Love the beer selection and the food here. Sometimes they go too overboard on the offal etc, but that's just my personal preference, not a knock on this place!! Had the mac & cheese with bacon tonight and it's so rich and so good that if I died if a heart attack tonight's I'd die happy. If you haven't been, get there!!

Stopped by for lunch, had a great jerk pork sandwich and the Mac & Cheese was to die for.. To wash all that goodness down I had a Hill Farmstead IPA.. Boom!!
Angeline Sweet
Nice restaurant with good food. Sometimes the service isn’t great. Sitting next to the drafty door isn’t fun. Food is worth it tho.
Kristen Phelps
Really awesome local spot in Worcester. GREAT food and even better beer; some very rare offerings on tap (if you like Hill Farmstead, this is your place). Bartenders are A+, cocktails here are fantastic if you're not a beer drinker. Stop in for brunch!

Stopped in here for Sunday brunch before heading back home. We were greeted by friendly staff and seated quickly. The restaurant has a friendly and inviting vibe. It was loud at times because of the crowd but was not a huge issue. I would say avoid stopping in if you have the kids with you. They use local ingredients and menu changes often. Those looking to drink have plenty of options; specialty mixed drinks, personalized bloody marys, and large craft beer tap-list. I went with a create your-own 4 beer flight with beers from Trillium, Hudson Valley, and Proclamation Ale. A must stop for beer lovers. Then for food I decided on Pumpkin French Toast which was one of the best versions I have had before. Prices were reasonable but getting drinks can jack up the prices as you would expect. Would highly recommend this place for drinks and farm to table brunch if you are in the area.

Food is very good, beer selection is top notch. Sure to please the Sunday brunch crowd

The wait-person was very pleasant. The ambiance was inviting. The food (a farm to table salad and flat bread pizza) was eclectic & flavorful. The pizza with lamb, spices and eggplant was a bit heavy and oily. Mary Ann liked her salad and took my pizza home for later. The drinks were refreshing. I will give it another try. I would not call it fine dinner dining yet. If you and co-workers stop by after a full day in the salt mines, you will enjoy yourselves.

Staff was excellent... Drinks were amazing... Food was great.... Not disappointed one bit.

Normally have a solid experience here; last time was very poor though. Dinner for five took 90 minutes from order to serving. The waitress checked in on our table once during this period and never mentioned that the food was delayed.I ordered the three-course meal offering. They ran out of two of the courses after I ordered, then never served the "bread slate" that was supposed to come with the meal. Still charged full price for the meal, no apologies despite the sub-par substitutions. The main course was underwhelming.
Jacquelyn Whiting
Absolutely delicious! Very friendly service. The menu changes every week and everything is farm fresh!
Canary Ly
Wonderful ambiance, food was good but the prices were extremely high for the amount/quality/attention we received. It seemed like we were paying more for the setting than anything. Staff could be less hipster and more focused on being good servers

Best place around if you're in New England. All of the food consistently knocks expectations out of the park.Their craft beer list is the best you'll find anywhere. They also have a solid selection of farm house bottles as well.Great place and is a must stop if you're a beer lover or a foodie. It simply does not disappoint.

