If you’ve ever spent time in the southern states then you know the local cuisine is much different from what you find in the north. Connecticut is full of incredible eateries featuring New England classics like chowder and lobster rolls.
What’s more difficult to find is authentic southern fare. Items like fried green tomatoes, gumbo, and catfish, make appearances at many tables in the south but are much harder to come by here. There’s one southern style restaurant in the Nutmeg State where you can find all of these delicious dishes and your taste buds will thank you for visiting it.
Peaches Southern Pub & Juke Joint delivers the flavors from the south you've been craving. Located in Norwalk, enjoy pub food with a southern flare in this warm and friendly 2-story restaurant.
Small plates include delicious options like Louisiana crawfish cakes, pickled deviled eggs, Bayou mussels, and more. One of our personal favorites is the Fried Green Tomatoes with bacon, tomato jam, and buttermilk ranch.
Connecticut may be known for its clam chowder but at Peaches, the Charleston crab chowder rules the roost. This creamy delight has plenty of crab and a splash of brandy.
If you're craving a little spice, dive straight into a bowl of Gumbo YaYa. Filled with plump shrimp, andouille, peppers, dirty rice, and plenty of heat, this is a bowl of pure southern goodness.
Once you've tasted the southern fare at Peaches, you'll be a fan for life. The restaurant also caters so you can have a fantastic southern spread at your next event.
