If you like overpriced drinks, loud music, getting bumped into, and overly aggressive 'bouncers' then this is the perfect place for you! If you want a tall drink and respectable crowd, go to Porkeys or The Pub. Both have great food and friendly bartenders read more

Nightlife is for kids who don't require fresh food! Wings and fries were old and served lukewarm. Bartenders pouring drinks for themselves, down each other's mouth straight from the spout and for their friends that pull up. People from the street waking into the kitchen. I was in shock...so I peeked in the kitchen. Young kid on his phone watching food on a warmer. The "bartenders" don't know how to mix a drink other than a margarita and that drink had too much purée. They make up prices as they go. Margarita was $10 for someone else than $13 for me. I got a receipt for that NASTY food with no price breakdown. I'll pass on this spot. If I could give negative stars I would. The food looks nothing like the website. read more

I went for Sunday brunch with friends. Service was just ok. It's a bar trying to make breakfast once a week Drinks - great selection of spirits,awesome bloody Mary's and adult lemonades. Waffles w/bananas foster- alcohol was not completely cooked out and I can taste it. Home fries- yuk, I think they were frozen. Coffee was cold and really wouldn't be any good even if hot. The place is cozy inside and I will go back for drinks and maybe try lunch items but will not be back for breakfast. read more

I don't frequent Shelton. However, this is a cool place for happy hour. Parking is a real pain, as there is no lot available. I just parked in the Wells Fargo around the corner and hoped for the best. Turned out okay that time. I think if you drive around enough, you'll see something available. We ordered at the bar and then got a table to order food and more drinks. Our server was friendly. My margarita was decent and the nachos we shared were delicious. I'd come again. The location is convenient to route 8 and not far from the Merritt which is nice. read more

I went here for brunch with friends and it was awesome! Great ambience and outdoor seating with a cute bar. I had the banana foster Belgium waffles and they were to die for. The homefries are great as well. They also offer bottomless mimosas for $15. I ordered a peach Bellini and it was amazing. Tips: it opens at 1030 and gets packed quickly! They also don't serve liquor until 11am. read more

I went for happy hour yesterday and had a good time. The inside atmosphere was nice. Clean and good age range of customers. Apparently if you go on weekends it gets very crowded. They have good specials like "$11 for burger and brew" for lunch and brunch specials with bottomless drinks for $15. Staff weren't very professional. They were perfectly nice but no one had any idea what recommendations to make and were unfamiliar with menu items. Standing around in one group watching the game. I ordered drinks that were very good and two entrees that I split with a friend. Both were awesome. I ordered the chicken quesadilla and the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls. I totally recommend. The best part is the outside atmosphere. Heat lamps and jenga make staying outside all night comfortable and fun. Turn off ; lack of parking. read more

Came in at 1:30 on a Saturday afternoon to grab some lunch and a cocktail. Sat at the bar and overheard a disgruntled customer complaining about his undercooked burger. The bartender was attentive and friendly and prices are reasonable (for drinks). Asked for menu, but was disappointed to see mainly brunch items. Unless you want a salad, brunch was your choice. As a vegetarian, I wasn't left with many options. Needles to say, we did not eat here. It is a beautiful spring day so we carried out drinks to the outdoor patio. Ambience is amazing but there seems to be a disconnect in service. Lots of employees but slow service. For such a cute establishment, I surely hope they pull it together and make it work. read more

We always have such a great time here! the music and ambiance was great! Service is spectacular and the best brunch spot in Shelton! will come again! read more

This place needs to get their shit together! Our table of 5 ordered all at the same time. One persons food never came. When we brought it to the waitresses attention it came out another 20 mins later. This is not the first time we've been here where they messed up orders or forgot things we've asked for, things as simple as water. Only here for the bottomless mimosas!!! In addition as we sit here and finally eat. A patron spilled their drink on their friend. The bus boy book the broken glass away and the hostess brought napkins. They made no other effort to assist them clean up. The hostess stood there and watched the girls clean up the table and chair. Get it together!!!! read more

I have been here three times. First time I heard of them, they cut my sister off. I went went there: they cut me off. I JUST went there: they kicked my friend out. They play music too loud and think they are the shit. Friday nights are super lame. They have big jenga and rely on that to get them to be on the upper echelon of shelton. They are nothing big nor a spot to go to. I'm very upset with myself that I left The Pub for this. read more

Terrible rude service. Would never recommend going here. They do not care about their customers.

