2nd time here. Great hometown pub with great food. John the owner is very friendly and appreciative.
Dinner tonight was awesome! Great Chicken Philly and Onion Rings! Paddy the Bartender makes an excellent Espresso Martini! 10 out of 10 and everything tonight
This place makes you feel like home. The food is great, and live music! Best burgers in the area and pouring a proper pint of Guinness!
We're always looking for a not bougie place to eat, not a dive either. Great food for a great price and service that makes you feel like you are family practically. Enter our Date night= whitlock's this Sunday. My boyfriend had the captain's platter surf and turf special that even came with a ridiculously huge brownie sundae. Seriously?the portion was gigantic and the shrimp were gigantic! So was the brownie sundae, which he exclaimed, "Challenge accepted!" I had the big clucker. Best chicken sandwich ever. Needless to say, I also have lunch to now! Will be our go to. Highly recommend!
I came here for an event a few months ago because Whitlocks is the celebrant's favorite restaurant, and loved the experience! I had the Murr Burger, and thought it was so good that I brought my sister here for her birthday.My sister's exact response to her meal was "out of this world!" The atmosphere is pleasant, great friendly service,and the food is delicious! Definitely recommend! FYI if you love clam strips it's the place to go!
We went to Whitlocks Friday night to celebrate our friend’s birthday. We had a wonderful time. Our server was lovely, friendly and very attentive. The food was great from our appetizers to dessert. A very enjoyable evening. We will be back again soon for sure.
I needed a place to have a work event and reached out to John - He was receptive, accommodating and a pleasure to work with. Upon arrival everything was as discussed and Betty Lou provided great service and stayed on top of things for the entire duration of our event. The dining room's atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. Thank you Whitlock's !
We’ve been twice now and the food is not only great, but consistent. Others have mentioned the French Onion Soup and Burgers which I’d argue are the best in the area! Aside from their standard menu, they offer weekly specials to keep things interesting. It’s your standard Irish pub but you feel at home when you walk in the door. Truly what separates Whitlock’s from the rest is their customer service. They truly care about their patrons. They go out of their way to make sure you are satisfied and taken care of. We’ve dined with our young kids (which is no easy feat) and have only been met with unwavering support to help our visit go smoothly. We will definitely be back supporting this business again!!
Whitlock’s Restaurant in Bethel, CT invited me out to kick off their Four Horsemen Showdown! Challengers have one hour to eat the following: -A quadruple cheeseburger topped with pickles -A quadruple chicken cutlet burger topped with 4 fried eggs and 8 slices of bacon -2 orders of two loaded “double dogs” (two hot dogs per bun) -Fries, onion rings, Cole slaw -One root beer float Successful completion grants you a free meal and a t-shirt. Failure will result in a $90 bill and immortal disappointment. I made my way to Whitlock’s where they sectioned off my own private table and even curated a custom playlist loaded with, Metallica, Pantera, Lamb of God 🤘🏿. Just when I couldn’t get more amped, the giant platter of challenge food arrived! It weighed approximately 8.3lbs total (without the root beer float). Without letting this succulent spread get cold, I got to eating. After a relatively quick start, fatigue arrived sooner than expected, but I pushed along not letting my rate of perceived exertion deter me. After an arduous 49:31, I successfully completed all the requisite food becoming the very first person to take on and finish The Four Horsemen Showdown. Shout out to Johnny in the kitchen for cooking up all my food! Thems were some DAMN fine burgers! I can legit say, these were some of the best chicken patties I’ve eaten. Restaurant challenges are way more enjoyable when food is prepared this well 👏🏿. Thank you! I also need to thank the entire community at Whitlock’s! So many regulars turned out to watch me try to devour a ton of food! Everyone treated me with supportive camaraderie and I truly enjoyed getting to hang out with everyone and answer any and ALL gross eating questions 💩. Finally, there isn’t a thank you enormous enough for John Murray for concocting and hosting this crazy fun challenge for me and my competitive eating friends to take on! It was such a treat not having to drive over an hour to take on a restaurant challenge! I hope we can get more
Let me start by saying I need to eat this food fresh because it tastes so good delivered. I need it straight from the kitchen. Mozzarella sticks great taste. Hot dogs with cheese and bacon amazing. Even the fries still tasted good after a car ride.
