The Choo Choo Lounge was named to pay homage to Old Saybrook and its rich history of train travel dating back to 1871 through the 1920s. Guests from New York would travel the Valley Railroad line to enjoy the menu and accommodations at the famous Pease House, located across from the main Saybrook Point Resort, where the Villas are located today.
The imagery of this era has been re-created by the two commissioned murals painted by local artist Tony Falcone of the No. 2 train coming across the tracks from Fenwick and the Roundhouse turning station, which was just north of Saybrook Point. Interior designer Lisa Silver has created a bygone-era ambiance, which is complemented by classic cocktails originally documented by Connecticut-born Jerry Thomas in the first-ever publication of cocktail recipes in 1862. The 30 ft. bar is accentuated by an authentic Les Zinc pewter bar top, made only in one place worldwide at Ateliers Nectoux in France.
The Choo Choo Lounge is available for private functions and exclusive use. To inquire about this space for a private event, contact: [email protected] or call us (860) 388-0000.