Absolutely phenomenal. I recently went to Armsby Abbey for brunch and fortunately it wasn't too busy. My friend and I ordered the peanut butter pancakes and mac and cheese were not disappointed. The service was great and the food food was incredible. I will definitely be going back to Armsby Abbey for brunch soon!!
Matt Daneau
It feels high-end, ambiance is superb!Good for sit-down eating, not bar-hopping.Good for small family and friend gatherings.Prices can be fair at worst and at best is lower than you might expect.The staff are friendly and inviting.Food does not come that quickly but service is not too slow. Absolutely worthwhile to reserve. The food tastes incredible, especially for craft beer, wine, cheese, and farm-to-table enthusiasts. Some alcohol was shipped from Europe, I believe.And there is so many different cheeses! I recommend the Mac n Cheese, it is divine!I will be returning!
Dana Johnson
Okay, so I thought I had reviewed before. Food is awesome, staff is knowledgeable about pairing food and beer. Loved that the manager? Sarah came over and helped to make sure that my food allergy is attended to in a "we got this and appreciate you kind of way". Cocktails....delicious. Master mixers....what a New England gem.
Mark Spaeth
Great tap list, but 30 minutes into our 45 minute wait for a table, we got a text update that it was going to be another hour, so we asked to be taken off the list and left. About an hour later we got a call asking where we were.Food walking by looked really good, but nothing is worth a 90 minute wait.
John LeMaire
You just can't beat the food, beverages and atmosphere here! Plenty of regular staples on the menu but my favorite is the rotating brunch menu every weekend! The toasts and the sandwiches are always a must try. Draft list is always stellar and is probably the best in the greater Boston region!
Juan Ramirez
Food and atmosphere was amazing. Price was very competitive with other locations. Staff was attentive but also gave our group the room so it didn't feel like they were bothering us. I will definitely return.
Ha Truong
Friendly staff and good drink selection. Food menu is very limited but perfect for those looking for some light snacks while imbibing.
Jason Latham
An excellent experience. Knowledgeable, courteous staff without being pretentious at all. An outstanding selection of local beers on tap, and a farm to fork menu that is comfortable and tempting, but strays from the expected pub fare in the best way possible.We took our business team for dinner after a meeting, and absolutely WILL be back!
ryan talavera
Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Amazing beer on tap and available in bottles. The outstanding charcuterie was icing on the cake.
Kevin Morris
A must stop for me. The food is amazing and anywhere that regularly has Hill Farmstead will have me stopping for a beer and bite
Rich Hanson
Great, laid back atmosphere. I highly recommend this place!
James Ross
Awesome food!!! Amazing selection of locally grown produce, beers & cheeses... all prepared masterfully. I’ve been to a ton of restaurants in the Boston area and this blows it away. Already looking forward to going back!!!
Isis Latham
We loved it! Great food! Great ambiance! Great bar! We'll be back for sure.
Mary Shannon
What a fantastic spot! Everything about it was beyond expectations. The beer list is one of the best I've ever seen, their cheese offerings are diverse and delightful, and the food is flawless. Genuinely one of the best meals I've had all year. Well worth a drive to Worcester.
Matt Werner
Eating here has been on the list for a while, it was well worth the wait! The cheeses and meats were fresh and very flavorful. The pizza crust was cooked perfectly and the beer menu is one of the best ones there. If you like great craft beer and have an appreciation for local fresh food, give this place a try! Can't wait to go back
David Earle
Best beer menu I've ever seen.
Dave F
Great beer, and food, not cheap tho.
Christian Klein
Excellent beer selection. Extremely good burger. However, for $18, I would expect the bun and fries to be better than McDonald's. If the side was at the same level as the main, it would have been so much better.
PETER THEODORE
Great atmosphere Burger was excellent great beer flowing
Alex B
Been coming here for their yearly bourbon brunch event every year for the past 5 years. Good beer and spirits selection.
Charles Kiezulas
We were sceptical of the brunch menu at first. The breakfast egg sandwich and hash beef were delicious!! The brick walls and Carly Simon music in the background created a warm and enjoyable atmosphere.
Beth Smith
Three words:HipsterExpensiveDelish!!We went here for our first time on a double date. Our waiter was knowledgeable on both the food and drinks. He steered us in the right direction on every decision and we weren't disappointed. We enjoyed the food and beer immensely!
Keith Hoggard
Great environment. Food was good, but somewhat limited selection. Was definitely more inclined to the Bar aspect than restaurant side of things. Food is locally sourced. Enjoy.
christopher bowling
Great beer and excellent food. The roast beef sandwich was delicious
Tejas
Excellent food, interesting and inventive cocktails, friendly service. Parking is a pain and the restaurant is small and gets loud and crowded quickly. But it is one of my favorite restaurants!
Jonathan A.
Of course, a tremendous beer selection. Really enjoyed my flight of IPAs. Charcuterie was excellent
Dylan Clifford
Probably the nicest spot in Worcester. Great food and drink. Very rare beer offerings in a casual atmosphere. Inspired cocktails and lunch fare. Thank you Matt for the excellent service.
Wendy Xie
This is our favorite spot in Worcester for special dates! Always an excellent selection of drinks, which are really the selling point. Most of the food is super delicious, I’ve had one soup here that was a little too sweet for my taste, but everything else I’ve ever had here has been amazing. I especially loved the Beast of Burden I had here recently, a hot mixed drink with lemon and rum. My partner is a fan of the flatbreads here, and we love it when they do desserts! Will continue to visit Armsby Abbey and would recommend it to anyone!
Tiffany Langdon
This place has the most amazing brunch! The staff is super friendly and the food is amazing
Rudolf Arn
Very good selection of draft beers. Great variety of food dishes. It's a noisy place. Friendly staff.
Gerry Hoang
Wow we loved this place so much. We came here for dinner and beers by the recommendations of family and it didn't not disappoint. We sat at the bar and got two flights, and then I got the wings and he got a flatbread. The wings were easily the best wings I've ever had and the beer selection was filled with rare finds. They had three different Hillfarmstead beers while we were there, and other excellent choices. We can't wait to come back here
Jomarie Farrell
We had a large group and service was spot on for brunch. I'm from NW where coffee is King and the coffee was excellent. Highly recommend the bangers and mash!
John Hsieh
Interesting how Armsby is one of the most rated restaurants in Worcester. Armsby is a craft food and craft beer kind of place and we were quite impressed by the breadth and depth of the food and beers offered. During our lunch visit, we got a chance to taste the chicken liver mousse, the flatbread, and the fried chicken sandwich. All the food were made very well and the ingredients were very fresh. Looking at their brunch menu online, we're almost certain that we would have enjoyed their brunch if we were in Worcester during the weekend. The decor is modern rustic and there is a large bar area. The service staff was quite friendly and we had no trouble getting a seat during weekday lunch hour.
D. Hunt
The beer list is amazing, but the food and service are equally outstanding. The smoked & roasted roast beef sandwich with roasted mushrooms, caramelized onions, gruyere, horseradish & herb cream cheese, maple-marrow a jus on a crusty baguette was incredible. Even the fries were fantastic: golden and crisp outside, tender inside with great potato flavor. Perhaps the only downside to me was the lack of dining table seating; the decor is very nice overall, but the vast majority of the seating (other than window seating) is at bar height tables with high stools. No problem for drinks with friends but not as comfortable for lunch or dinner. Highly recommend overall!
Lee Kelley
The atmosphere is very nice. Came here on a Sunday and they were offering a nice brunch menu with plenty of great drink options. I had a Hillstead Farm beer which was awesome. Try the mac and cheese, you won't regret it.
Scott Churchill
Some places mail in the cheese and charcuterie.. not this place. Fantastic meal.
Ed Vigliatura
We tried the family dinner for 4 from Armsby Abbey in Worcester tonight. $50.00 for 4 pieces of chicken (leg, wing, thigh and breast), a small portion of Mac & cheese, small container of slaw and a few pickles. Barely a dinner for two. We called to make sure we got the right portions and they were rude, laughed and said they were cutting back due to hard times. Just wanted to warn everyone so you don’t get surprised like we did. Horrible experience, even after giving a 50% gratuity to help support small business in these times.
