“I enjoyed the food in China City, good prices and great food. Portions were good too. People there were very nice, so sorry to see them close. They were best in the area! Hope they can reopen soon, miss their food!“

“We were there yesterday, and was sadly surprised to see that there was not a single lager available. We were very disappointed. Not an IPA fan!!!!“

“Went there for late breakfast. Was a little busy but the wait time was not excessive. Friendly staff and the food was great. We were just visiting MA but recommended to my friends already.

Parking: We parked at the nearby lot, probably illegally, at the local library. A short walk.“

“The food is wonderful. The atmosphere of love, kindness, and caring for everyone is so welcoming especially in our country today.“

“Delicious food and drinks. great service and location.“

“Great beer and I love that it is dog friendly!“

“Tons of choices for both food and drink and pretty approachable prices compared to most places nowadays. The beer was crisp and fresh, with a variety of choices for both types and sizes so pretty much anyone can find something they like.

The location is nice, with a spacious layout that gives you room to spread out where you like.“

“Excellent food!!! Wonderful staff that treats you very well.“

“All my life I thought Nobody could compete with the golden arches. Well I have to say, five guys is my absolute favorite burger place. The double layer of burgers along with any topping you could want and lits of melted cheese. And let's not forget the generous amount of delicious fries! So incredibly tasty. The only thing I have yet to try is the milkshakes. But I hope to some day soon.

Parking: So far we have not had a problem with parking but I could see that it is possible. Due to the fact that it is in a small corner off the highway with other businesses as well.“

“Best double cheeseburger with bacon, hands down. Absolute monster, and cooked perfect every time. The lobster roll is gigantic. Perfect Mayo. Chopped celery. Toasted roll. Ton of lobster. What it should be. And the ice cream. It's all great, but their pistachio is the best you will find. I'm the warmer months, they have the cruise nights. Every Friday night, the coolest cars, music, raffles, and trivia. If you go once, you'll go again. Awesome place“

“Just found this farmstand by chance. My daughter played in a soccer tournament at Game On in Fitchburg. We went in to grab a sandwich between games. It was amazing. We spent so much time looking at all the unique stuff they are selling. We loved it so much that we went back after the second game. We tasted and bought their balsamic vinegars and olive oils . I bought a couple of plants. It is a must visit if you are in the area of Fitchburg.“

“We went for Easter with a 2yo and a 6yo and had a good time. The kids were happy and so the adults. As other people commented is not really an egg hunt, because the eggs and colorful ball are all around the garden. But I knew it before going and explained the kids in advance so they weren’t disappointed. You fill the basket with eggs and need to return to exchange for a goodie bag with some candy, Easter chocolates and coloring sheet, stickers, a ring, balloon and a few more things. Not much but really enough. Plus can have an ice cream sandwich! The place is really nice, and there were a few activities to do outdoors plus an indoor room with plenty of toys and bouncy castle. It was overall a fun and lovely experience.“

“Stopped here mid afternoon on NYE for a pick-me up during a mini-roadtrip. The staff were incredibly friendly and fun. Donuts were excellent, coffee was decent (but I tend to prefer dark roasts). Highly recommend, and will revisit next time I am driving through.“

“We have been here several times for takeout. We've tried almost all of the bahn mi sandwiches, chicken bao and this evening we ordered milk tea boba and black sugar boba smoothie. Everything has been excellent and we will definitely be back again soon!“

“They are always so friendly and never say no to my odd combination of menu items - everything is always fresh home made and ready minutes after ordering - always stop in when in area. Great value service and food must try“

“I visited Texas Road House, which I had not for a while because my experience the last time I went through four years ago was not great but going back today with my daughter and grandchild and Cese, our waitress was amazing very attentive very kind and respectful made it fun for my granddaughter great choice and hiring her she’s amazing.“

“China Wonder is my favorite spot in Fitchburg. Their service is always great and their prices are competitive. The chicken fingers and general tso chicken are my favorites“

“Everything about this place makes me smile. It's always clean inside, well staffed and maintained, very happy plants (that's important), racks of chips and well stocked fridges of a variety of drinks.There is a wide selection of specialty sandwiches, salads, a variety of fresh, ready-to-go hot meals (try the American Chop Suey), and snacks.Their potato salad is the *best* I've had from a sandwich shop in years.They have a rotating selection of specials and unique sandwich combos, and the prices for what you get are very fair.My only critiques of Bushel & Peck are, the spicy mustard they use is overwhelmingly horse-radishy, and the 'breaded chicken' used for a few of the hot sandwiches is just a frozen chicken patty.The meal was still good but it would be better with higher quality chicken. Their cold-cuts and pressed sandwiches are delicious.There are a few tables, so you can eat there if you'd like. I typically walk in & order for take-away, and they're very quick and friendly.Perfect place to stop in for a tasty, fresh and filling lunch.“

“Enjoyed the food and friendly staff“

“Service was amazing. My sirloin steak was perfectly cooked. Overall awesome experience.“

“The 3 for me deal is awesome.Started off with wings with hot sauce which were perfectly cooked and salsa and chips. We got 6oz sirloin steaks cooked to perfection, awesome loaded potatoes and broccoli which were plentiful and the Cesar salad and clam chowder were great. Had the cheese cake for dessert and it was a large delicious slice with strawberry preserve jam sauce. The place was busy but our waitress was very friendly, attentive and helpful.“
