Reviews for Hartford Road Cafe in Manchester, CT
This is a great place. Very comfortable environment, the food is good and the drink prices are surprisingly affordable. Some of... the foods I've had there that I would recommend include the Bang Bang Shrimp which was amazing and I've had several of theirwraps, all of which were very generous and delicious. The fries were unfairly good each time. I'm trying to watch my weight buttheir cook is not making it easy with fries that good. I don't know what the regular entertainment schedule includes but I knowMondays have an open mic Jam hosted by Brandt Taylor which is a really fun time. The house band is great and the musicians thatcome up to play each week are all good. They have a parking lot behind the building but there is a ton of on-street parking aswell. Read more
It's a nice hometown Bar. They've remodeled recently and it came out really nice. Their outdoor area is relaxing and doesn't... feel like it right on a main road. They do live music most Fridays and for special events. It's all local artist which is cool! The staff are fun and friendly. Read more
My friends band was playing so it was good. Drinks were cheap but the waitress was super rude ignored us the whole time. Could... have made money for the venue if 1 person asked if we wanted food?! Read more

Excellent environment, cold draft beer, delicious appetizer and scrumptious meal. Desert was very good too. Seat by the... fireplace and enjoy its earth in a cold night was priceless! Read more
Back in the day bar. Like going back in time. Definitely a locals bar. but they were very friendly to this non-local. I... wasn't planning on eating and then I found Escargot on the menu. Snails are very difficult to find these days. They were bakedin a ceramic dish with cheese, butter and tons of garlic. They were delicious and there had to be at least 10 pieces. It isalso served with two pieces of sourdough like toast that is great for dipping in the sauce. They have a nice selection of craftdrafts. The barkeep is super friendly and did the follow-up that is rare to find these days. Nice ambiance. Plenty of offstreet parking in the rear. Read more
Want the best escargot you've had (and I don't care where you've been)? Hartford Road Cafe. This place is definitely a hidden... jem. I was very pleasantly surprised that a roadside cafe could serve up a slightly unusual dish with such unusual taste. Bravo. Read more
