Great little Neighbourhood bar tucked out of the way at the old Colt Manufacturing Factory. Good selections of beers and other drinks. Food was fresh and tasty but slightly limited menu. Excellent friendly service.
Love it here! Amanda behind the bar is 10 stars!
Irish Red.. Best beer in house..
Really nice people. Great staple beers and rotating events
Wow. This place was awesome! My girlfriend and I stopped here before the Blink 182 concert and it was awesome. Beer and Cocktails were excellent food was effing delicious and the service was great! Definitely our go to spot when in Hartford.
Awesome brewery! Friendly staff and great beers/food.
*Keep reading for the staff issue...*Great beer and great food! We always enjoy our visits here. Each staff member (we were remiss and didn't get their names, but there was a young caucasian woman with fun blue hair, and a young Asian male) was chill, kind and helpful, and very knowledgeable of the food and beer menus...*with the exception of the GM Amanda. She arrived approximately 45 minutes into our 1.5 hour visit, and she stood at the far left end of the bar talking EXTREMELY loudly to the one customer seated at the bar. Every 2-3 sentences that she spoke was followed by an obnoxiously LOUD, cackling laugh. We weren't the only customers who turned to look at her, but she was completely unaware of anyone other than herself and the man she was talking to.Her laugh was so loud, it reverberated throughout the entire space. She had zero regard for nor awareness of the customers there trying to to enjoy a night out in a comfortable setting. If she worked in a loud bar or restaurant atmosphere, sure, talk and laugh as loud as you want, but here, read the crowd and have some awareness of what your paying customers are trying to enjoy. She also did not assist her busy staff in any way. She literally stood there and loudly talked and cackled.We left earlier than we had planned to, because we could no longer tolerate the overwhelming volume of Amanda's obnoxious laugh and incessant chatter. It just wasn't an enjoyable environment, at all.C'mon, Amanda. You're the GM? Please try to do better.
Excellent service, great beer and cider and food.
The salmon sliders were wonderful. Overall it was a nice experience
Great beer and wings. Server withe long, dark hair is a doll. Breathless.

Cool place, at an pretty old historic location. The Colt Armory. Check it out. They had beer aplenty and the IPAs were on point.
Grew to place to have a few drinks and relax
There are a lot of great options, but Goat-ade is hands down the best thing on tap. Highly recommend checking it out. Also, don't forget about the food options; sliders, nachos, pretzel balls are all solid choices.
Loved the sliders and the beer. Definitely would recommend. The bar was once the backstop at the testing range in the Colt factory, and there are bullets still imbedded in the wood. Coolest bar on the planet.
Great beers, great service, delicious food and fun-friendly crowd. We made a pit stop here off of 84. Glad we did!!