I tried the strawberry cheesecake French Toast and honestly it was AMAZING !!!! Only downside was I had to check online to see that they had it... I wish it was on the menu ! But overall the service was good. One pointer I would add was whenever you have people dinning at your establishment your staff should smile more and be a little more welcoming but other than that I enjoyed myself read more

Good food, good brunch. Nice that they have outdoor seating. But the whole place smells like a dirty bar. Weekend nights it's a young, Valley crowd. No judgment, just a heads up. read more

Absolutely love going to center street all the time. The staff behind the bar and the kitchen staff are great

Although Center Street Social seems to be the hot spot in Shelton, I will NEVER return to this establishment again. I used to go here regularly, but ever since one particular Friday night I will never return. I went here on a Friday night and I understand that it gets busy there but there is no excuse for the way I was treated. When I went up to the bar to buy a beer, the bartender served two guys before me that showed up to the bar after me and when I tried to say something she said, "That's what happens when you don't open a tab." I thought this was ridiculous and I told her that I had cash to pay for my drink so when she walked away I thought for sure when she came back she would take my order. But instead, when she returned she asked the guy behind me what he wanted to drink. Being a little mad and annoyed I walked away and tried to go to a different part of the bar to ask another bartender for a drink. She followed to where I was and started to whisper to the other bartenders about me. I know this because they were all looking at me as she talked to them. Because I was so confused I am sure that it was showing on my face and bartender proceeded to say, "You can leave if you're gonna be a b**ch!!" I was so shocked and upset so I went outside to get some fresh air and then when I decided to go back inside the bouncer said to me, "You can't go back inside. You've been cut off." This shocked me even more. I had only had one beer before this all happened so there was no way I was in any way intoxicated. So basically the bartender refused me service, called me a b**ch, and then kicked me out for absolutely no reason. I think its safe to say I'll never be returning. They do not deserve another dime from me! read more

Big fan of Center Street Social. Where else can you go and get bottomless drinks for $15. There's no waiting on refills either...as soon as you're done with one drink, the waitress is bringing you the next. Brunch is pretty good. Are you going to be blown away by the food, probably not. Will you enjoy what you have, Im confident. When you're two Bloody Mary's and three Yuengling in, does it really matter. They have an extensive menu that has something for everybody....wait...did I mention bottomless drinks! If you're looking to start or end a weekend, hit up Center Street Social on Saturday or Sunday for the endless drink special. read more

The customer service here is TERRIBLE. We waited over an hour only for the hostess to say they were no longer serving brunch. Gianna was very rude and laughed when we called to ask about our reservation. Don't go here. They have no consideration for time and were way over capacity. This place should be shut down. The seats were not adequately spaced and they were not following proper Covid precautions. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. If I could give 0 stars I would! And I'm pretty sure I saw a rat. read more

I saw a post on Instagram that prompted me to want to come here. I saw a "grown up s'mores plate" that really caught my eye. After looking online I realized that item wasn't on the menu but decided to give it a shot anyways. As other reviewers have said, the parking is ATROCIOUS. It looked like the place would be mobbed by how many cars were parked along both sides of the road. We ended up parking in the Wells Fargo lot and walking. Not bad, but definitely annoying. We were expecting a wait, but to our surprise there wasn't that many people there for a Friday night. We were seated quickly. Then we waited. And waited, oh and waited some more. Nobody came for drinks, but we watched about 5 waiters walk by us, look, and keep walking. A table was seated after us, and got their drinks before us. I told my fiancé if they weren't there by a certain time we are leaving. They ended up finally coming, but blaming it on the hostess saying nobody told them we were there. They took our orders and waited. We got the nachos for the appetizers which were delicious. A great portion and very tasty. I got the BLT caprese sliders which were also amazing, whereas my fiancé got a burger. He said it was good but the bun was soggy on the bottom so he ended up eating it with a fork. To add, our bill was super expensive for 2 people. Almost $80 with tip for 2 drinks, apps and 2 dinners. Definitely not worth the price in my opinion. Not sure if the food would warrant us to come back. I was also disappointed they didn't have those s'mores on the menu. 3 stars for the obscene wait, the parking situation and the price. read more

