Pub entertainment in Connecticut

  1. A

    Anchor

    Sure, you can score the standard pub-grub burgers here, but you’re much better off strolling in later in the evening. The clientele represents a real cross-section of folks. Throw some tunes on the jazz-heavy jukebox, get a drink from the full bar and settle into your black-leather banquette booth. No plastic accepted.

  2. Dutch Tavern

    Raise a cold one to Eugene O’Neill at the Dutch, the only surviving bar in town that the playwright frequented (though back in the day it was known as the Oak). It’s a good honest throwback to an earlier age, from the tin ceiling to the century-old potato salad recipe.

  3. B

    Harp Hound

    This pub, in a historic building on the west side of the drawbridge, is the late-night place to grab a pint of Irish ale; decent pub grub and English football on the telly too.
