“Best pizza within 10 miles of Hampden. So happy i walked in to try something new. Pizza crust is delicious. Cut in rustic manner. Subs had great bread.Going to be my new regular pizza place.Parking can be rough during dinner rush.Cold pizza the next morning, might have been even better than the night before. WINNER WINNER PIZZA DINNER!Parking: 3 spots in front of restaurant.”

“The biscottis are delicious, we bought chocolate chip w/o almond or anise flavor and chocolate drizzle on almond biscottis has a delicate almond flavor, perfect crunch!”

“I go at least once a week. I usually have sesame chicken and crab rangoon. I love the crab rangoon and the chicken is ok, just a little over cooked. The other chicken dishes are better. There’s usually a kid or two around, and their stuff. Well behaved kids.I eat in. There isn’t much atmosphere, just the basics. I’m there to get out of the house. They leave me alone. No trying to upsell.”

“A great little place for breakfast or lunch! They are open until 1 every day except Sunday when they close at 12:30. The service is great! My order was out quickly considering how busy the restaurant was. There aren't a lot of tables, but there always seems to be one available when you go in. The burgers are fantastic, as well as their breakfasts. The prices are very reasonable as well. Check out the mug 'n' muffin, you will not be disappointed!”

“Beth's is a "go to" for those Friday night fish sandwiches and seasoned fries!Super friendly wait staff and clean surroundings, always a good visit.Wheelchair accessibility: Nice gradual ramp makes access easy and safe.”

“I found Danielle on simple google search and it was the best thing I did. I reached out ot her to help me since I live in NJ and would have to do this remotely, but she answered all of my many questions and spent a ton of time with me to go over what I was looking for. Her customer service is top notch & her cakes & cookies are just delicious! I ordered a carrot cake & the flavor was great and the size was perfect for such a small gathering. The cake was moist & flavorful! I also ordered custom cookie that I can rave enough about. they where beautiful! EVEN THE PACKAGING WAS PROFESSIONAL AND VERY CUTE! exactly what I wanted. Usually custom cookies are hard & too sweet, Danielle's cookies where soft & not super sugary! these where a perfect addition to our party! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! you wont be disappointed!”

“What a nice place to come and relax after work.The locals are very nice. I happened past this venue while on the way to a warehouse a short distance away; I walked up. When I discovered there was no food to be had, the patrons brainstormed and one fellow came up with a local Chin food joint that delivers.But here's the true blessing, that same gentleman , Rodney, bought me some food and refused to accept $$.. The following comes to mind from a very nice inspiring fellow TO WIT:" For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, "This is a truly a great place to visit.FMCSA disclaimer: alcoholic beverages were not consumed”

“I was at the bar. I did not have a meal, just a few alcoholic beverages. The band was great. Unfortunately the drinks were on the weaker side but delicious. It was very busy and somewhat difficult to get service because of the crowd. Prices of the drinks were reasonablle.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a huge step to go into the club.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Maria's Pizzeria & Seafood, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish.Firstly, I ordered their Buffalo Chicken Pizza with blue cheese, and it was a flavor explosion! The pizza arrived piping hot and freshly made, with a generous amount of toppings. The combination of the tangy buffalo sauce, succulent chicken, and creamy blue cheese was simply divine.My coworker opted for the fish sticks and meatballs, and they were equally impressed. The dishes arrived hot and steamy, indicating their freshness, and according to my coworker, they were incredibly tasty.Let's talk about the pizza itself – it was loaded with cheese and bursting with flavor. The crust was the perfect balance of soft and crunchy, enhancing every bite with its delicious taste and texture.What truly stood out, though, was the exceptional service we received. The girl who took our order was not only efficient but also incredibly sweet and friendly. She made sure to check on us throughout our meal, ensuring everything was to our satisfaction.Another aspect I appreciated was their support for other businesses. It was heartwarming to see them advertising other companies' business cards on the tables, showing their commitment to the community.In conclusion, Maria's Pizzeria & Seafood offers not only amazing pizza but also top-notch customer service. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience. Bravo to the team for exceeding expectations! ?”

“This shop is a joy to visit. Positive atmosphere at the walk in or drive up. Always good food and great coffee.Parking: Good parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Great HP access.”

“It's at a highway rest stop, so expectations shouldn't be too high. At least they're open on Sundays! Sandwich was fine - typical "fast food" style sub. A little lighter on meat than the best sandwiches but just fine. The bread was okay, seemed a little crispy like it wasn't the freshest bread but okay. Why didn't they cut it all the way through? I don't know but places like this often leave a part of the bread not quite cut all the way through which annoys me but isn't a major issue.”

“Everyone working there is really really nice and the place was very clean and cozy.The Veal was fantastic, the cheese cake and lemon Chelo cake both blew me away!!!!”

“The food is delicious, always have a juicy burger, the waitresses are so friendly and do such a fantastic job serving. The atmosphere is great friendly warm. I highly recommend stopping here!”

“Great spot for breakfast and brunch! Awesome sandwiches and coffee on the go or even a place to eat. I highly recommend and well worth the price!! You get what you pay for. Give it a chance! Won’t be disappointed. Always great to support a small business. Also, friendly owners too”

“The food here is amazing and the employees are super nice and friendly and they always try to get to know everyone and treat you like family. The place is very clean and well decorated and has a nice vibe to it, and this place is so popular that it's always full of nice people and sometimes you have to make reservation and what's great is they will call and let you know when there's the free spot in everything super amazing. I highly recommend you coming here and checking it out”

“I have to mention the person who assisted us. As two weary travelers on "The Pike" my wife and I became hungry and stopped at this location. We were a bit undecided as to what to get but Robin, who was working the counter, was both patient and friendly while helping us decide. She did a fantastic job of helping us and going above and beyond by checking on us after being served. She is absolutely the type of person the public should interact with and should be recognized for her efforts. Robin, YOU ARE A ROCK STAR!!!!! Great Job and Thank You!!!!!”

