50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Shirley

“The Bull Run has been a known quantity to me since childhood.. I grew up in Shirley. So when it came time to memorialize my Dad who had passed, I did so in Shirley and got the Bull Run to cater it. Start to finish they were awesome.. advising how to estimate the amount of people and how much food to put out, what kind of food, all the trappings of tablecloth, cutlery etc.. all taken care of. I knew I was going to be distracted in a million different directions, from set up to clean up, the Bull Run people took care of it. We had more than enough very tasty well prepared and presented food and I could devote time to my family and friends. Thank you Bull Run for a beautiful event start to finish.“

“I don’t care what others say, we just got a crispy chicken, bacon, bbq pizza! Omg it was delicious!! I love their pizza“

“Just went to the Lazy Bubble for the first time. It was amazing!! The food, service and ambiance were perfect. Can’t wait to return!“

“Went for first time 3/3/24 and caught the end of the brunch buffet around 4pm. The food was flavorful, fresh, and overall excellent. Something for everyone in that buffet -it's not overly seasoned, and they had several deserts that use natural sweeteners (like dates and figs) with no added sugar. They keep the food areas very well attended and clean. I will be back again and again, what a great find!“

“This has to be my favorite dining experience I can remember in New England. I had never had Korean food in a real dedicated Korean restaurant like this before this so I had no idea how many extras you get! So many delicious free sides with your entre. This is definitely a hidden gem and authentic. The wonderful woman who waited on me made me feel like family and was just delightful. The pricing is beyond reasonable. The food was fresh, portions were hearty, and every last dish was absolute heaven and the best POSSIBLE representation. Nothing let me down and it all FAR exceeded expectations. I don't really write reviews very often but honestly, this place deserves to thrive.“

“Tried their #1 plate tonight! Excellent! I will most definitely be back again!“

“Uno de mis lugares favoritos y ahora aun mas, cuando puedo ir a comer con mi bebe de 7 meses y ella tambien disfruta de la comida y lo mejor es que le encantan los refritos(habichuelas)gracias por siempre tratarnos con tanto cariño. 100% recomendado no se arrepentiran“

“I took my bestie here tonight and had the ABSOLUTE best time!!! The food was amazing (we both use the gluten free menu!!!) the atmosphere was so wonderful and the service was just so beyond!!! Amara was truly one of the BEST servers I’ve ever had-so very kind and attentive and helpful with making everything so perfect and then I believe her name was Camille-came to let us stay longer allowing our wonderful Amara to go home-something I thought was just so very thoughtful & kind-our family has been in the food industry for years and these ladies along with the manager were among the very best I’ve ever had the pleasure of being served by!!! 100% will be back and I give this my highest recommendation!!!“

“This is an experience that can't be beat. Both the luncheon and surroundings are top drawer given what we encountered at our recent visit. Outstanding food and service in every way imaginable. This is a destination that should be on everyone's list. Hint: If Jaegerschnitzel is on the menu, order it... Best of its kind. (The Creme Brule Cheese Cake and Citrus Olive Oil Cake - if you can tolerate the caloric load - are beyond worthy... oh, my!)“

“I loved it here, the service was very nice the food was good, the seating and bathroom were also pretty accessible to larger bodies. We stopped in for brunch, delicious! Also, wasn’t as expensive as I thought it’d be. Found another sort of hidden gem in this area. Pic is some home fries with sausage patties, eggs, bacon, coffee, orange juice, some bread, and strawberry Nutella pancakes.“

“Love the food and service - great place to enjoy a night out“

“Wonderful people, and helpful to the community as well. I appreciate you! 11-5-25“

“This place is amazing! We went to Great Wolf and stopped here for dinner one night. It was the best! The fries and burgers were both 10/10 and the service was the best we've had anywhere in a long time. I wished we lived near here just to eat here again“

“I personally think this place is awesome, especially when it comes to the service alone. I didn’t quite get to experience it as a regular diner, but rather as an event vendor, since I was there capturing a wedding.

The ladies working the event space upstairs, who I believe go by Alisha and Janice (and please forgive me if I got their names wrong!), were absolutely unreal. They were so kind, attentive, and genuinely nice—which is something I honestly don’t encounter too often as a vendor.

They weren’t just friendly and helpful to the guests; they were that way with me as well. They made me feel welcomed, appreciated, and taken care of throughout the event, and that really stood out to me. Great service can make such a difference, and these ladies were a huge part of what made my experience there so positive.“

“I cannot say enough how much I highly recommend this restaurant! It’s truly a hidden gem. Food was absolutely delicious! Don’t skip on their deserts because we had churros and they are so good and very addictive :). The staff were great and so friendly! An amazing experience overall! You will not be disappointed! We can’t wait to go back again!“

“Ordered the crab rangoons, Thai basil chicken fried rice, honey chicken, and drunken noodles. Sooooo good, best crab rangoons I’ve had anywhere, and the Thai basil fried rice was perfect. Our new favorite takeout place!“

“Amazing food in an intimate and lively atmosphere!“

“Went for the first time this past weekend, food was great and so was our waitress!“

“Best Thai food outside of Bangkok...and now that i think about it, i like Similan better than any of the 15 restaurants i've eaten at in Bangkok.“

“(Translated by Google) Rich everything! Fresh and flavored. They hit her with the chicken skewer! I would go back several more times!!(Original)Rico todo! Fresco y con sabor . La pegaron con el pincho de pollo! Volvería varias veces más!!“

“We checked this place out after driving by numerous times.....and we we're not disappointed! It was really yummy and the prices were good. The only thing is if your not paying attention you could get lost,lol😉“

