Sneekers Cafe - American Near Me - Groton, Connecticut

The food was excellent! I had the sirloin and it was exactly how I wanted it cooked, delicious. My lady had the salmon it was perfect. Drinks were well made by a very happy and warm staff who kept apologizing because it took a while to serve us. The only thing I would suggest is putting an extra bartender on to just do service. We loved the entire vibe and will definitely be back! Thx for all your hard work! read more

This is an unassuming bar cafe in a strip mall. I would say that Sneekers is loaded with regulars and locals. One of my friends recommended this place to me. So I went. Like I said, it's a local bar that serves decent food. I ordered the Rhode Island clam chowder and a grilled ham and cheese sandwich for about $15. I also had a local craft beer. The craft beer was suggested by the waitress and was cold, and on point with a citrusy flavor. It was really good. Nothing seemed to hit me on the menu so I went with Rhode Island clam chowder to compare, that included a grilled ham and cheese sandwich. The Rhode Island clam chowder was OK. But the grilled ham and cheese was on point, that included lots of cheese, and a smoky ham. I like this. On a cold and damp day like today, I couldn't think of anything better than soup and a grilled cheese. This was comfort food. So if you're ever in the Groton area, and you're hungry and need a beer or a cocktail, this would be an OK stop. There are other choices I would like to visit, so I'm sorry to say this is probably a one and done for me. The place was dimly lit, I didn't have a chance to check out the bathrooms, but I did happen to notice the adult only store a couple doors down to the left of this place. No, I did not check it out therefore no review on the adult store. read more

I came by with the family on a Thursday evening. They had live music and it was packed. We found one single table near the music, which it was not the best choice but we were hungry and didn't want to wait. The music was too loud and not synchronized properly so it hurt our ears. Songs were nice it just was too close for us. About 15 minutes later, The waitress was nice enough to move us farther as soon as a table became available and that was awesome. Food came quick enough considering how packed it was. I didn't take any pictures on this day because for real I was very hungry. We had 3 Ruben sandwiches and sweet potatoes. It was perfect. We all devoured it. We had some chicken tenders and fries; and extra sweet potatoes to share. Everything was delicious. We did have to tell the waitress about a few things that were forgotten but she was always pleasant. We left very happy. I'm sure people may not think much of this place but I can tell you the food and atmosphere are great. They have a full bar; great prices; fun bartenders and good variety of draft beers which I love. Enjoy!! read more

We got into town late and were thinking of going to Sneeker's because their website indicated they were open until 11:00 PM. We phoned at 9:30 PM to double check, only to be told the kitchen had just closed! What the heck?!? Very disappointing! read more

We were in town for a Safety Training for Commercial Fishermen at Avery Point. Went to Sneekers after day 2. Great neighborhood vibe. Great service by Jainie. On our restaurant list now! read more

Service was great. Good pub vibe. Food was, eh. Nothing special. Kid had chicken Parm, other had wings. Wings were good. Chicken parm-eh. Again nothing special. read more

True Score: 2.25 Stars What could be great, unfortunately is not. A few people I knew always boasted about how amazing their wings were, and I knew about this place after coming here for their martinis and brussels sprouts a few times. I decided to order wings and brussels sprouts once they came back open. Today I did - a poor presentation. - I don't understand why they have such a good rep for their wings, they were not cooked enough and small. The brussels sprouts were Brussel leafs, black ones at that. The service itself was poor too. Took us 20 minutes to get the check. This place is dark, decently priced, with a real bar atmosphere. It has all of the tools to be great, but fell flat. Thanks read more

Friendly folks serving fantastic food. We enjoyed some perfectly made Martinis and then shared fish and chips and a steaming hot bowl of French onion soup. The perfect combination to end a long day. read more

Amazing food! The Wicked Chicken is hot, but delicious! Great live music and the staff is awesome!

TLDR: Great Food, great service, rustic ambiance. Came here for lunch with a very large party. The service staff was very nice, I was very surprised at how fast the food cameout for out group of 18 people. Food: - Garlic Bread: 5/5 - The blue cheese garlic bread is too die for. I have never thought of putting blue cheese on garlic bread, but now I am glad I tried it. -BBLT Sandwich: 4/5 - A very good BLT, only complaint would be, its a little tall making it harder to eat. read more

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making everyone feel at ease and truly enhancing the overall experience.

