Restaurants near Broad Brook

“Hole in the wall but great food usually. Service is a little rough as they appear to be short handed all the time. Reminds me of a NJ hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant- that is meant as a solid compliment! Will continue to order from here.”

“Very very polite and helpful seems no matter whos there working Great chicken stop in and try some

Parking: Plenty of spaces out front and both along the left and right side of building”

“Update: I have been notified that they are bringing the rice and grain bowls back! 👏. I changed it back to ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

D’Angelo’s in Vernon, CT. just made one of the worst menu decisions I’ve ever seen. The Rice & Grain Bowls — the items that actually made you different from every other sandwich shop — are gone. The Southwest and Korean BBQ bowls were incredible, and the matching sandwiches were just as good. Now all of them have been removed. We already have plenty of sub shops. What made D’Angelo’s special was the bowls. Without them, you’re just another sandwich place in a sea of sandwich places.
I used to give you five stars. Now it’s one.
Bring back the Rice & Grain Bowls — this “menu experiment” is a huge mistake.”

“Great customer service, great selection of frozen treats. Friendly and did great with our ice cream social”

“Long Gut Miss Pinny is such a hidden gem in Manchester. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was great, and the service was even better. Everything tasted super fresh and homemade. It’s run by a mother and daughter, and you can really tell how much care goes into the food. The mac and cheese was so good, the Jamaican patties were perfectly flaky, and the pepper shrimp had the perfect amount of spice. The chicken soup with pumpkin was comforting and flavorful, and the oxtail and curry chicken were absolutely delicious. Definitely a spot I’ll be going back to. Highly recommend checking it out.”

“This place is a gem! You don’t need to be vegetarian to LOVE the food here. I am soooo glad I discovered it.”

“The service is incredible, Madison helped me understand all the allergies and recommended some cookies for me to try, while doing all of this it looked like she was alone but didn't rush me and let me take the time I needed. After I ordered and she went to get my cookies it looked like she was doing everything behind the counter at once and it looked fantastic. Will come back again”

“We LOVE Dairy Cream so much 🤍”

“If you haven’t been here GOO!!! Such a fun time for everyone… ages 10+ AND also just found out they have an Axe League on Thusday nights!! Met the owner, which the restaurant inside is named after. (Gaetano) The pizza looked AMAZING! 🍕 I however didn’t get any but had a piece of pepperoni, and it’s deff not the cheap crappy stuff! They are working on perfecting their wings! 😋 Learned some history about how, and why he started the Axe Throwing business….and how he recommends Jimmy's Pub Enfield ( Where I happen to work)to all his customers. 😊 love how he also supports small local businesses as well! He seems like a very nice, humble guy. “ I created round tables so everyone could sit and face each other. Also I don’t want people staring at a television. I like seeing them together and spending time doing things with each other” So much fun!! Especially on Black Light Fridays. Axe Man Dave has been the bestttt!!! Everyone we go! Wednesday is also super sweet and has a great personality and vibe about her!!”

“Just had a great meal, great service, lovely little cafe, fresh cooked meals. Bread, salad and soup was fantastic. Generous servings and deserts. Will be back”

“This coffee shop is so much more than a place to grab a drink. It is like a community living room. Warm, creative, and welcoming in the most genuine way. There are art supplies to sit and create, free books to borrow, and games to play. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, connect, and stay awhile. The cold brew I had today was absolutely amazing…..smooth, rich, and clearly made with care. Even more meaningful was the experience with the owner. Her kindness, authenticity, and passion shine through in every detail of this space. You can feel how much heart has gone into building something that truly serves the community. I’m so grateful to my son and his girlfriend for encouraging us to stop in after a UConn game, what a gift that recommendation was. Places like this are rare, and they matter. If you love small businesses, creativity, connection, and spaces that bring people together, please show up and support this one. Bring a friend. Stay for a while. Make it part of your routine. Convenient to the XL Center, Yard Goats, downtown, and right off the highway. Closed Mondays, open all other days — plan your visit and don’t miss it. Support this local gem. Our community needs places like this. ☕️📚🖌️🥰”

“Katie absolutely changed my life with this Açaí bowl. In the way to Playa I was super anxious about my life and future. Katie was extremely kind and completely turned my day around. What a fantastic human and worker. I’m back on track after this bowl!”

“In town from MD for training- this welcoming place was a great start to my time in CT! Thank you!”

“We visited Mario’s for the first time on Friday Feb 27th after seeing a Facebook ad for their fish and chips dinner. We were beyond surprised and very pleased with the entire experience. The fish and chips was the best we have had, the waitress was very attentive and friendly. Although the place is small it was super busy with lots of take out orders but that didn’t affect the dining room orders coming out in a timely fashion. We most definitely will be visiting again real soon to see what other delicious choices they have on their menu. Great job Mario see you again soon.”

“The food is outstanding. The service is top notch. Overall a great atmosphere. Also I recommend the catering. The portions were fantastic and quality was the best. This is why I keep going back. A great Diner for everyone”

“I’ve been here countless times and the food is consistently very good. The servers are always friendly too. Tonight I sat at the bar after a class and ordered grinders for takeout. Absolutely THE best grinders we’ve had in forever. My veggie and cheese grinder was LOADED with veggies! My husband’s grinder had so much nest he could have created 2 more grinders. Thank you Soula and staff. You are all top notch!”

“- Very calming and professional vibe - Answered all the questions I had with ease. - Dottie is very kind and polite I will definitely recommend this shop to everyone.”

“Everything g is the best at Russo's. we've tried othe Italuan Bakery's and none can compare. From their Cannoli's, Sfogliatella, Italian Cookies, and their frozen dinners are awesome also.”

The eat in diners couldn’t stop praising his dishes. The way he works with his customers is amazing. My hat off to him and his staff. Keep up the good work, Andrew. My family will be back for more. Five Stars”

“Hello All. I was on a mission. My wife had a taste for a pound cake, but not just any pound cake. She wanted a pound cake that tasted like her mom used to make. Well, it took some time to scan the internet and read some of the comments at other bakeries and I found myself very disappointed. As I was about to give up, I found Perfect Poundcakes. I read the comments from their customers and I thought I would give them a try. I placed my order online. When I picked up my poundcake I was greeted by a friendly staff that took extreme pride in their product. When I arrived home, my wife instantly recognized the aroma that brought her back to some wonderful memories of her mom. Going forward Perfect Poundcakes will be a part of our family events. Thank you so much and keep up the great work!”

“The Spot Café truly lives up to its name it hits the spot every time. You can tell there’s real love and care put into the food, from the presentation to the flavor. The cafe is welcoming, making you feel like a regular from the moment you walk in. It may be a small space, but it delivers big on quality and experience. This place is definitely a hidden gem in East Hartford.”

“I had lunch at Vernon Friendly’s The food was good and the waitress was friendly. She did a great job. I did notice that it took some time to get the food. But the service was great and I will definitely be going there to have lunch there again.”
