The Duck Inn

American restaurant · Bridgeport

"It’s a known fact that hot dogs and burgers are best enjoyed outdoors. That’s why eaters flock to this Bridgeport’s tavern’s lovely backyard patio. Well, that and the ramped-up comfort foods from chef Kevin Hickey. His signature Duck Inn dog is dragged through a garden of Chicago-style toppings and can be made with its original duck fat and beef dog or chicken and vegan options, while the Up & Over pays tribute to In-N-Out Burger’s Double-Double Animal Style. Beverage options range from sparkling crémant by the glass to Hamm’s on draft furthering the versatility of this neighborhood spot." - Naomi Waxman
