Wow, what a find, great location with easy access. Pizza was amazing, fone to perfection. Place looks amazing and brings back lots of memories when you look around. Good old days says it all. Will definitely be back to try more of the items from the menu.

Nice restaurant with cozy atmosphere. The fireplace was on and staff were super friendly and attentive! Ordered the frisée and it was a unique salad, loved it! Spicy pizza without meat tasted good when it was hot but was not at all spicy, it was bit sweet, the crust was good though! Alagash white went good with it. Overall good experience!

I ordered pizza through Grub-hub last night, when I got there they had not received the order, even though I got confirmation that the order went through. So I ordered another one & while I waited I had a glass of wine. They didn't charge me for the pizza or the wine! This is a fun place to eat! I have been here before & will defianltly go back. The wait staff & bar tender are fun & helpful! I also paid for the couple sitting next to me without them knowing until I left! Enjoy! Sharon

★★★★☆ 4.0 Five-Star Fred · May 2025

Cool, unique atmosphere, service was okay, cocktails in the bar are definitely one of the highlights. It's a very cool little spot hidden off Main St. Plenty of parking, and some outdoor seating. Let's talk about the pizza. After all, it's a pizza place, right? They do a nice job creating several unique styles. We had two round pies, one was vodka with sausage but didn't taste much different from the plain red sauce, and a regular plain cheese pie. The square ple was my favorite simply because of the crust. The onion soup pie was interesting, pretty good! But in the big picture, this pizza is not "great" - just unique. I attribute this primarily to the fact they're cooking it in an electric pizza oven. Definitely not as good as a coal or wood-fired oven, and really no better than a trad

We had always heard great things about Good Old Days and their French onion pizza specifically, but WOW. We were beyond impressed! I think it’s great that they have a more limited menu focused on the pizza so that they can master what they do well. Loved the vibe - it was cozy but eclectic. Staff was great! We warmed up here after a night at the igloos at the nearby winery, so it really hit the spot. We’ll be back because the French onion is in the top 5 best speciality pizzas I’ve had in CT!
