Restaurants near Northbridge

“Had a great Chocolate Chip here the past couple of years, and it's my go-to. Seriously delicious. Most recently, I decided to try the Rocky Road and was sadly disappointed. For some reason, they added almond extract - much too much almond extract that left bitter notes lingering on the palette. Unfortunately this overpowered everything else including the chocolate; a chocolate based ice cream should be chocolate forward. Instead of actual toasted almonds, which would have given that pleasing pop of nutty almond flavor, they used walnuts that, naturally, got soft and spongy. I had to try and figure out what that strange texture was that I was biting into. The marshmallow was some sort of sauce, had a very slimey mouth feel to it, and there was way too much in it turning the cone into a slimy, instead of creamy, treat. I don't think I've ever thrown out ice cream before until then. And it makes me sad because it's so simple to make an excellent Rocky Road. I honestly believe I chose the worst possible alternative, and thats completely on me (but if you want to bring someone you hate a treat, bring them this one).

Service here is always excellent, the staff is friendly, the portions are good, and they do a great job overall.”

“honestly one of my favorite restaurants of all time, the prices, service and hospitality are all equally great. if I lived there I'd go there pretty much every day, never had a bad meal from there.”

“They have the BEST karaoke on Friday nights! we have been to karaoke pretty much everywhere locally and NO ONE has the sound and the light show this guy has! He makes everyone sound good no matter what their karaoke skill level is!!! I highly recommend the Gray barn!!!”

“Looking 👀 for a great place to have lunch or dinner with great value for awesome food and a friendly staff ?? Look, no more! The Valley Pub has what you are looking for!! Serving alcohol and non alcohol beverages to go with your meal, not to mention the great staff who 99% of the time remembers your name and drink when you have visited them more than once or twice. The portions are no match for the value and the quality of the food they serve at the pub is always fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming to all who walk through the doors.”

“I always have a great experience at Harry's! Best pizza and subs in the area! 😃”

“They’re back! The re-opening last night was awesome. Renovations made during the Covid shutdown were well worth the wait! New floors, decor, bar, and an impressive new tap system offering craft beer, hard cider and traditional beer offerings!”

“Finally! Best steak and cheese sub. So good. Calzones are excellent 👌”

“This is the closest place to my home. Today we ordered and paid at the counter for a couple subs for late lunch/early dinner. Made in 10 minutes, and on our way. Sandwiches have always been good.”

“Everyone here was fantastic, they even made me a drink that was on an older menu they were not doing anymore. Food portions were big and prices were good. All of the locations for this restaurant have been excellent and it is my favorite place to get Japanese. The KFC roll in particular is super good”

“Chowder - creamy, tons of clams, very tasteless
Clam cake - my very favorite, hot and tons of clams meat in the cake
Fish taco - incredible flavor , with cold slaws, and pickle onion is a great addition
Clam strips - tender, crisp, tastes awesome together with the tartar sauce provided”

“First time there today. Breakfast all day is great for me. Owner was charming and the cook had a smile. I'll be back.”

“A wonderful family-owned restaurant with consistently great food and attentive service. The owners are clearly dedicated to quality and care about their customers. Always a pleasure to support this local gem. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Its okay, but needs more Chinese food flavor tbh, not enough msh.. maybe oil to clean or lack of peanut oil . However good american food cuisine, just wanted a nore authentic Asian american cuisine food feel”

“Stopped in during the lunch rush last Thursday. Young man attending me was on point. Polite, could clearly hear and understand him, greeted me with a smile. I think his name was Taylor. Not sure, as I wasn't focusing too hard on the tag, but his demeanor was great. Food was also on point. Quarter pounder looked and tasted great, fries were crisp and hot. Compliments all around. Keep up the good work.”

“MOTW has the best chai in the city. I love the soft, creamy, silky texture of their Yemeni chai. I love the way they decorated the 38th st location, very inclusive and powerful pictures. Great spot to get some work or reading done. Also love their prayer or meditation area. It’s such a wonderful coffee shop. Usually Raadia is there when we go and she’s such a kind and friendly soul, always so helpful and customer focused.”

“The server we had last night was the biggest jerk and should be fired. We left after being clearly discriminated by your staff. We’ve been coming here for years but will never be back after yesterday’s experience. Ricardo was a complete jerk and should not be in the restaurant business.”

“Great dining experience, authentic Italian food and great service.”

“Picked up a Bolognese pizza for takeout from Pizzeria Bruno in Sutton & wow — comfort food done right 🍕✨ A rich, slow-cooked meat sauce spread generously over a perfectly crisp base, bubbling mozzarella, & that unmistakable just-out-of-the-oven aroma that fills the car on the drive home. Every bite was hearty, savoury, & seriously satisfying — the kind of pizza that feels like a warm hug after a long day. Simple, indulgent, & absolutely worth the takeaway run. Sutton, you’re lucky to have this spot. 🤍🔥”

“Amazing food and delicious coffees. From great service to a cozy atmosphere. This is my new favorite spot. 10/10 will be stopping by again soon!”

“Amazing Indian vegetarian. As authentic as it gets”

“Our first time to Arcos and were delighted to have Anthony & Christina as our bartenders. What a great time enjoying conversation with both, as well with Mark. Will definitely be back again soon.”

“The food was amazing and my husband and I cannot wait to go back. We both had the beef tenderloin which was cooked to prefection with delicious sides to accompany the meal. The bread was mouthwatering and I could not resist a few pieces! We had the arancini to start and next time, I will order my own plate; I wanted more - no sharing again! I had the amazing carrot cake and my husband had the Godive chocolate cheesecake. I am not a cheesecake lover but ended up determined to order it next time; it was amazing and decadent beyond my expectation. I am planning on taking my daughter here when she visits in December; she will love. I want to try every dish; I plan on dining here loads of times:)”

“Hands down the best and most consistent taco spot in Worcester don't believe me go try it for your self and I recommend the birria nachos I wish I could give this place 10/10”

“Bought a six pack today. There was a woman named Jazmin that assisted us. She was very pleasant, as was the other person working with her. She was multitasking and making cookies between helping customers as they arrived at the same time too. Very efficient. We will be back!!”

“The goat cheese, fig and carmelized onion sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I’ve had anywhere! My husband’s Mac and cheese was also good. But get the sandwich. So good! And the woman at the counter was very nice as well.”

“Went for the first time today and fell in love! The service, food and tea are top notch! We will definitely be back ☕️🫖”

“Called different bakeries in the area looking for a blueberry bourbon cobbler I had tried at a Boston Restaurant and she was able make it happen in less than 24 hours. Didn’t charge me much either for a good size too. Definitely will try again and recommend. Great service, fresh ingredients at a reasonable price.”

“Churrascaria Tropeiro's Grill - Worcester did not disappoint. The buffet had great options despite being smaller. The caipirinha was amazing. All the sides were tasty, but the real stars were the churrasco-style meats. The pichana, sausage, chicken hearts, and beef ribs were all outstanding. This restaurant is worth the hype - everything was seasoned perfectly. We were stuffed by the end.”

“Hosted an absolutely perfect private event at 111! Our servers Nicole and Sam were truly wonderful and the food was outstanding as always. Maria who handles their events was super helpful and made the process so easy.”

“Cha Cha n Beans is amazing, it is me and my friends meeting spot. The boba is Delicious and you should go”
