“I saw some good reviews online, so my wife and I decided to give it a try. Wow! I could not believe how good the food was. They actually hand battered their chicken fingers for my chicken finger sub. It was amazing! My wife got the cheese steak and it was one of the best she has had in a long time.Although this place is old, it is very clean. There was one woman working both the sub shop and the convenience store, but she had no problems and was a pleasure to talk to.This place has a little of everything. Ice cream, convenience store, and pizza and sub shop.I will definitely be going back to try the pizza.”
“I wish Google would update its information. It is takeout only now, We drove a distance to discover that, but were shooed away when we arrived. The food was always great, but after a long drive, we didn't want to eat it in the car.”
“I recently moved to Gardner and do not know the area very well. After trying several other Chinese restaurants in the area with MUCH dissatisfaction, I was beginning to think that there just aren’t any good Chinese restaurants in this area. The food was just so basic and bland. After giving in to a craving for Chinese food, I tried yet another, however, the outcome was very different! Last night, I ordered for delivery, everything was right! Delivery person had an amazing attitude and was super pleasant, food was everything I was wanting! This place clearly takes pride in the food they serve, there were flavors and spices (not spicy) that were unexpected yet absolutely delicious! I will absolutely be returning to this one! ?”
“Speedy and fast delivery, they almost never make mistakes, and their food is great. We have a few autistic people in our family who are really picky about pizza who love brothers because the texture and tastes are "just right." One of the prides of Ashburnham as a whole.”
“this is the place!! don't even bother going to brothers pizza across the street over priced and not nearly as good! been going to village pizza for many years now! amazing Greek style! put the pizza in your mouth!Vegetarian options: falafel pizza is incredible !!!Parking: convenient parking right at store front”
“Went there today about 4 the girl at the window was the sweetest I have ever met she noticed I was very upset and did sometimes so sweet to try and make me feel better I didn’t have the courage to tell her the truth but it made my day as it was the only good thing that happened during that time and it ment so much to me…. I wish I knew her name to give her proper credit but please management let her know thank you”
“This space has lots of seating for a quiet time or a chat with friends. Lots of delicious, creative choices for pastries or quiche ! Lovely chai and tons of coffee flavor options. It even has a separate kids area! ”
“A nice little breakfast place not far from the John Fitch. While seating inside is a little limited, the food is great and the staff are friendly. Last time I went, they were cash only - they do have an ATM, but just be ”
“Great authentic Mediterranean food! Some of the best tzatziki I've ever had which is made in-house! Small place that is meant for takeout but there's a few spots to eat inside. There's parking right in front of the building. Staff was friendly and quick to prepare our dishes.”
“Great hotdogs, the buns are toasted to perfection every time and can't forget about the shakes! Yikes they are amazing! I stop in Everytime I pass thru town!”
“Nice place, very friendly and good selection on the menu. I ordered the Salmon terriyaki lunch special Bento Box. Too much sauce on the salmon for my taste. I enjoyed all of the different tastes offered. Next time I'll get one of the soups or Bim Bam Bap. They are open on Mondays when a lot of other local places are closed.”
“I absolutely love this place. I don’t know what they do to make their coffee taste so good but it’s the best I’ve ever had! The food is amazing too! Great breakfast sandwiches and flavored cream cheeses on the bagels!”
“So relaxing, sitting out in the garden, and grabbing lunch. Just beautiful atmosphere. I've done take out many times because food is really good, a bit more on price than your average sandwich restaurant. They do boost authentic ingredients, so maybe the reason. The owner and staff are very pleasant. Only thing I'd say about my first dining experience was after waiting for the food, I was disappointed with the soups temperature, too cold and the sandwich was way too cold as if it just got from the fridge. I'd go back for sure because their takeout has never been disappointed. Great cookies, too!”
“Small little shop, employees are very sweet and the desserts are even sweeter!!! Everything about this place is wonderful and definitely needs more recognition for what it’s worth. So good. Love the macarons.”
“I don’t write a lot of reviews but the guy in there made my pie in under 15 minutes and his hospitality is amazing a very nice person and really goes out his way to take care of you. And the pizza is a 10/10 best option in Fitchburg area.”
