Hamden
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Hamden, Connecticut
Hamden, just outside New Haven and home to Quinnipiac University, has a bar scene built around sports bars and classic bars in fairly equal measure - BarFinder lists 25 venues, with a few gastropubs and a growing brewery presence like No Worries Brewing Company rounding things out. Local spots like the VUE Bar & Grill and Jimmy D's Bar & Grill keep things casual and neighborhood-focused. It's a solid suburban scene shaped by its college-town next-door neighbor.
