Amazing pizza, the best beer, and they have incredible wine as well. I'm always taken care of by the awesome, knowledgeable staff here. Easily the best brewery/pizza in the area.

The beer is delicious and the food is worth a trip by itself. We had a large group and got a bunch of different pizzas. They were all home runs. Same goes for the wings. Been dreaming of the pizza since I left!

This is easily the best pizza and bar in town. The pizza is an absolute standout--crispy thin crust and consistently delicious. The beer selection is solid and the staff is always so friendly. We are so happy they do trivia now on Tuesday nights!Definitely worth adding New Park to a must visit.

Packed house when I visited on a late afternoon on a rainy Sat. Very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Delicious food and beer. What more do you need?

TLDR; great pizzas and great drinks at the casual brewpub space.Tasty pies - The pizzas had a welcome artisanal edge that we all really liked and you can tell the ingredients are high quality. Long waits - I'm not sure why but it took almost 45 minutes to get our 2 pizzas. I would chalk it up to a fluke but seemed like there was just 1 man in the back making everything for about 10 tables so hopefully it's not like that all the time. Once we got our food though we couldn't have been happier.Great brewpub drinks - We enjoyed a few rounds waiting for our pies and they flew by since we had tasty beers from the brewery keeping us entertained. They also have brewpub table games you can borrow.

Definitely worth a visit if in the Haven area. The tasting room and outside seating are large and they do offer food which is helpful if you wish to stay awhile. The tasting menu rotates with their current offerings. They have a great variety of IPAs (hazy and west coast) and also several sours. Only sad issue is they don't offer single cans or mixed 4 packs. Makes it difficult for visitors to try several especially for those not currently on draft. The beertenders correctly directed me to nearby Harvest Wine and spirits that carries singles of several of their offerings.

Kind of rude. We have been there manytimes. Went there to see a band. Ordered pizza, asked for a box. Half hour later. A waitress comes over puts our leftover pizza on top of someone else's and walks away before we could say anything. She was in a hurry as the band stopped at 9 and they close at 9. Why have the band stop at 9 if you are closing at 9. Just rushing people out.

This is a welcoming and comfortable brewery with enough of a variety to satisfy everyone. Pours are generally 8 and 12 oz., and flights are available. The decor is fun. I had to have the Ferrous Sumatra if only for the name but also for the great taste. We had meal plans elsewhere, otherwise I would have definitely ordered pizza. The pies looked and smelled wonderful. They can accommodate good-sized groups here, and this would definitely be a place I would want to bring a group for food and drink.

One of the top notch breweries in Connecticut. Good ratings on Untappd. Definitely recommended.

Came here for an afterwork beer with a coworker. Both only ended up getting one because the bees outside wouldn't go away. Moreover, place is a little pricey and location isn't the greatest. Overall, beer was decent but wish it wasn't so expensive.
Hands down best pizza I've had in CT. New Park has really outdone themselves - it's not just pizza in a brewery like I've seen some breweries try to do - these pies will blow your mind. They have this big brick oven & lots of other stuff on the menu too. Staff is so nice, and everything came out pretty quickly. Really excited to have something like this in town.

I was in the area so I decided to stop by based on a recommendation. Like always , I start with a flight however, they didn't have flights here but the staff(Hannah and Lidnsey) was more than accommodating making sure I was able to sample every beer. This was my first time trying a Bacon and Brussels Pizza, it was really good paired with their English Porter called Chap. With the first bite of pizza you get back on, mozzarella, Bacon and sauteed onions. Finish that off with a sip of Chap, and you get a hint of roast from the Brussel sprouts and smoke with a salty sweetness from the bacon and a semi sweet chocolate on the finish. Every beer I tried was spot on. My favorite pairing beer was the English Porter. Little Cloud was a soft Hazy almost feeling like your palate is in a cloud of sweet fluffy oranges. The Winner is Double Wavelength which was a DIPA that came in at 8.5%. It leaves your palate feeling juicy with a very settle lemongrass green onion bite but nothing overwhelming.

Yet another amazing CT brewery! My husband and I came here for a quick beer before dinner in the center. We found a table near the bar and the friendly bartenders helped us pick beers (both sours) and had us served within minutes. The sour beers were tasty- tart and fruity. Once we sat down I was slightly disappointed we couldn't eat here, as the pizzas everyone around us was eating looked ah-mazing! Guess we will have to come back again for the food. Cute decor and the patio outside looks awesome for when the weather warms up.

I've been a customer of New Park from their beginning and have always loved their operation. Their beers are fantastic (especially the hoppy offerings), their space is great and the service terrific as well. I tried their food for the first time in August and loved it too. The pizzas, wines and apps were all fantastic. My experience this past Sunday however was vastly different. We got three pizzas for takeout and they were absolutely terrible. The crust was hard as a rock. Half the the pie had a crust that was blonde and the other half burnt. I know when I pie is beautifully charred/leopard spotted vs. burnt. These were (half) burnt. Also, we had to wait 20 minutes past the estimated wait time for the third pie, and by the time we got them home, two were cold. The Caesar salad was also very dry because it only came with one dressing. If the order was relatively inexpensive, I wouldn't be too upset, but for $88, I feel like I was taken for a ride. I reached out to New Park via Instagram (they have no email address posted to their website) about my experience and got no reply. I didn't expected a full refund or anything, but an apology and/or an offer for a complimentary pie would have been nice. Needless to say, I won't be going back again for their food and I recommend others do likewise.

New Park is one of the two breweries in West Hartford. I've been going here for several years. There are times when it's so packed there's nowhere to sit, they currently don't offer bar seating. During the warm months the outside seating is really nice, with a food truck, and string lights for a relaxing ambiance. This is a pretty little brewery, yet they still have live music a few times a month. It can be difficult to talk during the music. The artwork and their decorative skateboards are a nice touch. Every time I go to New Park I always get their blender beer. There was a period of time when I believed they're the only ones who brewed this type of beer. Their current one is called Blender Festivus. And this is just what I like. It's got all types of delicious, juicy berries, it's so flavorful, 5.0 % proof, and so easy to drink. I wouldn't call this a sour, but it has a crispness and a creaminess to it! I love it! This brewery is a bit more expensive, and unfortunately they don't offer flights. It's still worth going here, and experiencing their craft.
