A few times, and enjoyed it both times. The first time I probably had one of their bowls and a mixed drink after seeing a movie in the cinema next door. Last night I had the steakhouse burger (partner had the same) with sweet potato fries and a glass of their house red. All very good, I would gladly come back for these items. My partner was also happy with his meals both times. The service was wonderful! It was a crowded Friday night, and the bar was full, but we were able to order our wine right away thanks to the attentive bartenders. Our table came up sooner than estimated, and our waiter was attentive and friendly. Our food came out quickly. We'll be back! read more

Waiter, Gabriel was a delight. He was on top of things no question. Both meals came out generally hot, except for the sweet potato fries, which were surprisingly close to room temperature. That was certainly disappointing. Crispy Korean sandwich was excellent. The baked tortellini. Bolognese was extremely salty. Definitely a solid comfort food. We were able to sit at the patio, which was bright and comforting. The inside atmosphere is way too dark for me. Almost like going into a nightclub. Coming in for seating was a bit frustrating. They had four people as graders. But had no clue where to see us so we walked around the entire place. I wanted to sit us at a high top then I said no thank you you rather have a table and then just made up my mind like just see us outside at a table. They clearly have no direction on what they're receiving plans should be to benefit the wait staff. They do have a very excellent beer menu. Generally not a beer drinker, but it's always nice to go in here and find something that you're going to like. read more

I was walking around the area because we stayed over here for one night and found this spot and decided to come grab a drink and an appetizer before heading into the city. If I lived here this would definitely be a go to spot for me, everything on the menu sounded so good it was hard to decide what to order because I wanted to try everything. I hung out at the bar and enjoyed an espresso martini and I ended up getting their house chips with ranch dip that was super good! It came with their house chips that had buffalo seasoning on them as well as carrots and celery. It was a really refreshing dip. Both bartenders that were working were super friendly. This restaurant is way bigger than I was expecting it to be but it is for sure a popular spot because it filled up quick! read more

I enjoyed a couple drinks here around 4pm on a Saturday. It was not crowded and I sat at the bar. I walked over from the gym, it's in a good area with other shops and restaurants. They have an extensive drink menu with seasonal cocktails as well as standard beer/wine. I started with the campfire espresso martini and it was delicious- deliciously chilled, nice jolt of espresso and a couple mini marshmallows to top it off. I also had a glass of Riesling, it's nice that they do 6 and 9 oz options. The place was decorated for the holidays which I always love seeing. And staff was pleasant/attentive. Pretty standard pricing but overall a good place to get started or enjoy the main course at. read more

I generally like Tavern on the Square in it's different locations. The menu is interesting with lots of options. I especially like the bowls, like the salmon bowl. There is also a cool vibe like an upscale sports bar. Unfortunately, the food in Littleton was terrible and the service a bit unfriendly. My favorite salmon bowl had overcooked dry salmon, barely any avocado (like only a few tiny cubes) and the sauce was just dumped on it. It was marginally edible. The usually friendly service was not. I tried to get the attention of one waitress from the adjacent table to all ask a simple question. She walked by me twice without stopping. And, on the third time, she told me "I can't help you I'm not your server." The restaurant management needs to come here and up the game. read more

A place to go. That's open late neighborhood that doesn't have much open late. Food is what you would think. Three star beers are cold. Waitresses are sometimes friendly. It's the tavern in the square. It's makes average a profession. read more

This place is so good I have eaten here many times and never had a bad meal or bad service. The food is fresh and so good I always order something different and never disappointed ever, the only thing better is the service the guys and gals work their buys off. Don't miss this place read more

This was just excellent! My husband had the Mesquite chicken bowl which was fantastic. Tasty and varied with lovely crunchy noodles. I had a crispy chicken sandwich, juicy and absolutely delicious, and the rosemary Parm fries which were absolutely phenomenal! I ate until I couldn't eat any more! If we lived closer I would return frequently! Server Cassandra was lovely and even indulged my desire to have my wonderful cocktail just a tad sweeter, making it absolutely perfect! If I could give six stars I would! read more

