40 Best Cocktail Bars near Wethersfield

“I had gone here several years ago and was very disappointed. A friend convinced me to give them another try, so I did! My breakfast sandwich was delicious. I also picked up a chicken salad sandwich for lunch that tasted very fresh. I'm happy to add them to my food choices in town.“

“Professional, prompt, great personalities.“

“We went to Wethersfield location for my Grandson's Birthday. I loved the sauce. Although they stated it had minimal cheese, I would have liked just a little bit more. I would definitely go back and recommend it. I like the way it was served and the way it was sliced. I liked the big, clean open space.“

“I came here with a friend and we got burgers. My burger and mac and cheese were excellent. It’s the right type of cheesy. Definitely my new go-to place!“

“I used to love coming here pre pandemic! I brought my friend with me from out of town and we were having a GREAT night with the bartender Dustin (who literally was excellent), and at the end of the night it was just my friend, the owner, and I. The conversation was calm and civil and fun and suddenly out of NOWHERE the owner proceeded to verbally assault us, calling us expletives and making us feel unsafe and unwelcome. We decided it was no longer for us and stepped outside, at which point he FOLLOWED US OUTSIDE and alternated between apologizing and cursing at us and begging us to come back inside until we left. I’m glad we didn’t go back inside as his behavior was erratic and potentially dangerous, considering we were two women and he is a much larger man. We were afraid and felt safer walking home (in Hartford that says something) rather than staying put. I’m bummed because I used to like this place, but it’s come to my attention we are certainly not the only women with this experience. Please be careful y’all.“

“We went here for my girlfriend birthday last night at 7PM and the food and service was great, but they did not promise to put a candle on her dessert.

When I made the reservation, I specifically said that the occasion was for her birthday and I also called a couple hours earlier on our reservation day to make a note to the server, but they failed to do so. I shouldn’t have to ask again when we were dining.

EDIT: The general manager sincerely apologized about our experience.“

“Great Atmosphere, wine selection! Fantastic food !!“

“Amazing ambiance, incredible food, and friendly service. The bartenders make delicious drinks and the small plates are unique and phenomenal. One of my favorite restaurants.“

“Outdoor street parking lines both sides of the road leading up to this quaint restaurant. Online reservations are available and very easy to use.

My husband and I opted to come out at 4pm on a Saturday to have some apps and share an entree . While there is plenty of seating, it’s a little on the smaller but intimate side. I can see kids coming in but the vibe and environment says date night or friends gathering would be more appropriate.

The staff was friendly, welcoming and attentive. I was very impressed that our server recognized we were sharing an entree without us saying anything. We ordered a burger that came cut in half and served on two plates which made it simple for my husband and I to tuck right in. I do wish they offered a burger option that had lettuce and tomato, but their house burger is tasty as is.

I would also love to see a few more non meat options, but over all the smaller menu is solid and pricing is mostly sensible though slightly on the higher side. 2 apps, 1 entree, 1 glass of wine and a cocktail came to $80.

I would go back here for date night“

“The Elbow Room is an awesome venue, the food and drinks they have are great and reasonably priced, I'm a big fan of their wings and tacos. I go to the open mic comedy nights on Thursdays, and I throw fun comedy shows/parties in the basement around once a month on Fridays with about 50 people, and everyone always hangs out on the rooftop after now that the weather is warmer. The Elbow Room is a staple of West Hartford and almost everyone knows about it.“

“Upon arriving we asked if they had gluten free items on their menu. They Had. It was a separate menu but it was identical to the original with modifications for gluten free on ALL items they served. Our meal was terrific. Our server Jenny was outstanding, attentive and very personable. The managers took special attention in bringing out my meals themselves. We really appreciated the effort and experience we had at this restaurant. Highly Recomended. Brian G“
