50 Best Bars near Seymour

“I was recently there for dinner with my wife . Food was good , service was excellent and the entire staff could not have been more accommodating and we interacted with a number of them . Nice decor and spoke about coming back in summer months as the venue would be great . Unfortunately we will never go back . When I got the bill I saw that they charged me 75 cents for mustard that I requested for my deluxe burger , I was infuriated . The catsup was free but was blown away by a charge for mustard. Did not complain or even mention it . It was minor on a $60 bill plus a 25% tip . But the fact that someone would nickel and dime you like that said I will take my business elsewhere . Can you imagine doing that?“

“Bolands is sort of like the Mos Eisley cantina from star wars, and I mean that in the most endearing way. If you like getting drunk and playing pool with some of the craziest, kookiest, and disagreeable characters you'll ever meet, this is your place. Everyone should try it at least once.“

“My favorite summertime go to place for amazing lobster rolls! Love everything about Dock 34.“

“My wife and I are regulars at Hot Tamale. We eat there twice a month. The service is always reliable and fast, whether we eat there or order takeout. The prices are good and the servings generous. The atmosphere is welcoming.“

“Amazing local restaurant, eat here at least once a week, sometimes 2 or 3 times. My go to is the harvest Salad with the house balsamic vinaigrette (wow, it’s awesome), the Chicken Club is also really good. Great place to go and grab a beer as they have a great selection, and watch a game. Staff and ownership are amazing.“

“Can get a little busy but I have a recommended I’ve attended there several times they have good music most of the time“

“Great Chill Place To Hang Out Or Throw Darts. The Workers Bobbi And Emily Are Amazing! Every Time I Go There They Give Me Great Service.

“Nicole was amazing !!! She was Great … very attentive and got every order correct. Thank you Nicole from Hook and Hook & Reel Cajun Seafood & Bar“

“I stopped in on a Wednesday night (during Yale commencement) and it was packed. The bartender, Michael, was alone. On a normal night handling a bar alone is already impressive, but with how packed it was, he was straight up masterful. I was incredibly impressed with how calmly and professionally he handled himself. Even with it being as hectic as it was, he was still very kind, patient and charismatic. Truly extraordinary.“

“We happened to stumble into Elm Diner by chance, and what a find it turned out to be. The moment we walked in, the bright, welcoming atmosphere and spotless space immediately stood out. Then came Nicole, our waitress, greeting us with a genuine smile that made us feel like we’d been coming there for years.

The menu is impressively extensive, offering something for everyone. When our salad arrived, it was fresh, crisp, and generous just like the rest of the meal. Our dishes were flavorful and satisfying.

Nicole was exceptional, and the entire staff added to the experience with their friendliness and energy. There’s a real sense of camaraderie here that you don’t find everywhere.

If you’re anything like me, this place will set the bar for every diner you visit afterward. Every once in a while, you come across a restaurant that truly has it all, and Elm Diner is that rare gem.

Do yourself a favor and go experience it.
Thank you, Nicole. We won’t forget you.“

“Best bar in West Haven. I mean if you are going to dance and pay for overpriced shots then no. This is not your place. If you are looking for a bar where everyone knows your name and the beer is always cold and served right then this is your place.“

“This place is amazing! I’ve had such a great experience every time I’ve been here. The atmosphere is always fun, welcoming, and full of energy. The staff is incredibly friendly and works hard to make sure everyone has a great time. You can tell they truly care about their customers.

I know some people compare it to the newer, more expensive clubs, but not everyone is looking for a super fancy or high-end place. Sometimes all you want is great music, a fun crowd, good drinks, and a place where you can actually enjoy yourself—and this club has all of that.

One thing I especially love is how much room there is to dance. It’s a nightclub, after all! The lighting and party atmosphere make the whole experience even more exciting, and the music always keeps the energy up. The drinks are great, and the bartenders are always friendly and quick.

This club has been around for many years, and I think that says a lot. Businesses don’t stay open for decades unless they’re doing something right and have loyal customers who keep coming back. It’s great to see that they’re continuing to improve the place while still keeping the fun atmosphere that so many people enjoy.

If you’re looking for a fun night out with good music, great drinks, friendly people, and a welcoming environment, I definitely recommend checking this place out. I always have an amazing time here and can’t wait to come back!“

“We had the most wonderful experience at Caloroso Eatery & Bar. Unbeknownst to me, my family planned a surprise birthday party and had it at Caloroso’s in early December. Because the weather was still good, the party took place in the Sky Terrace…the space was very inviting and large enough to accommodate the 33 of us! Ashley and others of the Caloroso team made sure that no one went thirsty or hungry! The buffet of chicken parm, chicken marsala, pasta, salad, and more was totally delicious and plentiful! The large screen in the room made it possible for all to see the birthday trivia game through which I relived lots of happy memories and milestones! I had no idea what was waiting for me when I walked up the stairs and went through the doors into the Sky Terrace…and I’ll never forget the SURPRISE experience! Thank you, family, and thank you Caloroso team for helping to make the day a cherished lifelong memory!!“

“great food good prices great people awesome times.“

“Excellent food! Excellent service!“

“Always a great experience.“

“First time in last night and couldn’t have had a better experience. Greeted immediately by Jayson and his wife Ara. Had a Korean bowl which was awesome after a long day of work travel. The Rasson tables had brand new cloth and played excellent and demands precision. Staff was friendly and service was excellent. Couldn’t recommend more and as a fairly decent player, nowhere I would rather stop in. In fact I’d drive hours to play there any day. Not to mention getting to meet one of the best ever to play.“

“Quite good food and service. Very well executed on basic fare that left me delightfully surprised. The atmosphere lacks polish but is clean and friendly. It’s a place that stands on food and reputation, so if you want a reliable bite and a beer, I would recommend.“

“🥦 Rabe & sausage..THE BEST ❤️“

“Hands down, some of the BEST pizza I’ve ever had! We ordered 2 pies (Cheese and The Max), and between the 4 of us, DESTROYED every slice! Joe has a talent that can’t be taught - you either have it, or you don’t. JOE has IT - and his Pizza Pies are his Masterpieces!“

Highly recommend for a casual night out for food and drinks!“