The restaurant is in a plaza with a bunch of other little shops. There's plenty of parking. They have all the tvs on showing different football games, so it's the perfect spot to watch all the games. Our server was nice and got our order in fast. I got the house sangria and the fish tacos. We also got the tater tot appetizer. The food was all very good! read more

While our server Madeline said she would be taking care of us, she was totally absent. She did take our order, but it was delivered by one of the kitchen staff. We kept looking for her for more beverages but never saw her. Finally we asked another server to find her so we could get our check. Then when she did appear, she said she would bring the check but that was 10 minutes later and the check was not correct. On the food, my wife found her meal was ok but I found mine to be overcooked. The service, or rather the total lack of it, ruined our evening. read more

Unfortunately, my experience today was disappointing. All three ride hostesses were openly speaking negatively about patrons within earshot of guests, which felt very unprofessional. Their attitudes came across as rude and unfriendly, making the atmosphere uncomfortable. Customer-facing staff should treat guests with respect and maintain a positive, welcoming attitude. read more

Came here during the holiday season (2 days after Christmas) and the place was quite packed - I would only recommend coming if you had a reservation or are okay waiting a bit. We got here earlier than our time and had to wait a bit which was fine. They seated us a bit later than our designated time and then took a few minutes to even get us some waters - service definitely felt like it was lacking a bit. The menu had a good selection of apps and entrees which was nice. The starters were a little disappointing honestly - nachos felt very disproportionate for chips to toppings, the crab cake was too small, and the sprouts were a bit too salty. The pasta I got was also a little lacking flavor wise, but portion wise it wasn't too bad - I had enough to save for another meal the next day. Dessert was honestly pretty good, I liked the cookie and thought it was a good size. Food in general was super slow and the water refills were also lacking - honestly, not a great meal. Overall, I had an okay time. I probably wouldn't come back if I had a choice - mediocre food and slow service. The apps definitely were a skip for next time, but the entrees and dessert are okay and I think worth it more than the rest of the menu. read more

Was my second time dining at this chain and went with the crispy chicken sandwich versus the hamburger from my first visit. Both were disappointing choices as each lacked a flavor worth tasting or remembering as distinct. Food was meh both for me and my friends selections. There are other places to consider - Burtons, Yard House, etc. read more

Good place to go for a beer and burger. It's really the only place that's open anywhere near here past 9pm. Theres quite a crowd on Friday & Sat nights but mostly younger people. Great staff, very friendly. Sometimes it seems as though they're too busy which makes getting a refill a challenge. If you're looking for a quick bite to eat or a social place give it a shot! read more

We arrived on a Saturday afternoon for brunch and were seated promptly. It was great to see that there was no wait! They gave us the regular menu and we waited a while until our server came up to us so that we could clarify if they still have brunch. And the answer is yes, they only have brunch until 2:30 pm and had given us the wrong menu. Funny, nobody acknowledged their mistake. We were very hungry to begin with and this delayed our brunch by another 15-20 mins. The stars are only for the food because while it took some time to arrive, everybody enjoyed what they ordered. The fish and chips were both fried well, crispy and the fish was fresh and tender. The tartar sauce and slaw were tasty but had extremely small portions, especially the slaw which was served in an container meant for a dipping sauce. The pancakes with the strawberry rhubarb compote were tasty and not overly sweet. The brunch bowl was also good and a large portion. Overall, the food was great, service was ok, the server didn't seem to happy to see us but hey what can ya do. read more

Delicious, diverse, and WAY bigger than we expected. If you go here, no matter who you are or what you enjoy, they have something for you. The service was not the fastest I've ever experienced, but certainly quick, so don't let those 3 stars turn you away! We sat outside, and even in June, the temperature was great, so I would recommend their outdoor or patio seating. They always have music playing, and all over it was a great experience. I got the Steakhouse burger, which I asked for as a medium rare, and I was not disappointed. What they may lack in positive reviews, they make up for in serving size and delicious flavors. The servers were polite and patient, so I would definitely recommend this place... read more

Many things to say about this 5 star review. BEST MAC AND CHEESE EVERRR! Lovely workers so nice I don't like fried pickles but they made it taste DELICIOUS EVERYTHING WENT WELL!!! read more

