Andréa was absolutely incredible. She was literally running the whole restaurant, under a ton of stress, dealing with customers, and was a total badass. I forgot our waiters name but he was one of few people working. He was awesome as well. Total respect to both of them for keeping and projecting positive vibes during COVID. Food was bomb as always. Yall make good drinks. Yall aren't overpriced and that sits pretty damn good with me. Sorry for all the spaces it won't let me post until I write a freaking book apparently. Anyhow, I just wanted to share a nice thing because people deserve to smile (: read more

Nasty employees here. Wife got called rude by an employee for wanting to pay and get away from a screaming baby. They sat this party right next to her table in an EMPTY restaurant. The child screamed the whole time. Nobody wants to hear that while the parents do nothing to calm the child. They are the rude ones, as is the employee. read more

What a ripoff this place is. Used to be a great family oriented place. Now they're just overpriced for mediocre pub food, with a "service fee" for takeout. Feel bad for their host/hostess that would be making much more with tips if they didnt charge that fee. No one's going to add a tip after seeing the additional "service fee"....you're prices are outrageous as is. Good luck read more

This is one of the most racist environments. Where do I begin, my family and I went out for my sons birthday right when we walked in the was a customer who was clearly not happy, she was stating how they had to wait to be seated because no one at host stand and how the server they had was so rude and unprofessional, wait! It gets better when we looked there was a gentleman standing laughing at her which later we came to find out that was her server who sadly became ours which became a nightmare I could not even enjoy my day with my son and family because this excuse me but piece of trash. We never got offered any water, menu, bread, or proper greeting and when we looked around and seen the attention other tables were getting and those coming in and being seated appose to how we were was unbelievable. We should have got up and left,but my kids really liked their food. I in the other hand was at a breaking point because he just kept walking by us and not acknowledging us and when it came time that we asked for the cake I asked it for it and he smirked and said " I told them to bring it out that's not my job I'm not allowed to play with fire so just wait" that was the last straw and I gave him a piece of my mind, but basically letting him know that I would crush him, but I didn't want my family and kids to suffer because I was at that point ready to go to jail in this racist environment. I know people always turn things into racism or looking for a free meal, but people who know me know I have caucasian Neices and nephews and all types of mixed nationality. Now I still leave a tip just to show him where better than that if that what he was thinking, so now we proceed to the gaming area and the manager that we seen going to every table but ours goes and pulls the employee from back there, okay no biggie until he puts the closed sign up and doesn't state anything like how are we supposed to cash in our stuff, so we kept playing than when we were done we went to go ask about it and he comes back there with a attitude and told them what do they want? I clearly told him I don't like his attitude or tone than he says it's been a long day wtf does that have to do with us, no apology or anything absolutely worse experience ever. Okay so we came home and waited a couple days but just couldn't brush it off so my fiancée calls and speak to a manager who was extremely apologetic and nice and was willing to give us four free meals and games, but no Ty we were all set with that establishment and part of town, so she decided to reimburse us for our whole tab plus our gratuity which was still15% which was very nice of her, but honestly I'm the only person of color who's experienced this type of behavior from this place or town I know New Bedford high ranked police officers that say the same. Sorry to say racism still exist. I gave 1 star because of the nice manager lady. If your a person of color or race be careful. read more

Food was excellent, but the food took forever. Only 2 people. 1 fried dish and 1 salad with protein ‍

It's so good like I don't like places like this but it really good the games are so fun and are new and old style games

Why are the lights so bright??? Atmosphere would be so much more inviting if you would just dim the lights. Feels like you're walking into a bright cafeteria. My bf & I send a couple friends went in to get drinks/apps at the bar Saturday evening around 9. We turned around and left. read more

Cool environment. Good service. Food was decent but lacking a little for the price. Not rushing to come back for the food but I think the kids would like it. read more

Our first choice was closed for vacation and Yelp suggested we try Barrett's instead. We hadn't been here in years and it was a meh experience, but we were willing to give it another shot. They've expanded since we were last here and now have a game room attached and plenty of tables along with a large bar. Service was prompt and friendly. They do have a specialty cocktail list but it needed to be updated. In my opinion after Christmas my options should not include a pumpkin martini and a caramel apple martini. I did order the caramel apple martini and it wasn't bad. We started with the boneless buffalo wings. They weren't the best I've ever had, but they were OK. I had the Ale House pizza. It was loaded with toppings. The crust was a bit on the soggy side though and got worse the longer it sat. The leftovers the next day were actually better after I crisped them up in the oven. I'd return, but it wouldn't be my first choice. read more

