i went there for a show (which the concert was amazing) but i ordered 3-4 shots and 1 beer, and got charged a whopping $140, i didnt notice at the time but i reached out about it after to no avail. my friend was lucky to notice they did this to her tab too before we left. some inexperienced bartender rang up a bunch of other peoples drinks on our tabs. CHECK YOUR SLIP BEFORE YOU PAY HERE PEOPLE!

Deep Cuts is an institution in Medford and a shining hub of local and touring musicians. Their friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere have hosted many great nights for the few years they have been in town. The food is hearty and satisfying. The beer is creative and quirky. The games keep everyone occupied, as well as Pop's pinball hall. Legendary bands have made their way across the country to play here, and local bands can flourish in a supportive environment, with great sound! Many festivals and art pop ups have been hosted at Deep Cuts, and are always a joy. A thriving venue in the community!! Highly recommend stopping in!

They only had one plant based option on the menu, the chickpea meatball sub, and when the bartender asked if I wanted fries I very clearly asked if they fry them in the same fryer as the animal body parts and he said they do and there is cross contamination. I made it clear that I wasn't ok with that and that's why I didn't get the fries. When the sandwich came out it didn't even occur to me the meatballs were fried before I started eating it but then I realized and I asked if they were made in the same fryer and he said sorry they are. He gave me my money back but that doesn't undo the fact that I had consumed animal fat which makes me feel disgusted and this is a problem at too many of these places. It's not actually a vegan option if it has chicken fat on it🤮🤮🤮. These people need to learn. I hope this saves someone else from the same awful violating feeling I've just had.

Some of the best sandwiches and loaded fries I have had. Is such a neat atmosphere with games, photo booths, and pinball machines. Britney gave fantastic recommendations. All around a great spot.
Bless up Deep Cuts. This place rocks, good drinks, good service, great food and a solid venue for comedy acts / bands. Never had a bad time here.

Such a cool business. We tried several sandwiches (sooo delicious), played some pinball, and watched a few shows. They had a variety of brews and we enjoyed several. Will definitely return!
Love the staff. Love the food. Love the atmosphere. Deep Cuts is my fav spot in town.
I've gone for shows, I've gone when shows were happening, I've gone for events (my Bonsai is still thriving) and I've gone just to go.
Food: Never been disappointed in what I have ordered. I love the smash burgers. The roast beef was delectable. The wings are exactly what I want a buffalo chicken wing to be.
Service: Love the bartenders. Super personable and fun to chat with. During busy events they are amicable and do their best to tend to everyone.
Atmosphere: Its a cool punk bar with pinball and records. There is always good music going.
Highly recommend stopping in. On your way out make sure to get a shot of chilled fernet.
I love paper lady
Deep Cuts Review – A Radical Flashback to the ‘70s & ‘80s!
The Queen and I rolled into Deep Cuts last night, and let me tell you—this place is a time warp straight to the glory days of tube TVs, killer pinball action, and cassette tapes! From the moment we walked in, it was like stepping onto the set of a vintage arcade flick, complete with mirrored ceilings, glowing neon, and the sweet, sweet sound of silver balls ricocheting through machines.
The pinball arcade was an absolute blast from the past—rows of classic machines lined the walls, including one old-school beauty with an analog scoreboard (none of that digital nonsense here!). The whole vibe was electric, with the click-clack of flippers and the hum of CRT screens setting the mood. Just outside the arcade, we spotted a pristine vintage pinball-style machine that looked like it had been preserved in a 1978 time capsule.
When we hit the bar area, the retro love kept coming. Bar-height tables, moody lighting, and a killer selection of drinks displayed on two giant TVs behind the counter. The bartenders were cool cats, serving up drinks with a smile and making us feel right at home. And dig this—they’ve got QR code menus, so you can order like it’s the future while vibing in the past. Genius.
Whether you’re a pinball wizard, a vinyl junkie, or just looking for a far-out spot to unwind, Deep Cuts delivers the goods. The Queen and I are already planning our next date night here—because why settle for boring when you can party like it’s 1979?
Final Verdict: If you dig good drinks, killer arcade action, and a heavy dose of nostalgia, Deep Cuts is your spot. 10/10 we would flip again!
Got carry out and everything was delicious thank you!