Nice, well decorated modern style place. Service was top notch. I only had a chicken Caesar salad with house made dressing which was great. The table also got an order of biscuits which were phenomenal! I'd definitely comeback my next visit. read more

My family and I went here for brunch on Sunday and it was pretty packed! We were seated quickly though which I can appreciate. There's definitely a lot of space to accommodate large parties like ours (8+)! This is definitely more of a casual spot, if you're looking for somewhere to grab a quick bite. I was disappointed to find that a lot of the menu items I found here on Yelp were no longer offered, which is why I took a star off. So i ended up choosing this brunch bowl which was pretty good! I was pleasantly surprised at that. As for the second star being removed, I was expecting that in 2024, there are more turkey/chicken options when it comes to breakfast. I ended up having to get the pork sausage, but having meat alternatives should be the standard. I also got a pancake which isn't pictured that was also good! It was fluffy! The service here was decent, nothing exceptional or bad about it! read more

Enjoy the venue and atmosphere especially when it's an evening with games on across the plethora of screens. Diverse list of beverages to choose from and a streamlined menu. However, the service can be extremely slow... entrees appear before appetizers and the desserts take twice as long as the entrees. Other times everything arrives in order and timely fashion.if you have 2.5 hrs it's worth it, if not ..... explore elsewhere read more

We ordered takeout so I can't speak to any in-person dining experience, but wow! Tavern knows how to properly do takeout at this location. Located in the cutest outdoor plaza of restaurants, hotels, movie theaters, super markets, and stores, there's plenty of parking when you come here. Also as an added bonus, there's lots to do in this plaza if you wanted to walk around before or after your meal! We online ordered 4 meals with some sides and was given an estimated time for when everything should be ready. We arrived a little before our time and not only were there no mess ups with our large order, but when we went to pick it up, it was a super easy handoff. No extra waiting inside or anything. So quick! Now for the food: I ordered their Mac and cheese and it came in massive platter!!! I was expecting the usual takeout portion... portions being enough for one serving of it and then maybe some leftover. Here, it was like 3 or 4 meals worth from my one mac and cheese order! It was creamy, cheesy, delicious and topped off with a breadcrumb layer that added a slight crunch to every bite. Great experience doing takeout here and highly recommend the Mac and cheese! read more

We were a large party, so two tables were pulled together, but the tables were not the same height. Odd. As they were originally set up one was at such an angle I would have been worried about drinks tipping over. It's a little thing, but makes me wonder who set that up and didn't see an issue. Service was slow, but the huevo rancheros nachos were fantastic. I also had the 3 spice Mary, which I didn't find spicy. read more

The food was good, but the noise level was insane. There were times when the decibels went over 100. My husband and I went home with a headache. read more

Restaurant was super busy. Ordered to go. They forgot to call it out when it was ready so it sat for a bit before we finally got it. Food was good. Fried pickles 5/5. The crispy coating was good and didn't taste like glue. Nashville Hot was HOT 4/5 needed a side of ranch but because we got to go couldn't ask for after. Fries were fries. Nothing to note. Chicken tenders were 4.5/5. Lots of tenders were a perfect meal. Loved the gluten free options and lack of stress about preparation. read more

Server was ok, but not super friendly. I got chicken tenders breaded with cornflakes and they were lukewarm and soggy. They did have good flavor. My friend got the tater tots and the woman who brought his food didn't realize that they rolled and about half of them landed on his lap. They replaced them quickly with more room temp tater tots. The food was served quickly because it was a weeknight around 8pm and not too busy. Won't return here, but I'm open to checking out other locations. read more

I don't suggest the salmon bowl. It was fishy, probably frozen and inedible. Also smothered in an overly sweet sauce. Just terrible. To be fair I've had this bowl at a different location and it was good so beware. Didn't send it back because we were going to a movie and not enough time, and also it's embarrassing. My friends vegetarian burger was good. Service was good. Cute place inside. Left hungry and disappointed. read more