I don't recommend the fajita tacos. They were cold, seasoning was awful and too much. The seasoning was like you would find on seasoned fries. The most horrible attempt at tacos. It came with fries which is strange. I literally ate my meal just because I paid for it. Super disappointed. read more

After flying into Boston we needed to drive south to our accommodations. While driving we found ourselves STARVING and kind of in the middle of nowhere. There weren't really all that many options to choose from and we happened upon Barrett's Alehouse. Located in strip mall, when we entered we could immediately tell it was a local favorite. With wall-to-wall flat-screen TVs, full bar, lounge and regular dining area, and game room to keep the kids busy, there was something for everyone. It was not some hole in the wall, but a classy little joint. Although they have a HUGE menu as a vegan I was limited to a pizza sans cheese. However, the ambiance and service made it more than worth the experience. Side note: For non-vegans my husband highly recommends their killer apple crisp. read more

The pizza was mostly cheese, the burger was severely dry, & everything came to the table cold. A waste of money for sure.

Great neighborhood spot. I was visiting the area from out of state and found it by accident (everything in Fall River closes by 9pm on a weeknight) so lucky for me they were open later... Food was good... Andrea and Jen behind the bar very nice and attentive... chatted up some of the locals who seem to go there often.. I can see why. Nice atmosphere... nice people... good experience! read more

I went here for dinner for the first time tonight with my fiancé. We were seated right away, which is surprising for a Friday night. We were asked if we wanted to sit in the dinning room (which was pretty large) or the bar area. We opted for the dinning room, since there were plenty of booths open. However, we were seated right in the Karaoke area. Not something I realized they did nor would it have been my choice to sit. We didn't complain, but it was definitely tough hearing one another talk. The same one guy sang 90% of the songs. And the other was another gentleman. So it's obvious it's not a popular thing here. If I ever come here again, I'd personally choose to sit in another area. The waitress even had a hard time hearing us. I ordered Zucchini Fries for an appetizer and a Veggie Burger for my meal. Both weren't bad, they tasted good and no real complaints. I ordered a Sam Adams Porch Rocker for a drink, but the waitress came back twice because she had no idea what I was talking about. I literally had to point it out to her on the menu and she brought it to the bartender to order it. Which seemed a bit odd to me. My fiancé ordered sliders for an app and a stir fry for dinner, suggested by the waitress. He liked the sliders but not the stir fry. He just said it was okay. He ordered 2 margaritas during dinner. He ended up knocking the second one over by mistake, because the glass was wet so it slipped out of his hands. The waitress never offered to comp him and he had to pay the $20! For them. Which is a bit overpriced if you ask me. Our apps came out fairly fast, but our food took a long time. It was probably 30 minutes from the time we finished eating our apps to the time the meals actually came. The restaurant wasn't that busy and a family of 4 who came in while we were eating our apps, ate and left by the time our food came. Which is a little aggravating. We ordered water at the end of our meal, and it was clearly tap water. Personally, Fall River tap water tastes disgusting. So, I didn't really drink it. There is a game room, which might be fun for families with kids or adults. I may or may not come back here. It's close to where I live, so if I'm ever passing by, maybe. Overall, it was an okay experience. The prices were a bit overpriced for the quality of food and drink and it was a bit loud. read more

Fun atmosphere. I wish they had more vegetarian options, but I'm glad they have a veggie burger. Great place for a group and kids.

