For the town watering hole, Lewis' is a gem. They have great food cheap, but nothing fancy in the service department. Order at the bar, and they'll bring your food to the table. Their chef is very creative; everything I ordered was delicious! I haven't tried Lewis' hamburger special with egg salad, but it's just a matter of time! The bar has special drinks and a great beer selection ..There's a guy or gal in the dedicated Keno booth when you enter the bar for your playing convenience. I take all my out of town friends here for lunch and an initiation to Lewis'. read more

Maybe it's because we are from NC but the food and beer prices here were much higher than I expected. We were in town for work and decided to try a good dive bar. Thankfully someone told us we had to order at the bar. We ordered the brunch burger and BCD. The BCD was terrrrible. The only redeeming factor was that it was spicy. There were about 4 chunks of meat in that dip and that was it. The rest was just a sloppy mess. The burger was excellent (thus the 3 stars). Beers were over $6 and the prices were not listed anywhere. read more

$11 for a Lewis Burger you can shove your $11 Burger up your ass sideways. Bartender was some old guy that doesn't even look at you and asks you what you want. then you tell him and he ignores you for 5 minutes while he washes glasses. Sign on the wall says bud light drafts 2.75 and they charge 3.50. They got three stars because I came during game time and I got $5 Lewis Burger sliders. It's a townie bar I would never come back unless it's game time for app specials read more

"Great Burgers, Drinks, and Much More!" When we are in the Norwood area this is our go to spot for Lunch & Drinks! From what we hear, Lewis's is pretty much a Norwood staple. We were told that it has been around since the 40s and it features some Awesome, affordable food options alongside some great cold drinks. Whether you want to grab a cold one and a snack or try one of their famous burgers or lunch specials, there's something here for everyone. One thing that does help them stand apart from other bars though is their OVC cocktail: an orange vodka collins which features some freshly squeeze OJ. It's amazing, they squeeze the oranges right at the bar can't be any fresher than that! They have a very extensive menu of your typical bar food. I usually get the chicken finger basket with tater tots, or the pastrami and tots which is always great. They make good mixed drinks and you have to order at least one OVC while you are there. My friend ordered the fish & Chips substute with tater tots, huge piece of fish cooked perfect, Wow. There is another side to the restaurant and bar where you can sit with a family and enjoy a good meal and catch sports on the large tv's. The bar is good and they have an area for private parties or to just hang out on the couches and chairs. They have live music in this part as well. We will always be back, Great service, Food, and Drinks! read more

Delicious steak tips and service was great. The prices were reasonable and portion size was fabulous. We will definitely visit again on our next trip to Norwood. read more

This is an old biker bar, it is on the small side. Food was pretty good. I had the meatball app, different than what you usually seen on the menu. Very good cheese side to the meatball with tomato sauce on top of meatball. read more

Do you like EGG SALAD and BACON CHEESEBURGERS? Me too! I like it even better if the egg salad is right on top of said cheese burger with canadian bacon. That's what you get when you order the Lewis Burger. Do you like BOOOOOZE? Me too! Fresh squeezed OJ and Vodka by the pint. Do you like paintings of NUDE WOMEN coming out of BEER BOTTLES? Walk in the door and look at the walls: Feast your Eyes!!! Do you like GRIZZLED OLD MEN? Me neither! That's why I rated it only 4 stars! read more

We have been going to Lewis' for over 30 years and have ALWAYS gotten the Lewis burger... even though I feel like I'm cheating on it, I've switched to the Ruben. It's huge and so so good. My only bad review would be the iced tea.. it's nasty. Ok, so I get a drink instead ! read more

