    Always fast and great quality. We enjoy the pre lunch rush. The staff is helpful and I like the new additions to the menu.

    CHICKEN PARM PANINI (large) and CHICKEN PESTO PANINI (large)
    Jillian C.

    Hard to find good paninis from a fast-food/takeout type of place but Hot Table has the best! This place offers a variety of paninis so there are plenty to choose from. The quality of the bread they use for the paninis is very good. Can't wait to go back and try more!

    Where's the basil?
    G.w. S.

    First time customer, online order. Had difficulty choosing because of predominantly flavored mayo, so if I wanted chipolte or pesto, it was only in mayo. Ordered a caprese panini with roasted chicken. Not very toasted, in fact, those was the most bready panini I've ever had. Lots of mozzarella. Barely adequate amount of tomatoes on one side, more on the other (pictured), but that's not my main complaint. Hardly any basil. Couldn't taste any basil, to point that I questioned if there was any. Found a few small leaves (pictured). If I hadn't added chicken, I would have been livid. What I got tasted fine, but I would not call it a caprese. Most likely not return. On the plus side, staff was very good! That is what made it not one star.

    Santa Fe Veggie Panini
    Vu T.

    We were searching around for a spot that would have a vegetarian meal and we found Hot Table. They offer several different types of paninis, as well as, three vege options. It was great that these sandwiches would be served hot! We ended up getting a SANTA FE VEGGIE PANINI (chipotle mayo, shredded pepper jack cheese, fire roasted corn, black beans, red onions, jalapeños peppers, tomatoes) and a CHICKEN PARM PANINI (roasted chicken, marinara sauce, provolone cheese, shaved parmesan cheese, roasted onions, roasted red peppers). We pre-ordered before the store was open. When we arrived, the order was already bagged up on a cart near the express checkout. Since we had already paid online, via their website, we were able to pickup and go. The Worcester location is inside a plaza with plenty of available parking. The restaurant was very clean and the employees were busy making all the orders. There were about five customers already in line when the store opened. Everyone was wearing masks and maintaining 6' distance. It was our first time trying these paninis and to our surprise, these were AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!!! It was just enough sauce to ingredients. The bread was crispy with a nice chew on the inside. Both paninis were so good! We are definitely putting Hot Table on our rotation to return. Definitely recommend!

    You really can't go wrong with that amazing fresh bread and cheese and all the fresh toppings they have here. I tried the Santa fe panini and it's delicious and healthy. They have a wide range of different tried and tested paninis or you can make your own!

    Panini with chicken and veggies
    Neeru G.

    I went to Hot table during lunch time. It was crowded! And ofcorse it should be because their paninis are Bomb! I chose "build my own panini", chose pesto mayo and asked the server to add chicken and every possible vegetable . I got medium panini so it was big enough to share with my husband lol. I also got their veg chilli which was great!

A menu board is posted over the order counter and two soft drink coolers to choose a bottled beverage from are next to the cashier. The menu offers a variety of sandwiches, salads and soups. There are a lot of sauces you can add to your sandwich if the menu doesn't specify what condiments are included. You can also make your sandwich a 'platter' if you want to add fries, onion rings and coleslaw to your sandwich. I ordered the roast beef and asked for horse radish sauce. There was a *lot* of sauce on this sandwich. So much so, that was all I could really taste so I'm not sure if I actually like their roast beef or not. I should have asked if I could get it 'on the side' I suppose. Live and learn. From what I could see under the sauce, the roast beef is cooked very rare. It was difficult to chew through and with all that sauce it made for a very messy meal. We ate in their dining room which is a small, pleasant space with lots of old photos of Worcester. The napkins available at the table are kind of useless. They smear the mess, they don't mop it up. I used a LOT of napkins trying to keep tidy while eating my sandwich. The fries were very good when hot. Crispy outside, fluffy inside. The coleslaw was almost without flavor. Salt and pepper are on the table. You're going to want those. Just watch that salt shaker, it comes out FAST! There is one restroom for all guests at the back, past the kitchen. It's clean and in good working condition.

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!

Positively nothing disappoints. Ever. I can make a dozen recommendations but truly no matter what you get it will not let you down or leave you hungry. Gets crazy for lunch and can be wild on the weekend for pizza but it's 10000000% worth the trouble to get here and the wait. Service is wonderful and if you have the time to sit in and have a meal, do try to. It's very small, very casual and feels like having the best lunch you ever had at your aunties house. As mentioned it's rarely quiet in there so take out is best overall. I recommend calling ahead for sliced deli meats or things like that as they really appreciate that. If you ever see the cherry cobbler in the fridge do not skip it - you'll regret that. Here's the inside tip - there is not a better Caesar salad with chicken this side of the Mississippi. Dead serious about that !!! They have my business for life and possibly beyond. I'll be haunting the place for arancini balls as a ghost.

When I finally got with the subs the bread was going stale, there was barely any meats or cheese on it. My wife's ham and cheese was way more cheese than ham - and the pickles she was upcharged for were missing until she found them all piled in one section of the sub. Really no clue this was always a good place, but if I have to go out of the way to get this quality it's not worth it.

He also cut off a piece of the lamb shawarma for me to taste and a mini baklava to try as I headed out. Such a small yet significant gesture. My favorite part of the meal had to be the little red chili they had on the side. All ingredients were fresh too so double points for that. My only negative had to be that the falafel's flavor was pretty distant but I'd definitely go back to try a different meal (most likely the lamb shawarma )
