Must Eat Monday: Red Rooster, Newtown

Have you ever been to Newtown, Connecticut?! It seriously has more restaurants than any other small town I know. And they're all great restaurants! Every time we're there we try to find a new place to go but the Red Rooster is our new family favorite. They classify themselves as a pub and while they have a great beer list and plenty of cocktails, they're VERY family friendly and I wouldn't necessarily classify them as a pub because of that. But that's just me 

Their staff is super friendly and very attentive. We've now been three times, three different servers, and all were fantastic with our family and friends. They have pub-ish food mainly, flatbread pizzas, sandwiches, salads, and a handful of main plates. 

This time, I got their blue cheese, pear, and roasted garlic pizza. Mainly because I didn't want to share with my husband who hates blue cheese. Ha ha! But it was SO good. I got the small and not only had it for dinner last night and lunch today but will also be having it for lunch tomorrow. For $14, you can't deny that deal! 

Our friends got two different kinds of burgers and both were delicious. They come with a gourmet pickle, which is always a plus for us! 

My husband got the steak sandwich and to quote him, "it seriously just melted in my mouth". How can you deny a guy's description life that?! 

We ordered the banana pudding even though we were all stuffed and it is definitely toddler-approved! 

Plus, which is one of the coolest parts of the Red Rooster, every kids meal comes with a light-up cup that you can take home. Seriously. That makes the trip 1000 times worth it!
