14 Best Cocktail Bars in Worcester

Steel & Wire Cocktail Bar • $$
124 Millbury St, Worcester

“A worthy successor to Still and Stir, this is a cozy, intimate, unpretentious cocktail bar packed with nooks and crannies for grabbing a drink and catching up with friends. Their tight cocktail menu changes every few months, and nothing is too sweet or lazy. Limited food menu, but in short walking distance to some fine Worcester dining options.“

“6 years later and everything is still just as great as I remembered. The food and drinks did not disappoint. The espresso martini is always my go-to, and this time I tried a Reese’s martini - such a pleasant surprise and honestly delicious.

I also have to give kudos to the women’s bathroom. It’s always been one of those small details I’ve appreciated, and it’s still very accommodating. It looks like it’s been updated too—the new wallpaper/design is a really nice touch.

Overall, really glad I came back. Definitely a place that’s stayed consistent in quality over the years.“

The servers were very kind and speedy despite the chaos of an event day. Great beer selection obviously and the food was solid too, really enjoyed the pulled pork soup and hummus. We’ll be back the next time we’re in the area, cheers guys!“

“My husband and I frequent new restaurants regularly as we travel for his profession. I have to say not only was my salmon exquisite the real reason, our experience was on the top of our list Is because of our server. She made us feel so comfortable and at home. We felt like we’ve known her forever, which is a great feeling as we are always in new areas. Not only was her knowledge on every item I asked about on the menu top-tier but her customer service and friendliness was outstanding. I have family who also travel here quite often And I will be recommending this restaurant and having them request her Because she is what made the experience so memorable.

We ate at the restaurant for the first time tonight, May 8, 2026“

“It's National Oyster Day & I'm hooked on The Mercantile's offer of $1 oysters with strawberry mignonette from 4-6, Monday to Thursday, is unbeatable. I also devoured their goat cheese bites, crispy broccoli, & boom boom shrimp, all incredible appetizers. My friends' mac & cheese with buffalo shrimp & lobster fettuccine were insane. To top it off Claire, our waitress, was absolute perfection. Back to the mac & cheese - top tier!“
