“Small space but it's cozy and great for conversation with loved ones. Beautiful decorations, friendly staff.However, I've lived in CT, RI, and MA and out of all three states (and the many breweries I've tried while residing in each), this brewery has the best stout I've had in over a decade (their other beers are also great but I'm a stout person). I'm very disappointed Man O' War allegedly won't be staying on the menu, but if this is the caliber this brewery can create I'll happily try anything they come up with!“

“What a gem! Really lovely experience and are shocked it wasn’t packed on a Sunday night. It’s a bit of a drive for us, but we will definitely be back.The atmosphere and service gave classy vibes. Tasty cocktails and appetizers. Loved the authenticity of flavors — had our first empanada! We ordered several things off the specials menu, and while my own steak wasn’t a particularly tender cut, there are certainly plenty of options to choose from. Locals are lucky to have this place! Just wish we had saved room for dessert…“

“This place speaks for itself upon walking in. Very friendly, very cozy and very helpful. My sister and I came in today and got two sandwiches each. We both got the bacon egg and cheese (one on multigrain and the other on a bagel). The blue and the East beats west with a soup on the side. We wanted to sample how the food is here. The guy at the counter was very sweet and the food took maybe 15 minutes to come out despite all tables being full. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good time to sit down and have a good meal with someone“

“The owner is an absolute doll! I asked her about her experiences while in Puerto Rico, the meals are most enjoyed, and the culture behind food. My fiancè got the chimi burrito and I got the Super Hot Dog. Both were so yummy!! His burrito was FILLED with beef and my hot dog was covered in delish meaty chili!! We also tried a fried goodie in the display; I wish we could give this place a 10/10. Wanna support authentic Puerto Rican foods at local business?? This is the PLACE! Thank you so much for all the yummy food. We will be back.“

“A nice little coffee house in the middle of downtown! The food is either quite good, or a bit off - I've had mixed results over the years. I recommend the breakfast burrito when they offer it here, though I do not suggest the homefires, they're bland. The coffee is good here.!Service here is good - the atmosphere is fantastic.Parking: Parking is limited - there's a very small lot here. You may have to street park.“

“Found this place by accident while waiting for a train, and what a jewel of a find it is. We got there right after it opened and it was quiet, but quickly a few regulars showed up and the atmosphere couldn't have been better. The bartender was nice, funny, and made us feel as welcome as the regulars at the bar too. The decor and just overall vibe was stellar. I can only imagine how great it would be during peak hours with more people and live music. It is on the smaller side, so I can imagine it gets crowded, but that's half the charm of a hole-in-the-wall spot like this“

They just have a window to order/pickup, with no indoor seating, but there are picnic tables on the side where you can sit. Overall a great ice cream spot!“

It was fresh and seasoned perfectly. The fries were delicious and crisp, the chicken was so tender it melted in your mouth. The service was excellent as well. Moving to Boston soon and we take day trips to places, this is definitely a favorite and we will be back. Delicious!!!!“

Previously, I had a bacon cheeseburger and it was damn well made too. It’s fairly cheap as far as food in Groton goes so I would $100% recommend this place!Parking: Lots of places to park and it has a few spots specifically for Motorcycles in front too!“

They have a soft serve machine that makes 24 ice cream flavors and you can add candy or mixtures in it like a Blizzard.The restaurant was a cute like shanty with outdoor sitting under a canopy. We ordered rhe lobster roll. The lobster roll meat wasn't the best but it's been a long time since my husband had the roll anywhere.It seemed a little chewy but it was my first time having a roll or possibly lobster. Cole slaw was decent. The bread was good. Fries were thinner than string fries but had a crispy taste.Cost wise the ice cream was a superb deal. Great price and a lot of ice cream and candy filling. Can't go wrong here for ice cream.Didn't know how expensive lobster was until this sandwich. The sandwich is priced by market for lobster .“
