12 Best American Restaurants in Watertown

“excellent food and great service. had breakfast with my wife there today and we highly recommend.“

“I know it seems odd to give 5 stars to a hospital cafeteria, but Harvest Market is not at all your typical hospital food. Everything is made to order and really delicious. The menu rotates so there's always something new to try. I highly recommend stopping in.“

“Easter brunch was not good. Food cold not organized“

“Just love this spot. The best coffee in town hands down (honestly it’s some of the best coffee I’ve ever had in general)- they roast the espresso beans themselves! and something about the chai is just absolutely perfect! Every time I get a chai somewhere else, I’m wishing it was the chai from connection. Such a hidden gem- worth driving the extra couple minutes past downtown. An old school authentic coffee house feel. And the food is amazing as well. 100/10 every time!“

“New to the area and picked D & J’s to have drinks at. Was a great experience. The bartender Jenny made sure we had a great experience. She is a delight to be around and a excellent bartender!“

“Fast service, decent prices, friendly waitresses. felt a bit rushed on my decision and felt a bit unwelcomed/a negative kind of energy& vibe by the older lady who served me and who took my order. she made sure my order was right & I had plenty of coffee though which I much appreciate!!“

“My first visit to this wonderful family owned restaurant. The service was friendly. With their large menu selection. I had breakfast, Florentine eggs Benedict and my daughter had burger and fries. Their menu is very diversified to satisfy all tastes and appetites. Prices are more than reasonable especially with the large servings. \nWhen I’m in town again this will be my go to place for a good hearty meal.“

“I can't stay away from this spot! The staff are absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. The food? Consistently delicious, fresh, and made with care. Whether you're craving breakfast or lunch, there's something on the menu that will hit the spot.

I also love their commitment to supporting local businesses—they proudly serve Berres Brothers coffee, rotating through seasonal flavors to keep things exciting. It’s the perfect touch to round out an already amazing experience!

If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by—you won’t regret it!“

“Mullen’s Dairy Bar, come one, come all,
come summer, come winter, come springtime or fall.
A sweet little stop where the good days remain,
where a scoop and a smile make you feel young again.

Howdy, hooty-hoot-who, what’ll it be?
A cone for you and a cone for me.
One scoop, two scoops, stack three toward the sky,
then lick it up quick before drippity-drop passes by.

Vanilla? Chocolate? Something strange in between?
A sundae piled high in a dairy-filled dream?
Shake it or malt it, whirl, twirl, and spin,
whatever you order, there’s happiness within.

Scoopity-scoop, loopity-loop,
ice cream piled in a delicious little troop.
Cold on the tongue while the summer sun glows,
drip on your fingers, then drip on your clothes.

But Mullen’s is more than a cone and a treat,
there’s hot off the griddle when you’re hungry to eat.
A burger can sizzle, some fries can arrive,
then dessert comes marching to keep joy alive.

There’s something about an old dairy-bar door,
the kind of small place that keeps calling for more.
No glitter required, no fanciful flair,
just good grub, cold cream, and good people there.

So pull up a stool, let your hungry heart choose,
there’s really no proper way here to lose.
Come for a burger, stay for the cream,
leave licking your lips from a cold dairy dream.

Mullen’s, dear Mullen’s, keep churning away,
keeping Watertown sweeter one scoop at a day.

Peace. Piece. Peas.
And ice cream, please. 🍦

Mr. E & Justin Thyme
Over and out.“

“Best bar, hands down, in Watertown. Great staff, excellent food. Try the chili; it’s AWESOME!“

“The food was amazing. We are so happy that they reopened. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything was simply wonderful that we had. I had the beef tenderloin and my husband had the prime rib and they were cooked too perfection. The staff was wonderful And we will be back.“

“I may have reviewed this location in the past with not the best rating but I just want to commend them for their efforts in improvement. Since the remodel, I have had nothing but positive experiences. My orders are always correct. Food is and tasty and fresh and the employees are friendly and give great service. Great job Watertown team. Keep up the good work, your efforts don’t go unnoticed!“
