Reviews for The Stomping Ground in Putnam, CT
Loved the vibe here. Live music but luckily I happened to be there for open Mic night so almost all original music being played.... The gourmet grilled cheeses all sounded yummy I picked the Sinatra. I saw others ordering wings those looked fantastic I'lldefinitely try those next time. Good selection of ciders and beer. I love all the art and funky stuff hanging everywhere. Such acool place!

Sat there for 40 minutes while other patrons we're given their food, who arrived and ordered after us mind you. After we asked... about our order,which was chicken wings,grilled cheese, nachos and a burger, we were told she forgot to put the order in!! Wewere the only other table there! 2 tables! Never again! Shouldn't have to wait an hour for basically apps! Disappointed diner! Read more
Enjoyed a drink on a bar hop. Live band was very good but the establishments acoustics were very poor. Bartenders had trouble... hearing drink orders and it was pretty chaotic for them back there. However i thought they did a great job making drinks and myMoscow mule came in a proper copper mug. Good place to watch a band but definitely not a first date. Read more
An intimate venue to listen to live music. Artsy environment and a long bar with wooden high back chairs instead of those metal... stools that seem to be everywhere. A few high top tables make it enjoyable to see the band playing. I was happy with The VanGogh, a grilled cheese sandwich with apples and onions. The food is made with care and they aim to please. They offer a halforder of nachos and have homemade options that take care in the kitchen. Prices are reasonable and all ages seemed to keepcoming through the door. A playful and happy place with a welcoming staff. Read more
This place is a little different from what I am used to but the food was actually good. I got the jalapeño poppers with bacon... and their wings of the day. It was a spicy bacon sauce wings. Absolutely delicious. I can't really complain. Read more
What a wonderful and interesting place!!! Erika was our perfect host on the day we came over to this place in the Putnam CT... restaurant district. There is a cool vibe going on here due to a perfect combination of an old storefront location, beautifulold bar woodwork, interesting artwork displayed everywhere, lots of professional live music, AND OF COURSE - a lively, creatinemenu of delicious fresh food! We loved this place. We ordered the William Shatner grilled cheese, the Big Papi wrap (loved theplantains), and the Van Gough grilled cheese. We highly recommend! Read more
The food was very, very greasy. My dish, which was flavorful, it was a Mac and cheese with bbq pork and I liked it. But very... greasy. The pot pies weren?t really pot pies because there was no crust. It was all cheese, potatoes, and grease. In the photoyou can see it?s completely drenched in oil. The grilled cheese was good though, but it?s odd that you can?t choose your ownside to go with it. And the other sandwich was not very good. Read more
A fun and comfortable place to grab a bite and drink with friends. Quirky decor, good cocktails and beer list. Food was hearty... and well portioned, but could us a bit more seasoning. Read more