Wholesome food, great service, we were taken care of like family! This place obviously has a lot of local history. The tables are all laced with photographs from over the years. So glad we found this place... The food was great and the service was amazing. read more

I really like the environment at Sneakers. It's welcoming and even the patrons treat each other well. It's nice to feel at home when not at home. The food is good and the beer is cold read more

I genuinely enjoyed my experience at Sneekers Cafe. This establishment has a dive bar feel. The bartenders are talented at making a various assortment of cocktails of which are decently priced. The service is terrific as drinks are served promptly and the bartenders upkeep a friendly, hospitable atmosphere. Above all else, the drinks tasted amazing. read more

Let me start out with when you walk in you time warp back to the 80's. Don't panic and run for I had the thought to run but became extremely happy I stayed. While sitting and looking around the establishment you can pick up on who is a regular in this place. The interaction is great between the staff and them to the point you would say they are family. The service was great and my wife and I tried the potato balls. They were about the size of a baseball, but dang they were great and with the horsy sauce they got better. To the main courses and my wife had the Chicken parm and stated it was good. The portion was large so she never finished it. My meal was the Wicked Chicken Pasta. This entree was fantastic. I never have seen this on any menu before and was very delighted with it. It has a creamy Gorgonzola sauce with cherry peppers and the chicken is buffalo sauced. I could not not finish this my self and well we have lunch now. When I'm the area I will be back for as they say don't judge a book by its cover. Side note they have live bands in the weekend and the music they play while in there is the great sounds of the 80's! This is a must stop place in CT read more

Sneekers Cafe - Roast beef club absolutely delicious like everything else - American Near Me - Groton, Connecticut

So this place may be located in an "ugly strip mall" but there's a reason they have been in business for 30+ years. The food puts a new meaning to 'bar food'. You can't go wrong. If it is on the menu they will do it right. Some of my faves are the Gorgonzola Bread, the Wicked Chicken. potato balls and any scallop dish. Yes scallops in a bar! This is the shoreline after all! Tonight's special? Seafood stuffed mushrooms that put any fine dining establishment to the test. This place is also THE local home to live music. If you need some live entertainment in your life , check this place out! read more

We came 2x in one week! Dinner on a Saturday and lunch the following Saturday. Terry was our server Saturday's afternoon and was awesome! Even helped with our April fools jokes! Appetizers were average bar style but the Meals were awesome! From the flatbread to the salmon salads! And OMG don't forget the desserts!! read more

We aren't locals, but discovered the Sneekers Cafe on the recommendations of several locals. Their praises were spot on. Clearly beloved by locals, yet warm & welcoming to those traveling through the area. The appetizer Brussels Sprouts were SO crispy & flavorful, even without the aioli dip which only complemented the yummy-ness! The Fish & Chips special for only $14.99 was quite tasty and fresh and it's obvious why that is what they are known for. My Mussels & Clams in garlicky tomato broth was so delicious that I requested a spoon to get every drop of that broth after using the 3 slices of fresh French bread to sop up all I could. Dessert for my hunbie was a 'homemade' Black Forest Cake which he raved about as he quickly devoured it. I preferred to drink my dessert in the form of their Key Lime Pie Martini, not overly sweet with a fresh lime taste, topped with whipped cream, served in a graham cracker rimmed glass. The perfect exclamation point to end my meal. read more

Sneekers Cafe - Brussel Sprouts appetizer - American Near Me - Groton, Connecticut

Food was amazing! I had chicken gumbo with cornbread like it was straight from NOLA. The other person had the Annie Ruben with delicious potato salad, and the other person enjoyed the turkey blt and fries. Service was attentive and manager came around asking how everything was. Fun place to visit and eat. Large portions enough to split meals if you agree on the same thing. Atmosphere was locals have been enjoying the bar and greet visitors as new neighbors. read more

A few people I knew always boasted about how amazing their wings were, and I knew about this place after coming here for their martinis and brussels sprouts a few times. Well after they had been shut down for a few weeks, I decided to order wings and brussels sprouts once they came back open. Today I did - horrible, absolutely terrible presentation. - I don't understand why they have such a good rep for their wings, it was mostly cartilage and veins, and the ckn legs were all snapped in half upon receiving them. The brussels sprouts were brussel leafs, black ones at that. And when I opened their container, they put the sauce container within that, to my surprise it was melted. Melted plastic in my food! Giving two stars, because my friends said their wings were good, beyond my opinion, and they have decent martinis. read more

Never a bad meal here at sneekers! We are regulars & enjoy most of the food on their menu which has unfortunately been scaled down significantly since COVID & the pandemic started reeking havoc on the restaurant & bar industry!! Always great food, great service & a great time for whatever food you like from burgers to seafood, pot roast & everything in between! While here make sure you start with an appetizer of their house specialty wicked chicken! You won't be disappointed!! read more

For a n eatery in a neighborhood shopping center, it's fares pretty well .... Theres a pizza joint two doors down. But they're not competition . Mostly laborers from electric boat One Thera that populate the area.... The food is above average. The service is spotty. , and it's loud ....., But that's how locals get...., the root is suitycompetition. read more

