Family-Owned For What Feels Like Forever, Step Back In Time At Rose Dairy In Connecticut
Here at Only In Connecticut, we love featuring new restaurants. Being the first to discover a hot new eatery is a thrilling experience, don’t get us wrong. But if a restaurant has served generations of customers, there’s typically a reason why. In today’s cutthroat world, it takes a special type of quality to survive for years and years. One long-standing restaurant in Connecticut that feels like it’s been around for practically forever is Rose Dairy. This is a great old-fashioned drive in that brings back memories of “Happy Days” and “Grease.” You’ll feel like you stepped into a time machine when you stop by this cheerful spot!
In today's chaotic world of 24/7 news and non-stop phone notifications, it can be tough not to fantasize about simpler times.
Time machines may still be in the realm of science fiction novels, but one place where it feels like time has stood still for decades is Rose Dairy in Cheshire.
This place has been around since the 1950s and has been family-owned for all that time. It's a simple drive up with a classic American menu. This isn't fine dining, but it has so much charm.
The juicy burgers are huge and nothing like the thin slivers of meat you find at some drive ins. Between the tasty food and the nostalgic, familial atmosphere, you'll never want to leave this place!