This is yet another reason not to be excited about Norwood, Massachusetts. Lewis's in two words is quite simply 'not the best thing since sliced bread'. If you want to go to an OK bar with OK prices and an OK mix of a crowd, Lewis's IS OK for that. But please, don't bother traveling all the way to Norwood for the so called famous Lewis Burger. This is a major let down. The Lewis Burger in theory is awesome, it's a burger topped with egg and bacon - yeah should be the best but it just fails to deliver. I went there for Sunday afternoon football last weekend and the place was so not abuzz or in a good mood or even paying attention to the games, what a waste of gas. Oh well, like I said - just one more reason to forget about Norwood, Massachusetts. read more

I finally made it to Lewis' the other night. Yes, the entrance door is a bit shady, but was very happy with my experience there. My nephew got the chicken tender basket & I got a wrap with their onion strings. Let me tell you, the best onion rings we have ever had. My waitress was a sweetheart as well. Planning on going back on a saturday night to check out the bar scene. I hear it gets a good crowd....for this area. read more

To quote Tool, this place is the way, the truth, and the light. I go about once a week to Lewis'. The food is consistently good. I recommend the OJ and Vodka, and the wings. One note- do not order any of the specials. Paradoxically, the specials are usually the worst offerings. Also the Keno guy in the front bar is a real SOB. The numbers played always come out the round after you stop playing. read more

Food and service is always great. The lobster roll that is currently on special is a must have!!

Great Lewis Burgers, I always want to try some of their other offerings, which I hear are great, but always resort back to the burger, oh and of course OVC and sweet potato fries, read more

I've only been here twice, both times were dead (during the day). It would be great for a game or Friday night. Both times we've gotten potato skins and burgers. both times they were excellent. read more

Lewis' - Bacon Cheeseburger & shoestring onion rings. So good! - Sports Bars Near Me - Norwood, Massachusetts

My wife and I went in last week and the food was great as always. But wow the service was so bad! She was so upset that I could not talk her out of not going back to eat here again. It had taken me a week to write this review to make sure I write it correctly. It took our server to get to our table 15 minutes. Let me back up and say we went in a Thursday at 5 PM. After 20 mins are order was taken it took 15 minutes to get our beverages and another 15 for our order to get taken. After our drinks came we had no silverware and we started to see a few other tables get bread. While our server was at the bar talking to some regulars. Shortly we got the feeling if you weren't a regular your service was not going to be be that good. I have to say the hostess with the short brown hair was great and trying to help things along. After spending $60.00 dollars I just don't see going back. read more

We were in the mood for a really good burger. We wanted a new place to try. I had heard good things about this place, so decided to give it a try. We ate in the more family-friendly dining room. There was a huge multi-generational party going on in the center of the room. It was busy and we waited about 15 minutes for a table. We started off with a basket of onion rings. The "basket" was huge, for about $5. They were thin and crispy, just the way I like them. I ordered a burger with caramelized onions, Swiss cheese and mayo. My guy got the Lewis burger, substituting Swiss cheese for American cheese. The brioche bun was fresh and delicious. The burger was thick and perfectly cooked to medium, as we requested. I got the au gratin potatoes. They were good. We really liked just about everything about this place and will definitely return when we want a REALLY good burger. One more thing we noticed, my guy ordered a 20 oz. Yeungling and it only cost $3.75. He was pleasantly surprised. Our whole bill was about $38 and we were stuffed when we left. Score! read more

Lewis' - Burger with au gratin potatoes. Basket of onion rings in the background. - Sports Bars Near Me - Norwood, Massachusetts

Delicious no frills Lewis Burger served at the bar on paper plates. They also serve your cocktails in a pint glass which is always a plus plus plus in my book! read more

We walked in to the dining room area and were immediately seated. The waitress was extremely friendly and quick with our drink orders. Their fall drinks are really delicious! We ordered the buffalo chicken potato skins which were really really good and I had the chipotle steak tips. Everything was so delicious. I will definitely go back again! read more

Burgers and menu as a whole has definitely changed. Overall, it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't memorable. This isn't the place to go for food, but for friends and a good, casual time. Since we're out of towners, that missed the mark for us. read more

