Jealous Monk

Mystic, CT  2020

This place opened up a few years ago at Olde Mistick Village and seems to be doing a very lively business. They feature good pub food, along with one of the largest varieties of craft brews on tap that I've ever seen.

A nice place to have lunch serving a very good rueben sandwich.

Ah, another Irish Pub I need to add to my list of pubs to visit. 

Harp and Dragon Pub

Norwich, CT

This looks like a scene I'd expect to see in Dublin, Ireland, not in Norwich CT.  I'm pretty sure the sign is translated as "A thousand welcomes".  I need to brush up on my Gaelic.

John's

Mystic, CT

There are a number of "Irish" pubs in Mystic and the surrounding towns here in southeast Connecticut.  I'm proud to say that I have a significant Irish heritage and I have been known to down a pint or two at some of these fine establishments, even here at John's.  I do find it a little disconcerting that according the the sign above the door, which you might not be able to read in this photo, John's was established in 1967,  making it 14 years younger than I am.  For some reason I think all Irish pubs should be hundreds of years old or at least older than 60 years!  Despite being a mere 47 years old, John's did have a nice reflection and for this reason,  I'll be sharing this with other much more outstanding reflections from around the world at Weekend Reflections.  Have a nice weekend and thanks for reading.
