All of them do one thing right: a lunch special that makes you cancel your afternoon plans. I drove across Connecticut to find the ten best, and every single mile was worth it. Every visit to Rein’s feels like a small celebration of old-school lunch culture done right and done well. Classic diner dishes anchor the lunch menu with comfort and reliability. Lunch hours run on weekdays from 11:30 AM to 2:30 PM, with weekend lunch listed from noon to 3:00 PM.