Nice place to have a craft beer and a meal. The beer selection on tap was exceptional. The food selections was workable. This place can handle large parties. Tip: don't try to watch a game here if a storm is coming. I did, and it seems we lost the satellite connection to the Celtics game as the game went into overtime. read more

Average food, average service! I have been to this chain several times, but never enjoyed the experience. The menu is not appealing, pretty standard. They do have several twists to a standard menu, like the burger options. Burger is something that shouldn't never go wrong. But they manage to screw it. If someone don't mention how well they want the burger cooked, their can be two meanings - 1. Assumption that they want it medium. 2. They expect you will ask them how well they want it to be cooked. But here they have their own third option - assume that they want it well done! I don't know how and why they would do this. Anyway.. hence, 3 stars. Would go back only if I am in the area and want to have a drink. read more

We decided to give this place a try as my little one wanted to get some ice cream after his swim class nearby. First off, we love our waitress Reva- she is so wonderful! She checked in on us, made sure that we had everything we needed- and if the food was delayed she made sure that we were aware- but the food all came out rather quickly. The food was great! I got the fish tacos, my husband got a juicy cheeseburger and my little one obviously got ice cream and his Mac and cheese. We love the ambiance, the service was amazing and the setting was open and we weren't too close to others that we felt cramped. Overall, I'd come back if I have a craving for traditional American food. read more

While attending a lacrosse tournament in Devens, we decided to try this restaurant. We did a horrible job planning the number of people that might be joining us. The hostess was so incredibly patient with us. She let us know that we would not be able to sit together and we would have separate waitresses which of course make sense (there were over 20 of us). I was absolutely amazed with the service. The food was delicious l! The people were delightful! We will be back next year (but will plan ahead and make an appropriate reservation in advance). :) read more

After dining in with a girlfriend, I will never be returning. This review has nothing to do with the food which was delicious. It has everything to do with the weight staff, which is unbelievably undesirable. I normally don't do reviews so this is going out of my way to do so. I'll take a little blame as far as moving from a middle table to a booth. The waitress immediately was annoyed and asked us if we had been seated. I had explained that the table that we were sat at that we didn't feel comfortable, so we switched to this booth and we hoped it wasn't a problem. She proceeded to school us and tell us that that section was closing. (which people were sat after us so it wasn't closed ). We were very nice to her. There was no reason to then attack us for the rest of the night. When we had asked for a check because she had never come. We asked of the girls to check us out. (Handed another waiter, our credit card) they brought it to our waiter. (shatarra). She brought it back and slammed it on the table with my credit card and walked off. We had no way of signing our check! So at this point I went to the front desk. I saw our waitress then run behind reception desk, to get the scoop on what I was doing and ran into the kitchen to speak to the manager before the manager came out. I was so upset I was shaking. I have never had such bullying action in all my life. My suggestion to Melissa, the manager would be to separate these packs of young women that clearly have nothing else to do but to bully their clientele. I will never be returning. I've never felt so disrespected!!! read more

Love this location! The food was great as always & Kathleen was a pleasure to have as our server!! Will definitely be back.

We had the best appetizer ever. Seriously. I've eaten all around the country, and the broccoli appetizer was amazing! The flavor was perfect. I also got a squash and farro salad. It was very good, but I would have liked to taste the squash a little more. There was a lot of feta cheese, which was not bad, but it was a little too much for me. The service was excellent here. We made a reservation for a large party, and I don't think we waited 5 minutes to be seated. My family has been here multiple times, and I'm sure they'll continue to visit this place. Unfortunately, I don't live in the area, and we don't have any in our neck of the woods. read more

Came here with my coworkers on a work trip. This place was close to the hotel so we decided to check it out. We got seated right away and the staff was all very friendly. They had sport games on the TV which was nice. I ordered the pickle chips for the table and they were alright, it wasn't as crispy as I thought and overly battered. I ordered the steak and mashed potatoes. The steak was nothing crazy and slightly over cooked when I asked for it medium. Besides that the mashed potatoes were actually so good. The only thing that was worth trying. This spot is good if you're just looking for drinks and a place to watch the game, the food is not the best. read more
