I've been to this venue a few times for different events, (comedy or a concert) and all times have…read morebeen very pleasant. The seats are comfortable and the view from the seats on the ground level are all decent. I've been where we sat at the last row on the ground level and I've visited where we had seats closer to the stage. The lines aren't crazy long, and the security works pretty quickly to move things right along. They do sell cocktails and snacks. I love that this venue is right in the middle of the city with plenty of public tranportation options. The fees have always been reasonable and cheaper if you pay at their box office. This is definitely a venue I would attend future events at based on my prior experiences.

Plusses and minuses seem to put Town Hall into a '3' category for me. The Plusses include seeing…read morea great show with great acoustics. Another plus is I like historic NYC, and seeing all the placques was like a history lesson. Don't pass up on reading them; many legends have graced the stage. The last plus would be well-trained and helpful staff. The minuses start to grow as the historic theater is an old theater, and the steps, bathroom situation, small and steep upper seating , small bar- lounge area etc, can actually distract from the overall experience. Go for the show, and be careful with your seat selection.

What a fantastic experience getting our marriage license! My fiancé and I showed up at 11:40am on a…read moreFriday. Ann Riebold the Assistant Town Clerk assisted us and was fabulous!!! She was extremely pleasant and a joy to speak with. She helped make the experience smooth and went above and beyond in my opinion offering her # in case anything happened (like spilling coffee on our license) the day of the wedding and we needed her assistance. That is truly the reason for this review, it is because of Ann. Neither my fiancé or I have ever been married before so we have nothing to compare this particular kind of experience to, but we both felt we got top notch service in this location. If getting married in Haddam, no doubt this part will be an excellent experience for you.

I normally wouldnt do a review of a town clerk especially on Yelp as they dont serve food. I felt…read morecompelled as someone clearly had a bad day and took it out on the town which I dont see how they were that bad. I dealt with them for almost a week straight no stop calling (by me) related to accessing records that are well over 100 years old. ALWAYS every call every person I spoke to not only was incredibly friendly but also went way above and beyond to save me the 110 mile drive to Groton so I didnt waste a trip if I didnt need to. I wish the town I live in was more like Groton. 1 star I dont by it....I see it was related to alleged corruption which I am sure it could be true but if you dont have bonafide facts to back it up then its just hot air.

Poor maintainance & dangerous drainage situation (i will happily update as to outcome) currently being discussed with course/Greens Keeper & town Engineer. Unlike other Central CT towns such as New Britain, Stanley Quarter golf course, concern for property owners is brushed off who are legally entitled to be heard & responded to when: water pours into their land & stone walls are being damaged, paid landscaping displaced! And constant tournaments w/mediocre golfers pop holes yrly into your homes siding, screens, at worst expensive glass windows. 2 wks ago, my eye was nearly put out when a golf ball bulleted into my glass bird feeder & blew it apart into my sea grasses. As the metal bottom dropped to the ground, i was scared thinking that couldve seriously hurt my head! There was a call made prior on request for a net at end of our land line marked by ol tall Cherry tree. We even asked for minimal reimbursement to have shared finance of the cost of a box of vinyl siding. Nope nope nope. Apparently, one must have an eye put out, a fractured skull or a river pour down (literally) from very poor drainage design between sand pit near hole #14 and oppo mound & sand pit. The Golf course is overseen by Parks & Rec Dept in Groton, Mr. Berry. The Greens Mgr/Keeper doesnt return calls, is surly & doesnt seem to like residents he's paid to take calls from if a serious issue thus you must call the supervisor, Director of P&R. This course sees enough fund-raising activities, tournament for maintenance of course should be considered. Dont get me wrong, im not here to just gripe. Theres the good too. A lovely view, some great course grass cutting staff, a wonderful restaurant, Par 4 on Plant St. Thats owned by town but rented to restaurant owner whos great.

