Reviews for Founders House Pub & Patio in Milford, CT
Edit Review: I will start here for hopefully the owner to see what just happened upon my roommate calling in as to inquire about... said reviewed items below. An individual named Brian heard our concerns regarding the menu items received and did not offer anycourtesy or compensation for the overall displeasure. Review#1: The "Baked Macaroni and Cheese", @ $19.00 I must confess tobe a Large disappointment. "Baked" was hardly evident in reference to that title. With a Very light evidence of crumbles ontop.(which I must assume is what they actually bake. Not the entire dish. But who am I. I wasnt there to know.) This dish was So cheesey, it was unpleasant. Maybe if it were something I wouldn't make from a box interchanging the pasta as they did, I'dbe more impressed. That's a LOT to charge. The only way to justify this charge was by the quantity and convenience of it beingmade for me. Ultimately, $19 for a glorified Velveeta mac n cheese, is outrageous. I'll give a hard pass if there were a futurevisit. Reviee#2: As for the Banana Foster Butter Cake,@ $12.00 if you like Rum and banana liquor, you'll be in for a treat.The cake could've been made of dung but I wouldn't know it because the liquors were so over bearing. See pics for both. Review#3: My Roommate had the "Open Faced Prime Rib sandwich" @ $17.00 This, she reports to be heavily salted in flavor. And not astender as expected. Review#4: "French Onion Soup" @ $10 She reports to be over seasoned and rather small for a $10 pricepoint. Ultimately, the overall experience was an over priced dis flavored disappointment. Read more
Founders gets it. They have divine cocktails & a creative vast menu. The food + cocktails are outstanding! They offer indoor and... outdoor seating! The grilled polenta & the beet salad are 10/10. They offer $1 oysters every Tuesday & Thursday. Their brunchgame is on point! It's a 3 minute walk from Milford Metro North Station & right in downtown Milford. #supportlocal Read more
Let me start by saying I ordered delivery & maybe this is a dine in only place, but I was not happy with the food I ordered. I... had heard Founders has excellent food & I was skeptical with it being a pub, but the reviews are good as well so I gave it atry. I chose all popular menu items. Seafood bisque, stuffed shrimp, lobster mac & cheese, no dip wings. I only have a pic ofthe bisque & as you can see it’s covered with a layer of oil. Inedible. I tried mixing it, but it would not budge. Thestuffing in the shrimp was pretty bland & the mashed potatoes that came with it tasted like they came from a box. I’m reallynot sure much of the food was freshly prepared tbh. First & last time I will be eating food from Founders. Read more
It is such a pleasure to dine where the employees make you feel like a valued customer. This place is on the top of that list.... Our server, Liz, was professional, knowledgeable and made our time there very pleasurable. The food was also outstanding!Polenta done perfectly, and shrimp that were to die for. We will be back!

My fiancé had a cup of wine and I had a cocktail made with absinthe rinse. Both were amazing choices. We loved the drinks,... atmosphere and server. Server also server me a taster for absinthe since I had never had it before which is veryappreciated. I'm vegetarian and so did not find many things to eat , I visited here after lunch so wasn't looking for any foodanyway. Loved the cocktail and will surely visit again. Read more

Stopped in for early dinner as our first time. Patio seating was really nice and the service was great, though admittedly the... dinner crowd hadn't shown up yet. Everything was fresh, flavorful and cooked exactly to order. The ribeye was a really good cut,marbled with fat. Read more
Always a great spot for a meal accompanied by fast and friendly service. Wide selection of unique cocktails. Outside dining is... an option, weather permitting. Read more
