Hank's Drinkery - Hartford

We dined at a traditional bar restaurant. The service was good and the food was excellent. It was reasonably priced and all dishes were tasty and served hot. Our group of 5 enjoyed fried chicken, chicken wings, a variety of hot dogs, sweet potato fries, and a delicious Caesar chicken wrap.

The imitation lobster was tasty, but the twice-baked potato seemed store-bought. The fish fry also tasted like it was bought from a store. Unfortunately, my boyfriend got sick later that night, claiming the fish didn't taste fresh. The food quality seems to have declined since our last visit a few years ago.

I decided not to spend any money here. The speak easy was closed and the main bar looked outdated. We ended up leaving without ordering anything.

Cozy friend spot, easy for honest conversation. Intelligent employees make for uplifting the spirits over a casual meal and cigarette. Food special I should try next time.

Friendly staff, good variety of food and drinks. Lots of TV's for watching sports. Forgiving pool table.