“The food at this diner will not disappoint. Family owned and run, the chefs are great, the wait staff are friendly and food is incredible. Not a bad thing on the menu! Eggs Blackstone is my go ”
“This place was absolutely wonderful. Not only was the food great, but the service was phenomenal.Several friends and I came into the place and the cashier was very helpful during our lengthy decision process. We are new to the area and he said that the chicken and lamb shawarma was what we should get. It did not disappoint.A few minutes after ordering the food was already finished. Now, usually, fast cooking times are not connect with excellent quality food, but this place is an exception. The shawarma was a heavenly blend of textures and flavors. And I wish I had another bowl right now.My only criticism is that the booths were a little small for seating.Next time I go out to eat, this place will be the top of my list.”
“Down homey feeling place. Great food and large servings. The place was packed and they got everything out to us super quick. Prices were also less than expected these days.”
“A wonderful gem. Stumbled upon looking for a breakfast restaurant. Ended up enjoying a peaceful and private breakfast looking over the falls. Highly recommend. The fresh passion fruit juice was amazing!!”
“Had friends visiting from out of town today so we went in for lunch. All of our meals were so delicious.... we are still raving about the visit. Love the layout and decor of the restaurant, staff was so friendly and welcoming...even entertaining our corny sense of humor :) So glad to have such a wonderful establishment in town and can't wait to return.”
“Enjoyed the pool table and spirits, great bartender!Food & drinks: Didn't you devise the hotel itself outside of the establishment for spirits? We had a great time.”
“Nice little dinner with friendly service and good home-cooked meals. Ordered the Tuna Melt on Sourdough with fries. Service was fast and the sandwich was tasty. If you’re looking for a good and quick meal, nothing truly fancy here but you can’t go wrong here … very friendly courtesy service.”
“My husband and I recently attended his FHS 1958 CLASS REUNION. Everything from beginning to end was handled with perfection, smiles, and friendless. Thank you!!!”
“very good food, very tasty, clean place, everything very good! except the people who answer the phone, the boy who is too lazy to answer and talk to people and the woman also answers the phone very badly, very disrespectful.”
“Lovely, cozy, and historically relevant - The Boulder shines through past a sea of mere pebbles in the local scene. With a great selection of liquids both hard and soft, you're sure to find something that wets your whistle. Did I mention the live music? Give it a go! You're sure to find a welcoming crowd and friendly staff.”
“Everyone is friendly. Nice neighborhood bar. Love to relax there, where everyone is respectful and everyone know's your name. It's West Fitchburg version of Cheers!!!!!!”
“Only taking 1 star off food because the pickle breader seemed just a bit bland for our tastes, and my cheeseburger came without cheese. It was still delicious and well cooked even without the cheese, and I had some pre-sliced at home to save the day! The calamari was amazing, I have never had anything other than just rings - really appreciated the included small squid for a new experience. The fried pickles were on point (slightly bland breader, but very crispy and awesome with ranch), and the chicken used for their chicken tenders seemed to be fresh, high quality, and perfectly cooked. Overall, very positive experience and we look forward to coming back soon :)”
“My wife and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE COMING HERE! We live 2 hours away and we make it an annual destination for breakfast or lunch when we're on our way to Jaffrey to visit a friend of ours. We've been to many diners over the years and the Hometown Diner doesn't disappoint! The staff was very friendly and personable as we entered. It was lunch time and all the booths in the front of the diner were taken but we were immediately offered seats at the counter or a table in a back room .of the diner. We chose the back room. I ordered the turkey dinner from the menu. My wife had an urge for a bacon,lettuce, and tomato sandwich which wasn't on the menu. Our waitress came to take our order and when asked about the possibility of getting a BLT for my wife, she absolutely had no problem in honoring my wife's request! Despite the busy lunch hour, our food was brought to our table within 10-15 minutes which was OUTSTANDING! My turkey dinner was good and very satisfying! My wife enjoyed her BLT as well as the French fries that came with it. We truly enjoyed our "diner" experience... the great staff, the great diner atmosphere and the food! Our waitress went above and beyond in making us feel welcomed and happy with our service and our meals! Although we visit once a year, we truly enjoy this gem of a diner and we're looking forward to our visit next year!”
“One of my favorite places. Must have thai iced tea. All of the noodle dishes are great. The new banana ice cream is amazing, taste like banana bread but in ice cream form.”
“I'm happy this place is tucked away, because it's such a gem and I don't want it to get any busier than it already is! Great food selection, awesome beers on tap, and there is always something going on weekly, like trivia and music. This place is a weekly spot for us and I highly recommend it!Parking: There's a big lot to park in, and street parking if needed.”
