    Pretzel Flight
    Danielle P.

    Let me start off by saying this is more of a bar, than restaurant. While there are tables in both the "restaurant" area and bar area, it has an if you're looking for a drink and maybe want to eat too we do that, but it's not the first thing you think about. My husband and I were expecting a restaurant from what the reviews said. If you're looking for bar bites with your drinks then this is ideal. My husband I don't really drink often, so this wasn't for us. We ordered mozzarella sticks, and pretzel bite flight for apps, they were tasty. I got a chicken caesar wrap, and my husband had the chicken finger platter. My wrap was okay, my husband didn't enjoy the chicken fingers (more breading than chicken). Given the atmosphere, and average food, I highly doubt I'd return to this establishment.

    My daughter and I were in the mood for wings and was suggested to check out the Pub awhile ago and heard there wings were very good. If you like wings give this pub a try. They are very crispy and tasty. It's in our local area and 1st time for everything. They have a variety of 13 different sauces to choose from and our server was very helpful and pleasant. I also tried the tuna melt which was very good. They serve it with lettuce and tomato but I opted out on the tomato's as I'm not a fan of them. The sandwich comes with fries and for only $8. Prices here are very reasonable and they also have bands playing on the weekend. I think they serve food until 11pm. Great place to check out.

    $3 breakfast with purchase of a beverage!

    FREE BREAKFAST with the purchase of an alcoholic beverage??!! Sign us up!!! Fast friendly service and a very tasty breakfast! My husband got the BLT which was $2.50 with the purchase of a beverage, and I got the breakfast and added sausage, for a grand total of $3 for my meal. We are not locals, just in the area, and we were greeted and served very promptly and treated like friends. Also this place is deceivingly large inside, from the outside it looked tiny. Definitely worth it!

    Back in the olden days we used to hit this place. It was next to the bowling alley and was known as J.Fitches pub. Walk in there now and it's pretty much the same vibe. No complaints here, I liked J Fitches too. Deep fried green beans with a wasabi dip. Pretzel bites. Deep fried corn nuggets. The apps were up to snuff. Had a BLT. Tasted like a BLT, and the kettle chips on the side rocked. The weakest link? That would be the wings. On the sog side, tossed about in a mediocre sauce. Crisp em up guys. Ambience wise we had an older crowd. A live band of rotating bandmates was playing Stevie NIcks and Johnny Cash songs on the loud side, which was ok because we dont want the older crowd nodding out in their beer. The waitstaff and crew were friendly, fast ,and efficient, making everyone feel welcome. I could see coming back with a crew of our own and pounding a few Helles Awaits brews, maybe play a game of pool, and grab a guitar and jump in with the band. Go there.

    I came here with a group of friends after a wedding because it was pretty close to the hotel where my friends were staying and they had a band. We piled around a small table in the bar and a waitress came right over to take drink and food orders. She then located a large table in the dining area and suggested we could sit there and she'd bring our order over. The band was great, and they brought my friend on stage to play the tambourine with them which totally made her night and was pretty amusing for us. I tried to find them on social media, but no luck. We had a lot of fun and never had to worry about refilling our drinks because our waitress was very attentive

    We are always on the lookout for good places to go for breakfast and Oscar's in South Windsor on…read moreSullivan Avenue was a wonderful find. I think it is relatively new (change from another restaurant in the same location)? Plenty of parking, both in front & in the back of the building. There is an outside patio that will be nice to use when the weather is a little warmer. Inside, the space is good sized, with both booths & tables. Our server was very nice, friendly and welcoming. Food was very good. Stronger coffee (which I prefer). My husband & I both had omelettes. The omelettes are made with 3 eggs & come with toast & potatoes. We always ask to have the potatoes cooked a little crispier and they were good. Prices were good. I noticed that there are gluten free items on the menu too. We will be back.

Indoor (two sides, one w bar) and outdoor seating (in nice weather). So, I tried the cheeseburger with a side of fries. Advertised as 8 ozs. It was very good, not great. Definitely a patty, and also did not have that charbroiled taste. Bun was substantial, and held the cb well. Fries were very good. For me, the price point was slightly high, more in line with what a pub might charge. Lots of choices on the menu, and some interesting breakfast options. I also liked the happy hour listings. Service very good. So, overall, I am a fan. 4 stars