“Great Tacos 🌮 and Wings 😋“

“We tried Nani’s Pizza for dinner tonight and were pleasantly surprised, the red sauce was delicious! We ordered a large sausage and pepperoni pizza that had lots of flavor and was reasonably priced. We also tried a large steak bomb sub holding the peppers due to a food allergy adoing extra mushrooms. There were no surprise peppers and no need to try to find the mushrooms! We are happy customers and Nani’s will be our new go to for a pizza or a sub in Clinton, MA! The items we tried were excellent as was the value. Our first and surely not our last visit! A very welcome addition to Clinton.“

“If you’re looking for a true neighborhood gem, Spruce Street Tavern in Clinton never disappoints. I’m there often enough to call myself a regular, and every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. The pizza is consistently awesome—crispy, flavorful, and way better than you’d expect from a tavern—and the drinks are always poured right. The service is exactly what you want in a local spot: friendly, quick, and genuinely welcoming. Whether it’s a busy night or a quieter visit, the atmosphere hits that perfect balance of lively and relaxed. Spruce Street Tavern has become one of my go-to places, and if you haven’t checked it out yet, you’re missing out. Highly recommend!“

“Great Place!!!“

“Hands down my first choice for any meal or snack, or just a coffee when I am in the area. Always delicious! Farm to tablet homemade from scratch non gmo and or organic food. My husband and I always choose a ground beef burger. Amazing! I have also had turkey Rueben and a fresh salad. Yummy! I always buy a coffee and chicken soup to go. Gluten free and vegetarian options. There is always complimentary water with mint, fruit etc, it alternates. The atmosphere has always been quiet comfotable peaceful and temperature controlled. Relatively small area. The one and only, Arwin, creates culinary wonders and beholds beautiful energy. I have known her for a long time. Check out her amazing bio. I am so thankful for this Cafe!
Note: only accepts electronic payments. And I always call and listen to Arwins weekly voicemessage to confirm the hours for that week.“

“Good food and fair prices . Used a Groupon so it was worth it definitely. About $52 however for two meals and one large beer and a soda so it may be on the expensive“

“My husband and I went here for the first time on Friday. We were famished and the smash burgers did not disappoint! Juicy and delish with the best crispy on the outside fries. We grabbed cookies and cream muffins to go and they were beyond amazing! The staff is super friendly and attentive. We even got to meet Franny! We will definitely be back and highly recommend you check this awesome diner out if you haven’t. You won’t be sorry and will want to go back for more!“

“Awesome food great staff!“

“Overall, it’s a pretty good spot. I had the Steak & Cheese sub, which was quite delicious and came in a great portion size.
​However, the kids' menu was a bit disappointing. My daughter ordered the Chicken Fingers with fries, but judging by the portion, it was more like a huge plate of fries with a side of chicken. The two chicken fingers were thin and dry, and the amount of fries was way too much for a child. Quite underwhelming, especially for $11.99.“

“Athens Pizza has always been a good option for salads, pasta, and subs. I don’t eat pizza too often but theirs is pretty good when I do. Prices have gone up a little since my last visit, but that seems to be the case everywhere these days“

“The bagels are made fresh daily. They sell day old bagels for a discounted price. The eggs are not microwaved, and the meat for the sandwiches are not microwaved either. Everything is made on a short order grill. I drive 30 mins out of my way to have someone ride do it right. I have not found a place within Worcester County that does it this good.

Parking: Big lot with drive through!

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps. You can ambulate on in here.“

“Their Pho is amazing with lots of meat, and a flavorful broth with those great rice noodles. Love the Thai Basil, bean sprouts, lime and peanut sauce it comes with. The Pineapple Fried Rice has lots of chicken and pinneaple...very tasty.
They are always very friendly and their prices are good. Would highly recommend them.“

“Quality food, home fries where amazing. Not a fan of the chairs with arms made small space difficult to maneuver. Prices where on the high end even for these crazy times, but with more strategic ordering could have improved, pancakes were large and filling, kids could have shared to reduce cost and the juices add up, but where refreshing.

Local charm will return, cozy but good use of space and light.“

“I wanted to take the time to leave a detailed review because this place really stood out to me, especially when it comes to the pizza.

The first thing I noticed was the sauce. It has this really good tangy, slightly sweet flavor that makes the pizza different from a lot of other places. It is not overly sweet and it is not too acidic either. It has a really nice balance to it, and it works perfectly with the cheese and crust. The sauce has enough flavor that you actually notice it instead of it just blending into the background.

The pizza itself was cooked just right. The crust had a nice texture, the cheese was melted perfectly, and everything came together exactly the way you want a good pizza to. Nothing tasted undercooked, soggy, or overdone. It had that perfect balance where the crust still had some bite to it while the inside stayed soft enough to enjoy. You could tell some care went into getting the cook right instead of just rushing it out.

The cheese-to-sauce ratio was also really good. Sometimes places either overload the cheese or barely put enough sauce on, but this was nicely balanced. Every bite had a little bit of everything, and the tangy-sweet sauce gave it a flavor that kept making me want another slice.

The chicken fingers were another big highlight. They were cooked well, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and not dried out. That sounds simple, but it is surprising how many places manage to overcook chicken fingers or make them greasy. These were really enjoyable and paired perfectly with the pizza.

Overall, I was really impressed with the quality of the food. The pizza had a distinct flavor because of that tangy, sweet sauce, it was cooked perfectly, and the chicken fingers were excellent as well. It is the kind of place where you can tell they have their own style instead of just making generic pizza.

I would absolutely order from here again. If you like pizza with a flavorful sauce that has a little sweetness and tang to it, and you also appreciate food being cooked properly instead of just thrown together, this place is definitely worth trying.

Very good pizza, excellent chicken fingers, and a flavor that actually stands out. I am glad I gave this place a try.“

“In my top 5 restaurants I’ve ever been to. Never disappoints!“
