I am a driver in New Haven, DoorDash is currently running a promotion where you will receive a $600 bonus if you are REFERRED as a new driver in the Hartford area. The catch is that you have to complete 290 deliveries within 60 days of being referred. DoorDashing is a great opportunity for anyone who has circumstances that do not allow them to work a normal 9-5 such as school or taking care of a loved one. Let me know if you have any questions about the opportunity.
Hi all – I'm conscious that this is a big ask, but reaching out here with a plea to the Reddit and broader community. I'm desperate yet hopeful to find a donor for my needed kidney transplant. I’ve been fighting kidney failure since 2005 from my initial diagnosis and my health has now reached the stage where I am in imminent need of a transplant for the best chance to live.
If you or someone you know is Blood Type O (+ or -) and willing to consider kidney donation, you’d be saving my life. Feel free to DM me and can discuss more details, donors can be located anywhere in the US and I am registered at Hartford Hospital the procedure.
The associated costs of evaluation, surgery, travel, and lost wages will be covered by my insurance and various programs and you will have a separate team of healthcare professionals that will evaluate you as a living donor. They will help you understand the associated risks and benefits and ensure your well-being in the eval / procedure.
Thanks again to all who are able to help / read / promote.
I just found out about Parkville Market so me and my wife are making a trip up to Hartford on Saturday to check it out (from southeast CT). Planning to get a hotel and stay in the area so we can turn up for a night lol. I’m looking for peoples opinions on good bars around that area, and any events or other places that would be fun for an early 30s child-free couple. Thanks!
Anyone gone to an XL center event with someone who’s handicapped? Looking for tips on parking etc.
Hey all! So MA is getting far too expensive to stay in long term. Ive been eyeing CT in general and am going to visit Hartford this weekend to see how it feels!
Im a leftist queer late twenties woman into art and hiking. Anyone have any thoughts on if Hartford is good for this kinda scene? Im looking more at West Hartford but honestly really have no real knowledge of the area.
Outside of this, feel free to share your experiences living in Hartford in general!
What happened to Holiday Light Fantasia last year (2023)? Is it happening this year? Is it gone for good? Thank you!
I want to try more coffee shops in Hartford area! Surrounding towns too. I need a life changing iced coffee/latte today so i can ease my election day nerves lol. Any good matcha places too would be appreciated! I've been going to RaonJena but want to explore more good options. Thank you!!!
Recently moved out here and my polling location is the library. Are lines usually bad? I’m trying to gauge how long I’ll need to be there.
So basically I got an internship at Pratt & Whitney and it’s 3 months and I’m coming from Florida. Would like to know if anyone knows any area by East Hartford near the location and/or if they lease for 3 months (sublease is also good). Thank you all
Looking for a few civic-minded New Englanders to knock on doors in PA tomorrow (transportation provided). Our votes up here don't make a difference towards the electoral college (CT will assuredly vote blue). But every vote counts in Pennsylvania, and turnout could well determine the next president.
If you'd rather that person be Kamala Harris, or especially if you prefer that it is not Donald Trump, consider joining us as we make sure to get out the vote.
The event organizers have arranged for a free 8AM bus to take fellow concerned citizens to and from PA to encourage voters there to show up for democracy. We're gathering near the Macy's at the Westfarms Mall in Farmington. Consider joining us!

Anybody in Hartford driving down to the Latto concert interested in carpooling? It will be my boyfriend and I. We would be happy to split gas and parking.
I live in another state and want to buy a gift card for someone who lives around Union Place who is having knee surgery so that they can choose restaurants and have their food delivered. I don't know if Grub Hub or Door Dash or a local company is best and can bring it up to the fourth floor to the apartment. I appreciate your help
Going to be in town tomorrow, any one know of any artists that take walk ins? Just for a 2 inch line art piece
Hey all,
Does anyone happen to know anything about 55 Elm Club? Interested in that apartment but since it's fairly new and there's little conversation about it, I'm not sure if I should move forward or not. I'm also looking into Spectra Park, Plaza, and potentially Pearl. The Revel, Sage Allen, and Park and Main. Looking for a lower price range, a safe area, and can only do virtual tours so I'm skeptical.
Looking for a gym partner i wanna start going back to the gym
Recommend a couple places to eat so I won't forget Hartford or Connecticut. No preferences, but at least 1 seafood place. Bonus points for ambience. Also I'm old , so I prefer chill place. Ok, I guess I gave a couple preferences 😁
I'm ok with driving 1-2 hours away from Hartford.
Update: Max's fish : tried bacon Brussels sprouts and sampler of oysters,/clams/etc delicious
Non recommended but great also was:
flock and herd: burnt end pork and shrooms burger, and nice IPA fuzzy baby ducks
Saybrook fish house: mussels Florentine and raw oysters- yummy
Hey yall, I moved to Hartford in the past year and have tried a few different nail shops using yelp and Google but nothing I’m happy with. Main requirement is they do acrylics bc of my job’s stress on nails. I’d prefer no more than 90 for full set including tip but can do 100. I don’t need intricate nail art, basic gel color works fine. I don’t care about location or if it’s a hole in the wall spot as long as it’s sanitary. Don’t care if they speak English beyond nail terminology. Thanks in advance, you’ll be my hero if you can help💛
Hey all! I am going to be working an internship in the summer of 2025 (May to August) in East Hartford. I am hoping to secure some form of housing for that short time. Where I am from (and I imagine the same for Hartford) it is nigh on impossible to get an apartment lease for less than a year. What would you all suggest for securing a place to sleep for the summer? I have a decent budget and hope to have some form of kitchen but if it comes down to it, I can live without.
Any help would be appreciated!
Hey everyone! I was trying to find some cute and aesthetic coffee shops around the area of Hartford and Storrs (and other surrounding areas) for someone to do work in a nice environment so I would love some recommendations (and if you like any coffee drinks you would suggest let me know as well!)
Is there some giant contingent of people that commute to springfield from hartford? I just dont get how its borderline LA traffic every day.

Hi, I am moving back to CT after being out of the state for the last 8 years.
Does anyone know of a complex that would be worth taking a look at? There is a lot to sort through online and I am currently starting my search while out of state.
I will be working downtown so it would be great to be able to walk to work.
Any recommended hot yoga studios in the Rocky Hill, Manchester, or Glastonbury area? I tried Hartford Sweat in downtown but was not a fan.
Hey custy folks. I'm going to go see Bridge City Sinners in Hartford on the 5th (I know, I know, I didn't think about the date when I booked) but the two other people I was going with can no longer go, soooooo any cool cats and/or kittens and/or non-binary feline people want two tickets?
DM me if you're interested
Hey guys, I am new to the city and it’s my friends birthday. He likes anime.
Can anyone suggest me great bakery that makes it customized and has the best chocolate cake as I want it to be chocolate flavored.
Please suggest me some great place under $100!
Can anyone recommend a place that does New Haven style pizza? I saw Frank Pepe’s but seems spot on whether it is good or not. We are here for a couple more days and wanted to try it without having to drive to New Haven.
Hey everyone, thanks for all the suggestions and info. We ended up at Frank Pepe’s in WeHa and it was a damn tasty pie. We went with half Quattro Formaggio and have Pepperoni and olives. Happy to report it was delicious.
