Sadler's Ordinary

The atmosphere is very warm and cozy. The staff was welcoming and the service was paced very nicely. It was a very homey environment and that showed with the food. I felt like a relative cooked it just for me. Wonderful. Will be going back and would definitely recommend to a friend! Vegetarian options: Lots of great fish options, specifically the mussel appetizer. Parking: Big parking lot so theres no worry about parking. Wheelchair accessibility: They had a ramp allowing for wheelchair access to the entrance.

Sadler's Ordinary is an American tavern-style restaurant that opened in Marlborough, Connecticut in 1978. It has been owned by chef Kevin Haggerty since 1994. The restaurant takes its name from John Sadler: a 17th century Englishman who owned an "ordinary" (or tavern) on the same spot of land as the current establishment. Marlborough was a popular stop along the trade route between Hartford and New London, and several travelers would stop at Sadler's ordinary for a hearty meal and a place to rest. Haggerty does his best to continue the traditions started by Mr. Sadler centuries ago. The menu features steak, seafood and pasta dishes as well as classic comfort food dishes such as chicken pot pie, meatloaf and Beef Wellington. My wife, son and I recently dined at Sadler's while we were staying in the area. We had rented out a lake house in nearby Hebron for the long Presidents' Day weekend. The restaurant is inside a barn-like structure with all sorts of classic country decor such as lanterns, old farm baskets, and pewter candleholders. The focal point is the large dining room centered by a two-sided stone fireplace. To drink, I ordered Sierra Nevada Brewing's "Hazy Little Thing" IPA. The complimentary bread basket had some yummy fresh baked country bread slices. For our entrees, I ordered the "Pistachio Crusted Rainbow Trout" (with citrus sauce, wild rice, steamed veggies and mashed sweet potatoes), my wife ordered the "Chicken Pot Pie" (with mashed potatoes), and our son had the Cheeseburger (with potato chips and a cookie) from the Kid's Menu. We all enjoyed our food as well as the classic country vibe. We would definitely stop by again!
