This place is a Hartford institution. The atmosphere is boisterous without being too loud or rowdy. The food is awesome, old-school Italian. First date? Perfect spot. Out of town guests? Bring them to First and Last. Young kids? Absolutely. Grandparents in town? Bring ‘em over. TRIVIA: Open since 1936, The First and Last Tavern derives its name for its location, being the first tavern inside the town line and the last tavern when leaving the city of Hartford.
