2 years agoDecided to stop by and check this place out for Karaoke. What a gem! The bartenders last night were Kelsey and Kevin and were great. They really made me feel like a regular. Always ready to get you a refill. Karaoke was a blast too! Was a short lineup with a bunch of great singers! Looking forward to being back in the area to swing by again. Thanks guys for a great time! It’s been almost a year and I was in town and stopped by hoping for another great evening. This time it was even better! Kelsey was awesome again making me feel like just another regular. I can’t thank her enough for her welcoming smile. The karaoke was even better this time! I am looking forward to being back in town for another great evening here!

3 years agoThis place is phenomenal! food and drinks are excellent ans environment is so welcoming. BUT they should get 6 stars out of 5 as a venue! hosted a baby shower here and the staff blew us away. Brian and Noah were so responsive in planning and accommodating to any requests. Day of Dave & Brandon were excellent and the guests went out of their way to tell me how exceptional the staff was. Truly it was like throwing a party in the comfort of your home with none of the hassle. If you’re in need of a venue this should be your first and only stop!

year agoI went to The Barn in Groton for the first time last night to check out the Country on Deck writers’ round—and I was so glad I did! The ambiance was super chill and welcoming, with a great crowd and even better live music. Big shoutout to Josh Mattei for organizing such a solid event—every performer brought something special to the stage. While I was there, I ordered the Sausage & Veggies Pizza and it totally hit the spot. It came out quickly, had the perfect crunch, generous toppings, and was super filling. I even had leftovers the next morning (still good, just not as amazing as fresh out the oven—but that’s expected!). Overall, great food, great vibes, and a great spot to support local talent. Definitely worth checking out if you haven’t been yet! 🍕🎶👏
