Discover Restaurants offering the best Pub food in New London, Connecticut, United States. The city of New London, Connecticut, has been an important port since the Revolutionary War, when it served as a base for American privateers raiding British Ships. In the 19th century, the revenues brought into the city by whalers helped build what now forms the city's charming center, filled with historic homes, taverns and shops. The masts of tall ships can still be seen passing through the harbor, the home of Coast Guard ships and the site of the annual Sailfest summer celebration.

The staff is quite friendly and our group has been there several times for dinner because of the local feel and mostly good food. The menu is terrific, but it appears to be good based on whoâs cooking that day. If they could be more consistent, this could be a great place to eat and drink.Plus: the wings are to die for, the quesadilla is yum, good portion size, great pizza, live music, spacious, complimentary pool tablesMinus: sometimes the food is great, other times not so much (dry, wrong order) Steak sandwich delish but occasionally will find tough gristle in it (happened x2 so Iâm done ordering that).

My wife's plan was to find local restaurants that provided great food and a great atmosphere. She found them both right here. You should call ahead for reservations and for balcony seating. The beverage is a Brazilian Old Fashion. Edamame is nicely spicy with mint leaves and seemingly no salt. Really tasty spicy Tofu. I am not sure of the seafood dish, but my ordered it and thought it was great as well. This was our second visit and I can't wait for the next.
7. Dutch Tavern
Reviewed By kenlion
A quiet little pub, to have a beer and a burger on your lunch break. Good service, food came out fast burger was cooked just how I wanted it. For a small place, they have a fine selection of beer and a few different kinds of wine. They get packed at night, for sports games and news events, I can tell that they have found their niche in the community.

Went in here after a disappointing visit to the Buckley House. Ordered wings, which were very good! However, a place that has wings in the name of the restaurant should not serve a container of shelf stable Ken's blue cheese dressing, and should never announce to a customer we are out of celery!!!! Seriously wings without celery?!?! The reason we went in was for WINGS! The service was fantastic, the atmosphere....is Asian?! However, my suspicion that the space used to be the Asian restaurant next door was confirmed. Maybe remove the pagoda? All in all, the food and service were good....but they need to up their game a bit!

Bank Street near the New London waterfront has become quite the bar and foodie destination in Southeastern Connecticut. Having read great reviews of 385 Bank I bought an email discount deal for the place, knowing I would use it on one of my jaunts between Connecticut and Cape Cod. I sat at one end of the fairly small bar that was mostly occupied by patrons of a "girls' night out." There was my entertainment. While I quietly listened to their boisterous laughs over some risque board games they had played, I relaxed with a couple of 365 Negronis made to perfection by Robin, the fun and friendly bartender. For food I started with a bowl of their lobster bisque that, to my mind, needed nothing extra. It was perfectly seasoned with small but plentiful chunks of lobster. Then came my main course: a generous serving of cioppino. Mussels, shrimp and scallops adorned a plate of fettuccine with a spicy but not overpowering marinara sauce. One of the woman patrons took time out from her laugh-fest to drool at my entree from afar. If you want a bar with quality food, a fun crowd and a skilled bartender who sets a delightfully comfortable atmosphere, try this place. I'll be back.

We went to Dev's for tapas on Valentines Day. The food is incredible and the price is right! Everything we had was awesome. The ribs had a wonderful smoky flavor, the beer cheese fries tasted gourmet, the Scooter melt was delicious- it had flavors I would never expect to go together. The Red Dragon Noodle Bowl was to die for. It really stole the show. The flavors are authentic and are presented beautifully. I highly suggest the cheesesteak bruschetta also. Honestly everything we had was a home run. The decor is modern, clean, and the ambiance was comfy and upscale. The owner came to every table and chatted without being overbearing. She even gave us a hug before we left, what a sweet woman- she truly enhanced our visit. This really is a hidden gem in New London, and I can't wait to go back this weekend for brunch.

We like this place in general. We have gone several times to hear live music on the weekends and to order drinks. I think is a well-managed, spacious, and reliable part of the New London scene. Most recently we went for a celebration dinner. We ordered 2 seafood entrees- a sampler platter and snapper. They were good, but we both felt they were a bit overly seasoned and cooked with too much butter. I mean, butter makes food taste delicious, but in this case it seemed like too much of a good thing. Most people say you can't go wrong with their pizzas. I will go back, and I do recommend it.

Hot Rod Cafe is a fun and friendly neighborhood bar and restaurant featuring 24 kinds of beer on tap and 24 kinds of wings. Great water view and service!

I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at Hot Rod. Nothing to look at from the outside but cozy inside and a wonderful outdoor deck with water views. All three of us tatted our meals as very good. Reasonable prices, great service, good variety. My friend always finds it hard to get Prosecco but they had it. My rose wine frozen slush is was outstanding. The chicken wings were amazing with 20+ sauces from which to choose. Their wraps also were very good. The only down side is on street parking and finding a space can be a challengeonwhen you go.
