We stopped in for lunch. It’wasnt crowded, we got a nice wooden booth and checked out the interesting memorabilia while ordering. I ordered a burger with blue cheese, jalapeños and bacon. It was the best burger I’ve had in literally years. The burger was juicy and cooked exactly right and the bun wasn’t soggy. It was delicious! I didn’t care for the seasoned homemade chips that came with it, and they nicely made me up a fresh batch of unseasoned chips. My husband enjoyed his grilled chicken sandwich. He got a couple of 6 oz. beers just to try. A great place to kick back for an hour or so. Fabulous! Will be back.

The Dublin

Reviewed By NYC2VT

Didn’t know what to expect here, as we stopped on a whim. The place was busy and everyone was eating the prime rib, so that is what I ordered. It was really very good, only it was stone cold -which was a bummer. Potato, veggie, prices and service were all good.

Town Tavern

Reviewed By GloriaH119

We had an enjoyable lunch. They offer a very nice menu:appetizers, sandwiches, salads, pizza, dinners, drinks, and desserts. My husband and I shared a Caesar salad(small) and a small cheese pizza with mushrooms. The food was very fresh and tasty. The portion size were very generous too. In addition the service was very good too. We sat inside(two dining rooms) but they have nice outdoor seating too.

If you love beer & pretzels (like me)... this is your place. There is a great beer menu and lots of pretzels to choose from. It's possible to have pretzel dinner & dessert and walk away full & satisfied. It's a little small, but yummy.

Herd Restaurant

We had dinner last night at Herd as my husband wanted to visit Chris Barron, a bar tender, that he knew from Wallingford. Our dinner was early, 5:00 and our reservation really wasn’t needed. The bar became busy, but the dining room had just a few parties at that time. Our waitress, Nancy, was excellent. She was personable and efficient, timing our meal perfectly and checking on us a few times to be sure all was well. Happy Hour went until 7:00, so our glasses of wine were $5.00. My husband had the onion soup which was steaming hot and tasty and I ordered the eggplant frites which were good and enough to share for a small group. We brought some home. Next we had salads that were pretty large for a house salad. Mine had a bit too much dressing so next time I’d order the dressing on the side. Our meals were the rib eye steak and a special for the night, chicken Marsala. Both delicious and served with potatoes, mashed or sweet, and tiny green beans. The steak was large and done perfectly. We shared a dessert special of blueberry cheesecake that was light and fluffy. It was a excellent meal for two for a reasonable price. The dining room is a bit stark, aiming for a western ‘herd’ of cattle ambiance with unusual lighting, herding photos, and dark beams. It was a bit chilly where we sat as each time someone opened the door there was a breeze,even with heavy curtains to try to block it. So we’d request seating further back next time. Actually, the front faces Metro Square so it’s a bit tricky to find, but parking is very convenient. We chatted a few minutes with the bar tender, Chris and were glad we tried this new dining option. Give this restaurant a try!

Farrell's Restaurant

Reviewed By Diane D

We went to Farrell's Sunday night 11/11/2018 and never had such terrible food. We were a family party of six. I ordered the prime rib, which was awful, I think it was some other cut of beef that they passed off as prime rib. My husband ordered the clam roll special at $12.99. It came on a cut off roll to accommodate the 4 clams that was on the roll. Clams were awful. He complained to the waitress and she talked to the chef and he said the clams go by weight. He took $6.99 off the clam roll. We had a terrible appetizer of calamari worst we ever had. Ordered three margaritas. Our bill was$65.00.This was our first and last time at Farrell's restaurant.

Tavern at the Armory

Reviewed By Chambesy

The Tavern is bar and restaurant at the same time. While we were having dinner a large group came to drink at the bar. They were quite loud.We ordered the lamb and lobster ravioli and asked the waitress to choose two local beers for us. She served us a dark and a light beer, locally brewed. Both excellent. The lamb was cooked to perfection. I also liked the mashed potatoes that came with it and the undercooked string beans (better under than over cooked. But if you want all your customers to be happy maybe you should just cook them 1 minute more ;-). No room for desert. An herbal tea to finish the excellent meal.Service really friendly. Prices on the higher end for a bar meal.Thank you for your comments about your dining experience. We have just renovated the tavern and we are looking at ways to muffle the noise a bit like you experienced. We went from carpeting to all hardwood floors and there is more echoing. It is being addressed. I agree there is a fine line between under cooked / raw and overcooked and we try to be perfect. Overall is seems like you enjoyed the evening.

Gelston House

Reviewed By 40JLP43

Every Monday night during the summer there are free concerts outside behind the Goodspeed and the Gelston House . The concerts usually draw at least a thousand people who bring lawn chairs to sit on at the green but they also fill the outside patio of the Gelston House. You can sit at the tables or bar listen to the concert and enjoy a cool drink, appetizers, entrees or a really great wood fired pizza. The staff are friendly and provide great service. This is a place I'd recommend visiting.

Reviewed By Sgs8960

Celtic is a very special place, and always my first choice for both dining or grabbing a drink at the bar, with family or friends, for social or business. The food is unbelievable (thanks, Bill), and the house is the friendliest ever (thanks, Brandon). And the staff is professional, attentive, and just fun and welcoming. Too many to list - but Lauren, Chris, Sara, Kasey, Lexi, Courtney, Ang, Mea,Taylor, to start. - thanks guys!
