About Us

Bridgeport’s own Merritt Canteen has been welcoming visitors to its Main St. location since 1942 offering all of its original favorites such as hot dogs, hamburgers, fries, and seafood, and a host of new items that are sure to become classics such as bison burgers, sweet potato fries, and the best chili and clam chowder around! You can check out the regular menu Here.

The Canteen is a well-known stop for visitors frequenting many of Bridgeport’s attractions including the Beardsley Zoo and The Arena at Harbor Yard.
