Popcorn salty and burnt and ritz crackers with cheese mixed with egg and mayonnaise? Decor is same as Picadily's. you would think they would put down new carpet but they kept the same grungy dirty one. Basically, same menu with different name on front that advertises July 2013. It's July 25, 2013 and wondering if its managed by the same Pic people going with the status quo of running it the same way. Why is Pic gone? Food, decor and poor service? Are they destined the same fate as the Pic? Restaurant Impossible needed big time! Corn bread came out frozen, steak bland, not seasoned and marinated in water I'm sure. The flys add a special touch, no wonder the waitress kept asking if I was done every 3 minutes. I pulled off the highway to get a meal with my family only because it was halfway between Six Flagg and home. Next time I'll stop somewhere elsewhere. read more

Very disappointed about our experience. Our server was nice at the beginning, but when we asked for the check we waited a very long time for her to return to our table to process our credit card, so I flagged down someone else. A couple of minutes later put waitress reappeared, slammed our receipt down on the table, and marched off. I have never been treated that way before. With all the other options around town, I will not be going back. read more

Awful! Ordered the Sunday BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger well done. Th burger came out without BBQ sauce, tomatoes, onions or tomatoes and completely pink. He bottom of the bun was completely saturated in blood. The waitress apologized but didn't seem sincere, never heard from the manager in regards to it. Sent the burger back and left without eating! Menu was unappetizing, food bland and I would not recommend wasting your money! read more

Popcorn and crackers with some type of cheese spread served upon being seated. Kid #1 ordered mac n cheese & fries - appeared to be Kraft Mac N Cheese doctored up a bit. Kid #2 ordered penne with marina sauce. Husband ordered the Chicken Parm. I ordered the Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich. The husband liked the restaurant. I thought it was nothing special. I couldn't find any ranch on my sandwich and asked for some. The ranch had a peculiar taste to it. It had something sweet in it. I want to say cinnamon flavor, but that's probably not right. It was a bit weird. The bacon was gross. I like crispy bacon not floppy. Ugh. Fries were boring & tasteless. The kids were excited their meals included with a Hoodsie Cup for dessert. The menu says it changes monthly. I might return. The service was pretty good although we had to ask for refills. read more

We were seated promptly. Was happy to see the cheese spread it was kind of funny tasting but was ravenous so ate it. Hubby and I were both in the mood for a burger. So we ordered from the special menu the cheddar burger with no chedder. We were served fairly quickly considering the size of the packed parking lot. We both dug in with anticipation. The bun was way too big and slightly stale, and my burger looked juicy but was totally tasteless! Decided to try my fries and they were flavorless as well, hubby's burger was the same. Will we go again? Probably not even though its only a 10 minute drive from our house...... read more

We stopped for lunch on the way back from Mohegan. We both had the same thing and both loved it. Turkey dinner with 2 sides. What a lot of food and most importantly the turkey was incredibly moist. Sides needed a little butter, salt and pepper. I will stop there again if I'm in the area read more

2.5 It was busy for a Sunday night. I could see that this would be a place that locals would like to have a beer and burger. Our server was pleasant and accommodating, which one appreciates when dining with small children. My husband had the burger which was okay, my toddler's chicken tenders were good, the chicken pot pie was "meh" as was the salad that came with it. The Caesar was soaked in dressing so I exchanged for the garden, which was mostly iceberg and a few veggies thrown in...The booths are a little small, but the overall ambience was cozy on a rainy night. read more

We went on Thursday for dinner because I received a special coupon via e-mail (I signed up for the loyal customers club online). We both had fish & chips ($6.99 all day Thursday only with this e-mail printout. There also were other entrees and drinks on special). We both enjoyed our meals (now served on rectangular plates---the fish and chips were overflowing!) as we usually do, although the service was a tad slow this early evening. Can't wait for future e-mail specials. We'll definitely be going back for their "Dinner for Two for just $19.99" on Mondays---one appetizer to share, two entrees, and one dessert to share---a great deal!. read more

Despite the reviews, decided to try it ourselves as it is close to home. The menu covered all the basics. I had the turkey dinner, my 3 guests had baked stuffed shrimp, sirloin tips and lobster pie. The butternut squash was fantastic. We were all completely satisfied. Was the popcorn a little greasy? Sure, its popcorn. Our waitress was "Frasier" but her name is really Carol. She was very attentive and professional. I didn't often frequent the Piccadily Pub, so I don't have a lot to compare it to. Prices were reasonable, beer choices were good. Sometimes despite the reviews you read, you really need to try a place yourself. We will definitely be back. read more

