Like others mentioned, the service was a little slow but they were friendly and professional. We also received a 10% discount for wearing green so that was really nice.

Great crisp and flavor. I liked it over the tamales which was also a popular pick amongst others. Service was friendly and the quick.

Went for dinner and the food was OK. I had a new Citizen Cider I've never had before (Strawberry…read morecrush) and it was good. Sweet, but good. Had a wedge salad, Ruben, and Rachel sandwiches. If I knew the rye bread was going to be buttered, I would have asked them to leave that off (it was probably buttered and then placed on the grill). However, the service was the excellent part of the meal. The waitress was really good. She's the one who recommended the cider to me. She offered a sample taste first, but I just went with a full glass. The server who brought the salad asked if we needed anything else when he brought it. While eating the salad, the waitress checked on in us to see if we needed anything. Our sandwiches came and were correct. Again, the server asked if we needed anything else. Waitress checked in and asked if I needed another drink. So many servers do the minimum, but want a maximum tip. This was the opposite. Thanks to a great waitress and other staff at McGillicuddy's in Waterbury.

They said it depends on the song. I asked to be seated in the main room and the hostess told us that when something opens up she's would let us know so we could move but she never returned. When we left there were plenty of seats available in the front. We certainly would have stayed and had more drinks after our meal to enjoy the music. On to the food. We basically all ordered the same thing in a different form! Haha! It was the Vermonter where you got your main dish with sautéed apples and maple bacon jam. We got the Mac and cheese, the wrap, and a burger on a gluten free bun. We were impressed with their gluten free options and the bun was so good, my daughter was nervous it was not gluten free! It was! And she felt great afterwards. All the food was good, the drinks we had were good, and the service was good. The place was cute and looked like a lot of fun if you were in the front room!

It was difficult to get sides of sauce, water refills, or even the check in a timely manner. I ordered the Bookmaker Steak Sandwich with onion rings. While the sandwich was generously filled with meat, it didn't quite deliver on flavor. On the other hand, the onion rings were a highlight- crispy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The batter held up beautifully, with each bite cleanly separating from the onion without any pull-apart mess. Overall, I'd be open to giving this place another try, perhaps with a different entrée, as I believe there's potential here, and those onion rings are definitely worth returning for.
