We hosted an in-person networking event at Granite Links and it was incredible. First, huge shout out to our server, Nicole. She made the entire experience amazing - remembering details about drink/food/refill preferences and making great recommendations. The ambiance is perfect for an event because the view is incredible. For the golfers, you can hire golf pros and the novices can have access to equipment for practicing. For those that don't enjoy golf (self included) there's an unparalleled view of the city and tons of drinks and appetizers. Our favorites were the tater tots and the mudslides (recommendation credit goes to Nicole!). I highly recommend planning an event here or just visiting for an excellent date night; you will not be disappointed! read more

Excellent food. Lovely ambiance. Prices are a bit high, but considering venue and level of nastiness, they're understandable. Enjoy special meals here for scenery and food. read more

Good food lovely ambience. Great views of Boston. Tables set well apart so you don't feel crowded. Interesting food thoughtfully prepared. Great service. read more

Good food but service was slow. Waitress was a bit distracted.Nice atmosphere and ambiance.

I really don't write reviews (probably my first one on Google) but had to so others won't experience the same. I booked a morning tee time as a single player then after I checked in was told by the starter because the other three players brought another player (?) that I had to play alone. Very confusing. Fine I thought because I assumed earlier tee times were wide open so I can just quickly play through. What ended up happening was I had to go past two groups until eventually joining (?!) a group to play with four other players. Got yelled by the marshall for doing this but he didn't have much to talk back after I explained the situation. After the round, I went back to the pro shop just to understand how such mess up can happen. The older manager nudged at the younger attendant (even without looking at me) and wasn't interested in explaining at all. Boston has been my hometown for many years and folks have been very kind and nice to me despite the fact that I am east asian with heavy international accent so I really really hope that race wasn't a factor in all the things that happened to me today. Maybe management should reconsider/reflect on why the course is now struggling to get enough accolades that it once used to. read more

We booked Granite links for a bridal shower in February. The Event Coordinator was very helpful when booking the venue and was also available to answer any questions we had right up to the shower. The staff at the shower were great as well! They were very attentive to our needs throughout the day. We had the brunch buffet and the food was excellent! The ball room was very bright and cheerful and the view was spectacular! We highly recommend Granite Links for your next event! read more

Starting off my golf season at Granite Links was intimidating at first since I was rusty from not playing for months. Usually courses like Granite Links is reserved for later in the season but not anymore. The staff was extremely professional as soon as I entered the pro shop, the carts were clean, the rangers were beyond helpful. We had a 1:00 tee time but managed to complete our round in time despite my foursome being new to the course. Even in situations where we had a blind shot, a ranger was there to point out where the ball landed. The conditions were fantastic. It was nice to hit from a lush fairway and putt on a great green-- all the while the skyline of Boston was just off to the side. We had the tour experience. We ended up closing out our round with dinner at the tavern. This alone is worth a trip. If you want to actually enjoy your round from start to finish- definitely consider making Granite Links your go-to. You deserve it. read more

I went to my second wedding reception at G/L over the weekend. Once again, the ambience was magical, the service was terrific, and the food was fantastic. I have seldom been to a wedding where the food was edible, much less fantastic like this. At this last event, our server was Jennifer from Norwell. She was a gem! I've been to G/L's bar and restaurant several times, and the service and food are great there as well. Now I have to try the course! read more

We were here for golf clinics and the view is amazing!!! The bar drinks and food menu is good. Definitely would come back with friends many more time read more

Went 9/9/2023 and got a drink at the window where two blonde girls were working. I used my card and a couple days later when the total cleared extra money was taken out of my account. I called the Tavern and spoke with the manager Jill and she did that there are no hidden fees or anything so she isn't sure why the extra money was removed from my account but assured me she would look into it. She has never called me back and I have called several times to find out what happened. Keep receipts and check accounts when leaving this place or you may also have money missing from your account. I had to add a star to post or this place would have gotten zero since management never followed up, and money has been missing. read more

This place has great Desserts!!! Service is good and the location is beautiful! They have a good variety of cocktails and their Choco lava cake is the best. Ambience : 4/5 Food: 3.5/5 Dessert: 5/5 Drinks: 4/5 read more

