There's just something about a burger, isn't there? This all-American classic was invented right here in Connecticut more than a century ago, so it makes sense that you can find some of the best hamburgers in the nation in the Nutmeg State. If you're searching for huge burgers that are as packed with flavor as they are with size, you won't want to miss the massive burgers at The Salty Dog Tavern. This pub-style restaurant has two locations in Connecticut, with one in Plainville and one in Southington. It's a relatively new spot, having opened up in 2022, but the burgers are amazing and can compete with any in the state. Let's check out these huge burgers in Connecticut.
This sports tavern features a family-friendly, laid-back atmosphere that feels casual and like you're dining with a group of friends.
The friendly service and casual ambiance make this such a fun place to dine. There are plenty of happy hours and specials that help you out when dining on a budget.
There's a full selection of local craft beers on tap. The Nutmeg State brewing scene is growing in leaps and bounds, and it's great to support local businesses.
Nachos are the perfect bar food, and the ones here are an excellent way to start your meal.
The burgers are massive and oh-so-delicious.
Every burger on the menu is a quarter-pound smashed blend of seasoned brisket and chuck, making for a unique taste you won't find anywhere else. If you're feeling extra hungry, you can add a second patty for a Double Smash.
If you're not a fan of burgers, there's plenty of other options on the menu, including sandwiches, wings, salads, and more.