I gave Lewis' 5 stars back in 2011. It was my favorite place to go for steak tips and salads. We no longer go there as often, but got to go from there tonight and this confirms why we don't go often. The salad I got did not even fill even a portion of the container (they used to be generous with portions). It was like 4 croutons and some wilted lettuce. With the steak tips it was like $16. Ridiculous. read more

Lewis' - This was a $16 salad. The salad alone costs $7.50. $7.50 for a tiny bit of lettuce and 4 croutons. - Sports Bars Near Me - Norwood, Massachusetts

Not sure what all the fuss is about. Townie bar for sure with the ebb and flow of regulars. Service is good and the clam chowder is decent. Burgers had a distinct off flavor that I've identified as burnt grease. There are a lot of places that make a decent burger, Lewis however is not one of them. Based on the other reviews here I'm thinking folks in Norwood don't get out much. read more

Worst service ordered out was told to pick up on the bar side. Stood there for 5-10 minutes as people working there completely ignored us. Finally grabbed someone to help us and says oh you have to go to the other bar. Same crap service, the manager looks right at me and turns and walks away to stock shelves finally got someone's attention. It took 15 minutes or so from the time we walked in...would have been faster sitting down and ordering then again based on the lack of service probably not. This place typically doesn't have good service but tonight was crap.........The food was AMAZING though read more

I work near Lewis's and have been going there for lunch for years. Initially I found it because of a "dining for miles" promotion, which they've since abandoned, yet I continue to be a patron. I always sit at the back bar, which seems to be where all the locals and regulars congregate. It is dark enough that on bright days you're blind when you enter, until your pupils have time to adjust. As many have said, the lewis burger is a must-try. It's a funny sounding mix, but it tastes great. The steak tips are another solid choice, and they have good burgers, pizza, and sandwiches. Lately they have had a stuffed quahog special which is delicious! The bartenders are always very friendly, and still welcome you back with open arms after you've had one too many on your last visit. (don't ask me how I know this..) The fresh squeezed orange juice and movies at lunch are a nice touch, too. If you're in the area, give it a try. Emily and the rest of the staff will make you feel like you're a regular in no time! read more

I went here for the first time this past weekend with my husband and sat on the restaurant side. I was really impressed! We ordered buffalo tenders and tater tots for an appetizer and it would have been enough food for a whole meal for us both. Any place in New England with tater tots is automatically a leg up in my book as tots seem to be really hard to come by around here. We had ordered dinner entrees - my husband got the pepperoni pizza and I got the lamb burger special. My burger was amazing - one of the only places I have actually had a burger cooked the way I asked for it since moving out to the suburbs. I got coleslaw for my side - it's made daily in house; it was light and delicious. The service was good, but I was really impressed with the food. read more

I come here a lot on Thursday nights - mainly in the back room. Great wait staff. Always on top of things. Very good beer selection. A lot of variety on the menu. read more

Grew up in Norwood, but have only been here twice (both within the past year) and both times, I just had drinks so I can't judge their grub. As far as drinks, I loaded up on OVC's, freshly squeezed orange juice, 'nuff said. Next time I go in, I'll make sure to try the Lewis burger (Along with a healthy amount of OVC). read more

Wish there were 10 stars to give! One of the best burgers I have ever had! The prices cannot be beat either! Just moved to Norwood and we are SO happy we found this place. No frills..great bar staff..plenty of parking. Highly recommended! read more

Gorgonzola Steak Tips and Burgers for days!

Lewis burgers should be mandatory eating!

