There are plenty of great places in Connecticut where you can grab a drink. From bars to speakeasies to restaurants that just happen to serve up wonderful booze, you’ll find no shortage of perfect places to indulge in a nightcap, whether you like your drinks spiked or of the non-boozy variety. New Haven is a great city for visitors and locals alike – the streets are filled with museums, attractions, and restaurants. One of the best is 116 Crown, a lounge with a great array of eats that also happens to have some of the best cocktails in New Haven.

This is a trendy spot that's perfect for an evening out on the town with friends or an intimate, celebratory date night.

It's modern, with a lounge vibe, but there are tables to sit at if you'd prefer to avoid the bar atmosphere. You can also opt to eat outside at any time of year, as 116 Crown offers igloo dining in the winter.

You'll find so much more than traditional bar food here. There are great appetizers and meals, with charcuterie boards, Angus burgers, seafood options, and more.
