Okay, we’re heading out to a bar that I went to back in April of 2013. It used to be called Hogs & Dogs but new owners took it over last year and it is now called, CT’s Grill & Chill.
And once again, we will be driven and accompanied by my friend, Jim/Vern! Always great to have him along and his presence will happen in the very next photo!

Bar Number 48: CTs Grill & Chill, Wednesday, February 25, 2026
There he is, as promised, my friend and tonight’s driver, Jim/Vern!
Jim also picked tonight’s destination, which we are traveling to right now!
(Cue Twilight Zone theme) Signpost ahead…
Here we are at CT’s Grill & Chill on Farmington Road. Let’s go inside and see what’s happening.
Wow, I forgot how spacious it is in here. Let’s belly up to the bar and let the evening begin!
Misty was the friendly bartender on duty and here she is serving me up the first can of Budweiser tonight. I love her smile and I love that shirt too!
Cheers from Jim! He picked another winner this week!
Here’s a shot of the long and winding bar in here and there’s the selection of bottled beers available at the bar.
There’s tables and chairs opposite the bar and wooden booths line the far wall.
They have two pool tables and two dart boards against the wall, lots of fun to be had in here!
There’s the specials for the day and they have weekly drawings in here.
Meanwhile, back at the bar, part one: Jim decided to order some food to go for a late night snack.
There’s another room over here, this place is huge!
There’s more booths back here and a nice selection of gaming machines.
Meanwhile, back at the bar, part two: There’s Jim’s midnight snack, a pulled pork sandwich and mozzarella sticks. The food looks delicious! And the rumors of Jim pulling his pork at midnight are now officially confirmed!
Here’s Misty posing with Kalli, who also bartends, but she’s off duty tonight and just hanging out.
And a final cheers from Jim/Vern as we prepare to call it a night. He picked another great bar, let’s see where he heads us to next week!
We ran into Tyler outside and he said he’s a big fan of the 365 bar tour and I always love to hear that! Thanks, Tyler!
