Worcester MA Restaurants

[katbalou]

tried 86 Winter st. the other night, food was very good, prices reasonable and the atmosphere was ok, furniture just a little crowded. for never having worked in restaurants before the chef did ok, we'll see how long they last.

BUMP.

Mr. Duck and I will be in Framingham in a couple of weeks to attend a Bar Mitzvah, and will be looking for a place to go for a light dinner. (The chances of us being hungry by dinnertime are slim but I wanted to keep my options open.)

I haven’t been back to Worcester for about 15 years (former Clarkie), so time and soberness permitting, I’d like to check out the art museum, show him the campus, and have dinner.

The suggestions upthread look promising, but I just wanted to see if there is anything new and exciting. I’m pleasantly surprised that The Sole Proprietor is still around. It was my favorite place — I remember all-you-can-eat steamers on Monday nights. We like all types of food, and are looking for someplace casual and your average entree being no more than $25. I’d appreciate all your suggestions. Thanks!

Are there any good bakeries or markets near the Mass Pike that would be good for a pit stop and a quick snack? What about coffee in Worcester?

Thanks!

Mrs. Mack's Bakery is right off of the Pike at the Millbury exit. It's a nice bakery that also serves breakfast and lunch. If you take the Millbury exit, veer to the left, go to the lights, take a left and it'll be on the right in a plaza with a United Bank. I'm a Dunkin' Donuts coffee fan, so that's where I go for coffee!
