Atmosphere was buzzing and people were enjoying conversations over beer at the counter and tables…read more Group of 3 friends, we went for dinner. Deep sighs from lady at counter clearly irritated at our question if there were any sandwiches or handhelds as she flung her hand up at the screen. Apologized and said we'd seen them listed on the website. Not a great welcome. Ordered at the counter and handed a buzzer. We all ordered ourselves. Collectively - two pizzas, three orders of wings, and a Ceasar salad. We also went to the bar to get drinks. Then we got our own paper plates, napkins, and plasticware. Buzzer went off for one of us about ten minutes later. Pizza. Then 5 minutes later, another's. Wings. Not one person's whole order, but piecemeal. We made SIX separate trips from the front where we were sitting all the way to the back. So it was grab a bite of pizza - BUZZZZZZ - go get salad - a few mouthfuls - BUZZZZZZ - one order of wings - this dance went on for a half hour! Who eats like that? Salad was warm, drowned in anchovy forward dressing and limp lettuce. Asked for extra crispy wings. Flaccid. Super bummed. We had to go back to place our order, get our own tableware, set the table, and then pick up the food... If we had known all this I don't know that we would each have left a 20% tip after ordering. Received more care and service at a DD drive through. Pizza itself was great - just cold by the time we got all our food and were able to sit still and eat. So... all in all - great atmosphere to grab a beer at the bar and yak or order ONE pizza so you all could actually enjoy it warm. Group each wanting something different or expecting food brought to you - not the spot. Just go with the right expectations and you will enjoy.

Had the pork chops with French Fries broccoli and apple sauce. Ate at the bar for faster service…read more Service was quick and efficient. The pork chops were huge and cooked to perfection.

They were some of the best clams I've ever had in my life. And they also had whole belly clams, which I think are much better than the regular fried clams.

Stopped by for dinner with friends. Here's a shotgun review:…read more - Friendly service - Plenty of parking* - Casual, outdoor dining on gravel - Good gathering spot for large groups - Gluten-free New England Clam Chowder** - Mixed up entrees, could've been an actual disaster*** *Massive paved parking lot, good for cars & motorcycles. **I was excited to see this on the menu & of course ordered it, but it was a bit of a let-down. The clam pieces were big, chewy, & fishy. ***My friend's vegan burger was placed in front of me & my gluten-free burger was placed in front of my friend. The employee dropping the food even asked "gluten-free over here?" before placing the vegan burger in front of me. We self-corrected this at the last possible second, because my friend cut into her burger & just as she was about to take a bite she realized it was real meat. This could've been a disaster for both of us. May I suggest those little toothpicks for marking allergies & whatnot? Visiting Jealous Monk was a very average experience. The whole food situation was just so Sysco - I'd rather just cook at home. I think this is a good spot for large groups & beer enthusiasts.

Came in for lunch, we had burgers, drinks, buffalo cauliflower and Shepards pie…read more The cauliflower has blue cheese sprinkled on top, it could be overwhelming if you're not into it. Next time I'd ask for a cup of buffalo sauce on the side. Burger and fries were made to order and came out hot and fresh out the kitchen. The Shepards pie was enough to take half home with the broiled potatoes on top *chefs kiss*. It also included some raisin bread and butter. My mouth is still watering. I also had their equivalent to a rum punch x2 so good. We sat in the front room on the right that had a warm and toasty vibe, carpeted with a peculiar scent, but great people watching. Service was great, it wasn't too busy during the early noon time we went.

Classic and great New England Brewery. They are focused on what's in the can!…read more Industrial location. Cool and welcoming bartender. I had a SUBDuction and some pale ale named after a Navy ship. The Subduction was outstanding and can stand w/ the top tier of NEIPA. They have other alcoholic drinks for non-beer drinkers. I've been reliably informed they were good. No food and nothing delicious close. My guess is they bring in food trucks on busy nights. Will recommend and come back when in the area.

