Unless you take the tour and see these islands with their homes you would not believe living on an island in the Long Island Sound was possible. Great day trip. Bring the kids - not babies

Pulling into the scenic streets of Branford, we came upon Stony Creek Brewery and had to “hop” on board. We were escorted to a lovely outdoor patio area, filled with scenic views and Adirondack chairs a plenty. Our server Ferg came to us with supposed smiles (he was wearing a mask after all) and pale calves. His friendly disposition was extremely welcoming, and he seemed like the kind of server you’d want to be your best friend. In fact, I’m still hoping that’s the case. My friend and I sipped on a Sun Juice and Cherry Zinger Sour, both equally delicious with hints of nostalgic Luden’s cough drops. If you’re lucky, you might even be able to spot the typo on the can (mums the word until you visit for yourself ????). Overall we had a truly magical experience with the staff at Stony Creek. From being awarded a buffalo sauce dip for our pizza to a luau umbrella for my frozé, Stony Creek is where you need to be this summer. Especially with our man Ferg. Love ya, love ya long time!

If you’re looking for great beer and amazing service then this is the place! There are always new beers coming out so be on the look out! The venue always has things going on so check their Facebook page for activities like food trucks and live music! At night there are fire pits to gather around to stay warm outside or you can play some corn hole! You can bring food from outside places as well! Overall my favorite place to chill and drink in Branford!!!
