Main Street Pint And Plate

We went at 5:30pm on a Wednesday and it was active but not crowded. Most people were in the bar area. Brussels sprouts were good, crispy with a little sweet. I had the scallops salad and it was really good. My friend had the chicken marsala risotto. Each night is a different flavor risotto as the special. She loved it.

To start, the servers and tenders were SUPER friendly. This was my first time going and that helped a lot. We only ordered nachos for food. They were pretty good. They have an awesome drink list, cocktails, martinis etc. Plus a good variety af beers. I think we waited so long cause we thought parking was going to be tough but it couldn't have been easier.

Had my birthday dinner her last night!! It was awesome. They were able to accommodate all 13 members of my party. The staff was super nice and very attentive to my guests and me. The manager/ owner came over and greeted us and told us to be as loud as we wanted to be😂😂I really enjoyed my food it was delicious!! They even had live music and according to some of my guests, really good drinks. This place is definitely a cut above the rest. Go see for yourself.

This place really is great! First time coming here and it was very full (Friday night). We didn't have reservations, but our wait wasn't too long--we did luck out as a table for 4 was just clearing out. The hostess was very pleasant, gave us a wait time, but promptly sat us. Our two waitresses were amazing, gave us attention, but didn't smother us nor ignore us, definitely a healthy balance!! Food, what can I say, great choices on the menu. Truly does cater to those with allergies. If there was something you wanted that wasn't safe, they are willing to accommodate should they be able to! They have the Beyond Burger and Vegan Style BBQ Jackfruit Pulled Pork Sandwich for those who are Vegan; they also carry Gluten Free bread!! My husband ordered the Brussels Sprouts & RJ's BBQ Brisket Sandwich (because he's Gluten Free, he could not have the sauce), but it was really great! I had a simple House Salad with Grilled Chicken (sans the croutons and dressing as I am Gluten Free as well). Our friends had the Mac and Cheese and a Caesar Salad with a special request of Buffalo Cauliflower on her salad. All were quite delicious! Drinks, I only drink wine and the selection was nice. I cannot comment on the beer/cocktails, however I hear great things!! The atmosphere, as I mentioned in the beginning, was very lively. They had live music playing and it wasn't obnoxiously loud where you couldn't hear each other speak. All in all, I highly recommend this place. It was really wonderful!!

We had a periodic family get-together at The Main Street Pint & Plate on 8/22/18. It's in a very nicely remodeled, old brick building in a neighborhood that is quickly improving & gaining status in Bristol. The interior had partially exposed brick walls and high tin ceiling in a style that is becoming popular in pubs in many towns in Connecticut. Very warm, and appealing, if a bit loud when they're busy. Upon entering the bar area, we were immediately greeted by a very friendly hostess, and seated in a separate dining room that is on a level about three steps higher than the bar area, so the noise of the bar didn't impede our quiet dinner conversation. Our server came very shortly after to take our drink orders. The menu is not very extensive, but offers a good number of options plus specials. A small menu done well is superior to a long one with mediocre offerings. My sister and my cousin's hubby ordered the short rib entrée, while my cousin had a bacon cheeseburger and I requested the salmon burger with cheddar cheese & house made dill tartar sauce. onion rings and a side order of mac & cheese. Both who had the short rib commented on the quality of their meal, tender, good tasting, and cooked as requested. My salmon burger was extremely good. Very flavorful, and was also quite large. The dill tartar sauce was ok, but only because I'm not a fan of dill. Perhaps they could offer a more traditional tartar sauce as an option. The macaroni & cheese was good....."better than average", but maybe could have used different, or maybe more kinds of cheese. When it came time for dessert, I had the cocoanut creme brûlée, and my cousin's hubby opted for the peach bourbon upside-down cake. Both were declared excellent. My sister said the coffee was awful. I didn't have any. Service was very prompt and timely. A nice touch was that the chef came to each table to ask patrons how their respective meals were. I'm guessing we will meet here again for a family dinner, since we all enjoyed the food, service, and ambience.
