At Mel's we offer seven different burgers made with Pat LaFrieda meat. Featured burgers include The Original Burger made on white toast and inspired by Connecticut's famous Louis' Lunch, the self proclaimed creator of the hamburger and the Cadillac Burger, a Neuske's bacon cheeseburger on a potato roll. A flavor-packed list of "side action" favorites, a slew of toppings and home-made sauces such as Bearnaise and Creamy Horseradish will take your beef into another stratosphere. Vegetarian items such as the Nurse Betty veggie burger served on potato roll and super salads are sure to impress all the non-carnivorous diners and there is also a kid's menu for young diners. Beyond burgers lies an impressive array of dishes for every palate such as the Smoked BBQ Brisket Sandwich, Grouper Sandwich and Chicken Meatballs & Spaghetti. Brunch is served on Saturday and Sunday from 11am-3pm and signature items include Croissant French Toast, Chocolate Chip and Banana Pancakes with chocolate sauce, whipped cream and powdered sugar and a Fat Pig Omelette with smoked bacon, cheddar and caramelized onions. Wash it all down with 18 different beers on tap, ten different bottled beers, five different cans and a wide selection of wines by the glass. Best of all there are no pitchers at Mel's only reusable 32 or 64 ounce Growlers of Beer. Yes, we are environmentally friendly.
