Plus the puppy picture name wall was adorable and they name meals after them! Our server was nice and the menu had interesting choices, but sadly they sounded better than what they were. - the scramble was not that great...overdone eggs and I'm not a fan of slapping a square piece of cheese on eggs. I think shredded cheddar would have been a better choice and the crumbly-sausage was an odd choice for breakfast sausage - I was excited they had hash browns but they were premade with garlic powder and came out mushy. They left a lingering weird garlic flavor - turkey sandwich had real turkey breast which was great but it was too hot and made the sandwich soggy - burrito was good but the homefries were burnt beyond repair Lots of parking on the side and front area

A Sweet, Iconic Stop: Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream…read more Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream is one of those rare places where the nostalgia hits just as hard as the flavor. It's the kind of shop that feels woven into the fabric of Mystic itself--warm, welcoming, and perched right over the water with a view that makes every scoop taste a little sweeter. Ice Cream That Actually Lives Up to the Hype The ice cream here is rich, creamy, and clearly made with care. Flavors are bold without being artificial, and classics like chocolate, vanilla, and mint chip are elevated by how fresh and balanced they taste. Their specialty flavors--especially anything with fudge, cookie chunks, or local ingredients--are the real standouts. Every scoop feels indulgent in the best way. A Location That Makes the Experience There's something magical about enjoying your cone while watching the drawbridge rise and fall. Whether you're inside by the windows or outside taking in the breeze, the setting adds a charm you just can't replicate. It's a perfect stop during a Mystic stroll, and it's hard not to linger a little longer than planned. Friendly, Patient Service Even when the line stretches out the door (and it often does), the staff stays upbeat and helpful. They're quick with samples, happy to make recommendations, and keep things moving without making anyone feel rushed. It's the kind of service that makes the whole experience feel personal. A Must‑Visit in Mystic Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream earns every bit of its reputation. Great flavors, generous portions, a beautiful waterfront setting, and genuinely kind staff make it a five‑star stop every time. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this is one of those Mystic staples you don't skip. Andddd they are opened year round!!! Cheers

With its Latin American focus, I felt like the Peruvian chicken would be the best bet. Plus it was listed first on the menu (unlike concert setlists the best isn't usually saved for last - what's the deal with The Killers opening with Mr. Brightside? - but I digress). This was superb, partly thanks to the salsa verde, but also due to the excellent basil bread. I also enjoyed the mint lemonade. The local customers, like many Yelpers, raved about the Chinese BBQ sandwich and said I should get it next time. I had a moment of indie-rock snobbery and thought I can get Chinese sandwiches anytime in NYC, but I was curious about the emphatic praise. For a second I pretended I couldn't possibly get a second sandwich. So with some self-delusion combining "I didn't eat breakfast" and "these nice people told me to get another one" I got the BBQ sandwich. It, too, was excellent, with a perfect fusing of ham, bread and sauce.
