One Of The Most Rustic Restaurants In Connecticut Is Also One Of The Most Delicious

Everybody loves fine dining on occasion, but sometimes you just want to eat a meal at a good old-fashioned rustic restaurant in Connecticut. You know the type: good food, friendly staff, no frills surroundings that complement the natural scenery, and a homey atmosphere that makes you feel like you're amongst friends and family. One place that embodies that rustic vibe so well that it's literally in its name is Rustic Cafe in East Lyme. East Lyme may be a beach town, but this little restaurant has such a woodsy atmosphere that you will feel like you stepped into the Catskills or Adirondacks.

This little shack has been serving up food since 1947. It's a cozy no-frills place that's small on size but big on atmosphere.

The bar is the social centerpiece of the restaurant, and they've got plenty of local brews and cocktails to choose from.

Even if you don't want to drink, there's plenty of other indoor seating. The restaurant regularly has live music and dancing.

There's also outdoor seating if you prefer to be somewhere a little quieter, with a fireplace for cold nights.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all available here. There are many seafood choices.

You can also pick out a burger. Of course, plenty of traditional burgers are available on the menu, but there are also unique toppings like peanut butter and chocolate, if you're feeling adventurous.

The flavors actually blend quite well with the half-pound Angus burger and it's quite tasty!

One thing's for sure, one step in this rustic restaurant in Connecticut and you'll feel incredibly welcome.

You can get more information about Rustic Cafe on the restaurant's website.