Overpriced golf - unfriendly staff. You'd have to be an idiot to be a member here. Conditions were good. Ranger was an a-hole. Hey, I just spent $150 to play, so be courteous. My group consisted of 4 experienced low-handicap players - and we're all members at other places. We don't need to be told to pick up the pace when we're waiting for the group in front of us. If you're looking for a "private club experience" for a day, Granite Links is NOT THE PLACE. BTW - food was average. Yes, views were terrific. There's many better places on the South Shore to pay daily fee golf. read more

Great location, food and views for both golf and lunch! I'm a good and drink snob and I never leave disappointed

This review is seriously overdue, as our wedding was in July, but our experience with Granite Links was so incredible I wanted to be sure to give the Granite Links the stellar review it deserves. My husband and I were married July 30, 2017 at Granite Links. We had chosen Granite Links as our vendor several months in advance (March, I think). We were immediately hooked up with Linda Blackmore the Senior Sales Manager and event coordinator who would help us plan our entire event. Linda was absolutely fantastic--she knows her stuff, is right to the point with everything, and has excellent suggestions re: vendors. She was with us every step of the way, tolerated and responded to our thousands of emails, and was there the day of the wedding to be sure everything went smoothly. Our family and friends continue to tell us it was the best wedding they've ever been to. We have Granite Links to thank for that-- the venue is absolutely beautiful, the views of Boston over the greens of the course are gorgeous, the sunset is unbeatable and the food is delicious. The staff ensured that everything went completely seamlessly-- my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of. I highly recommend Granite Links as a wedding venue to anyone who is looking--it's a decision you won't regret (see attached photos!) read more

It's ok. 4.5 stars. I was expecting more, as the menu is pretty standard and offering nothing special. There is not a traditional brunch buffet, so you're relegated to the menus. Great use and repurpose of the quarries up here and the view is beautiful. The Tavern likes to make money, and that's obvious. The course is beautiful and you've a nice view from the Tavern. The Tavern seems a little discombobulated... no juice available, the middle-aged waitress seems disinterested in us as a customer and chews her gum like a cowing noshing on her cud. Ordered the Par Five. Two eggs, two Pieces of bacon, one sausage, potatoes and an English muffin. Not bad, the potatoes were the best part as they had a few pieces of sweet potato to mix things up. Had to ask for a second juice and butter/jelly. Over all... it was OK. I was expecting more. I'd try them for dinner. However, if you're looking for a traditional brunch buffet... this is not it. read more

Broke down driving range dispenser and three employees no one was responsible cared or would do anything. What a waste.

I will be honest, I did not play golf while I was at Granite Links, I was chaperoning the prom. The ballroom is beautiful and I was impressed with how clean it was. After my chaperoning duties were over, I snuck downstairs to the bar and the bartender was kind and the wine pours were generous. There are some beautiful views of the city from up there too. Worth stopping for a drink if you are in the area. read more

For the $150 price, you get 60 mph gusting winds, no horizon to track your ball, layouts that lead to the wrong green, a ranger with a bug up his ass, and a layout so confusing you inevitably end up on the wrong hole! F*** this place, I lost 7 balls that were hit right down the middle, but with no reference points it's impossible to find them!!!! No thank you!!! read more

Granite Links' Ballroom is the BEST place to host a wedding. The Boston skyline view, the spacious ballroom, the huge windows overlooking the golf course, the balcony, and the staff are reason enough to pick this venue over others. But can we just talk about the food? Incredible! We had lobster rolls and lamb lollipops and a Mediterranean table and a dessert station and an included Montillio's cake, and sea bass, filet, chicken, and mushroom ravioli for dinner choices. Theresa was our coordinator, and she worked with us through a postponed date from 2020, a revised date, and a reduced invitation list due to more recent COVID concerns from our guests who were traveling. Our decor was extensive including the chuppah and rented gold curtain, but Theresa and her team got everything right, down to the votive candles on the tables. There are not enough thank you's to express our appreciation for a wonderful time! Be sure to tour Granite Links while you are venue shopping, you will be surprised at how fantastic it truly is! The BEST! read more