We visited the pub on a Friday night and we happened upon it by chance. My wife and I were in town for a wedding and we were looking for a place to eat and grab a beer. We were driving around and we saw this place, so we decided to stop in. The service was good, the food was really good, and it was a nice place. We were pleasantly surprised and if we happen to end up back in Auburn we will be visiting the Bentley Pub again! read more

This was awful! I was hoping it would be like the old Picadilly where at least you knew the food would be decent. Especially certain things like their soups and salads. We got takeout last night and it was awful. The French Onion Soup was salt, over seasoned and the bread inside the soup was BURNT! Then I thought Caesar salad would be better, but it was drenched in dressing. We also got the chicken and broccoli Alfredo... It was so bland and the chicken was just a boiled piece plopped on top. I figured we got all things that were not that hard to mess up, but I guess I was wrong. Wish the old Picadillys were still around :( read more

Got the Lobster baked pie and it was like eating soup! Salty beyond belief! As for the sweet Potato fries, I'd rather hit my head on the table then eat them again. The gentleman waitor seemed uninterested in his job. I was mislead coming here. Don't think I'd spend my hard earned cash at this establishment again. read more

Traveling out of the south I wanted a nice bar with good food/menu with local options, nice bartop/barseat and That played sports on tv. Go there and try it. I came back every night and tried something different. Good local craft draft beers. Usually carrying a handful of local beers not 100 local beers. Check it out. Candy and Christine were my bartender they were great. read more

Bentley Pub - Gave it 5 strs - Pubs Near Me - Auburn, Massachusetts

See all

Tried the new Bentley Pub on 8/8/12, it was not good. I had the Fishermans Platter, lots of food, but no flavor, it tasted like it was warmed up in the microwave. Had an upset system after eating there, will skip the details! I threw the leftovers away. My wife had a dinner was just OK, that's the one star on the rating. WiLL NOT GO BACK! John from Auburn read more

last night was our second time here with a party of 4 , and it was as good as the first. my swordfish special was perfectly done with just a nice hint of lemon pepper, and my friend's Cajun swordfish was also delicious. Mac and cheese was excellent and the drinks were cold. our server was pleasant and very professional. we'll be back again. read more

Love Bentley's turkey dinner meal and the other home-cooked meals like meatloaf when I need comfort food. They have Keno and lottery in the bar along with TVs. Weekly specials and drinks are always interesting and delicious. read more

Friendly little pub. I had the clam chowda in a bread bowl and it was so good I had a second one. Traditional New England with lots of clams and potato. Waitress was friendly and attentive. read more

I've been to Bentley's several times when I'm in the area & not in the mood for one of the chain restaurants. It's not terrible but it's not great either. I honestly think the mashed potato is the best thing on the menu. The "chef" at least understands how to cook a medium rare steak but apparently has never learned that a simple thing like salt & pepper seasoning goes a long way so I spend half my meal time shaking it on every bite myself because it's so bland. I tried the Shepard Pie once...never again. The gravy that was on top (really?) tasted like the gravy from a Salisbury steak TV dinner (Yuk!). The decor reminds me of a 1970's country cottage & it's an effort not to go in my pj's. Is good mashed potatoes & mediocre steak enough to go back for? Unfortunately, since I haven't come across any dining options that are better than chili's in the area, yes I'll be back. read more

We stopped here on our way home from a road trip. There was an excellent selection of kids meals and are food was very good. We'd stop here again if we're heading in this direction. read more

worst ever!!!! food was ice cold! soup had bay leaves & alot of them! table was filthy, sticky, fuzzy & growing stuff!! waitress was incapable of handling 3 tables of 2! plates are plastic & cheap!!! grossgrossgross!!! will not be back! read more

I don't get all these one star reviews. Went to this place for lunch today and it was fantastic. It's pub food hence the name PUB. We had a lobster roll that was chucked with lobster. The sides were great as well. My father had the squash and he loved it I had the Broccoli which was just steamed but that is what I wanted. The fries were fresh and hot. Hubs had the fish and chips and he said the fish was really fresh and the batter was not greasy at all. And it was a very generous portion of haddock. Good New England Pub food in a casual setting. We will be going back and soon. read more

The food is good, fresh and affordable. They have the best specials daily and amazing specials on sundays.

