The Harp and Hound — Restaurant in Groton

The food is great and the atmosphere is nice. A great spot for classic pub food. Above all, the service was absolutely amazing. I cannot express how attentive the waitress was. I unfortunately did not grab her name, but she was SO friendly and thoughtful. They didn’t have any kids cups for our 2 children so she filled their cups halfway which was very smart. She was courteous and aware of the temperature since we were sitting near the AC unit - she made sure to ask if we were comfortable and grabbed the remote to turn it off. I can go on and on, but she was just all-around friendly, attentive and every positive adjective to describe a waitress. I have to also add that it was a Saturday afternoon and she was the only staff on the floor serving tables AND the bar, still keeping everyone promptly served and happy. In a time where service is usually lackluster, I think it is important to applaud those who do it well. If you read this - thank you so much for a positive experience. We will definitely be back...

I can't speak to their food as we stopped in for the music and some beers on a Friday evening. It was pretty crowded and it is a small space. After managing to squeeze near the bar to get drinks we did find a nice spot in the corner. They had some pretty talented folks playing guitars and singing that night. They have these kind of weird little low tables and stools around most of the restaraunts. The bar is split up quite a bit with lots of little corners and even the bar has a wall in the middle of it. Might be a great spot for dinner and drinks with friends during the week, but definitely a little more roundy on a...
