“The best food, atmosphere, and people!”

“A Mixed Bag of BBQ Bliss at Rusty Can with some seriously delicious food, but a few quirks keep it from being a perfect experience. I'd give it a solid 4 stars overall, primarily because the food is an undeniable 5-star affair. Let's start with the fantastic eats. We kicked things off with the chili and cheese tater tots, hush puppies, and smoked wings, all of which were a hit. For our main courses, we both ordered from the daily specials. My husband raved about his smoked turkey club sandwich, and my pork belly and mojo chicken tacos were absolutely incredible. Seriously, no complaints whatsoever about the quality or flavor of the food – it's top-notch BBQ! However, the experience was slightly let down by the service, which I'd rate 3 stars, and a particularly frustrating issue with the drink offerings. Our waitress was prompt in taking our initial drink order and kept our glasses topped off, but she did so silently, never checking in to see if we were ready to order our food. We actually waited a full 30 minutes before we could place our food order, which felt excessive. My biggest gripe, though, is with the drink selection, especially the water. The menu lists sparkling water, and we even saw a box of Saratoga sparkling water on display. Yet, when we tried to order it, our waitress informed us it was "just for the owner." When I inquired about the menu's sparkling water, she clarified it was just "soda water from the fountain." And the only bottled water available was Dasani – double yuck for those who prefer something else! It felt really off that the higher-quality option was displayed but reserved exclusively for the owner. For someone who doesn't drink soda or beer, this is a surprisingly big deal. They don't even offer juice for kids, which seems like an oversight. While the food at Rusty Can is truly exceptional and makes it worth a visit, I might hesitate to return unless they significantly improve their water options. It seems like a minor detail, but for many, it makes a big difference.”

“the Food is very good BUT too expensive for what you get. I ordered a Fisherman's Platter and it was like a single plate. I can go to many other places and spend a lot less for a lot more! The people are very nice there so I wish them well! If I win the Lottery I'll be back! too $$$$$”

“An excellent Massachusetts wedding venue! I'm a wedding photographer and had the pleasure of photographing one of my couple's weddings at Grove. I love it so much that I had to write a venue guide about it on my website.

Everything was great, from visiting one partner in Briar Barn Inn (where they were getting ready) right up until the dance party portion of the reception.

The staff were very kind (to the couple and to the vendors) and everything ran smoothly. I was particularly impressed by how they handled plan changes: this wedding took place during the first storm of the season, so I just had to get the couple outside for some snow pictures. This was no problem though, which was great.

I highly recommend Grove at Briar Barn Inn for your wedding. This cozy venue will take care of you on your big day!”

“An Ipswich staple, they have the best sandwiches and roast beef. Always good for grabbing a cheesesteak, roast beef, or chicken salad to name a few of my favorites!”

“My go-to restaurant for great food and drinks. Their staff is so friendly and the salsa is unique and delicious!”

“14 for a Birthday Dinner, catered last night. Just exceptional food and service; meal delivered from amuse bouche to Peach Pies. Outstanding!!!”

“been in nearly every week since they first opened. Hands down, favorite ramen place and the vibes are perfect. We love the bowls too, hearty and always packed with flavor! It’s a must when in hampton.”

“It is so wonderful to hear that the Agawam Diner is still in business. I grew up in Portsmouth, NH and from 1975?-1989, my mother had to take me for a periodic checkup to an allergy physician in Danvers and most every time on the way back home we would stop at the diner to have something to eat. I am now 55 and living in Florida, but I will never my several visits to the Agawam Diner. For those that haven't eaten there yet, do yourself a favor and stop in. You will not be disappointed”

“Great beer great people - stop by and have a pint”

“Went yesterday for the 1st time & WOW!! Best fried clams & scallops I have ever had!! I have to say they were "sweet" and out of this world! Friendly place & Mary was a great server!!”

“It is a hidden gem! food & service was amazing! very personable! we will be back! muchos gracias! ❤️”

“Awesome place, Amesbury is very lucky to have you! Thanks for hosting us. Look forward to our next event with you!”

“We love Bar25. When ever we have guests stay with us in Newburyport we make sure to end the weekend with a night at Bar25. It’s so much more than a place to eat. The food is out of this world, and the whole energy in the room is perfection. We love bringing our friends here because it’s an experience. Bar25 is producing what so many restaurants wish they could do. 10/10 from the food, the drinks, the staff and the vibe.”

“Motown tunes fill the air as one approaches this renowned eatery featuring seafood in the rough. I had the fish and chips--fresh, hot, delicious! Counter service is warm, down-to-earth and efficient. I do find myself wishing there were a few more vegetable and dessert offerings to round out one's meal; the ice cream shop out back has been closed when I've visited.”