Overpriced for what you're getting. Not sure if it's the method of preparedness or what, but some of the food looks like it comes straight out of a can. For example, the appetizer nachos with the chili on top seemed like it was Hormel chili heated up and spooned on there. And you're paying a decent price for that dish to boot. I wouldn't waste money on any of the entrees or appetizers. The pizza and their sandwiches are priced well and have good taste making it more of a lunch spot. read more

Barrett's is our family dinner night go to! My stepson loves this place! It's a great family place with good food, good service, and a great arcade to have some fun after dinner. I've tried a lot of different things in the menu but what I loved (which sadly is no longer in the menu!!) was the calamari plate!! It was so good! My husband and stepson love the rattlesnake pizza. My husband also loves the sampler plate (can't remember the name now) but I would definitely recommend this place! They have specials often and we love hanging out at the arcade afterwards! read more

My family went for dinner on a Thursday night wasn't busy in there at all service was very underwhelming ordered a app and 10 min later put in our order half way through the app food brought to table that's fine waiter only came over once to ask how everything was when we hadn't touched our meal waiter never came back to ask how it was going or to offer refills he gave everyone around us there checks as we waited 20 minutes for the check after asking for it then another 20 to pay very disappointed read more

Food has been a decline for years now. There was a time me and my girlfriend would pop in as regulars to enjoy their many items on the menu and sip on a cold drink. They've weeded out the menu and made it smaller. And what's sadly left is bland over priced food. The only things they still make well, are the pizza and calzones. I still enjoy that. And their bar is still worth it to pop in, digress and watch a sports game. Other than that, not what they were. 3 stars because the booze, TVs and pizza keep me coming in read more

Service was ok. Food was good but not amazing. I had a great experience with their buffalo dip years back but must have changed their recipe read more

Barrett's Ale House - American Near Me - Fall River, Massachusetts

Our visit to Barrett's Alehouse was our first. We were a party of 6 adults and a 3 1/2 yr. old. We arrived at a busy hour and told the wait would be 20-25 minutes. During this time frame, we observed several parties of 6 get seated before us. After 45 minutes. I approached the desk and asked to be seated since I saw an empty table fit for our party size. I was told we couldn't be seated because the kitchen was backed up. I explained my grandson wasn't able to sit still in the foyer area any longer. The manager came out and gave approval for us to be seated. We appreciated his gesture. We were seated in the very back of the alehouse directly across from the kitchen. The room was very large, voices echoed, and there were other large parties also seated back there. The kitchen, when the doors opened, was very loud. The noise from the kitchen was not a problem for us at all. We were just happy to be seated and able to begin ordering. BTW, it was 7:30 by the time we placed our appetizer order. Half way through our meal, the manager came over to our table and said, I know you're having fun but can you keep it down. You can be heard all the way in the kitchen. Really!!!??? Our bar tab was over $100. By the time our table bill was paid, it was over $200. This was a birthday celebration. We spent over $300 in this establishment and the manager had the audacity to tell us to quiet down. Our table was long. The only way to speak to the person at the opposite end was to speak loudly. Especially since other patrons were engaged in their own conversations. Needless to say, we will NEVER grace this establishment with our presence ever again. read more

Unimpressed. I've gone here a few times since it close to work. Food is okay, nothing spectacular. A salad with chicken on it is $15.95 If I remember....that's like 4-5 bucks too expensive for a place like this. The kicker-it wasn't even good! Beer was cold. Soda water for my vodka was flat. read more

Not very thrilled leaving tonight. We live about 5-7 minutes down the road and used to always go here. Our number 1 spot for buffalo tenders. Lately we've been eating at home but decided to go again. In the past we have waited for food for quite some time but since we both work in the food industry, we get it. Sometimes stuff happens. We are easy going people. But tonight, we ordered around 8pm, a bacon pizza, buffalo tenders and a side of fries. After both bartenders (who we do not blame at all) told us our food should be out shortly, we still waiting another 20-30 minutes (about 45-50 minutes total) We noticed multiple people around us who arrived after us not only get, but finished their meals. We finally had our pizza delivered by the manager, who claimed our food took so long because of the pizza and that they re-fired the buffalo tenders and that they should be right out. He lied straight to our face. Not only was our bacon burnt on our pizza (not terrible but not what we wanted) but we got our room temperature buffalo tenders. These were not cold, but seemed to just be re-tossed in buffalo sauce. They did not just come out. We ended up eating most of our fries and pizza and took the tenders. We will probably not be eating the tenders but I thought I would at least bring them home to bring to work tomorrow so they weren't wasted. Long story short, you might be better off ordering entrees individually so they are hot. read more

