The drinks and food are SO GOOD and our waiter/bartender was super nice! Shout out to Michiganders! Would definitely be regulars if we lived here!

The Folly is a bit of a hidden gem in Greenwich. It combines a gastropub front with a sexy back that made our special occasion even better than anticipated. We celebrated my best friend’s engagement there last night and we couldn’t have asked for better drinks and food. Overall the atmosphere was great though I will say it is a bit darker than most places I’ve been to so be prepared to deal with that if you’re looking to take pictures or see the menu etc etc. Our bartender that evening was great and was quick with a drink and a joke which I always enjoy. I unfortunately cannot say the same thing about our server. I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume like any of us, she probably had a bad day overall. Nevertheless, it was definitely a bit shocking to see and hear how abrasively she spoke to my fiancée. Overall, we will definitely be going back to this spot whenever we’re in the area. The ambiance, service from the bar, and food were definitely top notch.

The Folly is the perfect place to celebrate Halloween! The cozy, wood-paneled, ship-like vibe makes it an ideal spot for a fall happy hour in October or November. We came with a large group, and the service was excellent. We ordered the fries with aioli, arancini balls, peppers, and burgers — everything was fantastic. The drinks were also great and prepared quickly.

Hosted our engagement party here a few months ago and had an incredible time. The floor-level back space was perfect for our group of 30ish people, and we were able to set up some of our own decor as well. Aron was great at helping us coordinate. Service was excellent and they accommodated everyone paying separately at the bar. Great music, sick vibe, & love a frozen painkiller.

First time coming here and will be back since the vibes are amazing! I came here with my brother and friends, Lester the bartender was excellent in his service! The aesthetic of the place was super cool, and I love how live the place got after 11pm. If you’re looking for a good time, come here!

An unexpected surprise (those are the best) that we found for happy hour ahead of a dinner reservation in the area. Sea-themed place with lots of rum drinks. Plenty of other options as well. Really fun place. Will definitely re-visit soon.

I was here over the weekend and I had such a fun time ! The ambiance was lively and full of great energy — the kind of place that instantly puts you in a good mood. The music was spot-on all night, keeping the vibe upbeat without being overwhelming. But the real highlight? The drinks! Every cocktail was perfectly balanced and absolutely delicious — all thanks to the amazing bartender, Lester. He really knows his craft and made the whole experience unforgettable. Can’t wait to come back!

We were a party of 26 celebrating our niece's wedding, and this venue could not be more perfect for our size group. They also have a photo booth there that takes fantastic pictures, and every one was enjoying that too! I missed out so I can't post one. Great food, music, and friendly professional service. :)