Cute local place with good food but home of the hands down most pretentious ass of a bartender i've ever met, "Matthew Brisch". And yes I looked his name up because he was that horrible of a "server" and downright disrepectful. In the business of hospitality customers/guests are supposed to be treated with respect and the best care possible. Not talked down to, muttered snide comments at and then sent off with an overly obnoxious statement, yelled from the otherside of the room! Regardless of the scenario, a host/server/bartender is to ALWAYS maintain the coolest calm and respectful air towards their guest. And in my little scenario I upheld the respect Mr. Matt here lacks completely and gave no reason to be treated with such shitty service. Here goes: I walk into the bar with a couple friends, and decide to order a classic martini (gin& dry vermouth). The bartender a sweet lady with nothing but smiles proceeds to pour the ingredients into a shaker and then shake the crap out of my martini, pour it into a glass and serve it to me. The bartender was fine and dandy minus the fact that the Martini, one of the most classic cocktails of all time is NEVER to be shaken but is to always be stirred unless asked otherwise (forget about James bond). There are multiple reasons for this, the main ones being; shaking a martini over dilutes it, leaves chips of ice floating on the top of the drink, and actually distorts whats supposed to be a smooth gin drink because when shaking, the alcohol smashes back and forth and with no mixer/modifier in with it and all the extra air, actually risks bruising the alcohol and ruining its taste. Now before I start sounding like a pretentious ass myself let me say that I accepted the drink with a thankyou and tip for the bartender (it was busy and I was not going to ask her about the shaken martini infront of customers because that could reflect badly on her as a bartender and the business itself which I did not want to do!) However I did want to inquire about the shaken martini for the reason that someone else may go in wanting a real martini, watch it get shaken and not take it so lightly! So now we can cue in Matthew Brisch to ruin the day! Because as I stated above I didnt want to bring up any sort of complaints infront of other customers, while outside (my friends were smoking) Mr. Matt who I had also seen inside and appeared to be potentially heading the operation, walks over to check on us. This seems the best time for me to bring up my inquiry because 1) no one else is outside 2) he seemed like a main bartender 3) he didnt serve me the drink so by no means would I be offending him So now finally the disrespect: When asked how things were I politely and truthfully told him that "Everything was fine, but that I had ordered a classic martini, noticed that the lady had shaken it instead of stirring and was wondering if thats how everyone at Center Street Social was to make their martinis?" Hes responded with telling me that martinis are shaken unless asked for them stirred. This made me inquire in the reasoning considering the dilution ratio (which alters a drink completely) At this time my friend quipped (which i wouldn't have done because most bartenders think its a joke) "she went to bartending school" Mind you this "school" i went to was a 7 week, 100 hour course that went into how every kind of alcohol is made between the mashbill percentage to the process and exctr. That also included trips to brewery/winery to see first hand how things were done. And since graduating that school ive been bartending at a spot in Westport that goes into the molecular side of mixology and beyond. But I wasnt going to bring any of this up cause it shouldnt matter. I was a polite customer asking a proper question nicely! So Matt in response to my friends statement mutters under his breath "Yeah but she hasnt even been behind a bar yet" To which I asked "Sorry what was that? He then cowardly and rudely said "Oh nothing" So I told him "I actually work behind a bar" He snickered and in the most mocking tone says "Oh yeah what bar is that?" I briefly respond that I work at a bar in Westport. So he then says again ever so mocking and rudely "You can pretty much forget everything you think you know from bartending school" and then laughs at me. So I nicely responded that "The knowlege I gained I continually use at the place I bartend but I thank you for your opinion" To which he proceeded to snicker, tell me some more how I know nothing and walk away. So then as we finish our drinks, say goodbye and start to leave, Matt yells from the otherside of the outside bar again in the most mocking tone "Yeah bye keep stirring your martinis ha!" How rude and inhospitable can you be??? read more