The staff who work here are very kind. Despite being near closing time, they seated our group of 10. Also, they have 50 cents wings on Sundays which are great. Not only do they have standard flavors like Buffalo and BBQ, they have unique flavors as well that come in wet and dry rubs. Would recommend! read more

Food was impressive! One of the best fish sandwiches I have ever eaten! My husband had a great Reuben. Service was fast and friendly. Glad we came. read more

Came here and found amazing service and delicious wings in a variety of wet and dry flavors. There was a special going on for the wings on a Sunday afternoon, so definitely got a great deal for the price. Will return if I'm in the area. read more

The little shopping center Sneekers sits in seems a bit sketchy, but was pleasantly surprised by the place, itself. Funky little dive bar/pub. When I went (on a Wednesday night about 9:00), they had some live music going making for a fun atmosphere. Seems like a local version of Cheers...where you go, and everybody knows everybody, and everybody seems to have a great time. I ordered a burger which was tasty and was good portion size for the price. I don't drink, but from what I could tell, seems like there was no shortage of selection if that's your thing. Only reason I give a 4 instead of 5 is because I did have to wait for a long time to place/get my order. There a few very large parties there and only one waitress working to room. I can't fault them too much, though, as it seems to be that everyone is hurting for staff. Bottom line, would go back. read more

Food weve had was decent..Reuben sandwich w/fries. I wouldnt eat in however, spouse said it was a bit of a dive however saw several seniors in there eating at waited tables & sipping on beers. I believe theres music on some nites too. Seems pop by locals, been in business for decades. The parking lot is largely taken over by the restaurant/pub. Its next door to a nice Greek owned pizza parlor, Pano's. However, to Sneeker's left is some seedy sex/porn video store & freaky massage joint after that. Its too bad the perv-addicted businesses werent relocated to the hotel just in abutting pkg lot. This 4 business plaza is an interesting mix, lol. read more

35 years of business, 35 years of local, 35 years of AWESOME!!! We absolutely adore Sneekers Cafe located in the heart of Groton. Walk in and immediately feel at home. No need to wait for a hostess to seat you. When you're here, you're immediately Sneekers family. Find to your own table and get comfortable! On a typical Friday evening you can find live music, a great crowd, fantastic specials, and wonderful service! Our favorite dinner menu options....the wicked chicken and presidential onion rings. Imagine chicken in a calamari mix! #Winning The presidential onion rings are made to perfection in small batches and thinly cut. Sooooooo good!!!!! Pro tip, Monday night is steak nights. Can't beat the quality and special prices. Sneekers is the kind of place you can come independently, as a date night, or a large group. This Groton staple is a hometown favorite and one of our go to stops! Quality, price, and customer experience create a home run! We love Sneekers! read more

Comfortable place with great food! Interesting ambiance. I deviated a bit from the menu description and they happily accommodated me.

Have been here before but went a few months ago on weekend. Kitchen was closed by 930pm on a weekend and inthink a holiday one too.... otherwise food and drinks are good. Enjoy coming here when I cam order food. read more

A very unassuming looking place from the outside but once you get inside it's like home! The waitstaff was super attentive and explained various menu items to us. I had the Holiday Salad, very flavorful. My wife had a salad as well and was a happy camper. There was a lot more on the menu that we want to come back to try. Bottom line, they make strangers feel like regulars and have won us as future customers. We're already telling friends about it! read more

Their Fish and Chips are world class ! This Grub Pub does not leave you lacking...for The generous portions, food quality, freshness, expert preparation and BEST service: you'll want to visit this place...It sets, for ME- a whole new standard! And, yes, I warned them-upon my departure-That I'll be Back !!! My NEW FAVORITE !!! read more

Pub food is the focus here. Cheeseburgers, fish & chips, reubens etc-all w/great fries. Theres sit-down tables, a bar & live music on scheduled days everyone seems to really enjoy. Its a 40+ yo establishment so very "townie" which is cozy. Pro, skilled service..a focused order taker even over country music in bkgrd manages to get your order straight, hallelujah! Too many inept kids at many restaurants not properly giving your order to cook these days..make this a standout. I largely use takeout, theyre quick and food's hot. Its within a sm plaza next door to Pano's Pizza parlor, another nice Greek pizza place in Groton. Stay away from left side as 2 units seem to cater to adult porn-really wish the landlord of this tiny plaza (4) renters would move these 2 on left if Sneekers & Panos to a highway motel area. Jeez! read more

very nice, better than one could possibly expect in such an unassuming small strip mall. Always find parking, atmosphere, food, prices, the very nice (good looker) owner almost always present and checking up on everything. Always (maybe 6 X in two years) a good amount of folks having a good time. read more
