10 Bars & Clubs in Connecticut That You Shouldn't Miss

May 2, 2022 Weston Hennigan

Connecticut is a study in attraction and contrast. In one small state, you’ll find miles of sandy oceanfront shoreline, acres of forested hiking trails, and world-class museums, art and theater. Here family-friendly adventure parks and aquariums are just minutes from dynamic casino resorts and quaint, historic small towns — offering experiences that range from culinary to cultural, luxurious to laid-back. It’s the perfect place to unwind and recharge, all at the same time.

Cafe Nine

Reviewed By mmbookbug - Hanover, United States

We love Cafe Nine and have gone there many times over the years. It is a cozy bar and a wonderful space to discover and listen to music, with a respectful and enthusiastic audience. Good selection of beers and a very friendly atmosphere. It would be nice if they could keep latecomers from blocking the view of people who arrived earlier. Note that there is a cover charge for live music.

Chef Carlos personally delivered exquisite culinary delights right to the door of my car at the new drive up service area. Same great food, super convenient and socially distant. Five stars.

Aspetuck Brew Lab

Reviewed By jeffreyBeachTennis

If you're lucky enough to discover Aspetuck Brew Labs in the Black Rock section of Bridgeport, you won't be disappointed. First and foremost, their beer is outstanding, top-notch, second to none. Regardless of the style (IPA, Sour, Stout,etc.), anything which you try there will be delicious although his area of expertise seems to be beers w/ high ABV's that are easy to drink, a skill that speaks for itself. The atmosphere & flavor of the taproom is fantastic, & the only thing that may be better than the beer itself is the wonderful folks who work there that make you feel welcome from the get go. Pete & his staff have created a unique craftbrew establishment that is the best possible example of where the world of microbrews has evolved to in the modern era. I always bring home either a growler, a growlito, or some cans of his beer to turn on friends back home in New York. They are routinely impressed w/the taste/quality of his product, even if they are not sophisticated beer drinkers. Invariably, I always run into another brewer from Ct. or somewhere in New England when I'm there. What bigger compliment than the fact that knowledgeable people who are also brewers come to visit Aspetuck to talk shop as well as to quaff his delicious product. "Nuff said!