My wife and I stopped in here for some lunch when we were in the area. It was a warm late spring afternoon and the patio was packed, so we took a seat inside. The inside feels very hip, with lots of unfinished wood and exposed brick. We ordered the steak bomb, and the chicken and waffles. The service was OK and the food was fine, but not very memorable. I was excited for the blue cheese coleslaw, but when it came it was just kind of limp and heavy and disappointing. read more

Ordered two steak bombs and a burger. $40. I've eaten there before and the steak bombs USED to be excellent. The two steak sandwiches were without a doubt the worst I have ever been served by any establishment. Ever. Dry, missing most of the toppings that were asked for, the bread is clearly old and stale, and the sandwich was smaller than a 6" from Subway. This is a $13 sandwich I'm talking about. Named the "Steak BOMB". It's pathetic. I called and expressed all of this frustration and to their credit the bartender (Sarah) was very apologetic and did what she could to try and make it right. But when you have 30 mins for lunch going back to get another disgusting sandwich isn't the solution. Extremely disappointed. I'll never be back. Management should be embarrassed to let food like that leave its kitchen. read more

The brunch drinks specials are my favorite about this place, $15.00 bottomless Mimosa, Bellini, or Bloody Mary! And you can't go wrong with the "breakfast shots" (check out the brunch menu). The food has been good as well, we've had both breakfast and lunch items and haven't had a bad meal. Most recently the hubby got a steak and eggs platter and I had a lobster roll. It's not a huge building so it can get busy, but the wait staff tries to stay on top of things and does a pretty good job. read more

Bartenders here are goofs. Cannot handle major holidays. Get mad at customers for silly reasons. I was yelled at when I raised my beer in the air while ordering another. The bartender flipped and claimed I was waving it in his face. I was 5 feet away and nowhere near his face. Was about to give him a tip before leaving but I guess they prefer yelling to getting paid. #centerstreetantisocial #killingthebuzzisnotpartofyourjob #canthandleyourjob read more

I had to update my original four star review because every time I head to this place the service and atmosphere continues to get worse and worse. This is an absolute shame as this place was a gem when it first opened. There's a certain head bartender (not naming any names) who seems to forget her tables all the time. We say outside yesterday and ordered two margheritas. 15 minutes later I asked a runner (who were wonderful by the way) to get our waitress. She came back with two HORRIBLY watered down drinks and then had the nerve to ask "do you guys need more time before ordering?" I laughed and then we ordered. I then asked her for a second drink. The food came out very fast and of course by the time we we're completely finished with dinner, our second round of drinks conveniently appeared. She was awful. It was the same bartender at a recent wing festival who also posed a lot of attitude as well.... It's too bad, the exterior decor of this place is beautiful, but once inside the service has a lot to be desired. The owner needs to rethink his approach id say! I probably won't be returning here with my friends for quite awhile. read more

Went to trivia last night with a group of friends. While the trivia was itself was fun, the host would BLAST music in between questions!! It was AWFUL!! The table next to us got up and left. I have experienced this with their brunch as well. I'm not sure why they would think that is something their customers would enjoy.... when you are counting the seconds until you leave. It's unfortunate because I think it's a great place otherwise. Unfortunately, it's so bad, we will prob not be back. BTW.. we came in second place read more

Favorite brunch spot. Prices are reasonable. Bottomless Mimosa, Bellini, and Bloody Mary all for $15. Rebecca popped my Bloody Mary cherry haha- but honestly the drink was great. Food portions equate to price. I had the Banana Bread French Toast topped with strawberries which was delish. I'm more of a waffle person so the Belgian Waffles topped with banana, candied walnuts and whipped cream hit the spot. Semi crisp edges and soft, melt in your mouth waffles in the middle. My server was Rebecca and her service was phenomenal. Needless to say, I'll be back. read more