Barrett's Ale House - Restaurant and game room kinda a mini Dave an busters - American Near Me - Fall River, Massachusetts

My wife and I moved to Fall River about 2 months ago. We stopped into Barrett's Ale House after shopping at Shaw's next door. Barrett's is a wonderful restaurant/sports bar. Very friendly crowd and the servers and bartenders are top-notch ( especially Jen, she makes a mean spiced Moscow mule! ). I hate to admit it but we've been here at least 7 times in the 2 months. Their fish tacos and their prosciutto/ balsamic pizza are both real good. Also you have to try the cheese steak rolls with dipping sauce. We are rapidly becoming regulars. read more

Love the location, love the food, love the game room, but could leave the staff behind any day of the week. I've been here a couple times now, once with just my girlfriend and I, and another with some friends, and both times the staff have been less-than-attentive or outright rude. My first visit to the store was just to grab some takeout. I was there only 5 minutes after they said my food would be ready (which, for a Thursday night, I expected it to take much longer then it did to make) and found a huge line of people waiting. I made my way to the front, only to find out that the food actually only took half the time, and was already cold. I went to pay, but the hostesses started shuffling around, and began talking trash about a couple people in the back room/kitchen. Totally unprofessional, especially while I was waiting to pay. It took a few minutes before someone finally came up and took the money and I was on my way to eat my food. Oh well. The second time around went a bit better though. My friends and I went on a Saturday evening and found it was pretty packed. We used their online seating tracker though and found it pretty handy as we played some games to pass the time. A+ move in my book, since it beat the hell out of just standing in their cramped ramp-area, being in everyone's way. We didn't get the option of sitting in the dining area or bar, and were brought to some high top seats by the far wall. It was super noisy, and we hadn't known that it was right as a Bruins game had started. Our mistake. The waiter came over and we put in our orders; any requests for any kind of special changes to the meals were denied. Oh well, it didn't make too much of a difference, because once the food came out, all anyone was excited to talk about was how good the food was. The steak portion was huge, the buffalo wings came out in a heaping plate, the Portuguese mac and cheese was mega flavorful, and the Barrett's Boneless Tour sampler was great. No complaint's all around, and definitely company we could enjoy. But.....then we didn't see the waiter again. For a long time. We didn't get any refills on drinks, and finally he came around to give us the bill, apologizing due to the big influx of game-time customers. Overall, the couple of times that I've been here, I've been happy with the food, alright with the environment (it's like a more adult Charlie Horse!) and could really leave the Staff. Go for the great food and game time atmosphere, but don't expect much from your servers. read more

I mean, I can't really give Barrett's an adequate review because every time I've gone I've been drunk. But I digress. Barretts offers a decent drink selection, you can get Coor's light or Miller's light for $2.50 a pint. That's pretty damn cheap. Their pizza is typical bar pizza, but they do it well. I think Barrett's actually has my favorite bar pizza out of all the bar pizza. So, good job on that. I got the chourice sub last time I went and it was subpar. Just chourice, pepper and onion thrown into a sub roll. I mean, it's kind of hard to judge a bar on their food when they are clearly just competing with the surrounding bars. St. James' has better food and it's an Irish pub. What does that say about you, Barrett's? Not much. Not... much. So. To summarize. Barrett's drink prices are fair, their pub pizza is great, food besides that- not so much. It's Fall River- you'll take what you can get. And Barrett's is pretty much the poster child of that mantra. read more

My second time here. I will never be back again. The staff always seems to have no idea what they are doing. I had a reservation and 30 minutes later, I am asking the hostess what is going on with my reservation. The answer was, oh yes it is ready. The waitress has to be hunted down for things. Steak tips ordered medium rare and was served medium well. What is going on at this place? Management has lost control. read more

Had my daughter's birthday party there it was a great Pizza Buffet lunch, and the kids enjoyed the game room. I have gone there before they were Barrett's and been there since they changed a few years ago and the service and quality of the food has always been great, I will be repeating my visit. GREAT PLACE!!! read more

