Fun place

I really enjoyed my meal at this restaurant. It's in an old post office and the old PO boxes are in the wall. It's a lively, fun place.

I had the Vegan Beyond Sausage sandwich and really enjoyed it. The jalapenos were pretty spicy for my taste but I was easily able to pick them off. The fries that came with the sandwich were excellent.

I'd definitely return if I lived in the area.

Pros: Fun atmosphere, Vegan options!

Great atmosphere with very decent vegan options

I’ve been here many times, and it’s always been great. Usually with large groups of people, and often times during cycling day trips as the location is near the rails to trails. There are a number of interesting vegan items on the menu. They are identified as vegan. Their vegan chili is homemade, with vegetables and beans. They also have a vegan bean dip appetizer. There Is a homemade veggie burger, I’m not sure if it is vegan or vegetarian, but there are also sandwiches made with vegan sausage. It seems like every year they add more to the menu that is vegan, Definitely worth going to.

Pros: Atmosphere , Above average vegan options, Great beer

Some upgrades since my last visit!

Although Willi Brew always had good vegetarian options I hadn't been back since I went completely vegan until the other day. We stopped by for lunch since we were in the area and the menu definitely had some upgrades! Still not a ton of vegan options but more than they used to. They have a vegetarian chik'n sandwich on the menu that the server was very upfront about not being vegan so I orderd the house made vegan burger and the server let me know the traditional brioche bun was not vegan but that their own beer bread was and offered to serve my burger on that instead. Both burger and bun were delicious! The veggie burger was definitely vegetable based but it stayed together better than most and the flavor was great! They also have the Beyond Sausage on the menu they serve a couple different ways.

Pros: Variety of options

Cons: More vegetarian than vegan friendly

nice atmosphere, great beer

I've eaten at WilliBrew since I was in high school growing up in NE CT, and like to stop in when I'm visiting. The menu options are about the same for vegans as in years past, and are kind of limited but decent. The beers and the pub atmosphere are the best parts of a visit to WilliBrew.

Pros: lots of beers on tap, great meet-up spot, a few decent vegan choices

incredible beer, acceptable vegan food

We go here regularly for the beer but the vegan food is totally fine. Very limited options; we mostly get the chili (request it with no sour cream etc.) and a baked potato, or the mushroom wrap without the dairy products. Their beer is really, really good, so if you're a vegan beer lover, this place is worth a trip.

Great Veggie Burgers & Awesome Beer

I've lived in central/eastern CT my whole life and never heard of the Willimantic Brewery until friends of ours recommended it. What a pleasant surprise. They have a great selection of beers and make enough Veg Friendly dishes to keep us coming back.

On this first trip we had the Home Made Veggie Burgers. I topped mine with the Veggie Chili, it was delicious. Chased it down with a couple 2010 Unfiltered American IPAs. At 7.3%abv, it hit the spot just right.

Pros: Great Food, Great Beer

Cons: Little Noisey