“First time here. Clean well lit dinning area. Amazing food. Very flavorful, good portion sizes. Definitely enough for leftovers.Wheelchair accessibility: There are ramps to sidewalk and no steps into building.”

“The food was amazingly good as far as what was ordered. I can only imagine how good the next order will be, can’t wait. Closest to Bx, Ny‘s Chinese I’ve had in 25 yrs!!!”

“Just Love this establishment! Food, Service & Atmosphere was Exceptional.I had the Ribeye, and my other 2 family members had the Tortellini Rosa & The Lamb Gyro. Also, excellent spinach dip. The portions were huge! Enough to bring home for a 2nd meal. I highly recommend this restaurant !!!”

“While I may have a bias as a six year server at the Steaming Tender, I am truly blessed to be a part of our team. My fellow servers are genuinely friendly and eager to learn, each bringing their authentic personality and sense of professionalism to the table. Our bartenders mix and match with the best of them, whether you fancy one of our rotating local draft beers, a seasonally curated cocktail, or a classic mocktail for those lighter days, they'll prepare you a beverage that will hit the spot with finesse, know-how, and a great conversation. Our chefs are some of the hardest working people I know, consistently innovating and executing a complex array of well-crafted dishes. They can have a seemingly endless amount of orders coming into their kitchen and still put their hearts and souls into every diner's plate. And the best part is, our dishwashers work seamlessly behind the scenes, ensuring you needn't worry about a thing. Steaming Tender is fully family owned and operated and it shows. Our management values input, seeks new ways to expand and improve, and strive to create a positive work environment. Lastly, but certainly not least, the preservation of this historical landmark of Palmer keeps our rich American history alive. I truly believe H.H. Richardson and Frederick Law Olmsted would be proud. If you appreciate delicious food, delightful service, and a deep dive into local history I encourage you to choo-choo-choose the Steaming Tender.Vegetarian options: Seasonal salads, secret garden veggie burger, basil pomodoroDietary restrictions: Vegan options, gluten free options. Accommodating kitchen.Kid-friendliness: Kids will love watching the trains go by, the birthday song, and sitting in the shoe shine station. The patio in the summer time is always a wow moment as well. Be sure to check out the grounds filled with antique stagecoach, train memorabilia, and genuine 1915 Porter Locomotive.Wheelchair accessibility: Sloped area in the curbing next to the red dining car, beside handicap parking.”

“I went there today for breakfast with my mom and my brother The Foods is delicious one of the best the Waiter is awesome one of the most nicest and helpful person We will go there from now on Glad we decided to eat breakfast there lots of Good Selection of foods good ”

“007's a little doughy for my liking. Same for egg rolls. Everything else was good. Got 2 dinners @ $12.50/EA and split. It was around 8pm so it was quiet. My friend used the Ladies room and she said it was kinda dirty. I usually get dinners ToGo. For about $26 I have enough for days. Love Chinese leftovers!”

“just happened to discover this cute little coffee shop. Service was good, sweet pup met us we walked in, sandwiches were perfect, coffee was delicious! Will be going back.”

“Had dinner here last week and really enjoyed it. A nice change from large-scale mass-production restaurants. Only 8 tables here so we really felt taken care of my our server and the food was fresh and classic Italian. Not a super fancy place but nice family run restaurant. Definitely will come back!”

“So the ice cream is Grand at Rice Farm. You might even find some things you won't find elsewhere. The atmosphere inside and outside is so inviting. And service is very good. You have a moment to splurge on yourself? Take yourself to Rice.”

““Oscar’s Special” Grinder is our go-to. A little A-1 and you’d think you’re eating a steak and cheese. We’ve had a good portion of the menu over the years and Everything is delicious!”

“Upon entering Reid's Corner it looked like there were two types of seating to choose from; bar- or booth-styles. For a big person like myself booths are normally naot my style because of said spacing between the back of the booth & the edge of the table can be less than generous more often than not. Until I spotted a hallway leading to another room with tables & more booths & I asked for a table with no objections.Their three page menu had a lot to choose from. From omelets to breakfast bowls to biscuits & gravy ("breakfast bowl" -think of the "toppings" in the bottom of a pasta bowl with your eggs, the way you like them [I like mine over-easy] on top) with your choice of toast (white, wheat or rye). "Bottomless" coffee is 3 bucks extra & for a slight up charge, you also can get biscuits or a muffin or " toast" replacement offers; except pancakes (there is no side or "stack" sizes of pancakes offered, which is strange for a breakfast place). There is also biscuits & gravy, corned beef hash & other combinations of egg-style dishes to choose from.Reid's Corner also serves up lunch if you are not a breakfast person, as well.Overall the atmosphere, friendliness & attentive of the waitress staff, cleanliness of the restroom, were 5-stars. But it can get pricey with all the upgrades they offer since sit down & serve breakfast places in that general area of Massachusetts are scarce.However, I cannot wait to go back & try Reid's version of biscuits & gravy & their take on an Irish Bowl, not to mention trying them for lunch in the near future...Cheers!Parking: There are a few spots near the entrance to Reid's Corner. There is a step up from the parking lot to the sidewalk entrance. There is plenty of parking if you do not mind walking a few hundred feet from the main parking area, however.Wheelchair accessibility: There are no handicap spots in front of the entrance way of Reid's, because of how the "stripmall"(?) was designed. But it is doable.”

“I have been here a few times over the last year and a half. Every time the food has been great, the staff has been fantastic, and the portions for the price have been remarkable. Stop in if you haven't been by!”
