50 Best Bars near Avon

“This place was beyond amazing. I have been here personally for food with friends before but never for an event. I used this place for my 2 month old baby’s baptism luncheon. (On st Patrick’s day) Shannon, the event manager was absolutely fabulous to work with. She even followed up with me after her first email since I have a terrible memory and forgot to reply to the first outreach. She made the whole event super easy and seamless. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate that. I am a new mom with a 2 month old so complicated processes will never get done. Shannon made everything super easy and friendly. She was available by phone and email. Any questions I had she comfortable to ask and when I changed the salad she made it seem like it was nothing. I cannot say enough great things about her. (P.s this place was extremely well priced too for absolutely FABULOUS food) The day of, we were 30 minutes early and the room was all ready for us and let us choose whether to be in the room or hang out at the bar. Jackie was our waitress and she was amazing! I am a neurotic mom who can’t remember anything and she totally helped me out. When I was walking around talking to guests she brought the drinks to me. She was beyond professional, kind, helpful and nice to all of our guests and us and our family. We got TONS of compliments on Jackie and the food. We got the bronze package and replaced the salad with a Cesar salad, the chicken plate, steak and pasta bolognese. Delicious! They were the perfect portions and super tasty. Again, we cannot say enough great things about Jackie! We had extra people show up and within moments she had spaces created for them. She and her team were great and I hope she knows how wonderful she made the day!“

“I'm new to Hartford Connecticut I've lived here less than a year. I also don't really drink ever. Lately I've wanted to be social so I check this place out. The people I've met here for the most part are really great people easy to talk to and it's a laid-back place. I really like it here I think you might too. 😁“

“The only thing here is that they denied me a drink one time i walked in and i still had 10 mins before last call and the perseon saod we dont just serve anyone off the street at this time... I was so upset. I will never forget that. The owner must think he is better than the people who keep him in business if thats the way he treats us. Its us that keep him in business he should remind his bartenders that as well. Food is great but always wOut of wings..... Come on thats the go to food for the bar. But besides that the bartenders are nice and the bar is clean cheaper than Ledgends and some other bars.“

“Great bar. Karaoke every day, great service and newly reflected pool tables. Amazing wings too! Giancarlo is the best host/Bartender you'll ever meet.“

“Always great experiences here
Jenn and the bartenders are very attentive to the people in the bar.
Everyone is inviting and it's a comfortable place to enjoy an after work drink, enjoy sports and company
10 out of 10 recommend.
Never fails, always come back“

“Great place to eat and socialize. Friendly and low key vibe. I love their smash burgers and fries, maple chicken, shrimp tacos, and more. Staff and owner are great. You can do take out orders too.“

“Oh my god. The food is so good. The parking is horrible however the food more than makes up for it. We had trouble getting here since they opened but finally could and I'm so mad we waited to come here so long. Being vegetarian it's hard to find good food that isn't boring. Problem forever solved here. Husband and I both got the vegetable Pad See Ew. It's amazing. I couldn't stop eating it and pretty much inhaled the food it's that good. The portions are generous and even with as much as I ate I slowed down and had to bring some home. As for the restaurant itself, at the time we went it's very sensory friendly for autistic people like me. The music is nice and muted. The colors are dark and comfortable. The chairs are comfy. The lighting it dim and warm. No real sounds from the kitchen. Of course we went and were the only people there because we eat early, but it was perfect for me and for us in general. Definitely will be back. So many good things to try!“

“Delicious! Everything was wonderful, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the outside seating was refreshing.The bread and olives before the meal was a nice touch. The plates are large, enough to over fill yourself and still have enough left over.“

“It's a medium size hall with a bar room attached. It has a smoking room for when it's cold. It has a two stall restroom for both men and women. A kitchen they use. The price is reasonable. It is a great spot for parties or celebrations of life.“

“I was there last night with my family I came from Florida a few days ago and went to ct to see my brother that goes there all the time with his wife and I may say it was amazing service and all 🙏🏻😊“

