There's always something we are excited to check out when we haven't been in a while. The restaurant is both nice enough that you feel really good bringing your out of town friends here to try and impress while also being low-key enough for a simple date night with your significant other. They have a few non-alcoholic drink options. As someone who's living the sober lifestyle, it's always nice to see that. The restaurant is well managed and well maintained. Always clean, servers seem invested. It doesn't hurt to make a reservation if you're coming on a Friday or weekend night. Chicken is the star of the show here, and we almost always order that with some of the ala carte sides, but my wife also likes to grab something else off the menu and I'll usually sneak a bite. We've never had anything that fell below expectations.

The mule is definitely my favorite drink here, it's been made perfectly each time I had it. We had a big group, so we ordered a variety of bar bites and I'm thoroughly impressed with the quality of all the food. Especially the garlic bread, wow!!! It was piping hot, fresh and fluffy and just perfect. The host for trivia did a fantastic job and created a super fun event for us. The questions were general-knowledge enough that mostly anyone could have participated. Somehow our team won and the prizes were so fun!! More people need to know about this place!!

Went to Spelunkers back on March 22 to check out some live music that they had that night. Good…read morelive music in Southington is hard to come by in the area. I used to go down the street, but the music selection there changed. For those of you frequent to Southington, Spelunkers took over the old Dial 9 speakeasy location. It's a competitive food area and I didn't know what to expect. I'm happy to say that for being marketed as strictly a dive bar, Spelunkers hit all the marks and some. It also was surprisingly large inside compared to what it looked like from the outside (Which was great because some of the other bars nearby are cramped). Their burgers were good and my friends felt the same way about the food that they ordered as wll. They have ample seating (and a variety of it) as well as a pool table and some arcade games to do while listening to music. Prices for drinks were also fair. The interaction that I had with staff, although brief was very friendly. The band they had that night was excellent. Glad I came to see them. They played an eclectic mix of both genres and decades. They were energetic, their song choice were great and they were refreshing to see compared to the typical Southington fare. If they come back to Spelunkers, I'll free my schedule up to come and see. Been watching the socials . Happy to have a fun bar experience again around here and look forward to my next trip.

She even went and sang with some of the regulars during their songs.

Note they also offer happy hour (aka monkey hour ) Tuesday-Friday 3-5:30 I ordered the frazberry froze which was really good it literally tasted like a raspberry sorbet in drink form which I loved . Service was great our server was very attentive and checked up on us regularly and we got our food pretty quick . For my entree I ordered the chicken sandwich . Which was grilled chicken , bacon , Avacado and a creamy aioli served in a fresh bun and a side of fries ! Soooo good highly recommend. Overall 4/5 good food good service plenty of seating ( I only give it 4 stars because I loved the original location)

The food, at that time, consistently matched the atmosphere and made it a place worth returning to. Since its relocation, however, the experience has not been the same. While it's nice that they still offer live music and occasional events, the overall quality particularly the food no longer meets the standard I once associated with it. Unfortunately, it's lost much of the charm and appeal that made it special, and I find myself no longer wanting to visit.

Instead of bingo numbers, you need to dab songs that the DJ is playing all night!! This is such a fun and interactive night out! We were dancing, singing and enjoying this 3 hour event. I cannot get over how fun this event was! Even though we didn't win anything, we were having a good time. We were either jamming out to amazing music, raving on stage with the DJ, or competing in contests throughout the night. Parking is $20 but free along the streets if you're comfortable doing so. We did and had no issues. There is a bar. We got the 5 for $35 bucket which included a choice of cider, white claws and spiked lemonade. There is also concessions which are fairly cheap. $2 popcorn and $3 pretzels with a variety of chips, drinks, hots dogs, cookies to choose from.

Because it is a small, intimate theater, you can really appreciate facial expressions and hear vocals and dialogue. With the orchestra tucked up above the stage, you're wicked close to the action.

You are in a residential area and must find on street parking. Bring cash for snacks. Also, there was a spontaneous auction of a handcrafted Repertory Theater mascot to raise funds. You might want to carry a credit card! FUN.

(as the kids say) It was crowded despite being early evening. The only available seats were at the bar area near the windows, which was fine because we were determined to experience the "new" place.

The host was attentive and gave us the royal treatment. We put this gem back on rotation and we are definitely returning!!!

After being dragged here once we've returned two more times and just enjoy the pure mayhem of it all. Irish-American folks and wannabees all running amok. The real acid-test of this bar was the fact that staff as well as customers are friendly and fun-loving unconditionally. Our first go-around was in the company of a local celebrity -- the drinks came fast and kept coming. Several customers ambled over to meet & greet our friend. Next visit we went without him and yet found the service swift and the atmosphere quite friendly. One in our party became rather obviously drunk -- and but for being shut-off he was not made to feel uncomfortable nor were we. Mind you, our crew is usually very well-behaved. But, hey, this place brings out the lush in all of us, I guess. On a recent afternoon we discovered there was some kind of food, roast beef with potatoes and gravy, I think. It smelled awesome but we were here for the booze. Cheerful, efficient bar staff kept 'em coming. Our visits were all week-end afternoons, so can't comment on the night life. Irish bands are featured.