PROS Beautiful views of Boston and an extremely scenic golf course as you look down from the higher elevations. I love coming here in the Fall to see the leaves changing. The conditions are generally very good. The course sees a lot of play but they do a great job maintaining it. Extremely close to Boston. Looking at 15 - 20 minutes. In the Summer with Cape Traffic, it might take a little longer but you're not stuck in the really long slog like you'd be if heading to golf courses south of Boston. Good clubhouse. I don't really spend much time here but it's a pretty nice place. The pro shop is well stocked and fairly upscale for a public course. CONS There are definitely some wonky holes. The splendor that you get from the first tees on Granite and Milton is not always seen as you get into some of the lower elevation holes that run up against the edges of the property. There are also a lot of short par 4s which can be fun but I think are better used sparingly. Don't expect to complete a weekend round in under 5 hours. There are two warmup greens but no real short game practice area that you would find at other top public courses like Pinehills. NOTES Granite Links is divided into three 9 hole courses: Granite, Milton and Quincy. At any time, one of those 9 is reserved for members so you don't really have a choice. That said, if you come in the Fall on a slow day, you can usually take your pick. All around, I would say that the Milton 9 is the best. The Quincy 9 is not as scenic but I really like the layout of most of the holes. The Granite 9 has a few good holes but is by far the most disappointing, especially towards the end of the round. The driving range here is a nice place to come in the evening with a friend as it stays open fairly late (they have lighting) and you can grab a beer and a sandwich at the tent while you work on your game. The course can get quite windy and while they've trimmed down a lot of the fescue and the fairways are typically quite wide, there is usually at least one side on each hole that is very unforgiving. It can actually be a pretty fun place to play in the wind and practice your technique as it typically blows fairly steadily in one direction rather than swirling around. My Yelp rating for this course in the Summer would be closer to 2 stars. The pace of play is very slow and the rates are pretty ridiculous. I will always have a soft spot for Granite as I've had some great experiences there over the years since I began golfing. You can find some great tee time specials in the Fall here which is the perfect time to go. The 4-5 rounds I play here annually in the bumper months make up for the futility of trying to play here in the Summer. read more

FYI. We didn't get to attend a wedding here or have one. However, I had to review their phenomenal service. My sister and I was planning her wedding and she loved Granite Links. However, life throw you curveballs and we had to reevaluate and rethink the wedding details. Granite Links was worked with us - no fuss, no muss. We hope to have a chance to attend future weddings here. If their staff is any indication of service you'll receive, you'll be well taken care of. read more

Shitty ass food and shitty ass server. Fuk dis place although the vew was 10 Orr. Of 10

My brother treated me to a round at this course the other day and both of us were incredibly satisfied with our experience and what we received for the price of greens fees. This course is obviously on the pricier side but it is 100% worth the cost of admission. Golf carts all have GPS in them that pinpoint your exact location on each hole and the change I pin location for each day. These gps's are critical for first time players because it is a rarity to actually see where your ball lands on this course due to its elevation. The carts also track score and restrict driving abilities in certain areas of the course which seems annoying but in my opinion makes people follow the rules which are meant to keep the course in shape. There are three 9 hole courses here titled; Milton, Quincy, and Granite. We played Quincy and Granite and were both blown away by the views of both the city and the south shore bay/coastline. Both sets of 9 were in impeccable condition and presented challenging and cool hole locations and fairways. The course was true to its New England nature in that it was hilly and had a lot of slopes to adjust to. Would definitely go here again and perhaps make it a yearly trip as it is still a costly round of golf. That being said I do feel like I enjoyed a round of golf that was akin to the price I paid! read more

I've spent a lot of time here and at crossing nines over the past few years and was extremely disappointed tonight. I was there with my wife tonight to celebrate our 6th month wedding anniversary and left rather quickly instead of enjoying our night. After some waiting time after sitting down we got our drinks ordered. When drinks got to our table we were encouraged to order our meals with our appetizer because they were busy which we weren't keen on we ordered our meals. After less than 5 minutes we received our entrees that were less than desirable without our app. I got a dish that was lukewarm and thought it was out for 20 minutes with an option of a side that was missing and the wife got a bowl that felt like it premade and missing all flavor. Our waitress didn't come over for 15 minutes after we were done with our sub par meals to ask if we needed anything. Everything felt rushed and it was not enjoyable. She claimed that she forgot to put in our app even though it was written down stating that we wanted the app to come out before everything else . Guess we have to order everything one at a time along with bringing a heat lamp to heat up our meals if we ever return. read more

