Alison ParkJune 15, 2013Lots of amazing craft beers! Also, I usually hate Mac N Cheese but it's pretty much life changing if you get it from here (also an entree that's easy on the wallet so why the hell not?)
Jennifer LeMayJuly 8, 2012Everything is amazing. All food is made from scratch, beer selection is the best in the area and if you know beer prices are worth it and cocktails and desserts are amazing. This place is unique. GO!
Brett GarwoodJanuary 13, 2016Great craft beer selection, with sought after Hill Farmstead on tap. It's not on the menu, but get a flight. The blue cheese is amazing. Thai wings FTW and habanero pork tacos were on fire. Go here.
Kevin CanaliJanuary 7, 2015This has the best craft beer selection and the food here is amazing it is it is from farm to table fresh and very original recipes this is the best bar in Worcester bar none
GourmetLiveJune 8, 2012Food blogger Cara of Cara's Cravings recommends Armsby Abbey. "Diners can count on quiches prepared with farm-fresh eggs, stuffed French toast made with bread baked on-site, and breakfast pizzas."
David CarrJanuary 20, 2017Great spot for hard to find / local / small batch beer. Bartender was extremely knowledgeable - seemed unapproachable at first, but warmed up to us. Highly recommended.
Gwenevere C 👸🐾🎃👻🎅🎄☃️September 27, 2016We had the cheese board, it was awesome...followed by the grilled cheese sandwich, which was to die for. I definitely will go back again, when I'm in town.
They now have two to five permanent taps of beer from Hill Farmstead in VT!
Amanda RekhaMay 27, 2013The mac n cheese is always yummy because they use different beers all the time in it! Get a cheese slate for an app (9$ for 1 cheese, 15$ for 2, 20$ for 3). It comes with bread, honey, and jam!
BJ BakerOctober 7, 2016World class beer selection top heavy on American craft beers and highly sought Belgian Ales. Amazing farm to table food menu. Brunch!
Great list of beers on tap. Also if you need to clear your sinuses get the pulled pork sandwich with the fiery jerk sauce, it is insanely hot.
SandyJuly 18, 2015This was my favorite spot while visiting Worcester. Great beers. Brunch was crowded, but worth it. Bartenders are very friendly.
Eric AndersenNovember 28, 2014The Mediterranean Plate is a great starter — the homemade hummus is particularly delicious!
- Sheldon SchatzmanMarch 17, 2018Great beer selection, and the poutine and the sausage flat bread was really good! We will be back again.
Thierry SornasseAugust 28, 2018Great beers, great food, and great service. The burger is out of this world (read the composition on the menu)- Sharon McFartlanJuly 6, 2012GREAT beer list and cheese selection. Lots of unique options and local ingredients. To-die-for mac and cheese.
Jake SmithDecember 18, 2011Go for brunch; if you don't want a Bloody Mary, try the MakGriddle cocktail: a delicious blend of bacon-flavored bourbon, maple syrup, egg, and milk.
The Abbey would still be a destination if it were only one of a top notch beer bar, cocktail bar, or farm to table restaurant. However, it happens to be all three.- Stiffany SmithAugust 3, 2013Of course, the beer selection is amazing, but if you're in the mood for something a bit different, you must try the beehive!
Jim McKeonJanuary 27, 2014Mac & Cheese, Cheese Plates, Hand crafted cocktails. Brianna makes incredible Manhattans, Vieux Carre for after dinner.
John LopezJanuary 19, 2015Awesome beers on tap and fantastic comfort food in a cozy setting. A must!
Jeanne MooreNovember 22, 2021Spiced Squash Flatbread was amazing!! Substituted mushrooms for pickled onions. So delicious.- Try the Rillons - Pork belly cooked in duck fat on celery and onion purée. Caramelized onion, radishes, and baby arugula. Food coma!
Christopher FasonFebruary 28, 2013When they warn you about the jerk chicken heat level, believe it. Good stuff but it will melt your tongue if you are not prepared.
Shane MartinSeptember 25, 2016The Flatbread is huge. Amazing beer selection too including Hill Farmstead
- Come here for the Cantillon, stay for the extensive, impressive craft beer list
Great beer, great service, great food. The pulled pork Sandwhich is super hot. The roast beef grinder and Mac n cheese is amazing
Try a flight and talk to the bartender about the choices and soon you will be craft beer aficionado- Alison ParkAugust 1, 2012The Mac n Cheese is to die for! The cheese plates are reasonable as well. Try the unique beers!!!
Everything on the menu is unreal. Brunch is especially excellent. Great beer and cocktail menu as well.
- Jeff MoskowitzDecember 14, 2014Awesome beers selection like Stone smoked porter to compliment my mediterranean slate
Incredible craft beer selection. Always packed. Metal show pre-game spot. \m/
John DuarteAugust 27, 2017If beer is your thing. Come here. Bartenders are glorified beer pourers on acid.
- Sonja DewingJuly 8, 2021Where is the 855 Area Code? 855 area code is in the United States of America. It is a toll-free number accessible within America. Read more
John GauthierApril 29, 2013Come for the beer list. Stay for the ham sandwich - and almost everything else on the menu.