4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here. Skip to the end to see my rating scale…read more The big three things I look for most in a brewery are dog friendly area, decent food availability, and of course, quality beers. We didn't explore the food options around the area as we were just passing through, but it's in an area with multiple takeout options so you can always bring your own stuff in. I absolutely loved the atmosphere. It's a blue collar brewery - the customers and staff are clearly my kind of people. A couple of shipyard welders stopped by our picnic table outside to visit our dog and chat a minute. So the vibes are great - a place that I'd no doubt be a regular at if I didn't live 9 hours away. Solid beer selection and my flight didn't disappoint. I could have easily spent an entire evening there sipping on any one of them. It's located in a strip mall, so it's not in something like a gorgeous woodland or seaside setting, which is the only real reason I stop short of a five-star rating. But for sure, I'd happily drive a half hour out of my way to have a couple of beers here again. My rating scale: 1 - Just don't 2 - You'll survive, but there are better choices close by 3 - Good choice if you're in the area 4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here 5 - I'd try to convince my wife to drive an hour just to come here

We went to this bar on a bachelorette weekend trip and let me tell you we had the most fun at this…read moreplace all weekend! The regulars were so nice, we met the new owner Jen who was amazing and so was her daughter who was working behind the bar. The cook Jess was so amazing to all of us (even after multiple cocktails and shots) The karaoke dj was so superb and even had an amazing voice himself. He got us all singing and dancing. If you're looking for a good time with great people, drinks and bar food definitely check out Richonis!

Wings and drinks…read more Good wings, and a reasonably priced burger which I found very flavorful and tender. Not the largest you will find, but a great deal..The fish and chips is also good on Fri. Some other good sandwiches available as well. No frills. Too many decorations hanging off everything are annoying.. . You will be in for a treat if you eat at the bar and Michael is working. He's the best and has a cult-like following. Thanks

They were so warm, kind and welcoming. It really is a judgement free pub! The establishment is English themed with lots of British decor and I loved every bit of it!!!! It's chic, modern and cozy. They have a great beer list and they rotate their beers weekly. It's a bar and social club. It appeared there were regulars there and people knew one another. I wish I lived in the area because it would be my local place! I LOVE that they show music videos on a screen as it plays in the bar.

Beer'd Brewing Company is a craft brewery that opened in Stonington, Connecticut in November 2012…read more It was founded by husband and wife Aaron Simoncini and Precious Putnam. After enrolling in a class entitled "Beers of the World" in college, Simoncini became very interested in craft beer and soon began homebrewing. It was during this time that he gained the nickname "Beer'd". Eventually with his now-wife Putnam, Simoncini set out to open his own brewery. The couple set up shop at the Velvet Mill in Stonington. The historic building was originally home to the American Velvet Company, which operated from 1892 to 1996. Today it is a multipurpose building that is home to a thriving community of small businesses and artist studios. When Beer'd originally opened in the mill, they had just a 100-barrel system. The brewery quickly became notable for their small-batch high quality IPAs. In 2018, Beer'd opened a secondary facility at the Airport Business Park in Groton. This new 12,000-sq-ft space expanded their production capacity to 6,000 barrels. An adjoining 60-seat taproom (dubbed "Beer'd Brewing @ The Silo") opened at the Groton facility in January 2020. To differentiate the two taprooms, the original location in Stonington is now often referred to as "Beer'd Brewing @ The Mill". I recently visited Beer'd @ The Silo. Although they are one of my favorite Connecticut breweries and I've visited their Mill Taproom multiple times, this was my first visit to the Silo Taproom. Unlike the OG taproom which is more family-friendly, the Silo Taproom is intended to be exclusively for the 21+ crowd. It's a pretty nice space too. I pulled up a seat at the bar and looked over the draught menu. Throughout my visit, I enjoyed short pours of "You Like 'A Da Juice" (New England IPA), "Matter of Time" (New England IPA), "Roulette" (Russian Imperial Stout), and "Heavy Weight-Of-Sound" (Triple IPA). They were all excellent, but the last one was my favorite! I'm honestly not sure which taproom I prefer. If you've got little ones or furry friends with you, then head to the Mill. If you prefer a more adult exclusive experience, then head to the Silo. Either way, I plan on enjoying Beer'd beers for years to come!

Went here for an after work going away gathering. We were the only ones in the place (at first),…read morebut others funneled in while we were there. Absolutely LOVED the beer choices, as did everyone I was with. I would say Beer'd has the largest selection of REALLY good beers. Generally I find it hard to experience more than 1-2 beer options that I like at any local brewery. (They brew their own right there). Nice job! They should advertise it more, especially as a place for folks who just want to hang out with friends. ! I have been to their summer event with food trucks and games and tatoo artists, and it was a really fun event. Can't wait for another one! Also try their location in Stonington at the Velvet Mill. They have lots of great events there, and it can get lively because of the other businesses inside (including food.)
