If you could eat Italian, Portuguese and Irish fare only? It's the place for you. Burgundian is an oasis of fest beer, proper sausages and fit for the whole family. Everything from expert coffee bar to cocktails and beer are available with a menu that has something for every time of day. When the air is crisp there is the beer garden with picnic style tables like you might find in Munich. The service is also very European in that you have to que up to order and they then bring it to you at your seat. The staff is young and friendly. It's a laid back vibe without being off the Teutonic theme. Parking lot has room for 20 cars right across the street and there is also street parking. If you've never been here? Give it a try.

They had a few n/a choices for beer, I had the lemon drop cocktail (Thursday special $8 cocktails well liquor). Ordered buffalo egg rolls, unfortunately they were very dry, no buffalo flavor.

I was trying to decide between the brick chicken and the steak tips. I had the steak tips there before and they were excellent! The bartender suggested since I had them before to try the chicken. Great choice- it was so flavorful and moist! It came with asparagus and choice of starch. I picked roasted potatoes. Not realizing it was sweet potatoes- I think it had a sweet liquid maybe maple syrup? Little too sweet for me but tasty, The bartender was serving on the floor as well as the bar because their server had gone back to Ireland the day before - but she managed it well, as the floor and the bar was filling up! There are tables that over looks water if you are so inclined, nice music playing in the background. We will be back!!

We got 2 açaí bowl, a lemonade, a frozen coffee, and a sandwich and paid over $70. This is a bit steep and as a city girl the prices in Boston even isn't this high. Everything was good, not the best I've had, but not terrible but just nothing extraordinary to pay that price. We saw a fly inside the bakery refrigerator and told the staff and was told that unfortunately their sliding door aren't the greatest to the flies get in ? Yikes I think for this price they should probably make the drinks and sandwiches something to truly remember but maybe we were paying for the ambiance? I would come back for maybe just a refresher next time while we shop and enjoy the nursery but not for lunch. I do think the nursery is worth while but the stars are specifically for the cafe.

The prices are fair and their reward program rocks....I get so many offers that are so good that make me go back to the restaurant often for a meal. This last time I got my favorite nachos. No sour cream, no guac, no chicken. Just some nice oven baked chips with delicious vegetable toppings. The plate was huge and everything tasted fresh and not "from a can". Great service, great food.

My primary goal (pun intended) was to watch a world cup game while eating some good food and I got…read morejust that. I dragged my friend along with me. There were a couple empty seats at the bar, some of which seemed suspiciously untouched and we soon realized why; the AC was blasting overheard and although it felt nice in the beginning since it was HOT outside, after 10 minutes it felt frigid. We stayed there anyways since there was a huge TV right in front of us. I wasn't sure what to order, but the chicken and burrata sandwich sounded really good, mostly because of the sweet, salty, and creamy contrast. I ended up ordering it and upgraded my fries to parmesan fries. My friend ordered a burger with sweet potato fries. After about 15 minutes, the food came out. I knew the chicken would be grilled since I asked before ordering so my expectations were low, but it was surprisingly still moist, did taste grilled, but lacked some seasoning. I did not open the sandwich to check how much burrata there was, but adding some more would not have hurt. The fig jam was definitely the star of the show. It overpowered some of the other flavors, but I didn't mind. The caramelized onions might've also contributed to the sweetness; they were soft and good. I was glad they did not add too much arugula since it can get bitter. The ciabatta was a good choice of bread for this sandwich, and it came lightly toasted. I did not taste much of the garlic. The fries were good. They were like regular fries, but with some parmesan cheese sprinkled on top and a parmesan dipping sauce. I also ordered some secret sauce for my fries because I went down a Reddit rabbit hole and was compelled to try it. I was not impressed and it indeed tasted a lot like ketchup and mayo, with maybe a couple other things. We stayed for the full match including overtime. Thankfully it wasn't busy enough where I felt they would kick us out for taking up chairs for too long. Our waitress was great.

Street parking was available right out front. Our waitress was patient about checking dish options for my dairy allergy. Noise level inside was great for a date-not too loud, not too quiet. Good vibes amongst other patrons and staff. Service was friendly and attentive, and she seemed fine with us lingering over our coffees in lieu of dessert. (No dairy-free option.) I'd come back to Attleboro just for this spot.
