The Tin Peddler

HOLY SMOKES this place is incredible. The food is so *fresh* and just really, really good. Affordable prices for such elevated food. The flavors were complex, but very satisfying. Honestly the best beet dish and kale dish I’ve ever had. Plus they had Maine lunch ON TAP. Definitely check them out. You’ll be seriously sorry if you don’t. Menu seems to change frequently as it was different online than when I dined. They also have a sister restaurant in Mystic called Barbary Coast. Can’t wait to try it (and to return here!). Great ambiance, very comfortable inside. Fun music playlist and very friendly service. Can’t believe how I stumbled on this place because of the reviews.

… WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?! Go!

Chef-Approved Hidden Gem

As a CIA-trained chef, I appreciate quality—and this place truly delivers. From the outside, it may not catch your eye, but step inside and you’ll find a thoughtfully designed, spacious, and inviting space.

The menu is small and well-curated. Every dish I tried was executed with care, balanced flavors, and clean presentation. The staff was warm and attentive, and the drinks were spot-on. It’s a place that doesn’t try too hard—because it doesn’t have to. A quiet gem done right. Highly recommended.

Awesome experience all around. Such kind and attentive people. The waitress saw my daughter eating a chunk of watermelon from my wife’s drink (we’re good parents!) and went into the back and brought out a plate of sliced watermelon. Also, the food was absolutely delicious. My 9 and 6 year old crushed the pasta on the adult menu and the burger and steak were excellent. I would highly recommend this place.

Perhaps it was just the juxtaposition after eating food from the Great Wolf Lodge for several days, but HOLY COW was our food delicious. Can’t miss place for any families taking the trip out to the new attraction. Probably even worth sneaking away from the Lodge more than once during a long stay!

Fish sandwich, Nashville Chicken, and pancakes were highlights!

All the dishes were cooked textbook. Super Flavorful And fresh. The Nashville, hot chicken sandwich had a solid kick, All the condiments and toppings were fresh and delicious. The cornbread was out of this world. It could be served as a dessert. So incredibly good.

Amazing place went there for our 2 year anniversary was one of the best Nashville hot chicken sandwiches I've ever had the only thing I would say to change is the band playing so close to the tables that's my opinion I definitely recommend this place my wife loved it aswell

Adorable and delicious! We ended up here because we were at the sister restaurant Barbary Coast in Mystic (we only had cocktails but they were amazing and the food looked awesome) and we needed a brunch place and they recommended this. Glad they did! We loved everything about it! Cute bar, great service, awesome food. We would highly recommend it!

Wow! What a find! Been to Tin Peddler before but they’ve really updated and perfected a great dining experience. Marie, our server, was fantastic and very helpful with my Celiac needs. GF bread is thick and tasty and they even toasted it in the oven for safety. I highly recommend!!
