Visited October 19, 2010. Awesome bottle selection and great tap listing. Server was knowledgable about beer. Food was wonderful.

Choiose here because half way between NYC and RI and needed to meet parents to exchange my dogs prior to vacation. Odd place with 3 separate rooms. However the back bar had good tvs and lots of taps and plenty of whiskey. If I wasn’t driving I could do real damage. Food was quite decent for bar food and service was friendly. Nice find curteseoy of ratebeer

Man this place feels like Cheers! I really hated to leave. They have two bars in the restaurant I was at the smaller one near the entrance. What an interesting group of people there. The beer list was massive with way over 50 taps and over 150 bottles. They also had a big selection of whiskeys. The bar staff was extremely friendly. They even comped me a beer. I’ll definitely go back if I’m in the area.

January business trip had me looking for a beer bar nearby to Cromwell, CT. Delaney’s ranked high on everybody’s list so I thought I’d give it a look see. Little confused when I first arrived, Delaney’s takes up two storefronts and has two bars. I sat at the back (older) bar that is not featured on the website. On a Tuesday night @ 7PM all locals and the vibe was right my style. Extensive beer list, very friendly barstaff, and even got a shot of Tullamore Dew on the house. Sandwich I had tasted great and the sweet potato fries were excellent. Don’t know when the next time I’ll be in the area but I’ll be sure to come in again to this friendly beer bar.

Great spot! Nice selection of quality tap beers, and an even better selection of bottles. Food was terrific, and they have a couple sections of the place with different atmospheres, depending on what you are there for (bar areas, restaurant, etc.).

Got there on a quiet Sunday afternoon to catch up with some old friends. Decent location with a parking lot, which is nice. Good tap selection and good bar food. Definitely worth a stop.

Definately the go-to place in New Haven, though one needs to drive through a more undesireable neighbourhood to be here. Staff and even most other patron are friendly, and give off that neighbourhood bar feeling. One big bar a pool table and dart boards. The other, just that English stle bar place with unobtrusive music. Both with long bars. Several tables for restaurant. he bartender quickly ran to get me extra tastings of stuff, and even cracked open a bottle when I was talking about polish beers, to try something new. 56 taps, with often a theme going on. This week it wasSierra Neveda’s, and worth travelling out of the way for. Good carbonation and temperature of beers served, appropriate glassware.

Recently stopped by for a nice lunch on the patio. Large selection with many beers you don’t usually find on tap. Was out of the first two things I ordered, yet was still able to try some tasty beers.

A great spot in New Haven, a little pricey, but i didnt really care after an afternoon spent in ikea. selection is amazing, draft list was a little weak after seeing what was in bottles, but with 45 draught, 160 bottles, there was enough to chose from, dinner was excellent, waiter was fine, not great. definetly a good spot if your in the area.

Stopped here for a couple of drinks while waiting to pick up a quality pie from New Haven. Service was kind of slow, but the bartenders knew what they were doing (such as proper glassware). I had Ithaca Apricot Wheat and Brooklyn’s Chocolate Stout, which was amazing, by the way. Stone Old Guardian was on draught and usually that’s hard to come by so props. The bar had two cask handles but weren’t offering any casks. It’s a bit off putting how disorganized the bar is in terms of what was actually on draught and what they had written to be on draught. I found it better to just look at the individual tap handles to find out what they had, and speaking of, there’s taps in random spots surrounding the bar (it’s not like, 40 taps in one area but 10 here and 10 there and there). Peanut shell crumbs surround the place. Overall: I’ve been to much better. But I noticed that the customers there are super friendly. Return: Yeah, sure. #30 on 21112009, DG.
