About Flipside Burgers & Bar
Founded in 2009 by creator and owner Michael Baffa, Flipside Burgers & Bar began as a true hidden gem tucked away in Fairfield’s Brick Walk—quietly nestled in the back, yet unforgettable to those who discover it. With its vibrant energy, expansive bar, and inviting patio, the Fairfield location quickly established itself as a destination where bold flavors, craft cocktails, and a lively atmosphere come together seamlessly.
In 2020, Flipside expanded to Downtown Milford, bringing that same signature experience to a stunning waterfront setting. The Milford location features a spacious patio overlooking the water, offering the perfect backdrop for great food, handcrafted drinks, and memorable gatherings, quickly becoming a favorite for both locals and visitors alike.

Flipping Expectations Since Day One
Across both locations, Flipside is defined by its commitment to quality, creativity, and consistency. At the heart of the menu, Michael Baffa’s vision comes to life through never-frozen, custom-ground burgers, hand-cut fries, and elevated comfort food made with fresh ingredients and meticulous preparation. Behind the bar, an award-winning cocktail program curated by Stephanie McCool adds a dynamic edge, featuring expertly balanced drinks made with fresh ingredients and imaginative flair. From specialty burgers and inventive appetizers to oversized monster cocktails, indulgent espresso martinis, and ever-changing seasonal specials, Flipside delivers an experience that is bold, memorable, and truly offers something for everyone.
