9 Best Beer Bars near Stratford

“Amazing! I found this place due to a well placed sign in a closed Starbucks parking lot. Best coffee and friendliest people in the area hands down, from black coffee to specialty drinks and pastries everything is top tier. Strongly recommend getting a blueberry muffin and cold brew coffee! The space is well decorated with local art“

“Conveniently located right across the street from the brewery, they are serving up some great food and drink options. They have a smaller selection of beer on tap than the actual taprooms but still serve them nonetheless. Also, great cocktails such as this delicious spicy Margarita pictured.They have kiosks to order on, and then the food and drinks are delivered straight to your table. Super friendly staff too!“

“The receptionist from my job brought in the Shelton Business Paper and told me about a new pizza place that was opening in Shelton. She knows I love pizza so she brought it into work to share it with me. If you follow me then you know my kids and I love pizza so we had to visit. Upon entering the restaurant, my daughter and I first noticed how clean the restaurant was. The first thing that pops out at you is the animated wall print on the wall. I loved the fact that it was bold, bright colored, but not too much to overwhelm the customers. We we're greeted as soon as we entered the restaurant and I even met the owner. He gave me a tour of the restaurant since it was my first time visiting. There are three interlocking restaurants that he owns which is Parker Pizza, Fatty Patty, and Parker's Eatery and Bar. As a customer, you can finish your pizza and walk towards the back of the restaurant and have a drink at Parker's Eatery and Bar. What a cool idea!! Parker Pizza also has self serve beer machines in the restaurant if you like beer. My daughter and I ordered a cheese pizza with half pepperoni. The pizza was thin and the cheese pull was the best. The pizza was a little oily but the flavor was definitely there. The sauce was flavorful and the crust had that buttery taste but in my opinion the crust was too thin. All in all, it was a good pizza. The customer service was excellent as I got a tour of the restaurant and the young gentleman that was are server was great. Great attitude and very pleasant. The pizza is good, the atmosphere is great, and they provided great customer service.“

“My friend & I were in the area and stopped in for the first time. The staff were super friendly & attentive. We were able to be cozy on the couches and ordered wine flights - loved the variety! The cheese box was also so good to pair with the flights. We were full on wine & cheese. Such a cozy vibe for local drinks & a wine down. Will definitely be returning!“

“Hard to find, worth the search!Tucked in on Donnelly Walk, JB Perceval's is the cocktail spot to find. Great cocktails, in a great venue with a great staff. Perfect combination. Humphrey Bogart greets you as you enter this throwback to comfort and great drinks. Small bites are available and they are very good too.What a contrast to the more casual, college crowd bars and restaurants nearby. J.B.'s is an adult oasis of flavor infused drinks served in great glassware by attentive folks in a great spot.Cheers!“

“The Bridge House offers a strong, upscale food menu with a focus on seafood. The apps and entrees are well presented and taste great. The lobster rolls were hands down the best item of the afternoon. Our only complaint is that we would like to see a stronger, local beer offering.“

“Cannot say enough! 3rd time visiting CT and stopped here. Food is delicious. Brussel sprouts, sweet potato fries, wings, pizza, salad…everything was great. Servers are friendly. I do suggest the beer flight for tasting a few! High recommend!“

“We've eaten here a bunch of times before this night. We chose the Local Kitchen on this night because we knew that we could enjoy some good food at the bar and watch the NY Rangers game. It's not a "sport's bar" but they have TV'S all around the bar. The bartender put the Rangers game on for us when we asked. My dad was in the mood for some comfort food and ordered the grilled cheese and a very delicious bowl of tomato soup. I know that the soup was really good because I tasted it. I ordered a very nice salad and added seared tuna. The tuna wasn't one of the options on the menu but I asked and they didn't disappoint. Everything was perfect, but then enjoying some food while watching the Rangers game with my dad always is.Vegetarian options: Not lot's of vegetarian choices but enough.Dietary restrictions: Just ask and your meal can be prepared to suit any dietary restrictions.“

“Holy Gluten free options! Happened to stop by here on a road trip with my daughter. Both of us have celiac disease. The find me.gluten free app led us here and we were not disappointed. The fish and chips were delicious! They have a dedicated fryer. Definitely would stop again when in CT!!Dietary restrictions: Had a lot of GF options! Dedicated fryer?“
