“ Happened to be in New Haven and wanted a snack and a couple drinks. It was a Monday afternoon and we took a seat at one of the tables in the bar area, they have a limited menu which is perfect for what we were looking for. It was their Monday Funday so the vibes were cards and some cool board games! I got the glizzy of the week which happened to be a Bahn Mi all beef hot dog with all the fixings of a Bahn Mi, cucumber, carrots, fresh jalapeño on a baguette roll, was perfect! My wife got an order of the General Tso's tenders and we split an order of onion rings. You can tell a quality onion ring when the onion doesn't fall out upon first bite, sauces were good too, we got ranch and a smoked ketchup. Bartenders were quick and friendly, great place off downtown to grab a bite and a drink! As always, don't forget to pay for street parking in order to avoid a ticket! ”
“ The nachos have the best queso and the pork was perfectly cooked! It's definitely a "dive" bar with a retro stool and decor vibe. But the food is worth the price and the service was great. A rare find dive bar that is worth the quick stop for a bite n booze! ”
“ This cool little dive bar a block off the main drag of the Yale campus was pretty chill. And for a dive bar, they make a few crafty drinks, including a delicious smoked old fashioned and a flavorful mezcal cocktail. The bartender was chatty and aptly dealing with the variety of people coming in for a drink or some food. We enjoyed a couple of cocktails and took the short walk back to the Courtyard hotel a block away. ”
“ This past weekend, I had organized and hosted an After Concert party following the Hanabie show at Toad's Place here at Three Sheets. The organization was pretty casual, and post concert we had about 40 people meet up after the show, and more followed a bit later. Probably around 50 people attended the party Dan was a Rockstar bartender, and everything went smooth, and all attending had fun, while still seeing the regular Three Sheets crowd there and seamlessly being able to enjoy their night as well Great evening and job by all involved, and BIG thanks to Three Sheets for hosting us ”
“ Stopped in here one our recent visit to New Haven. Very cute name and there is seating outside, inside by the bar, and in the separate room that has a stage for live music. We got the nachos and the yuca fritas. Both SO GOOD! We ended up having to take some home. The fritas come with two sauces, a creamy one and a cilantro-ie one. Loved them! The chairs are size inclusive, and sturdy. Parking is on the street, (pay to park). It was one of the highlights of our weekend ”
“ Great dive bar. Pool table in the back. Shows a few times a month. What more could you want? ”
“ One of our stops on our New Haven bar hopping voyage. Small hole in the wall place with a lovely bartender. Wanted the one hoodie they had for a keepsake. Not in stock... sucked. Just had a drink but had a great time. ”
“ I stopped in for a quick drink, and noticed it was almost 4: happy hour. This was my first time going, I've always wanted to visit but couldn't for one reason or another, and I enjoyed myself. The atmosphere of the bar reminded me of old New Haven. I'm always a fan of dive bars that embed themselves in vintage New Haven-ness without being kitschy or annoying. I will definitely go again and the highlight was the bartender. She was perfectly attentive and made me a guava punch with the perfect pour. ”