One of the best pubs in Norwood. Service is great & the food is even better. The Buffalo Mac N Cheese is always a crowd pleaser and you can never go wrong with a burger. read more

Overall, the food here is great and we very rarely are disappointed. The drinks are strong and so good. The service is quick and efficient. The energy here is always upbeat and you leave feeling so positive. The wait staff are great and treat you like a regular even if you are not. Not sure who their chef is but he is amazing. It is not the usual pub fair here. The food is unique and always good. You have to try the OVCs if you have never tried it. So yummy and super strong! read more

This is my go to in the area - what's better than a bar with EXCELLENT food - not fancy - just done well. Fresh squeezed juice that everyone raves about for a long pour of vodka in the OVC. The classic Reuben and Cubans both terrific and for burgers yes the Lewis'. Super thin cut onion rings and thick cut sweet potato waffle fries both DELISH and done perfectly. Townie bar, a little low brow on the decor - covered in TVs to take in some sports - just the way I like it. read more

Had steak tips tonight. Asked for medium rare. They were well done. Had to downgrade stars. I will stick to the steak and cheese.

My friend and I decided to visit Lewis' last night, for a pre St Patrick's day night out. I haven't been there in a long time, so I felt we were in for a treat. We had to wait for a table, not too long, enough time for us to get a drink at the bar during the wait. We ended up at a table near the host stand, and were thoroughly entertained by the lovely hostess during most of the visit. Our waitress, Eileen, however, was absolutely disrespectful our entire visit. She barely stopped by our table, and when she was there, she would only stop for a second or two, and then wouldn't come back for at least a half an hour each time. When our separate bills were brought to us, she had overcharged me for my drink, as the bartender had charged me a different price for the same drink. When I decided to ask about it, she declared that the bartender had "undercharged" me, and she turned to my friend and told her that she had undercharged my friend for her wine. She demanded I tell her which bartender served us, and she took my check back to her POS system to discuss further with her coworkers. She then came back to our table and gave me my check back, let me know that she adjusted the cost, but that "in the future I have to pay what I am charged", and turned and said the same to my friend, who wasn't even asking about her check. She ran our cards, brought back our checks and just turned and walked away. We could see her in the back pointing at us and talking to the other waitresses and the hostess about us, very disheartening! We won't be returning, probably ever! Our food was great, and the hostess was very sweet, and the waitress could have salvaged our bad time out had she thought about what she was going to say to us, instead of having a horrendous attitude. read more

This is a true Lewis's story - at least I choose to believe it. A guy hadn't been in to Lewis's for about 7 years. He goes in one night and sits at the bar. After he orders a beer, an old guy he recognizes from the "old days" comes out of the Men's Room and sits down beside him. The old dude lights up a smoke, looks over at him, and says "So like I was sayin,' " and starts talking. Old dude recognized him and though that he had been there all along. Now That's a regular. Burgers are good, fries are huge orders - split one. read more

Townie Heaven... The Lewis burger is quite good... Weather your drunk or not. The reason why I gave it 3 stars is the service. They defiantly cater to there locals. read more

We moved to Norwood in November and have enjoyed several restaurants and bars in the area. Lewis's is our go-to walk to dinner place and we love the food here as much as our favorite places in Boston. ALL of the bartenders and servers are awesome- but we do have to give a shout out to Scott, Mike, and Marisa who are unbelievably welcoming. This is your casual dress but amazing food and service place. read more

Pretty typical bar food. They have a nice selection of "special" beers offered but the ones I pick seem to always be out. Guess that just shows how popular some drinks are. I've had the nachos, buffalo chicken dip, boneless chicken tenders, pizza, and fish & chips. They were all delicious except I wouldn't get the buffalo chicken dip again. Pretty oily and wasn't sure if there was even chicken in it. Gets pretty busy so it's definitely a popular spot. read more

Hole in the wall GEM. If you go here, you MUST try the "Lewis" burger. What a treat. Pair it with some their fantastic fries, wash it down with a Guinness or Sam Adams and your taste buds will thank you! read more

Decent but nothing to write home about, and wouldn't have to write far because I've lived in Norwood my whole life. Food is good, drinks are alright. If you're not from Norwood then you may not appreciate this place as much as some, but being from Norwood I say it's overrated most of the time. If you're craving an OVC or a Lewis Burger, sure, go for it, they are great every now and then when you want it, but other then that, there are better places to chose from in the area. read more