“Red Rock Tavern is the hidden gem of Hartford—warm energy, great people, and a vibe that always hits. If you’re stepping out on a Saturday, the 90s Karaoke Sip & Paint is the move. Nostalgia, creativity, and good music in one room… it’s the perfect way to elevate your weekend.“

“Samantha our bartender was absolutely AMAZING!! She was so attentive and caring, we couldn't have asked for a better server! She really made the experience a 10/10 !! We would come back just to literally have her again!!! 5 stars all day!!!!“

“‼️Really delicious food, I'd call it excellent! If you enjoy sushi, this is the place to go. Sometimes on the weekends the parking lot is packed full, so if you enjoy their food, it may be better to simply call ahead. However, there are a few inaccuracies on their this Facebook website. First their current hours are posted as "always open", of couse this cannot be true in the least bit. Listed on the Mizu 21 Restaurant website as of August 16, 2025 it says: Address: 21 Albany Turnpike (Rt.44) Canton, CT 06019 Tel: 860-352-8533 Business Hours Mon: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Tue: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Wed: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Thurs: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Fri: 1:30 am~10:30 pm Sat: 11:30 am~10:30 pm Sun: 11:30 am~9:30 pm“

“This is my first time at the place, and I'm writing a review five minutes after sitting down to eat my food. First of all, everyone who works here is awesome. Special shout out to chef Foster, I think that's his name. He served up a great meal and entertained with his great personality.“

“Very reasonable price on the food, will definitely return!“

“Food, service, drinks... what's not to love? Everything was fantastic from start to finish. The food was delicious, the drinks were great, and the staff went above and beyond to make the experience enjoyable. The atmosphere was welcoming, and you can tell they truly care about their customers. Easily a 5-star experience, and I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“There is nothing to avoid on this menu!! Every dish served is exquisite! Delightfully crafted, so flavorful and perfectly portioned. Our favorites are Gnocchi Pomodoro and the Seafood Cioppino. Just to die for! Also- take your time and enjoy apps & dessert -nothing short of excellence!“

“Best all you can eat sushi restaurant in the Hartford area. Even the small plates were incredible - we ordered General Tsao’s chicken, miso soup, and lots of sushi. Really excellent service and atmosphere. Everything was delicious, will be coming here often!“

“Rancho Viejo saved my life. Catering order with Chipotle snafu and I was left with no food for my daughter’s graduation. They were the first restaurant I thought to call with a last minute dinner order. They saved the day and the food was delicious (and very plentiful!). Thank you, Rancho Viejo!“

“What a Amazing place to dine.The staff was so attentive. Our food and drinks were absolutely decadent. I will be back.“

“love coming here for dinner and drinks with my friends. came tonight for family dinner and as always everything was amazing. our server Taylor was exceptional and gave great recommendations and helping with substitutions. great service! 10/10 one of our favorite spots in west hartford center“

“We were told the wait would be 30-40mins which was fine. We provided our number for text and waited. At the 45min mark my husband checked for our status and they had texted us 15mins prior... except the number wasn't ours. Not even close. We then waited another 15mins to be seated. He has allergies (just chili peppers) which is a pain for staff so we appreciate them checking everything but food came out bare bones (tots app was literally plain tater tots, for example. To their credit, they took it off the bill. Our waitress's service was terrible. After waiting an hour to sit, it took over an hour to get out. She actually didn't bring us any food. Everyone else and their mother brought food (and drinks on occassion when they thought of us). She walked by several times without asking about top-offs. Food was meh. I think hub's chicken and waffles was for sure better than my Monte madam which was just a mouthful of sloppy salt. The food, which was okay at best was WILDLY over-priced. Still he tipped over 20%. Just because our experience, service, and food sucked doesn't mean we had too... but we will never go back here. SUPER disappointing.“

“Great deal on oysters, it say u typically spend 30-50$ but thats not true for me as everything i get here (oysters, drinks, appetizers) is super well priced compared to max’s oyster bar or somewhere else.

Shoutout to Gopi the man! Real friendly nice bartender that hooks you up.“

“good really good good food“

“This is their best location. Right by the Farmington river. Drinks are avg. food is good. The view is what brings me back. Service is good for the most part. Their apps are probably above avg to similar venues.“