The place looked spacious and with a lot of light, it looked clean and they seemed to have a nice selection of wines (for those that like it) , they were displayed for people to see, which I thought looked very nice. I went to the restroom to wash my hands and I found it odd that there was only 1 restroom for the size of the restaurant. Our waiter was nice, he took our order and we were excited. The food took a VERY long time, we were starving, and we had kids with us so that wasn't good. Some of our orders were wrong and so unfortunately we had to wait even longer for the right meal. We didn't order alcohol but we did older a couple of mocktails. I was SUPER excited for them because that's something I always appreciate at a restaurant. I'm sad to say that they were AWFUL!! straight up syrup, not bubbly (some were supposed to have soda in them) not sweet, simply not enjoyable at all, I ended up switching it for a simple club soda, I figured it was a safe bet. When my food came out, it was ok, I had the avocado toast, and it was forgettable, my sister had the chicken and waffles and now THAT was the meal to get, it was large in portion and that chicken was beyond tasty!! My other sister has the lomito sandwich with the chips and it was good, something missing but she enjoyed it. The rest of the food were burgers and they were ok, the kids had burgers and Mac and cheese and they were not tasty according to the children's disinterest in barely touching their food (and they love cheeseburgers). I'm always willing to bypass certain things as long as customer service delivers BUT unfortunately they fell short. We were celebrating an engagement and so we were all very happy and in a great mood, when suddenly workers around us were cleaning up the neighboring tables, and even sweeping very close to us. We thought the place was possibly closing? (Even though it was only 2:15pm). I asked if they were closing and they said that they close the restaurant from 3-4 so their employees can go eat .... I'm not against giving them a break BUT, it really felt like they were kicking us out, we felt pressured to eat fast and wrap it up, not a good feeling, when you are in the zone of happiness. It was our first time there so, I would have appreciated if they would have informed us that the restaurant takes a little break in between and then we would have decided if we wanted to stay or go elsewhere. They did bring a little dessert and 2 mocktails for the newly engaged which was nice, I'll give them that. Overall, I don't think the food and experience was worth me coming back or recommending this place, I'm sure there's other much better places.

And GPS brought me to Ranch House in East Hartford. This is just to tell you, that if you want the OG that has been open since 1950, you need to go to the one in Windsor, which is conveniently located next to 91.

    I've been to Elicit Brewing Company in Manchester multiple times -- probably around six times at…read morethis point -- and every single visit has been such a fun experience. This place is HUGE and has so many different vibes all in one building, which I absolutely love. The drink selection is one of my favorite parts. They have so many beers on tap, plus cider flights, sour flights, beer flights -- all different types of flights if you're like me and enjoy trying a little bit of everything. And if beer isn't your thing, they have cocktails too, so everyone in your group can find something they like. The food is just as impressive. The Philly cheesesteak egg rolls are AMAZING -- crispy, flavorful, and honestly one of the main reasons I keep coming back. The burgers are delicious, and the desserts? Oh my goodness. The deep-fried Oreos are next-level. Atmosphere is where Elicit really stands out. There's the big open beer hall feel inside, but also different sections depending on what kind of night you're looking for. It can be chill and casual earlier in the evening, then turn into more of a going-out/club vibe later on. There's a cocktail bar upstairs, and as the night goes on the energy really shifts. In the summer they have bands (sometimes outside), a full outdoor bar, a fireplace, two inside bars, a little quieter lounge area with couches, and even a small game room. Bathrooms upstairs and downstairs make it convenient, and you can rent rooms for private parties too. I also like how the food ordering works -- they give you a pager and you pick up your food when it's ready. Tables are first come, first serve though, so definitely save your spot because you can lose your seat if you're not careful, especially on busy nights. It does get packed on weekends, so I recommend getting there early if you want a good table for your group. But overall, it's one of my go-to spots in Manchester when I want good drinks, great food, and a fun atmosphere. Definitely a place I'll keep going back to -- and those Philly cheesesteak egg rolls will always bring me back.

So I was super excited when I saw they were hosting a galentines day drag brunch !! The drag show was amazing !!! But I was disappointed that there was no BRUNCH food . You can't have a brunch show and no brunch . They did offer a regular menu to order from . The other problem is that there were no servers so we had to order food and go downstairs pick up our own food and. Then bring it back upstairs... which is very annoying if you are going there for a show and have to leave to get food ! Not to mention there was an issue doors were suppose to open at 10 am so we got there early to get seats settle in and order food . However the doors open well after 10:30 . And possibly an issue with the bartenders ( not being available) but they were able to figure that out thankfully by the 11 am show . So a lot of issues .. the show itself was amazing . The food was okay . I did end up getting the grilled chicken sandwich which was good ( nothing amazing ) and the fries were plain no seasoning . 3/5 for the food . The drinks were good ! I ordered the strawberrry Hugo spritz that had elderflower in it which I really enjoyed all flavours were balanced equally (4/5 ) and then I tried the peach hard palmer which I was not a fan off (3/5 ) Drag show 10/10 ! ( highly recommend ) I wish they advertised it a just a drag show and not a brunch + show ( since there was no brunch options ) ! And also a very limited Valentine's Day cocktails ( only one option of a red velvet martini) Overall fun event but need to plan events better if they do plan on hosting and consider adding food specific for the event ( or not advertise as brunch .. if you don't plan on offering brunch food ) !
