Fantastic food, excellent service, portion sizes appropriate to cost. Can't comment on alcohol, but other folks seemed very pleased.

Edit: came back. Ate, was thrilled, coming back. 👍😎

Visiting the area on a work trip, we had a fantastic dining experience with friendly service and Kendall our waitress answered all of our questions with exceptional service. I will definitely recommend to everyone visiting here with us.

I am not local, but have now done two vacations to Massachusetts. I have struggled with finding flavor with most places that I have tried, so far. But....not the Oak Barrel Tavern. We ordered burgers and they were easily, the best food that we have had in this state so far. If Silver Scream Con 5 is in Worcester next year, I will definitely go back for more! Not only did it all taste great, the service was fast.
