This restaurant-cum-taproom on Litchfield's town green is both a casual, welcoming hometown pub and – if eating in the dining room – a place to go for a special-occasion meal. The menu has something for everyone, from well-composed salads, to burgers and sandwiches, to pan-seared sea scallops. There's even a children's menu and an excellent sangria for the liquid-lunch crowd.
