If you’re looking for a fun, affordable reason to head out after work, Marcello’s Italian Eatery in Monroe has you covered. Their new Happy Hour is quickly becoming one of the best-kept secrets in Fairfield County, and once you check it out, you’ll want to make it part of your regular rotation.
Held in the bar area at their cozy Clock Tower Square location, Happy Hour runs Tuesday through Friday, with some exciting specials that make it hard to resist:
- Tuesday–Wednesday: 4–6 PM
- Thursday: All night long
- Friday: 4–6 PM
That’s right — on Thursdays, you can settle in and enjoy the deals all evening long.
Marcello’s Happy Hour drink specials are the perfect way to kick back without breaking the bank.
You’ll find $2 off bottled beers, $3 off drafts, $4 off glasses of wine, $5 off specialty cocktails and martinis, and half-off full bottles of wine (excluding the reserve list). It’s a fantastic chance to explore their full cocktail menu or treat yourself to a nice bottle for the table.
Of course, no Happy Hour is complete without some delicious bites, and Marcello’s new bar menu delivers.
You can snack on Italian favorites like bruschetta, garlic bread with cheese, crispy calamari, clams, Mom’s Meatball Sliders, steak and cheese sliders, pizzas, truffle parm fries, and more. Everything is full of that homemade flavor Marcello’s is known for.
Regulars rave about the food here, from the iconic cheese wheel pasta to the generous portions and friendly service. Guests love the variety of appetizers and entrees, the warm and cozy atmosphere, and the specialty cocktails that are as creative as they are delicious.

Whether you’re gathering with friends, enjoying date night, or just looking for a relaxed spot to unwind, Marcello’s makes it easy. The bar area features high-top tables and a welcoming vibe, with TVs if you want to catch a game and plenty of space to settle in.
Since opening their new location, the DeVellis family has stayed true to their roots, delivering the kind of genuine Italian hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family.
Marcello’s Italian Eatery is located at 477 Main Street, Monroe, CT, in Clock Tower Square.
