Restaurants near Barre Common District

After eating at the Publick House for many, many years we were surprised to hear a substitution on a meal can no longer be made.. For example: you cannot substitute Green Bean for Squash without being charged $2.00. You must now take the meal as listed on the menu, otherwise there is an Extra Charge. Very disappointed to hear this from a really special restaurant. This makes it sound like the meals are prepared ahead of time and just reheated when ordered. Hopefully they will change this policy. The service was outstanding, the meal would have better with Green Beans instead of the Squash!!!!!

Willy's is our favorite local restaurant. We love everything about it; the food, atmosphere, drinks and very friendly staff especially JD and Todd. Best steak tips I've ever had and my husband's favorite filet mignon are our go to meals. They also serve fabulous sushi and seafood so there is something for everyone. It might not be a place you would go to on a regular basis, but it's certainly a place to go for a special occasion.

The service and food were both great! My husband and I had a date night and the atmosphere was fun and energetic, especially by the bar, but low key enough to be relaxing and romantic.

Truly a five star dining experience… Chashu it’s on all fronts with an awesome vibe, plentiful and attentive staff, and killer food. I’ve been a dozen times and had a great experience, but this most recent time we had a tokurri of their “Demon Slayer” sake, and they brought over the assortment of traditional ochoko cups to pick from. We ordered one of my favorites, the chicken karaage for the table. It’s a small plate so if you’ve got hungry folks, I recommend getting two (good for 2 people to share). For dinner, I got the maze brothless Ramen, it was very tasty possibly a bit too garlic, but overall very good. My GF always gets the moyashi, I’d highly recommend this as I think it’s probably the best Ramen on the menu in a traditional sense. We skipped dessert this time, but we did get drinks … I got the paper crane and it was fantastic… great unique whiskey cocktail, not too sweet and very tasty and not overwhelmingly alcohol(y) for the uninitiated. I will make a note and say that I have had their dessert before, and it is high-quality in presentation and flavor and typically big enough to share for two. Overall, it’s a great night out with friends with tables that could be pushed together to seat 12, of have a cozy time with 2. Highly recommended!

Best clam chowder in central mass… awesome food and service
