Chicken noodle soup
Kathleen S.

Came here for a quick bite to eat. I wasn't feeling that well so soup sounded good. I order the chicken noodle soup and my wife got the cheddar broccoli soup. Both soups were yummy. I also couldn't help but to grab a chocolate chip cookie and a lemon bar. Happy I did because they were delicious! The treats I got were even better than the soups! Definitely great place to grab something quick and yummy. Staff was super friendly and restaurant was clean. Prices were fair!

Lobster roll, onion rings and soda

Just ordered takeout from here. Easy to place an online order for pickup which is convenient. Only took like 20 mins to be ready for pickup. The prices are not too bad. The lobster roll was good as were the onion rings. Hubby got the chicken parm sandwich and that was also fine. Nice local spot.

Ooh, and the bread!

The road signs and online pictures posted of Lobster Roll were tempting, if I hadn't just had one yesterday. It was the best BLT I've ever had! Perfection!

First trip to CT and had to try a Connecticut lobster roll! Found Spoonshoppe Brook Deli on our way to Bradley International Airport and stopped for lunch. It was the perfect pit stop. Cute deli and market, but most importantly... the perfectly toasted warm buttery bread and 1/4 lb of lobster meat. The lobster was fresh and perfectly dressed with (more) warm butter. If you are looking for a CT style lobster roll and are in the area, definitely add Spoonshoppe Brook Deli to your list!

Holy Heaven!! Sooo I pull up to this place around 4:15pm and I see maybe 2 cars in the parking lot and think I've missed out. I almost leave but I see this guy watering plants and sign says open, so I jumó out the truck walk over and sure enough they are open. You can't go inside, (Covid) so someone comes out and as I'm looking over the menu I see, "Famous Lobster Roll." Heck why not, I love lobster and I'm hungry. Let me tell you this is where things get exciting. So I'm sitting down and she brings me this brown bag. I open it and inside is this roll in the foil wrap. I begin to unwrap the role and bam! A combo punch between between the smell and the look chunks of buttery lobster!! My mouth begins to salivate. I can't hold back I have to take a bite. As I dig in and take the first bite I get this warm buttery flavorful bread, toasted just enough and then BAM you are digging into the warm, buttery flavor town chunks of lobster meat. Your eyes shut closed and im saying thank you Jesus! because He created this magnificent creature that swims in the ocean and now I get to consume it on this amazing role. Yes this role was that good. So good I ordered another one and savored every bite for as long as possible. I will be back to try other items but not without ending it with this lobster roll!!

Fresh & plenty of menu items to chose from. They have soups and sandwiches burgers, hotdogs,grilled cheese and even seafood that all sound like a nice lunch hour choice especially if you call ahead. It's clean and we'll organized here ,but the bathroom situation is a little weird you get the key and have to go outside to the side of the building . The clam strips we're good but pricey(by the pound) and a small side (box) is around 7 bucks. They are crispy and a decent size. I would try the meal next time for value wise. I also has a side of beef stew soup . It was really a soup loads of meat and potatoes very filling even a small size(4) They have grab and go items and pumpkins for sale in the Fall. Pies and cookies . Parking is plentiful .

Best CT Hot Lobster Roll!!
Jocelyn I.

They have the most delicious and cheapest lobster roll around. Idk why its taken me so long to learn this. Everywhere else is a hit or miss but this place is a guarantee hit for lobster roll. Perfectly buttery & delectable. Also they have adorable hand made chocolate treats !!! Cheap too!! New tradition is every year to treat myself on my birthday.

Not the biggest roll, but it wasn't expensive.

