Our Story
Daniel Van Kruiningen and Kenneth Fontaine combined their professional backgrounds, love of food and drink and their close friendship… and created Chapter One Food & Drink in August of 2016.
Located in the heart of downtown Mystic just past the infamous Mystic Drawbridge, Chapter One Food & Drink offers something desirable for everyone. From vegan/gluten free options to dry-aged steaks to fresh seafood, this restaurant and bar has a vibe unlike any other in Mystic. With 24 beers on tap, daily specials and friendly atmosphere, it is a restaurant for all, from family and friends to business meetings to private parties.
The team at Chapter One strives to give guests a fantastic experience with top of the line service, an enjoyable experience and excellent food & drink of course!
Their second restaurant, which opened in June of 2018, is located on the Guilford Green at 25 Whitfield Street, Guilford, CT.
