This is a treasure. We were in Groton for a few days for work and I had to see this bar in an old Quonset hut. It is nicely renovated with a tiny kitchen at the end of the bar. This reminded me of little bars I used to go to in South Korea so I liked the place immediately. …

A small bar on Broad St in New London CT. Popular with the locals But I was taken into the fold by two guys as we spoke about classic cars. The beers cold and served in frosty 16 oz glasses. Lunch and dinner are delicious at the Half Keg.
