Stopped into Monroe Social in Monroe, CT on 9/28/25. Solid spot overall -- I'd give it …read more The crab cakes were the standout. Two good-sized Maryland-style cakes, nicely seared and packed with crab (not filler). They came over a bed of fresh arugula and parmesan with a lemony kick and chili aioli that tied it together really well. The fish and chips were classic -- a big, flaky piece of wild cod fried golden. Fries were solid, tartar sauce hit the spot. Tried the crispy chicken sandwich too. Juicy chicken, cheddar, bacon, pickles, and the same chili aioli they used on the crab cakes. Really tasty combo, and the fries on the side were crisp. Overall: good food, friendly vibe, and worth a return visit.

We also ordered the coconut shrimp w/ sweet chili sauce and that was definitely my favorite part of my meal. So delicious! Especially the sauce! Entree: I ordered the bacon cheese burger, it was good. Could have used a bit more seasoning on the meat and the bacon could have been cooked longer, but I did enjoy it. The French fries were delicious. Ambiance: cute little bar style. Very clean. Loved that there was a gentleman there singing. Not sure if this is just a weekend thing. We came on a Saturday. Lots of different types of people there. Very chill and cozy vibes. Loved the dimmed lighting. Service: sadly I forgot our servers name but wow was he great! Very patient, kind, and funny. Very attentive. Overall the experience was great. I would 100 percent come back and it's definitely worth checking out!

The place was packed which I thought was good because it was a sign of a good spot. But we noticed most people were at the bar. The server was friendly but obviously overworked. Basically brought us water and took our order. Never checked up on us during the meal. Food was very good to be fair and the portions were adequate. We just felt it was nothing great. They just took our order, dumped our food and that was it goodbye. Plus it was so loud it was just not enjoyable. There are so many places to eat in the area for great relaxing meal but this isn't one of them. We go out weekly but will not be back here.

Gentle Reader, sometimes I get my reviews slightly off, so I revisit and try again. This order was…read moreto go, but it was yummy: a double burger with cheese, bacon jam, and onions. 4 of 5 because while the burger was tasty and we loved building our own add-ons with the easy to navigate online ordering, we prefer a crispy smash burger (no crisp in this but lots of flavor). The fries and tots were great--5/5 but next time I'd pass on the tot cheese sauce at the bottom of the dish. We'll also request foil wrapping inside the to go box to retain the heat. The chicken wrap with pesto mayo was 4/5-tasty, especially with the pesto mayo on the side. More chicken would have made this a five star sandwich BLT fries are a crowd pleaser--I don't get it because the ingredients cool the fries down too much for me, but my family disagrees, so 4.5/5 Cheese steak--4/5 because it was tasty but the bun was so lightly toasted we couldn't discern it as toasted. Gluten-free bun on the smash burger was outstanding--thin and flavorful. This burger had honey mustard, raw onions, lettuce and tomatoes. Not crispy but super satisfying to the consumer. 5/5 Service is always good here. We'll be back for more. Yelp doesn't allow half stars, so I'll land on a 4 star rather than a 5. It's close and Fryborg is worth at least one try.

Although a part of noble it's adorable has its own seating area and gives real New England coffee shop vibes even in the space it's in. I got an iced latte and Caesar chicken wrap. The latte camp quick and was very good. They have multiple options for flavors and specials for coffee like gingerbread latte or peppermint and eggnog! I'm stuck in my ways and got no flavor but I know people out there who do love flavors would come here in a heart beat knowing this. The wrap was really fresh and didn't take that long to wait for it to come out. I enjoyed my latte and wrap in there seating area and felt very relaxed. The baristas were cheerful and polite.

Their menu is huge, featuring acai bowls, fresh sandwiches and wraps, and fun bagels like this cheddar jalapeño. The drinks are next-level. I'm obsessed with their Hailey Bieber smoothie dupe, Dubai chocolate coffee, and the seasonal fall flavors. Friendly staff, convenient location, and so many delicious options make this spot well worth the stop.

Good news is you can ask a order from dinner menu Our bad luck was two parties the same afternoon. So very noisy In terms of vino. I need to be sad as they discontinued the Annabella but haven't removed it from the vine list. NOISE NOTE: Unfortunately we came early for the first time and ran into two parties so the amplitude was loud and similar to what I remember ORDER NOTE: I ordered a side of broccoli rape from the dinner menu that they messed up so I'll remove a star this time PRICE - really the same rating adjusted for inflation.

The price is reasonable. The place is clean and averagely noisy. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a solo night like me, a date night or a family outing.

Between the shriveled "hot dog" that was 90% bun, the instant potatoes, and the coleslaw served in literal hospital pill cups, I wasn't sure if I was getting dinner or being med-evaced. They even managed to screw up the pancakes, which is impressive, considering they're essentially griddle-fried flour. A filthy, tasteless disaster. Save your money and eat a few ketchup packets instead; they'll have more seasoning and better hygiene.
