My office ordered a Thanksgiving spread this week and we were blown away by how delicious it was (we all agreed it was better than other home-made Thanksgiving dinners we've eaten). It included all the traditional fixings and options for dessert. Bill who catered was kind and helpful and so friendly. Overall, great experience. If catering was THAT good, I have to stop by the restaurant now.

Went for dinner recently & everything was delicious!!! Bill & Jannette were fantastic! Two of us had the veal, one had the seafood medley & I had the chicken salad wrap. We also got the tuna ahi appetizer & a complimentary amuse-bouche. We can’t wait to go back! If you haven’t been there yet, you’re missing out. Also BYOB which is great 🍻🍷

Love this little cafe! Food is always amazing. Atmosphere too, and coffee is the best! Say ‘Hi’ to Jeanette and Bill, the owners, when you’re there. Love this place!

The food that Bill and his crew are able to create in their very small kitchen is terrific! Our group of 10 all enjoyed our dinners and conversation with the crew. I didn't give 5 stars for atmosphere because the venue is not extravagant with decorations. It is simply decorated which is ok with us. They did have nice tablecloths and candles on the tables for the dinner crowd! It is a special find for food and wine lovers.

If you're looking for something tasty and filling at a low cost, Theatre Cafe is a great little place to grab a home-cooked meal away from home. A cozy cafe right next to the Hanover Theater, the Theatre Cafe serves breakfast/lunch/dinner, and has a variety of specials daily. It's a small place, with warm, cozy vibes and a very friendly group of folks working there. Dining in is an option (there is very limited seating but plenty of room to relax at your table), along with takeout and limited delivery. My favorite meal there has been the Chicken Cordon Bleu sandwich on herb bread, but their fish & chips, and their croquettes with string beans are delicious as well. One of the tastiest lunches in Worcester.

From the welcome, to the presentation, to the atmosphere to the final course, I can't possibly tell you how amazing this dinner was. If you're looking for an enjoyable evening produced by a couple who truly loves what they do, this is the place. If I could give them 10 stars I would!

I would put 6 stars if it were an option. The food, the music, the beautiful smells flowing through the restaurant... words can not describe how amazing this place is. Definitely recommend. 11 out of 10.

The food is phenomenal. I get something new off the specials menu that they post on facebook fairly often and have never been disappointed. Top notch ingredients, flavors, and execution. I highly recommend.
