“This place is great, i love their ice cream but the real reason i go is for their Spicy Countryside Crisp sandwich. The food here is really good, i also recommend the ham and cheese toastie, the honey mustard on it goes hard. There's also some nice outdoor seating and a fridge with local/indie drinks for sale, as well as Farmers Cow milk and eggs. Solid joint!“

“Was Working in town and decided to stop by as I’ve heard great things about UConn Diary Bar. There were commencements going on so lines were a little long but worth the wait. I got a medium 3 scoop black raspberry which was fresh and delicious. Definitely would go back again.“

“Need a late night snack? Got the munchies? Need that perfect milk compliment? Insomnia has you covered!!!!! The best most delicious warm ooey gooey goodness! Huge variety of flavors for all tastebuds. You can never go wrong with Insomnia.

Dietary restrictions: They have some cookies with nuts but not all and I believe they have gluten free options as well

Parking: Only street parking close to the store front. Further away there are parking lots i believe. But there are tons of sidewalks since it’s in a college campus. And there’s usually closer street parking available quickly since people don’t typically dine in.

Kid-friendliness: It’s cookies! How could you go wrong!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to the door“

“Hands down my favorite fast-casual chain. If you haven't tried Mooyah, you're missing out. A fairly simple menu done correctly, with fresh beef and buns made in house. The fries are fresh cut, and the milkshakes are real milk.

I like the fact that the burgers aren't overly huge, and if you're looking for more you just add more patties. I also like the fact that they are preparing it in front of you, so you can actually see your orders progress in the line.

Recently I found the house chips to be overdone on a couple visits. I reached out to the managment and low and behold, the chips have improved - I appreciate that. It does get a little busy sometimes being near UCONN, and so there are certain times I avoid this location - but that's not the restaurant's fault. Parking can also be tricky if the spots up front are taken, you do sometimes have to park a ways up in the lot and walk down.

While there are less expensive places to eat, I think Mooyah's offers value compared to other similar chains (the one with a bunch of guys in particular) when it comes to the freshness and overall quality. Online orders are always ready when stated, another thing they are getting right here.

One thing they could improve on IMO would be the use of beef tallow in the fryer; the JFC around the corner does use it I'm told.“