“Great handmade ice cream! Love the window art.”

“Food was delicious!”

“Me.,My good friend and his mom try to go here every week on Saturday.. The food is excellent and Melinda goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome.. I recommend Lucky‘s 100%..”

“Always excellent! Have been coming for 10+ years !”

“Eating inside the restaurant helps make up for me being 0% italian. They greet you like family and you’ll feel the warmth.

Most of the meals we have ordered have been good. We have been upcharged by a lot (doubled the price of an entree) for substitutions like shrimp instead of sausage even when there is a shrimp dish with a similar price to my original order.”

“Delicious lunch with friends, watermelon zinger for the win!”

“Good food, good iced tea, friendly service. Wasn’t as expensive as I thought it would be. Excellent location.”

“Pizza is amazing, the salads are next level and the chicken fingers are the best I’ve ever had. The staff is really nice and you can dine in the restaurant if you want to. This is our go to every time we have friends over love it so much.”

“We stop here every year on our way to our Hampton Beach week vacation . It is handicap accessible for my husband. Prices a little bit high, but portions are generous. Food and service always good.”

“I want to thank the staff here. Your food is absolutely fantastic. And you remembered me even though I had only been there once before. You went out of your way to accommodate me and my dog. I will definitely be back again. Chicken broccoli and ziti is one of the best i have ever had.”

“We drive 45 minutes to & from to eat at the Clam Box. My husband grew up down the street and I worked in town for 15 years. Plus my parents would take me there as a kid. ALWAYS consistent! ALWAYS delicious. 10 out of 10! Worth the wait in line at peak season every time!”

“Great Pizza! I was in your shop on Saturday, 29 Oct. This is what I have been searching for. The pizza reminds me of what I used to get in the 1940's and 1950's at pizzerias and barrooms. Thin, with the cheese and tomato spread right up to the edges. Almost foldable but not stiff. The flavor is satisfying and peaceful with a cold drink. The staff was extremely polite and accommodated me with a spaghetti sauce that was not on the menu. Judging from the continuous phone calls and pick-up orders, a lot of people have already discovered you and share my taste . Keep doing the Good pizzas. What a taste! When you've ordered tastey pizza, you know it at the first bite.”

“This place is one of my favorite places to eat. I could eat their chicken ramen and tofu steamed bun for every meal. My husband likes the kimchi ramen and the seafood ramen.”

“Tasty authentic Thai and reasonable prices. The staff/owners are great!”

“Ipswich Ale Brewery in Ipswich, MA for a flight+ & a pint of some delicious New England suds. This was my first trip here so I was like a kid in a candy store except there was no candy, just a bunch of craft beer. I hadn't tried anything from these guys either, but saw they were only 45min from where I moved recently so I figured I'd make the trip. I had no idea that they had been in operation since 1991, making them the Massachusetts North Shores oldest brewery. They have a bunch of different styles, with ales seemingly being the main focus, but I figured I would try as many as I could. This job is hard, but somebody has to do it. 🍻🍻🔥💪☘

The first taster in my flight of four was the AMERICAN LAGER that I personally thought was excellent & a above average lager for sure. My second 4oz taster was the IPSWICH PILSNER that was another good light offering from these guys. Definitely off to a good start beer wise here so far. The third taster was the BLUEBERRY SHANDY that was just okay, but I'm not big into shandy's or radler's, I may just need to find the right one. The last 4oz I scooped was the CRANBERRY BERET Fruited Sour which was a average sour, I enjoyed it more than the shandy though. I then grabbed a pint of the flagship IPA simply named IPA, a above average delicious offering as far as American IPAs go. I finished off my visit with another 4oz taster of the HELLBOUND Barleywine, a yummy barleywine packed with tons of flavor & notes raisins & caramel. 🍻🍺🔥☘☘

I got a cheeseburger for lunch with tots (one of my many weaknesses) as a side to soak up the beer. The burger was good, but nothing crazy that I would go out of my way for again if I returned to the area. All the usual seating options with a big bar, hightops, tables & patio. The bartender was super friendly & sociable letting us know what was most popular beers were & the beers he personally liked himself. Plenty of beer to go as well for home or tastings with friends. Well worth checking out if you're in the area, they have a style of beer for everyone. 🍻🍻🔥☘✌♥️🍺

BEERGASM RATING - 69/90 🍻🍻🍻🔥🔥🔥🍆🍆🍆💦💦💦🏆☘✌♥️🍺