In memory of Andrew…read moreand Billy The Clinton Town Hall was built back in 1936 with money donated by William Stanton Andrews. It is a lovely building in a great location that is a pleasure to visit. The inside has an absolutely gorgeous marble lobby with gold crown molding and several huge fountains that are extremely cool. A beautiful red tail stag is in the entrance of the main lobby and was donated in 1978 by Sturges Redfield. The stag was carved in Europe and has been in his family for over a century. Pretty impressive critter. The Town hall also contains the Clinton Historical Society Museum Room that has different exhibits of local history and the building also contains 5 working fireplaces and a 450 seat auditorium. Quite an impressive place. One thing that is missing are the kitties. For years the Town Hall had a lovely and friendly cat named Andrew but he eventually got old and passed on. He was replace by Billy, a rather plump but lovable feline that that also ended up leaving this world. I have heard they aren't going to get any new cats which is a shame. Being greating by Andrew or Billy was always a treat. The Clinton Town Hall is a cool place even without the kitties. A interesting place to pay taxes or do tedious government stuff. Everyone here is always friendly and will go out of their way to help. They even have some beautiful river views from the back and a kayak and canoe ramp by the dock. A very cool town hall that has so many cool and interesting things to do and look at.

So this is one of RI's most beautiful towns, and there are many beautiful towns here. Not far south of Providence, right on the water, with a good 30k people or so living here, including one of my best friends from college. Amazing food around here, very unique. What a wonderful corner of America this is. Not cheap, in fact quite expensive, but gorgeous, right by the water, lots of boats, and somewhere I'd consider living myself.

Town of Oyster Bay NY had a special weekend last week. Saturday May 31 was really the day to go…read morewhere everything was up and running from the reunion and reenactment of the Rough Riders to a boat trip in the afternoon at the dock Water front Center West End Avenu in the Park, to so many activities for the day. NOTE: do look up their website for exact details... I didn't. Dang**[. I had thought the reenactment was both days, not just Saturday. So, Sunday when I went nobody knew anything including the people at the dock house for an afternoon boat ride. However on a quiet June 1 Sunday I did get to see Teddy Roosevelt (actor) himself ,a very kind man, an enjoyable presentation from actor Patrick Falci( with help from his wife Joan at the slide projector) who was in the 1996 Rough Riders movie and 1997 Tv show with the same name. Note: if you're a history buff check it out! And a presentation from Head Librarian and curator Sue Sarna showing the - in the works - TR museum being build in N. Dakota( July 2026) a must see for buffs. Stopped by OB RR museum, Hive Market, Once upon a Stuffie, TR bully bar and Sweet tomatoes. It was the flip side for a quiet nice day in Oyster Bay.

I think it's wonderful that they hosts an event like this for the community. There was something for everyone, from local vendors and food trucks to activities, entertainment, and community organizations. Every vendor I stopped by was friendly, approachable, and happy to chat. One of the biggest highlights was seeing Alyssa Edwards perform. She's such a great entertainer, and it brought my sister so much joy to see her in person. It was exciting to have such a well known performer as part of a local community event. I also appreciated all of the free giveaways, including stickers, flags, and helpful community resources etc. Overall, the event was well organized, inclusive, and community focused. My sister and I had such a great time that we were already talking about coming back next year before the festival was even over.

I love this small town with a big heart! As I wandered thru the square in the center of town, I…read morefound myself wondering if this place was the inspiration for Stars Hollow? I've seen other towns that reminded of the Gilmore Girls... but this one had'em all beat! The gazebo, the diners, the bakery, the small market, the antique shops ... it's all here. And yes even more! The corner of Center St. and Main Street is lined with lovely shops and restaurants, a candy store (like Mr. Doosey owns), a post office and a library. The homes in the area are charming. Lots of Victorian styled houses with gingerbread trim. It's a true storybook town. Along the main highway, you'll find larger shops, box stores and chain restaurants, but I prefer the smaller boutiques, local places and diners. Even the railroad station is an architectural gem. In the square, there's also an historic cemetery worth a gander. I love visiting my hubby's family here and always look forward to exploring the area! On our last trip, we visited two covered bridges close by, and several out of town. There's also a nearby orchard, a dairy freeze, lots of gift shops and beautiful farmland. The history here is rich, as the town was founded in the 1600's. From the agriculture to the history to the architecture to the cozy local feel, you are bound to feel welcome in this adorable town with so much to offer!

They also have their own electricity provider which is pretty uncommon in Connecticut. Most of Connecticut is provided with electricity by the company Eversource. There are many industries located within the town, providing diverse employment options. When I went exploring the town, I found it very historic and charming. It's hilly and had quite a bit going on; restaurants, bars, vineyards, breweries, etc. I really enjoyed walking through the historic Center Street Cemetery. The library is one of the nicest libraries I've been to. Walking around downtown was enjoyable; plenty of sidewalks and it's pedestrian friendly. Overall, a fun town to explore and can't wait to go back.
