Why was this place deserted on a Sunday afternoon? I can't quite figure it out, but it gave me a…read morerare chance to sit and chat with the owner. First off, if anyone remembers the ill-fated Steady Habit Brewing Company in/around Higganum, well, there's no relation. Instead, this is a glorified taproom on the edge of downtown Shelton, near the south-central part of this state we affectionately call The Land of Steady Habits. Minutes from Routes 8 and 34, they serve a wide selection of fine local- and Connecticut-made beers, wines, and spirits, as well as some appetizers and light lunch fare, with a pizza oven waiting to be hooked up as of this writing. I picked a beer from one of my regular Danbury hangouts, Charter Oak Brewing Company. The draft beer tasted just as fresh as if Scott or Michelle had poured it themselves. Steady Habits must keep their beer cold and their tap lines spotless! I don't normally go for a grilled cheese sandwich, but with me not being super-hungry today, I went for it. This seems to be their de facto specialty (for now -- remember, pizza oven being assembled), and I've got to say, it does not disappoint! I ordered it Cuban-style, with ham, pickles, and pepper jack cheese. The ham was missing and the pickles were on the side, but the sandwich quickly went back and returned with the forgotten meat browned and inserted (and comped!) with an honest apology, then I added as many pickles as I wanted and gave the rest to my girlfriend, which she appreciated. I've got to say, that was one of the best grilled cheeses I've had in quite some time! The chips were a nice accompaniment, as fries and beer are a recipe for feeling bloated. There are no paper menus, only QR codes, so don't leave your phone in the car! (Hopefully they have free Wi-Fi for the LTE-challenged. I forget.) On the bright side, their web menu tells you instantly what's on tap and what's kicked! Well-played! The bar service is almost instantaneous when you're the only patrons; not sure how it is when they're packed to their sizable capacity. We were looking for a meal and a beer, so we didn't partake in watching the football game, sitting around a big table with friends, or trying out the arcade games. There aren't any breweries in Shelton, and while Bad Sons in Derby is awesome but seems to be constantly packed, Steady Habits will surely become one of my steady habits whenever my travels take me this way.

Cute little spot to try local drinks. Parking can be a bit tough as they don't have their own lot…read more Menu is pretty limited food wise but they do have a few meals. We snacked on the pretzel bites which tasted like they were microwaved and doused with butter. The server was friendly and checked in often The drink menu is extensive but pretty light on bourbon or whiskey options It's more a wine beer vodka place The flight pours were a good Amt Love music was a nice touch The concrete floors were a bit stained and the bar was sticky The popular popcorn was unavailable for us to try They do take credit card

By FAR the TOP wing place in CT!…read more There are 115 flavors of wings that come out CRISPY and flavorful!! From your traditional wings to your more unique, not so basic, out of this world flavors including dessert wings! Yes s'mores and chocolate included! Jaesah was our server and she was very friendly. We have only been here once before and always stick to the basic norm, but we wanted to try something different. She gave many different unique flavors that were her favorite! To start we got a southern tier pumpqueen cider with a sugared rim and a ciderboys pressed cider. Both drinks were very good for this festive season For the wings, we chose the maple butter bacon, and the Cajun butter garlic bacon with a side of curly fries. We also got the mango pineapple habanero wings to go The maple butter bacon was so good! A nice twist for the sweet and salty flavors! The Cajun garlic butter bacon was a tad bit salty, and definitely packed with garlic and salty bacon flavor. This was very good but a tad bit salty. The mango pineapple habanero wings we got to go but I had to try one! They were delicious. A nice pair to the sweet and spicy kick it had I have not ventured in the dessert section so I can't comment on that but all of their wings I have had are very good and flavorful! They have an extensive menu, but I always come for the wings!!

I have never been to an establishment that refuses to allow anyone under 21 inside to simply eat,…read moreespecially at 3 pm on a Sunday. This is not a club on a Friday night. We were turned away because my cousin is 20. If we were able to provide proof of guardianship, we would have been allowed in. Who walks into a restaurant with legal papers showing you are the guardian?? When we asked the waitress why we couldn't just eat, she was very dismissive, rude and did not explain why this is their rule, she simply stated "its a cafe liquor license". My husband and I have been here over a dozen times and have only been carded half of the time, and we've ordered alcohol everytime. Riddle me that. There has never been any expectation to be 21 to just walk in. All of a sudden we can't let a 20 year old just get lunch with a water? I'm sure they got themselves into an underage drinking disaster but that shouldn't affect everyone else. I understand the rules are written on the website, but we've never had an issue previously so why would I think to check if I needed to bring guardianship paperwork with me? The entire experience was bizarre and unappreciated. We will not be back ever.

Also ordered the beef sliders on brioche buns. They were tasy as well! We also got the pork belly - tostones, red onion, tomato, cilantro, and lime juice .

I knew from Kindred Spirits that 90+ was a nice wine to drink and cook. I was also looking for a red. I've been losing my taste for red wines. I've always bought Woodbridge, Mondavi and Josh. K.S. recommended Trecciaia Toscana. It's from Italy. Very nice wine. Not fruity or red blend. It's a nice pairing with cheese and steak dinner. I do a lot of cooking and baking. K.S. has helped me come up with different desserts just by suggesting a liquor. I highly recommend K.S. for all entertaining needs
