A new eatery is coming soon to Winsted!
Skippers is planning to open at 898 Main Street in Winsted, the former Red Rooster Saloon space. The seasonal roadside outdoor eatery would serve a diverse menu featuring locally sourced & fresh ingredients. The menu will include burgers, chicken sandwiches, French dip and Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, hand-cut potatoes, and onion rings fried in beef tallow, along with ice cream and frozen desserts. The menu will eventually expand to include premium items such as fried whole-belly clams, salmon, and grilled prime steaks. Guests will enjoy their meals outdoors at covered tables set on beautifully landscaped grounds. A small performance stage is planned for the north side of the property to host live music on weekends. The interior of the building will function exclusively as the kitchen, no indoor dining is being included in this project according to a PZC application submitted late last year. Skipper’s will operate seasonally, opening in early spring each year beginning in 2026 and closing in the fall, weather permitting. Proposed hours of operation are Tuesday–Sunday, 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Year-round, Skipper’s will offer both on-site and off-site catering according to a PZC application submitted late last year. Stay tuned for more details on their opening! Make sure to follow them at Skippers Winsted for more updates as well!
