Matt runs a GREAT establishment. Bella and Jill took great care of my drinking needs and the food is fresh and the wait time is short. I was passing thru from North Carolina but it felt like home to me!! I will be back!!

Absolutely horrendous service, not sure when it went downhill, but it went straight off a cliff. Loud assholes talking over the entire establishment are a plus as well.

Another great meal on the deck at Thirsty Mule. We had the veggie flatbread pizza with garlic parmesean sauce and it was delicious. Server was friendly as always.

Homey atmosphere; great drinks; fresh, delicious food and sublime deserts. Best pub I’ve found since moving to Fairfield. Atmosphere feels like an invitation to a friend’s house for dinner. 5stars.

This has quickly become my favorite place. The food is outstanding. They make their own hamburger buns and deserts. Everything is fresh and absolutely delightful. The girls are amazing, friendly with awesome personalities and great service. They make you feel right at home. I can't compliment this wonderful establishment and the awesome people that work here enough.

This place knows how to cook fries and season a burger. Cheese fries with bacon was amazing, the Black and Blue burger was outstanding, well seasoned nice grill on it with mushrooms and onions. Well done. Jill was very helpful and the only server and was on her game. Will come back again.

Ignore bad reviews and give this place the chance it deserves. Totally unassuming bar but worth the stop. Easy access off the highway for lunch. Baked chicken wings were fantastic (all homemade sauces and dips) and great drinks. Bartender was fantastic and friendly, and the locals made me wish I lived closer.

I was excited to try the wings, but I was disappointed. Pricing, parking hassle, charges for every little extra (even a credit card fee!), a drafty dining room, and barflies all made the Thirsty Mule a disappointing experience. I will say that the buffalo sauce had extra kick, but the $2 per wing section price definitely wasn't balanced or justified by quality, presentation, service, or atmosphere.Yes, you read that correctly! Five average sized wing SECTIONS, not whole wings, were $10.99. Ten wing sections were $18.99, plus I was charged for ordering two different flavors on one plate, for an extra cup of dip, charged a digital payment fee, and if I wanted all flats i would have been charged an additional $2. Side note: you will not be brought or offered an extra plate for your bones.

Parking: There is not enough parking available. Most spaces are downhill behind the bar, and there is a long flight of stairs for the back door. As I walked to the front (because there was snow on the stairs) I pondered how many drunks have tumbled down them and how high their insurance is.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a little ramp at the front, but the few parking spaces nearby are cramped and usually full. I don't recommend this place for anyone with a chair.
