The Charles in Wethersfield is always very busy and, in many ways, it’s the only game in town

Tisane seems like a rad place to work with flexible roles (hostess, barista, bartender, server).

I'm sorry this person is being so disrespectful to you.

I would find a place that hits the sweet spot - high enough checks and clientele that tip well + good turnover, so you get enough tables each night. Are you looking for something in Hartford itself? Because I might look at any of the restaurants in the Blue Back Square area of West Hartford. They're always pretty busy.

Guess you’re talking about your own comprehension skills.
Read what I wrote again. Slowly this time so you can understand it.
I still think McDonalds is a good choice for you.

Comprehension can be hard for some and that’s okay, if you read what I wrote you’ll be happy to know I am in fact looking for another job and was hoping for some recommendations😅

I also took a look at your profile. There’s several halal markets in Bloomfield and Windsor. West Hartford has kosher food. Windsor has a Mosque on white rock road and a nice Muslim community. I’m Christian but they’ve always been loving and made me feel welcome.

And I used to live in West Hartford. The commute is horrible no matter where you go. East of the river (East Hartford, Glastonbury, Manchester) is also a nightmare just like West Hartford and Farmington. The buses also run frequently depending on where you move. Bloomfield and Windsor also surround Hartford and will have traffic.

Do not move to 50 Morgan Street in Hartford (please google) But there’s some new apartments in downtown if that’s in your budget. The West End is also a nice area. I’m happy to answer questions. I love the city and while I’m not happy about gentrification, I welcome any new residents that appreciate the arts and rich culture we have.

Make sure you eat before you get to the funny bone. If you get your food, it might be the wrong order. But the drinks and comedians are great.

Reply to comment by HartfordResident in Quick question about parking @ Bradley by skiitifyoucan
thanks everyone - I just parked in outdoor Lot 2. I just wasn't sure how hard or easy that was going to be. Turns out it was easy. It was like a 90 second outdoor walk and it cost me like $62 for 8 days or something like that.

Definitely don’t eat at the funny bone. The food is garbage, and you and your fiancé will spend the rest of the night taking turns on the toilet instead of each other.
That being said, there are some fine restaurants in the area. If you’re into craft beer Elicit Brewery is down the street and has both excellent food and excellent craft beer. This would be my first choice, if it were me.
If you’re looking for additional entertainment Dave and busters is right there, which can be fun and different (but expensive)
Someone else here said “Maggy Mcflys” - don’t eat there. It’s like second rate Cheesecake Factory. The menu is like 37 pages long. I did restaurant work for 15 years and I can tell you with a menu like that, not everything is fresh. The service is iffy because who can remember what’s in 2073 different options. I’ve been a couple of times and the server had to go ask someone else the answer to every question I had - which was basic stuff - again, I’m a restaurant dude and I’m not looking to complicate peoples lives, I just wanted to know what I was eating.
There’s another brewery there called “BJ’s” - I’ve never been there personally, but I’m always surprised by how many cars are in the lot, so it’s probably fairly decent.
Lastly, if you’re looking for upscale, fine dining type atmosphere, there is Mill on the River or Burtons in South Windsor. Both are proximal to the comedy club and have classier environments if that’s what you’re after.
Good luck.

Welcome to Hartford! Nevermind the haters, downtown is safe, with plenty to do. No grocery store within walking distance though.
I might also recommend the West End - plenty of walkable accommodations plus easy access to downtown via bus or a 5 minute drive.
I'm also from a large (massive) city in Texas; in comparison, Hartford (and the rest of CT) feel tiny and slow. You can get to Boston, NYC, the mountains and/or the shoreline in the time it takes to drive across Houston (a bit longer to the big cities). Lots of Texpats here.

Keep in mind i went last winter but I would not suggest eating at the Funny Bone. More than half of the audience did not recieve their food. I believe this was due to staff shortages. Hopefully this has changed but I'd err on the side of cation. There is a great selection of restaurants in the area. Enjoy the show, I had a great time despite the mentioned issue.

I would avoid Tisane, they have a really bad internal drama issue that they need to work out. It's bad enough that it's causes a lot of regulars (myself included) to stop going there.