The food here is nothing special but it's solid. The meatloaf, steak tips and pulled pork tacos are the 3 staple meals I get here. The place could use a little updating. On Wednesdays the have a great special, .50 cent shrimp cocktail which are decent in size. read more

I can't believe that this place only has 2.5 stars. I had an excellent experience here. I came flying in at 9:40pm (they close at 10:00). I sat at the bar; I was the only person in the place (it was a Monday night). They were very nice, took great care of me, kept my Sam Adams full, and I had the best fish and chips EVER in this place. I will absolutely hit this place up again when in the area. read more

Well for starters we were told 20-30 minute wait on a Friday night at 7pm. Wish we saw the sign that said kitchen closed at 9:30. On a Friday!! Well our 30 minute wait was more like 45 minutes. The waitress was appalled that one of our six needed a separate receipt. And she verbally made that clear. I ordered the lobster "flavored" bisque that was room temperature. Sent it back. Two of them ordered a meal that had cool green beans for a side. Not cold just cool. Will not be going back. read more

Food is food. Ordered the pork loin special - was surprised by the overlooked fried pork cutlets that were smothered in some raspberry goo. Salad was good. Partner had the surf and turf - he says it was good. So two stars..... Bar prices seem high as well. read more

Old school fare ! Fantastic service! Delish food - price is reasonable very reasonable! Fresh and tasty !

I was driving to New Jersey for business and got hungry so I pulled off and found this place close to the highway. I was craving buffalo chicken and there was nothing on the menu that really hit exactly what I wanted. I asked if they could do a custom sandwich and the obliged. This place exceeded my very low expectations and while it's not something I would go out of my way to get to it is definitely someplace I would stop at again if I happen to be passing around lunchtime. read more

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Had the fish and chips. Was ok, but not amazing. Could tell that it seems most of the food appears to not be as local or fresh as it could be. Friendly staff, might just have been what I ordered. Would come back again if around. read more

Very impressed with this place. I remember coming here a bunch of times when I was a kid and it was called Picadilly. For some reason I never really loved it then, but I decided to try it out under the new name and loved it! Food was excellent and the beer was cheap! Service was great. I'll be back! read more

Fast and friendly...needed a quick place for a pit stop on a long drive with extended family in tow. Food choices were wide and everything came out hot, and as ordered. Could use a few more healthy choices, but really can't complain about this place! Kids loved the bowls of popcorn waiting for them when they sat down. read more

This place is the worst!!!!! Waited 20 min for apps. Then asked about them and got a whole story about how busy they are, but soooooo many empty tables. The apps we ordered where soup??? You pour it in a cup, not that hard you would think. The food is all from cans and frozen. The interior rug in this place is more beat up looking than the wait staff. Manager came over to say sorry for the wait and just started arguing with me about "how" busy they are. I think she was just taking her fat aggression out on us. Never going back!! Patrons beware. read more

Took kids for a quick bite, they had the kids burger and I had a salad, the kids burger was big, reasonably priced and tasty. Needless to say I also had a salad. The waitress was pleasant and I plan on going back in the hope that this experience was not a flash in the pan, one off, fluke, ahh just pick one. read more

If you're looking for a fancy, romantic dinner, this is not the place for you. On the other hand, if you're looking for amazing pub food, the Bentley Pub will rock your world. We've come here many times. The service is always prompt and pleasant; the food always hits the spot. Looking for a beer or a cocktail? They've got those too. read more

Stopped on the way to Fenway for our daughters birthday. It was the restaurant's birthday too! Service was excellent , food very good and dessert was great too! Will stop by again. read more

Cozy family friendly pub. French onion soup was delicious. Friendly staff. Cocktails and dinner was great

The worst meal in town. I ordered haddock on a Friday, it was like an old piece of rubber, and it didn't seem safe to eat, so it was thrown in the trash. My husband ordered a steak, well done, it was cooked on the outside very well done and red in the middle. The loaded potatoes are fake with bits of fake bacon in them. Disgusting. This was our first and last time, as $40 bucks went in the trash and we ended up ordering chinese! read more

Will not be going back. Service was terrible. I ordered beef stew and it came out barely lukewarm-when it came back, the toasted biscuit was gone -when I told the waitress, she went back and brought out the same one-now ice cold. She never came back again to check on us-when she did, she asked if I wanted a container for my stew (which I hadn't eaten because it didn't taste good)... I said "absolutely not" and she just walked away and came back with the full bill-both of our beer glasses had been empty for 10 mins... read more

Great food, great service. Really great time. Had a party of 8 with no problems, food came out just right and delish. Thanks Bentley Pub.

Stopped here on the way home from the Patriot's game. Had a nice meal with terrific service. Our waitress was Jessie and she was great, she was perfectly attentive. Everyone was happy with their meals. My older son had the salmon, I had the hot turkey sandwich, my husband had the turkey burger with feta and spinach and my younger son had pasta. read more
