    This place was awesome came in for dinner before going to the tulip farm, the service was great food came out in a timely fashion the atmosphere was perfect !!!!! For apps we both had New England homemade chowder .....the biggest bowl of perfect soup I've ever had....... For entree I had the avocado blt sandwhich with the 8 oz medium rare burger patty. Side of fries He had the prime rib with Corn, mash and gravy... both of which were delicious!!! But too big so brining half home for a little snacks snack

    The margaritas flights were amazing the food we ordered was very delicious. I would recommend it .

    Food was ok, mad oily but ok. The waitress was nice but the only thing that was concerning was the timing. The food took forever to come out. 30+ minutes for appetizers, 30+ more minutes for main courses and almost another 30 for the check. Luckily we were relaxing but sooo hungry and the place was not that busy.

    Was stopping through town before heading to Foxwoods. Bartender was welcoming the food was great.

    I want to give this place 5 stars so bad but I can't because of the atmosphere. Our waitress was amazing & the food was DELICIOUS! Unfortunately, it was more of a biker bar/ pub. My boyfriend & I sat outside because inside was noisy. A little into our meal a group of 6 sat outside and they were non stop swearing & yelling making it super unpleasant. The food and cocktails are way too good for the bar vibe that it is. Either way, I highly suggest ordering from there- if loud bars & drunk people are your thing then eat there, if not get it to go. We started with 2 cocktails which were amazing. My boyfriend & I both got stuffies and they were cooked perfect and tasted great. I ordered angel hair Alfredo with crispy chicken because someone else posted that on here & it was the best Alfredo I've ever had. My boyfriend got the lobster roll special with homemade kettle chips. He was so impressed. And we took fried Oreos home to go because it was my birthday & we couldn't stand the customers next to us.

    The food selection is excellent! The waitress was very nice and attentive. They had quite a bit of food choices for my Vegan son which is unusual but much appreciated!! It's hard to find food options for him in a restaurant. All of our food was excellent. The place is very clean including the bathroom . It was a bit on the cold side, I. Would avoid sitting up front near the doors in the winter. And bear in mind through they had vegan burgers and patty's they didn't have any vegan bread at all so just be aware abs plan to use lettuce instead unless they add something to their bread choices. On a whole great experience. The prices were reasonable. We would drive the 1 1/2 hours bank again to eat again and plan to!

    Vegan chicken burger with delicious onion rings!

    This was a spur of the moment stop for some vegan grub and I have to say my son and I were impressed! The food was delicious and the drinks were top notch! The waitress was very friendly and checked in on us throughout our meal.

    Chicken avocado salad with bacon and balsamic drizzle. OMG so good. Huge!! Had enough for a meal next day.

    Is it worth the trek out to semi-rural Griswold, CT for these sandwiches? In a word - yes! Make…read more The. Trip. It's an unassuming little shop in a nondescript strip mall, but this modest appearance belies some major sandwich mojo. Bread rolls from Brooklyn; from scratch pesto and other sauces; high quality meats and cheeses. And the best ingredient: care. These 3 friendly ladies were pleasant, friendly, and serious sandwich makers. My daughter's The Franky was terrific, a perfect piling of juicy roast beef, cheeses, and veggies (I snagged a bite since I was buying). My wife's caprese sandwich was very good. And my Spencer's Smashed Balls (a meatball sub) was excellent.

Break'n Bread Sandwich Shoppe delivered in every way. When you walk in the front door you see the chalkboard menus, pastries lined like trophies, the warm, hometown vibe made us feel instantly welcome. Sarah, the owner's cousin, greeted us like family and clearly proud of what is being built here! I ordered The Godfather, "a sandwich you can't refuse". Perfectly stacked, rich with flavor, and balanced like it was crafted by a culinary consigliere. My wife's Car's Caprese was fresh and vibrant, while our friend's Chicken Parm vanished before my eyes as it was unwrapped. In a world full of forgettable chains, this place stands as proof that passion still matters. Break'n Bread isn't just a shop, it's a reminder of what real food and real people can create together.

The place is super cute and decorate well! It's clean and a everyone was so nice and attentive which made for a really welcoming environment. I really wanted to love the food but my Italo Peruano was way too spicy when the description on the menu/the ingredients listed didn't indicate anything that would give it that much heat. Also the steak was cut very large for being served in a pasta dish and in a bowl where it was very difficult to cut it. The Lomo was good but too salty. The dessert we shared however was amazing! We got the churros which came with chocolate sauce, strawberry puree and Lucuma ice cream! They told us it was a South American fruit! It's hard to describe the flavor but it was awesome! Kind of like a caramel/butterscotch with notes of sweet potato and maple syrup! It doesn't sound like it would all work together but it absolutely does! Overall we had a good experience and would be totally willing to come try the food again next time we are in the area!

The prime rib was great, I'm just not a big meat eater so a side of Angel hair pasta would be amazing (they only have spaghetti or penne).

High energy, friendly, and knows everything on this menu which has like a hundred items. Fantastic personality. I stepped into 1975. There is a salad bar with a sneeze guard. There was soup and salad. Fresh. I didn't have the soup but my friend said it was ok. But know what happened, people on line at the salad bar talked to eachother. So now you know, it's Friday night and the place is packed. Energy high, people having fun and cross table conversation. It's not a dinner, but the menu reminds me of one. Food is better than a diner and seems made here. But there is so much I'm not sure how it all could be. Maybe because it's a small town, and they hire right, with good food. It's like cheers in here. It might not be a Michelin star resturant but I have never had a complete stranger at a Michelin star resturant hand out with me at the salad bar and discuss which homemade bread might be better. Now one thing interesting. Two tables over someone brought their own bottle of pepsi and has their iPhone propped up watching TV without headsets. I can hear it. It's not quiet here, but this is out of place and out of line. But not the resturant fault. The staff hasn't stopped, and they are not shorted handed. There is an insane amount of staff on. Both front and back of the house. Side notes. The table next to me got the veal parm, it looked fantastic. He didn't finish half of it, the serving was huge. There is a fresh lobster tank I hope you come experience it here. The locals will probably mad but you'll thank me.
