Rusty Rail Tavern - Deep River

The food here is amazing! Best cooks in Ct!Update: I worked there and WAS the cook. The place won't be there long. It's a local hangout for the local Riff Raff. The manager is eccentric and a little nutty. Nothing special here. Don't waste your moneyKid-friendliness: Games for the kids out on the patio. Can watch the old Essex trains go by

Stopped in for a few fantastic already made plans with friends to meet up again

Great place we stopped there to eat before the Essex steam train. Would definitely go back again.

Go! Food and service was great. The atmosphere is right up our alley...rustic charm and laid back. Our group of 7 made advanced reservations (recommend since tables are limited indoors). We were seated early and our waitress was personable and helpful. The cooks and bartenders made drinks/food quickly. Everything was great. The best part was the fire pit in the back...there was a smores and hot chocolate bar set up for the kids. We all had such a great experience and will be back. Thank you!

Fun rustic outdoor dining on a warm fall day...and a steam train!Smokey Mountain Double Bacon 1/2# burger was great. Fries were done perfectlyDog friendly (they actually have special meals apparently) ?
