“5 Stars – A Hidden Gem with Amazing Vibes and Even Better Bartenders!

The Trophy Room in Storrs, CT is hands down one of my favorite spots in town. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day or kick off a night out with friends, this place never misses. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between cozy and lively, and the drink selection is always on point.

What really sets Trophy Room apart, though, are the bartenders—especially Olivia and Allison. These two are absolute stars behind the bar. They’re not only incredibly skilled at crafting top-notch cocktails, but they also bring such good energy to the place. Friendly, attentive, and always down for a quick chat or a solid recommendation, they make you feel right at home every time.

Olivia and Allison elevate the whole experience, and honestly, they’re a big reason I keep coming back. If you haven’t checked out Trophy Room yet, do yourself a favor and stop by—just be ready to make it your new go-to spot!“

“Let me start by saying we live in Coventry and Kathmandu has delivered hot delicious food to our home time and time again! This evening my wife and I decided to dine in and the experience was better than expected! We had Samosas, Thai noodles, Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Tikka Masala, and Naan. The service was friendly and attentive. The owner/chef came out to our table to ask how everything was. What I told him is what I'm telling all of you. This is the best Indian food I've had to date! I have a strong culinary background and highly recommend you put this place on a short list of great food destinations! In the past we've had curry lamb, tomato soup, tom yam soup, lolipop chicken, fried rice, and aloo paratha. Make your way through the whole menu, you won't be disappointed!“

“Hands down one of the best college bars around! The energy here is exactly what you want on a night out at UConn. Great music, packed dance floor, and a fun crowd every time. The drinks are affordable (huge plus for college students), and the bartenders are quick and friendly even when it’s busy.

Perfect spot to go with friends after a long week of classes. Whether you’re there to dance, hang out, or just enjoy the vibe, this place never disappoints. Definitely a go-to bar if you’re in the UConn area!“

“I moved from the Danbury area to the UConn area a few months ago. As you can imagine, I was raised on New York and New Haven style pizza. Almost every single pizza place I have tried here is absolutely abysmal, it's like they forgot how to make it on this corner of the state. Not Square Peg though. Best pizza I've had in months. Keep it up“

Legends Tavern Bar • $
125 Main St, Willimantic - 6.95 miles

“My wife and I enjoy going to Legends Tavern during the week nights to play darts and have a few seltzers since October of 2022. The owner Jay is a great guy who we enjoy talking to as well as the other folks who work there.

The tavern is kept clean especially the bathrooms (huge plus in my book). The food offerings are amazing at a great price too. It's great to see that it has a lot of different games stocked.

Overall just a fun little watering hole that people should not sleep on.“

Dragonfire Meadery Bar • $$
580 Main St, Coventry - 3.59 miles

“Discovered this business and their product at the Renaissance Fair in Lebanon, CT. Did some Christmas shopping there for my kids and they all love the Mead! So many great flavor options there is something for all tastes. Their location is only 20 minutes from where I leave and I’ve already been there a couple times to re-stock. I’m quite sure more trips to the Meadery are in my future. Friendly service and a great product!“

“My daughter and I stopped here on our way back from a UConn tour - I’m vegetarian and the Mediterranean pasta was one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had - highly recommend!!! My daughter ordered chicken and a side of fries, the fry order was huge for $5! I helped her eat the fries and we both couldn’t put a dent in it! Friendly staff, beautiful sunset view - if we are ever back in the area we will definitely stop back in!“
