Craft 260

Reviewed By Dainelle G

How does a beer joint not have flights? Waitress rattled off answers to questions so fast and garbled that we couldn't understand her. Food was good- burgers, veggie burgers, salads and pretzels. But nothing that we would go back for. We had to ask for water multiple times of multiple servers; once directly asking our server who came back with our check (that we had NOT asked for) and no water. Nope. Sorry guys, you missed the mark here.

Firehouse Deli

Reviewed By GloriaH119

We like going here. They make sandwiches, wraps, custom salad bar, salads, drinks and desserts. I had a roasted vegetable wrap and my husband had the Thanksgiving wrap with turkey and stuffing. The wraps were freshly prepared and tasted delicious. They have both indoor and seasonal outdoor seating. They also gave up friendly service.

Flipside Burgers & Bar

Reviewed By ParkerSturbridge

This is a nice little place for a burger and a beer, plus a whole lot more. In addition to the "build your own" burger option, diners have a large and eclectic choice of specialty burgers and sandwiches. There is something here for everyone. I got a burger topped with potato chips and onion dip....wonderful!!!! Nice chicken sandwiches and salads too. Nice bar area with some booths and high tables, or sit in the dining area in the back. Tough to find the parking lot but it's worth the search. Check it out!!!

Nice food, attentive servers. Try the cauliflower app..it's great! Rocket and Beets salad was a hit as was the lobster roll. Good selection of reasonably priced wines.

Westfair Fish & Chips

Reviewed By Donna W

OMG... bring CASH for this tasty, nothing fancy fish place. They serve the battered fish and chips but also a thin flour crust on the fish (which I prefer). The Rhode Island clam chowder is excellent. The fish is not greasy, always golden brown as are the whole bellied fried clams. Love their macaroni salad. BRING CASH...no credit cards.

I ordered the daily special - with kale, goat cheese, cranberries, almonds and some other ingredients. It was yummy. The place is tiny and a little chaotic but I came at the noon rush. Seating is limited but blessedly most of the orders were to go.

Went with my Parents this trip, my Dad hadn't been here since the 60's and my Mom had never been, we stopped of course, for the hot roast beef sandwich, as stated in my title best on the planet, house made roast beef as well as sausage and meatloaf, no frills great greasy spoon, hasn't changed a bit since the 60's according to my Dad, still family run which is a plus, we ordered 3 hot roast beef sandwiches - 1/4 pound, 1/2 pound available as well, sandwich is packed with meat on a huge hard roll, enough for two meals and reasonably priced, make this a stop, some seating inside but we got ours to go, complete with gravy on the side and pickles, Owner was behind the grill - great guy - great hospitality, treat you like family.

Gray Goose

Reviewed By GloriaH119

We had a very enjoyable lunch. They had both indoor and outdoor seating- on the covered patio. They offered a nice menu- appetizers, salads, sandwiches, grain bowls,entrees, drinks and desserts. I ordered the homemade Vegetable burger with side salad. The burger and side salad were very tasty and fresh- generous serving. My husband had the Caesar salad with grilled chicken - very fresh and generous serving too. In addition we had very good service.
