What happened after Man v. Food?
GoldBurgers was one of three Connecticut stops in the Man v. Food episode that aired February 22, 2022, with contemporaneous coverage from the Bristol Press identifying the visited location as GoldBurgers' restaurant in Newington, Connecticut, part of a small Connecticut burger chain that, per its own website, has served the area since 2009. The chain's Newington location, at 1096 Main St, remains listed as an active restaurant on GoldBurgers' official site, and Yelp's Newington listing, updated September 2026, carries 661 reviews with no closure notice. A separate location branded "GoldBurgers on Capitol," at 399 Capitol Ave in Hartford proper, is a different address under the same small chain; Yelp's listing for that Capitol Avenue location, updated August 2026, marks it permanently closed, but that is a distinct restaurant from the Newington location the show actually visited.
