Amtrak train runs along the water as well and every so many minutes you may get a blast from the train's horn. Lol. But the atmosphere is lively with good music, but certainly not loud. Service: Majin (sp) and her husband (the owners) are almost always present. You can find them in the kitchen, behind the bar or out front talking to guests. They're so friendly, personable and welcoming. KP is the bartender with such a bright and bubbly personality! Food/Drinks: I've been here about 3 to 4 times and have had so many things here. You can't go wrong with the corn ribs, conch chowder, any flavor of wings or the brunch tostadas! Value: Nothing too crazy. Not expensive, but not cheap. You do get your money's worth, I can tell you that! In conclusion, I'll keep on coming here. I love the atmosphere, location and of course the food! Check this place out if you're in the area!

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.

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.

We ordered rather quickly when someone came to the table as we were afraid if we didn't it might be a long time before we saw someone again. Food took a very long time to come out, but it was worth the wait. I had a delicious Reuben with amazing house made fresh potato chips and my husband had chicken tenders and fries.
