Looking for a unique restaurant in Danbury, CT, that doesn’t feel like your run-of-the-mill chain restaurant? I’ve got the perfect spot for you! Rosy Tomorrow’s has been delighting residents and visitors to Danbury since 1980. This family-friendly restaurant is a delicious spot to grab a bite to eat, especially if you love unique surroundings and a vintage vibe.

It’s housed in an old train car, and while the name hints at the future, the decor is full of references to the past. The interior has a wide variety of antiques, making it almost feel like you’re enjoying a meal in a museum. This is such a fun restaurant and is a wonderful option whether you’re dining with friends and family or on a date.

One of the most notable aspects of Rosy Tomorrow's is immediately visible. The train caboose houses a bar and lobby area. While it's not an authentic train car (it was built for the restaurant), it certainly sets the stage for the fun you'll find inside.
