Joke. 15 minutes bartender couldn't make a Jameson and ginger. Sat there and sat there and sat there and sat there. Left went next store.

Typical Irish bar with american staff working, pleasant bar tender. Food mediocre, never expect much in an Irish bar. Atmosphere nice. Lots of memorabilia on the walls.

Looked forward to yesterday, St. Patrick's Day, for weeks as we planned our night out at Hanafin's Pub in New London. I'll start with the positives: The staff is beyond amazing! From the barstaff to the bouncer at the door, absolutely wonderful, friendly, welcoming and efficient. Now the negatives: the food is bland. My son-in-law had the shepherd's pie and... More 

Food...not so much. Many variations of beer and a full bar. A wonderful boisterous atmosphere especially if a game is on. Owned and managed by lovely people.

When the Glastonbury store closed, I called the New London store, but they refused to honor the gift certificate. I will not be frequenting Hanafins. Very disappointing.

4 of us were going to a show at the theater directly across the street from Hanafins . When we got there it wasn't very busy but it took awhile to be acknowledged and for the server to take our drink order. By the time she came to the table, we had plenty of time to review the menu so... More
