About

Beginning on June 17 reopening for indoor dining as well as our outdoor Biergarten. Our hours are subject to change.

Great food, Service, and Atmosphere!

Great beer and food! I invite people here regularly. The people are friendly and welcoming, even when they are packed! If it's a Thursday or Saturday night, call first. Sometimes that are very busy. They have a neon "Open Tables" light in a window visible...More

Nice Ambiance

This is a bustling little restaurant in the heart of Willimantic. It was packed but we had a reservation and we were actually seated in advance of our prescribed time. Our waitress, Bailey, started off great but then got busy and we lost her for...More

OK, but won't rush back.

We felt the food was very average. I had the Bigelow Beef wrap, which was tasty once you get to the sauce which was too thin to stay on the contents. It kind of sank to the end of the wrap. My wife's BLT was...More

Old Post Office

A wonderful repurposing of what used to be a beautiful old school post office. Good selection of food at reasonable prices and an amazing array of beers. Excellent service. Parking can be dicey depending on time of day.
