    We ordered from Fuel yesterday morning after returning home from a night shift. As usual, we were essentially ordering dinner at 9am. There's something about cranking out endless hospital admissions that makes me crave bready and cheesy and we're usually jonesing for pizza as our post work binge. Fortunately, Fuel America is kind enough to offer pizza at 9am during the week. We ordered a large cheese pizza. It was large so I will definitely give them a check in the size department. I also enjoyed their unusual interpretation of the shape of a circle, see my photo for details. The crust was RAZOR thin with very poor integrity. Folding the slice in half did not provide the support required against gravity and the tip of the slice was perpendicular, rather than the ideal-for-consumption parallel to the ground when held by the crust alone. When considering flavor alone, I would say "EH" which corresponds to a score of about 6/10 in my rating system. Noteworthy to mention, when I reheated it in the oven approx 40 hours later, I was expecting a sogfest. Despite the thinness of the crust, it did not absorb ANY grease and it was not IN THE LEAST bit soggy. Very pleasantly surprised. I wanted to top off my bready and cheesy with sweet and fruity and ordered one of their many varieties of intriguing acai bowls. They have a pina colada crush which immediately caught my eye with coconut sorbet, granola, pineapple, bananas, and coconut flakes. Ultimately I wanted to reap whatever health benefits everyone rubs off to acai about and I ordered the Aussie Bowl with acai sorbet, bananas, kiwi, pineapple, chia seeds, and coconut flakes. In retrospect, I didn't realize it was acai SORBET which changes the nutrition value a bit. The bowl was really delicious. Instead of a weak excuse for toppings, this bowl was absolutely packed with toppings. They put on essentially half of a banana, probably half of a kiwi, and a bunch of pineapple. One of the better acai bowls I've had in the area. Tina is a sandwich bitch and added an order of the West Coast sandwich with brie, spring mix with fig and pesto on multigrain ciabatta. I helped her out with this one and while she was disappointed by the few ingredients, I thought this was a nice and flavorful sandwich. The fig spread overpowered the brie a bit and I wish there was more of a representation of that flavor but over all, I would say a very solid sandwich.

    I walked into a relaxing atmosphere. Staff was really friendly. Some customers in there quietly studying. Others socializing with friends. I wasn't too sure what to get but i remembered on the website. There was a video of a customer mentioning how the acai bowls were good after a workout. So i decided to try it. Right away I was happy about the presentation. Good amount of fresh fruit sliced up carefully on top. Then the sweet frozen smoothie underneath with granola. I made sure to blend it in well. Now I understand to someone more familiar with acai bowls this is the usual. But for me it was my first one and a great starting point.

    Conveniently located across from a couple of hotels, this coffee spot is perfect for grabbing a cup of joe. The restaurant is very modern with a sleek, warehouse feel and lots of stainless steel. There was plenty of space for larger groups to meet as a family or for doing work. Make sure to check out the sidewall which has a row of comfy couches built-in. The service was fast, pleasant, and helpful. I had a cold brew which hit my caffeine need well. For breakfast, I ordered the avocado toast and much enjoyed it. There was a ton of avocado and salad on top. They sliced up a hard-boiled egg on top, which was a delightful addition. It's was a filling and healthy option.

    I love this table.

    Mixed feelings ! I have been in Worcester forever and I gotta say it's nice to see a new coffee place that's serious about coffee pop up in the new downtown development. I've been a few times and I gotta say it's a far cry from the old Java hut and the coffee kingdom ( showing my age if you remember those spots) but a little different than the newer brew on the grid across the common. I liked the food options a lot better here versus the former- seemed a little bit better thought out. The space is enormous so when things go back to normal I can see this place filling up with students but not many else than the people intended to occupy the new apartments close by. Not in a zillion years have people gone downtown to just hang out - not since they demolished the common outlet and downtown has been in much need of actual revival not just some shiny new construction. I digress. The cold brew was great and the lattes were frothy but didn't have the stronger espresso taste I was looking for. Cappuccino next time. The egg sandwiches were made to order but they use a frozen egg so I opted I'm out for just veggies. They also have nice selection of juices and sparkling water. If you stay in the AC hotel across the street I would get coffee and snacks here way before calling the 110.

    The place is so quit and cozy. I had one of the best lattes in my life it is clean and their pastry options are good (I tried cinnamon roll, it was delicious ) Highly recommended since not many cafe as it's level can be found in downtown Worcester

    Highland street location: 1. Tried one of the summer…read morespecials "tiramisu latte" with oatmilk and it was delicious and a reasonable price ($7.55). 2. Great gluten-free options. I tried the gluten free chocolate chip cookie and it was a good portion, soft and had lots of chocolate chips, also at a reasonable price ($4.82) 3. Very friendly staff and lots of options for both drinks and food 4. Lots of seating and has a bar to add in any sugar or toppings on your drink. Great place to study or sit on your laptop! 5. Parking was a little tricky as you can only park on one side of the street but didn't take long to get a spot right in front of the cafe!

It's got just the right mix of bounce, density, and butteriness, without being too greasy. Big, fresh blueberries (not the shriveled kind). Plenty of crumbly streusel on top for extra taste and texture. Their mixed berry has multiple fruit presence and more of it, minus the streusel. Also very good. Sometimes the muffins are warm. Sometimes a little long in the tooth. -- Cakes: That's their claim to fame, and for good reason. They're more expensive than most, but so dense, rich, and heavy that a small slice goes a long way. My favorite is the chocolate raspberry decadence (pool of raspberry atop a deep, dark chocolate frosting). Or maybe the strawberry snowflake, which is like the best strawberry shortcake you ever had. -- Cupcakes: These often feature some of the same ingredients as the cakes, such as that killer chocolate ganache. Great for the toppings and fillings, though the cake part (especially if chocolate base) is often dry. -- Cookies: Noticeably less impressive, EXCEPT for the Linzer heart. Great flavor and texture in the raspberry and shortbread. -- Coffee: Good stuff. Not elite, but good, in heavy mugs with good feel. Service is a little lacking. Not so much because of rudeness, but because they're perpetually understaffed for the amount of business they do.

My fiancé and I had been having a lot of trouble finding a venue that could host our crowd at a reasonable price, so we were beyond thrilled when Birchtree not only accommodated our 60 guests beautifully, but we actually ended up under budget. From start to finish, the service was phenomenal. The team was genuinely invested in making sure our night was perfect. They went above and beyond in every way and more than accommodated anything we needed. We had an outpouring of texts the next day from our guests. So many people let us know how beautiful the venue was and how wonderful of a time they had. The space itself truly showed a refined elegance which was the perfect kickoff to our wedding season. If you're thinking about working with BirchTree, Jayne, Caitlin, and the entire staff we're incredibly organized and attentive to detail, helping us set up, pack up, and even ensured all guests had clean tables, fresh drinks, and the bar staff recommended really unique cocktails & mocktails! We are so grateful to the entire BirchTree team, especially Jayne and Caitlin for helping us set the tone for our wedding. We would absolutely recommend having an event here - you will be in the best hands!

Space was nice and airy, art was cute, food was solidly mediocre. Everything was missing out on seasoning, except the tomato soup. The soup was solid. Bathrooms were quite dirty. The food cost too much.
