Stumbled upon this food hall while driving back to my hotel. Amazing atmosphere although it would be less enticing in winter. Yummy food options from three food vendors along with a pour as you go beer with over 20 varieties.

Such a great addition to the greater Boston area.They have two locations, this one and another one in Waltham, MA.The patios are very pleasant to hang out, and the inside fun as well.Very dog/family-friendly which is always a nice plus in the area.They have multiple businesses on site. I *think* the bar/craft beer system is their system, and then there are restaurants to compliment the space.One gets a card with the bar tender and can then pour their own craft beer by the ounce (priced hy the ounce). This is the best way to try different things and make youre own flifht of craft beers type of thing. And they do have an awesome selection, somethibg for every taste really.Then one can order food at one of the restaurants using a QR code and online system. Very efficient. We tried the sous-viderie which was really really good.Will definitely come back.

This review is for Project X, the pizza bar at Revolution Hall. I am very upset that they introduced a vegan pizza several weeks ago called "Wally's Friend" with vegan cheese and jack fruit. It was so good that I ordered it again. I go it, took several bites before I realized that what was jack fruit the first time I ordered it, had bee replaced by pork. If you're going to do this, you should change the name of the pizza. This is a gawd damn awful way to trick vegans into eating crap.

This is a review about the food... I ordered a burger via the app, in the notes i wrote well done please! This what I got.... No one should be eating meat this raw unless you want to have intestinal issues for about a month. This absolutely disgusting.

Such a great experience! Had my husbands Air Force retirement party here and the food and drinks were so good! The staff was very friendly! They have an awesome outdoor setup with corn hole! The vibe here is super chill. Can't wait to come back here to eat and drink again!

Great vive and family place. The kids have pin pong and corn hole. Excellent beers, decent wines and mixed drinks. Great location right by the bike path. Live music on Saturdays. My family and i love this place and the vice. Only 4 stars because the food just sucks. Fast food, way to greasy, and lacks taste... We generally don't eat there, but the beers and drinks are great, the place is nice and so are the staff and patrons... will return many times...

fun and creative indoor outdoor place with good food and a horribly complex and needlessly high barrier to newcomers who aren't hip to the system So, been here three times and although *I* understand how it works, I spend my visits grumbling that I bet there's a sizable portion of the population for whom the system is just all too tricky to deal with: I hope the owner puts up signage, or leaflets, or SOMETHING to explain to first-timers how to order; and also that they consider finding a way for folks who don't have up-to-date smartphone skills to eat at this place. (E.g., The elderly?) Folks are quick to tell me that the lack of wait staff is to save $, but I'm sure there is a cute or tongue in cheek way to overcommunicate a few useful things: where to sit; that there are three restaurants; that there is a bar; that sodas are purchased from a restaurant; that all communications happen through a phone; etc etc etc. The food is good. The experience is fun for folks my age, but I can't imagine anyone with poor eyesight or a lack of experience pointing their phones at things would ever be able to go here unless relatives help them.

Stupid f*g idea for a place. You can't touch the beer until you do some data entry, no one is there to help you,, and you never know the price of the beer until you start pouring. Whoever invented this concept is a total j*** off. Not coming back.

So much trash. Food (burger / Mac & cheese) was fine but served in cardboard boxes and plastic top. Plastic fork/spoon /knives. I was told the cardboard is compostable but it filled the trash bins. Compostable if I take it home and arrange to compost cardboard and I recycle the plastic. Beer was a bit expensive but served in actual glasses (thank you v much). Beer selection was good but not so local. Would like to see local breweries. Care too much about the environment to return.

Great Food. Great Drinks. Great Time. This a, yes, great place to go for food and beer lovers. The staff is friendly and the self pour beer machines are very cool.
Enjoyed a great date after a workout on the minuteman trail. There is a great selection of craft beers. My husband and and I liked being able to self-serve our craft beers. We also ordered jalapeño lime pretzel bites, roasted Brussel sprouts and the buffalo chicken pizza. Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. We played ping pong and corn hole. Very fun afternoon!!!!

I love love love food halls, but some of the food options here are trying waaaay too hard, even if everyone here in upscale Lexington is indeed a foodie. Take the offerings from Vessel, which at first glance appealed to me, especially the avocado falafel bowl. It turned out to be a kaleidoscope of many, many different flavors and textures, so much so as to be overwhelming. Some ingredients include a "Super Grain Blend of Turmeric and Ashwagandha Infused Organic Sorghum" and a "House Made Bio-Dynamic Garlic Turmeric Miso Sauce and Apple Cider Vinaigrette (Infused with Dragon Fruit / Sriracha Drizzle)." Sound like too much - or even smarmy - to you? Thought so. Even with an educated, wealthy, sophisticated audience, I would bet that keeping things nice and simple for people to understand (look at their loud, buzzword-laden website and you'd be challenged to realize that this a food hall with three choices) would be a better way to go. As for the bowl itself, it was mostly filling, except it was far too busy in terms of flavors and textures. There was one ingredient - I thought it was onions, but perhaps it was the slaw or cabbage - that I found so tart, vinegary, and overflavored that I had to pick every red piece out by hand and toss it aside in order to eat the rest of the bowl comfortably. Oh well. I should have gone for their other pretentiously named (yet more popular) options, whether Sousviderie (burgers, chicken, tacos), or Project X (wings, pizze) - the latter of which is group and food-hall friendly. Talking about which, the space is conducive to families and large gatherings, with communal benches, some kid-friendly activities if I remember correctly, and sports screens at the center. It otherwise looks like a suburban office building or warehouse store for the outside. So I'll be generous with a 4-star rating.

What a great concept! I really wish they would open up another location further east so I can come every weekend! This place is spacious with lots of comfy seats, couches, outdoor seating as well as pingpong table, shuffleboard, cornhole etc. To order beer, you can get a card from the bar and then simply tap the card at the self serving tap to get your own pour. Then you just bring your card to the bar and pay for however much you drank. They also have two food stations. The food looked good but we already ate so didn't try any. Will definitely stop by if we are in the area again.

Went here for lunch. Pretty cool venue with a ton of outdoor seating. The menus are pretty unique with a bunch of different items to choose from. I went with the Avocado Falafel Bowl and added some chicken. It came with a wide variety of greens, grains, and dressing. A ton of different l flavors packed into one bowl. Other items on the menu looked good, but I wanted something lighter for lunch. The prices are a little high for their larger and more extensive dishes but I wouldn't say too unreasonable. Ordering was a little weird. You do it on your phone. For some reason it wouldn't let me put in my credit card, but the bartender was very kind to put in my order for me. Looking forward to going back so I can try one of their heavier dishes.

Venue looks, food looks fun. However, I went in here with a whiny toddler - had no idea how to order or pay for food - no one who works there looked at us or offered a suggestion. There were drink fountains all over the place - are they part of the various kitchens?. There is a guy pulling pints in the middle - no eye contact. Any way - People are busy - Restaurants are struggling - don't make life more difficult for your customers - just put up a sign - stating - this is how to order - or hire a floor manager. Simple We left without any food - spent $84 on terrible food down the street.