Loved the Sunday Brunch here! Great menu options for both lunch and breakfast foods. The staff is very friendly, music selection was great and bottomless mimosas keep coming. Word of advice: YOU MUST CALL FOR RESERVATIONS gets extremely packed fast on a Sunday as is any other good brunch place. Will be back! read more

A local place with bar and dinner service. I had the Center Street Mussels. The mussels were nice and the cream sauce that came with it was quite nicely. It also came with crostini. There was no vegetables though so one should order a side salad. A person in my party ordered the tomato basil soup which, instead of croutons, had little grilled cheese sandwiches as croutons. The portion size for that soup is huge. They have Hartford Better Beer Co on tap. It was good to try a local brewery. The noise level at the restaurant was quite high on a Thursday night. The service was a little spotty since one of the people at out table didn't get utensils or napkin. Overall, the food was quite good but one may choose to go to another place if a quieter setting is desired. read more

Made a stop here on a Sunday afternoon and we enjoyed it. Nice rustic atmosphere, decent beer list, and some cool cocktails. Loved the Fishbowl idea!! The menu looked good but we only wanted a munchie so ordered the pretzel and let me tell you...that was all we needed as it was huge! Definitely enough for 2 to 4 people to share as an appetizer or munchie. Loved the presentation and the dipping sauces were good too. It was very tasty! read more

Good place......if you're over the age of 21. They make a big stink about 19 and 20 year olds sitting in the restaurant after dark with those of legal drinking age, but will allow children screaming and running around regardless. They say they have a sign that states no one under 21 allowed without a guardian etc, but it's hidden in the dark under the main window. Extremely disappointing, since they have never enforced this rule the hundreds of times I've been here with friends under the age of 21 for dinner with some drinks. They trust 12 year olds over 20 year old female students living and working here! read more

They have a nice beer selection on tap. The menu is a little bit different but then mango habanero wings were great and the burgers are very good. The fries are excellent. The service was super friendly and made this a great visit. They are a bar that serves food and I gave them a 5 star rating for doing a great job at it. read more

Stopped in for brunch today for the 60th time, and everything is great every time. The food, service, drinks. The Sunday vibe at Center street is awesome but I just wish the music wasn't as loud because I could barely hear my friends, and I'm in my 20's. But nonetheless, love this place. read more

Great staff, atmosphere, music, and food!! Went here with my family for Sunday morning brunch... We had a reservation so they sat us immediately. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. She was quick on the refills for the bottomless mimosas. The music was loud but fun...happy/upbeat songs. There was a range of age groups in attendance. Ordered the strawberry stuffed French toast - delicious! My mom ordered an omelette and my dad got the lobster benedict - all of us cleaned our plates! read more

I like going to this place because its local, I can get a decent meal/drink and the staff is friendly. The prices are reasonable and the food and drinks are creative but a 5/6 out of 10. You wont hate it here but you will not be gaga over it either. The decor is cool, lots of objects to look at and they have an outside patio with a bar and TV. To me this place is a 3 because the food (yet creative) is a good dinner quality and I think they are trying to be more gastro pub and they miss the mark. They can easily be a 4-5 is they fix the execution of the creative menu. If you live in the area you probably been here and if you are passing through stop in for a bite and beverage.

Center Street Social, oh how I want to love you. So many good things going for it: looks great inside, great beer list, friendly folks working there. The food just never seems to deliver. They have some exciting menu options from chicken and waffles to delicious sounding black and blue burger. I've been here for lunch several times now and tried a range of options from the menu. Each time the food disappointed. Nothing bad, just nothing popping either. I'll still come for the beer, but will stick to a salad with blackened chicken - on the pricey side but they do this one pretty well. I should mention they put together an amazing cold spicy melon soup last year for a nearby festival. It was amazing. I looked forward to ordering it, but the price was outrageous (I can't recall exactly how much). read more
