A fine selection of books and very friendly staff. I really enjoyed my visit. Used books are very reasonably priced.

Old Platform 6 - A French bistro nestled in Waterbury...

Old Platform 6

This is a hidden gem. A French bistro nestled in the Waterbury suburbs. Live music, a menu that…read morechanges and is made with a local friend knowledge and flair and a friendly and caring service team. The furniture, lighting and set ups are ess eclectic and stylish. We just really enjoy coming here. It is BYOB, and I brought some bourbon and to my pleasant surprise there were large ice cubes so enjoy my drink. The ambiance works for us!

"The bridal shower I had planned for my daughter on June 30th was such a disaster. Caroline was…read morenothing but rude and downright nasty to my daughter's very sweet and respectful bridesmaids. She forced a few of our guests, seniors, who arrived 15 minutes early, to stand in the parking lot on a very hot and humid evening. Her job as the owner was to make our guests feel welcomed and comfortable, neither of which she accomplished. To add insult to injury, the two small ac units, which would be suitable for a small bedroom, provided NO comfort at all. The temperature in that place was unbearable! Caroline bombarded me with passive aggressive, negative comments throughout the evening which I tried so hard not to let bother me. Her final performance of the evening was her demand that we take our garbage with us! I WAS HUMILIATED! I was not only robbed of thousands of dollars, (yes, thousands, for 42 people, and we brought our OWN alcohol and food) but robbed of the special evening I had planned for my daughter, her dear friends, amazing family and her soon to be family, on what should have been a memorable evening Four weeks after the disappointing event that still haunted me, I sent Ms. Bossetti an email expressing my concerns. I have never received a response from her. Watertown is a small town and stories get shared and stories travel, so I'm surprised others haven't written their reviews. I wish they had, as I would not have had to waste my time writing this and my daughter would have had beautiful memories of her shower. I hope no mother will have to experience the disappointment I have"

Titanium Theatre Event Hall - Elegant table set up in our Crystal room for a wedding with beautiful crystal handmade white lanterns

Titanium Theatre Event Hall

I had a very good experience.... After struggling to find a last minute Hall for a reception after…read moremy uncles funeral I posted on a local town site seeking help. The owner personally reached out to me within the hour willing to help us out. (On a sunday later in evening on top of it) We rented the "Crystal room" it was very clean, up to date and the staff was so friendly. Our funeral services ended up ending an hour sooner than we thought it was going to and the owner let us start arriving early. Such a great experience after a sad morning. I would recommend this Hall fo anyone looking to have a wonderfull experience. And will be booking with them in the future.

Contractual Breaches & Missing Items * Dessert Service Failure: epic failures! Banquet team started at the top of the cake cutting and serving to guests! Do they not know that the top is saved for the 1st anniversary! * Dessert and cake plates were explicitly included in the first paragraph of the contract. However, they were missing from the tables. When brought to the coordinator's (Denise) attention, the oversight was incorrectly dismissed as "not included." * Incorrect Table Settings: The tables lacked essential silverware for the guest count, and no napkins were provided on the tables. * Linen Discrepancy: While charged a dedicated fee for linens, this did not include standard linen napkins--an industry anomaly that was not clearly communicated.Table cloths were wrinkled too! * Exorbitant Paper/Plastic Fees: A $400 charge was assessed for dollar store paper and plastic plates, which did not align with the value or quality expected for a formal event in the contract that stated porcelain plates. Bar & Beverage Management * Severe Stock Deficiencies: The bar ran out of standard inventory (Coors Light) within the first 20 minutes of operation. Furthermore, the bar lacked basic mixers, offering only orange and cranberry juice, with no standard options like pineapple or grapefruit juice. * Inadequate Staffing and Speed: The event was severely understaffed with a single bartender. Because the bar was poorly stocked, the bartender frequently had to leave the station to retrieve inventory, creating excessively long lines and wait times for guests. * Product Quality: Beverages were notably watered down, representing poor value for the premium prices charged. This was not open bar. These beverages were paid for by the guests. * I paid $9 for a serving of Bailey's that was only about 2 inches in the bottom of the glass. I took 2 sips and left it on the table to dance. When I got back to the table it was gone. Table next to mine said the staff came and took all the plastic bar cups off the table. Facilities & Sanitation * Inadequate Restroom Capacity: The venue provided only a single operational ladies' restroom stall for a 90-guest event, causing unacceptable delays for guests. Especially when there was also another party going on in the venue and their guests also had to use the same bathroom with our guests! Unacceptable! * Poor Maintenance and Upkeep: The men's restroom completely lacked hand soap, and the electronic hand dryer was broken and physically detaching from the wall, presenting both a safety and hygiene issue. * All the mirrors in the place were dusty and filthy! * The floors are uneven throughout the venue and present a safety hazard especially for the elderly.
