There’s comedy nights on Tuesdays in Manchester at the hungry tiger.

Max downtown, wadsworth Atheneum, and a few other monuments downtown are nice to checkout. Max is a good hang albeit expensive and the others are one offs. Go into the Goodwin hotel and ask them for a tour map to check out the area, they’ll tell you where to go if you imply to the concierge that you’re staying there.

If you wanna catch a comedy night at the tiger lmk and I’ll come have a drink with you

45 minutes from 3 casinos, CT is pretty lame (have lived here for 28 years lol)

Go to the Main Pub in Manchester

Cool!! I notice it is heavily skewed towards certain parts of CT. Any recs for eastern CT that are missing from the list?

The mod of r/CTHookups did not want an extra mod, he ended up going MIA for months and it was banned for not being moderated. Over 18K? or 19K? Subscribers....Now it's gone and it's his fault!. Either way I started a new one!

I guess /r/CTHookups and /r/CTHookups1 were already taken

Lmfao I thought the same thing

I’m sad cus Ivy Wok literally closed not long after that post :(((

Holy shit, that’s incredible. I definitely missed this! Thank you!

I wish you a pleasant return to LA. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Yeah. Manchester is lame. West Hartford has a bunch of great restaurants in the Center and Blue Back Square.

I grew up near Harvard and MIT. The areas surrounding the schools are in high demand from both graduates and the general public. I personally think it’s odd how Yale is surrounded by areas that most Yale grads won’t to make their permanent home. It’s a huge loss to CT that YALE isn’t required to do A PILOT (payment in lieu of taxes) to help their community at large.

LMAO

You can walk around inside Mohegan Sun

u/Briguy1994 made this list last year and it seems pretty comprehensive

Such a good question. You never know if it’s American fusion or tastes like back home. Interested to read comments

Well, that’s a pretty snotty way of asking for advice!

Do you have a car? What activities do you typically enjoy? What kind of food? Some specifics would be helpful.

(And addicts on the streets of Manchester??? Are you SURE you’re from LA?)

Only good thing is we are about 2 hours from Boston and NYC

I moved here from LA 25 years ago and I’m still sad lol. Glastonbury has a few good hangout bars, Rooftop, Plan B, The Diamond. West Hartford is great for shopping dining etc, and Mystic is a nice day trip.

I rly recommend the Wadsworth athenaeum. Imo it's best thing the city has interns of a fun place to visit. They genuinely have great art there.

I agree with this. Look at Hartford.

Hit up semilla coffee shop in hartford

It's not LA, but there's good good and drink West Hartford. That's where most people go out in central CT these days.

Main Street in Manchester or just off has some good stuff all within about a one mile…good food/bars, breweries, some cool stores like Retro Junk and a bunch of other small businesses. Look at schedules for the restaurants or breweries, most have live music or other events on weekends.

Or if it’s more your thing, there’s a board game place that does big events and mixers fairly often…can’t recall the name of the place, perhaps someone can help me out.

Welcome to ct.
