Ok selections. Never find anything special. Wine selection is better. The staff is rather droll. Never a hello and a grunt goodbye.

Owner is incredibly rude. No one I'd ever give business to. I'll be going to Oak Barrel instead where the girl Katerina is always friendly

First time trying NewSylum Brewing Co. in Newtown, CT…read more NewSylum Brewing Co., opened its doors in 2020, the 15-barrel microbrewery sits on the historic campus of Fairfield Hills, a former psychiatric hospital. The name "NewSylum" cleverly bridges "Newtown" with the historical definition of "asylum" meaning a sanctuary or place of refuge. The taproom is housed in a beautifully restored, historic red brick colonial-style building. Customers can enjoy full table service inside the 9,000-square-foot space or relax in the extensive, dog-friendly outdoor seating areas. I've heard this area is full of paranormal activity if you're into that. We recommend the following wood-fired pizzas: -Hot Oil pie pizza -Pepperoni pizza -Korean BBQ pizza -Hot Italian pizza -Giant Pretzel Drinks: -Frozen Mudslide drink -Counting the days IPA We had excellent service and really enjoyed seeing historic photos of the old asylum room before building got renovated. Check it out when in the area! Happy Yelping :)

I had time to kill and was next door so I swung by for a beer with the intention of buying a few…read moreto-go cans also. Waitress came by within 2 minutes and took my order, then disappeared for 20 mins. I flagged her down and she finally brought over the beer that was sitting on the counter for 20 mins. I said this would be my only beer, and I wanted to order two cans to go, either with her or at the bar. She said with her, but to wait until I was closer to finish to my with my beer. Seeing how there was only one waitress in the entire room, this seemed like a bad idea, but I said OK. She never came back. Why is there only one waitress? Why am I sitting there with an empty beer watching her close out 10 cards per table? Why did Ignore my gut and allow her to reject my suggestion to make both our lives easier by ordering and closing out? I finally got up and closed out at the bar, not getting my cans. Can't be held hostage by incompetence.

This place is GREAT! Super friendly and assisting staff, beautiful grounds and MANY options as to…read morehow you want to do their place. Per my last sentence, be sure you go online and KNOW what you want to do and what you want to spend! You can 'easily' spend a lot of money here - on the other hand, if you know what you're doing you can have a nice afternoon/evening here at a reasonable cost. Again, go on the website beforehand. I can't stress this enough! Their wine is expensive as are 'some' seating options so be advised. We were actually there 3x's this spring/summer. Went to a big party under one of their large structured tents, then we had a small party under an umbrella table, and then went up again this past weekend and just sat in chairs and caught a sunset and amazing dinner from Greek Cave food truck. The food trucks (always 2) vary, but they list whose there on the website along with any entertainment (extra cost). Very annoying is the fact you can't call there! You have to text or email and their response(s) are NOT always timely! Unprofessional that you can't call and speak to someone.

Unfortunately, this was not a place I'd want to return to for wine. Allowing people to smoke cigars…read moreoutside made the experience unpleasant, especially when you're trying to enjoy wine. The hostess station was also unnecessarily complicated and honestly felt a little crazy to navigate.Also if their is a band insidedont go inside. So unbelievable loud!!!!!! On top of that, the wine itself was not very good. Overall, between the cigar smoke, frustrating reservation system, and disappointing wine, this just isn't a place I would recommend if you're looking for a good wine experience.