Lobster rolls! Lobster was straight fire toasted to perfection and fresh! I will be back! Make sure you order 2-3 of them

Turkey Sandwich

The grinder was delicious- good amount of turkey, all the veggies were fresh, bread was tasty. It really was a great grinder :)

We LOVE this deli and market. Ok, so it's almost 2 hours from our house. We just find excuses to sort of drive by on our way to anywhere in New England. Like we did on our way to Rhode Island. The sandwich selection is awesome, with our favorite being the lobster roll on a toasted, buttered roll. They pack about 1/4 pound of lobster onto this side-split bun. Mostly everything is fresh, and sandwiches are made to order. They offer a daily selection of fresh baked cookies and pastries. Oh, and HUGE kosher garlic pickles in the fridge. You have to survey the chalkboard menu, place your order at the window and serve yourself. All to our delight.

New to Connecticut but grew up on Long Island. I was looking for a good deli where I could get a…read moregood chicken cutlet sub, well this place probably has one of the best chicken cutlet grinders (as they call them here in Connecticut) I have ever had!!! Service was great and I will definitely be driving from Newington just for this sub! Try them, you won't be disappointed!

Long-time fan, but disappointed with the new Italian combo portions…read more I've been coming here for years and have always loved the Italian combo grinder -- the bread is still fantastic (crusty outside, soft inside, just right), the long hot peppers pack that perfect kick, and the overall flavor profile is still spot-on. The shop looks great after the recent updates under new ownership -- cleaner, brighter, more inviting space. That said, I was really let down on my first visit since the change. The grinder I got for lunch had noticeably less meat than before. What used to be a hearty, well-stacked sandwich with generous layers of cold cuts now felt skimpy on the protein -- probably about half (or less) the amount I was used to. The other components (cheese, veggies, hot sauce) were fine, but the lack of meat made it feel more like a veggie-heavy sub than the satisfying Italian combo I always counted on. Everything else was good -- friendly service, quick prep, fresh ingredients -- so I'm hoping this was just an off day or an adjustment period with the new team. I'd love to see the portions return to their old generous standard, because the foundation here is still strong. 2.5/5 stars from me right now. Still my go-to deli in the area, but I'll be watching to see if the meat comes back in full force. Keep up the great bread and peppers!

I got married a few weeks ago on 8/20/21 at the Branford House in Groton CT, and Emily's catering…read moremade our event absolutely incredible. My family has used Emily's quite a few times now for big events... The first being my high school graduation party, as well as my dad's 50th Surprise party. When it came to finding a caterer for my wedding, there was no one else that came close to the quality / value / attention to detail that Emily's Catering provides. Food is a big deal for my large Italian / Irish family, so we wanted to go "all out" and Emily's made it possible. My husband and I were able to pick up to 8 different Hors d'oeuvres to be passed out during the cocktail hour (most places only allow you to pick 2-3). The appetizers were not only delicious, but also extremely unique and fun! Some of the apps even came with a mini cocktail pairing! For example, the quesadilla app came with a mini don julio margarita! How fun is that?! My guests are still raving about the cocktail hour. We did a plated dinner with four different options, Chicken, Steak, Red Snapper or Portobello Mushroom (Vegetarian). Again, most places seem to limit you to only three options. We just kept getting more bang for our buck!! The portions were extremely generous and the flavors were to die for. We also had a late night pizza station, as well as ice cream bar / coffee station. I swear, my guests were just STUNNED by the fantastic variety. Emily's Catering surpassed our expectations. Essentially, my family and I were able to have a "baller" wedding for a reasonable price. The investment was well worth every penny and my husband and I could not be happier. Rick and Cheryl are highly professional individuals and a joy to work with. They made the stressful wedding process easy and we experienced top notch customer service the entire time. We will be using Emily for ALL of our important events in the future. If you are debating hiring Emily's for your next event, do it! You will NOT regret it.

Emily's did a fantastic job catering my son's wedding! The hors d'oeuvres were a hit! Excellent…read morepresentation. My favorite were the fried artichokes and truffle fries. I was very impressed with the service. My pet peeve is dirty dishes sitting in front of people and that did not happen! The wedding cake was delicious. White homemade cake with a light strawberry cream. My only suggestion would be to have had someone to serve all the pies. It was kind of awkward having to do it yourself. I definitely recommend Emily's for your next event.