Went here for a round of golf with a good friend of mine. We go on a yearly bday golf trip and this place did not disappoint. Great golf course, well maintained, with beautiful skyline views of Boston. The round is worth every dime and the staff are super friendly. We'll be playing here again! read more

5 stars for Granite Links Thanksgiving pickup dinner Michelle Reid and her team should be rewarded for the excellent work they did. Easy to order easy to pick up so well packaged and prepared. The best part was the quality and quantity of the Thanksgiving feast they prepared. The turkey white meat and dark meat was flavorful and well seasoned for reheating . Terrific stuffing mashed potatoes rolls / cornbread / cranberry chutney / salad green beans butternut squash and two wonderful pies This was terrific as our daughter and husband just brought hoke their first born last week. We were looking for a quality take home option as we had travelled in to be with them. Nothing but 5 stars for Granite Links read more

Thanksgiving dinner 2022 was meh. nothing at all to write home about. menu wasn't great. We opted for the traditional turkey dinner. lots of dark meat included - which neither of us like. boring stuffing. Stingy on the gravy. hard cubed butternut squash & plain green beans, mashed potatoes. cranberry sauce was goId. not a thing outstanding about this special occasion dinner. read more

Ordinarily a great restaurant, Granite Links disappointed me tonight. I recommend skipping the Mac & Cheese: the sauce was thin and runny and the short ribs ($10 up charge) consisted of three small bites of beef. My companions were satisfied with baked haddock and filet mignon. The dessert was just ok. We had carrot cake, key lime pie, and chocolate mousse. read more

This afternoon was the perfect setting for a beautiful lunch up at Granite links. Between the very attentive waitress, the ambience it set the mood for a delightful lunch . The food was amazing ; let me suggest the turkey gobbler ! Just the way it was cooked and the gravy and cranberries that accompanied it , made for a delicious lunch ! read more

As it relates to weddings: The place was beautiful and the staff was great with one serious exception. The blonde lady working the bar was INCREDIBLY rude. I witnessed her throw her arms in the air and roll her eyes as costumers, asking if they could order a drink, were immediately turned around (by her). Unbeknownst to them, the bar was apparently not open at these particular times. She showed a clear dissatisfaction for her job took it out on the customers, which directly affected their experience at the wedding. Multiple patrons expressed this same dissatisfaction. We all experience difficulties in our lines of work. We should NEVER let our poor attitudes or "bad day" have this dramatic of an effect on customers. Especially when it is the one day of someone's life that they should be able to enjoy with no issues. read more

A group of 10 high school friends (in their 70's) got together on 10/14/22. It was an amazing experience. The service was spectacular and the food was awesome! Our waitress was very attentive and we did not feel rushed. The manager gifted us a couple of appetizers which was very special and very much appreciated. I highly recommend Granite Links! read more

Loved everything here! Waitresses are awesome! Food excellent! Drinks delish!! Highly recommend Granite links! . Thank you read more

Food quality is good. Quantity was modest (my filet was about 5 ounces). Wine well priced and tasty. Service was good despite it getting busy. I noticed our waiter padded the bill with $10 extra when I got my CC statement ($93 check - left $19 tip which should have been $112, but CC charged $122). I'd go again, but next time take a photo of receipt. This seems to have happened quite a few times in the past year at various places. Not usually $10, but a couple bucks here and there. read more

Went to the Tavern last night. Was seated on the outdoor deck. Pleasant view, nice breeze. After seating, no sign of any interest in serving us although there were 3 servers working the room. After 19 minutes a couple was seated near us and you guessed it, two minutes later the waitress came and took their order. Don't think we were the only ones with that problem last night. read more

So sad that this place has gone down in service. I've always loved the food here, and the views are amazing, but after the second time in a row now with horrible service I'm sad to say I will not be coming back. I took my mom out for a late Mother's Day lunch. Our drinks arrived well after our appetizers. Our waiter did not ask us how our food was. He was too busy chatting it up with what looked to be the manager. My dad asked for a drink that he forget to get. We would've got another round of drinks but we sat at our table so long with empty drinks that we said forget it. He finally took our food order when the apps were long gone, and we proceeded to wait an HOUR and A HALF for a turkey club and a quinoa bowl! I would not recommend anyone coming here unless you want to spend all afternoon waiting for a salad and sandwich. read more
