We tried this place recently & it was awesome! We sat at the bar and had the taco egg roll special to start, I ordered the honey sriracha shrimp bowl (with the sauce on the side because I’m a wimp) & my boyfriend had a spicy chicken sandwich. Everything was delicious & plates were beautiful. The staff was super friendly and helpful in making recommendations! It’s a huge space and would definitely be a fun place for a night out with friends. Highly recommend!

Ever since it has been bought by new owners, I’ve seen a real shift. I loved Savin Rock Roasting Company, don’t get me wrong! Have lived here for 8 years. But you can tell The Breakwall is trying something different when it comes to creating a destination and source of entertainment on the West Haven Shoreline. The Trivia on Tuesdays is the best Trivia I’ve been to in a long time — super old school way of reading out the answers and getting the entire restaurant involved. I’ve enjoyed all the live music they’ve had on Thursdays and Saturdays. And the FOOD (which is the most important thing) is amazing. I love their specials and always get excited when they publish new ones. You have to try all of the different egg rolls they do — the Philly Cheese Steak Egg rolls are to die for. I love their drink choices — always good options on draft. Happy there are some new owners who have respected what residents used to love ab the old restaurant, while bringing a fresh perspective and new life to the West Haven food scene.

Breakwall is amazing. Love the specials that get changed out every two weeks and also amazing burgers and Philly Cheesesteak! Everyone in there is so attentive with anything you need. Melonie is absolutely amazing there we tend to get her the most for service when there. Very attentive and friendly. Nice warm place to go for dinner or apps after a long work day as we are frequent customers here on a weekly basis.

A little slow of a start. But my fiance and I went as it was right near the boardwalk and we were hungry. It's a relatively small place but feels cozy and warm (went during the winter). They have live bands quite frequently and the staff are very nice. The food came out relatively quick after giving our order (about 15-20 minutes). My goodness was my burger wild! Never seen so much beer cheese in my life. Will definitely go back and recommend it if you're in West haven.

The Breakwall is a great addition to the area! Came here today for Sunday lunch and was not disappointed! Delicious food at reasonable prices, all along with a cozy atmosphere. Dawn treated every person who walked in like a regular coming in for the 100th time! We will be back for Sunday brunch once it starts and Tuesday trivia night!

Everything they serviced was excllent..Baked Ziti, Sausage and Peppers, Stuffed mushrooms loaded with seafood, Chicken Marsala, everything was great! We even took home leftovers. The food was great. The service was outstanding. The bar huge and is fully stocked! The staff is great! This is a hidden gem and I would highly recommend to go there. You will not be disappointed. I want to thank the owners, chef, staff, for providing excellent food and service.

A legit gastro pub in West Haven. We need more of this: old favorites and new twists served with a chef's eye for quality in all aspects. The beer selection is a breath of fresh air as well ... more than just IPA's and good local representation. And the specialty cocktails are quality as well. Check this place out.

Ok...I was hesitant but this place...so yum 😋 Garlic bread fondue, Red stag burger- the cream cheese was an awesome idea and the most tender NY strip I have ever had. You gotta try it! Delish 🙂 Glad to see Brandon was there he's got the perfect personality for this place and good luck Tim! So go for the food and take a seat at the bar for the service.
