“ Was in the area and remembered going to the food truck years ago & it was vey good. I returned for The Old Faithful, which was delicious. I did takeout and staff was friendly and professional. ”
“ My family and I were on the way to Colchester CT to see extended family, and pulled off in Norwich searching for a BBQ place we once visited just off the highway. Sadly, that place has fallen victim to capitalism and is no more, but we had the good fortune to stop in to Brick & Basil. The ambiance was a little weird, they were playing dance/house music, which seemed a little strange for 3:30 on a Saturday, especially based on the other clientele there at the time, but the menu was fairly robust and I was happy to see interesting choices in pizzas (in addition to the old standby of DIY a pie). We ordered the "Pig and Fig", a buffalo pizza, and a custom with grilled chicken. All three pies were absolutely delicious. I love a good wood fired pizza and the crust was perfectly cooked to that slightly charred, bubbly goodness. Minor critiques? The pig and fig could have used a lighter hand with the arugula, but it certainly didn't detract. Other than that perhaps a filter on the water, my iced tea tasted a little chlorinated, likely by virtue of having used utility provided water to make it. We wound up taking a couple of slices of the pig and fig with us, and it was as delicious cold at 11 pm as it was hot and fresh at 3:30. We'd happily return and sing Brick & Basil's praises to others, and who knows, maybe they're out new go-to when we next pass through. Keep up the great work! ”