Went to dinner at Barrett's Ale House in Fall River. The restaurant is larger than expected, clean and well maintained. The server gave us fast, friendly service. She was very personable and honest. She brought drink refills without having to be chased down and was attentive without being obtrusive. The food came out hot and fresh in a timely manner. Everything was displayed well and the little touches like the paper doilies under the chowder cup and "stuffie" plate were a nice addition. The appetizers were phenomenal. The New England Clam Chowder was excellent. The 10oz. burgers were perfectly cooked, sandwiches were made beautifully and the fries are thick-cut, perfectly cooked and awesome. You get a good amount of food so bring your appetite! read more

so reasonably priced and GREAT food! The service was also great. We were a group of 4 for my friends birthday dinner. Everything was in a timely manner. We went on a Saturday night. read more

Had the Chicken Mozambique and my fiancé had the bbq chicken panini with cheese and bacon. Both our meals were great. Although my meal was a bit spicy for my preference. We went in a big group and everyone enjoyed their meals. The menu had plenty of selections! Service was a bit slow towards he end of the night but that could partly be because we were taking our sweet time talking. We ordered a chocolate molten lava cake for desert and that was great too! Great place for families and friends to gather. read more

Ended up here for Grandma's 83rd birthday party (not because Grandma is a drinker, but because they could easily facilitate a reservation for 13 people). All I have to say is: GET THE NACHOS. At least every other table in the place was ordering them and we did too. They were not only huge, but also loaded. I had a fish dish and it was really tasty. Everyone else seemed to like their food too. Although, Aunt Helen did want her steak still mooing and as rare as they could make it: it came out medium. The manager came out and told us that they couldn't make it any more rare than that as the steaks are pre-cooked in the morning and then heated up when ordered. Sounded fishy and the worst way of cooking a steak to me, but others liked their steaks that were asked for at medium and above. Just something to consider if you are feeling beefy. There were also some huge beers passing by me (nothing brewed on site, that I noticed). I was bummed, because I am sure they were cheap (as we were in the burbs) and they looked awesomely cool and refreshing, but I had to drive home after dinner. It was a great experience and the service was awesome. Would go back if it were anywhere close to where I live. read more

Barrett's Ale House is a typical sports bar, in a typical sports bar environment, with typical sports bar food. In all respects it is a solid, if not truly memorable, place to grab a bite to eat and some drinks. Despite being average on all accounts, it was a pleasant stop for a meal after a visit to Battleship Cove, and a very comforting, familiar place that is good for locals and visitors alike. The staff were friendly and quick, the prices.were good, the place was clean, and the food filled my belly. You can't go wrong with that. This place is really big too, and has an attached arcade, so it's sure to be a winner for the convenience factor with regards to large parties and groups with kids. For my meal I ordered the mac and cheese, and I think the meat addition would have been a better option to liven up the flavors a bit, but it was still good without it. My husband ordered a works pizza, which was generously topped with veggies, meat, and cheese. There aren't a lot of nice sit-down options in Fall River, so this place would probably be my go-to option again if I'm ever in the area. read more

I came to Barrett's on the recommendation of a co-worker to meet a client for lunch on a Monday afternoon. I arrived first and was seated promptly in the lower dining room. I placed an order for drinks and nachos, hoping by the time my appetizer arrived my guest would be there as well. No such luck. After lingering for the better part of an hour and a half, staring wistfully at the second half of my nachos, I accepted that I was being stood up and wolfed down those delicious chilli covered chips. After finishing my appetizer, I placed an order for a BLT wrap with french fries, which arrived quickly and was great. The fries were seasoned to perfection, the bacon crisp, and the veggies in the wrap were refreshing. The other great thing about my lunch was my waitress Zoey. She was pleasant, funny, attentive and quick. She brought refills before they were asked for, made conversation with me, and never hovered or got impatient at the fact that I was taking up one of her tables for almost 3 hours while waiting for a guest who never showed up. She also took the time to.go through the menu with me and make suggestions. Overall, I had a great dining experience and I will definitely be back in the future. I'm only giving 4 stars for now because I have yet to sample the beer and alcohol selections, but I will update my review once I do. read more

If you're from Fall River, you already know about Barrett's. It's the sort of place the attracts townies- to watch a game, celebrate a birthday, or just have a beer after work Barrett's is one of those places locals flock to. I have met co-workers, family, and dates here with no regrets. Part sports bar, part arcade, part family restaurant Barrett's has a little something for everybody. There's big televisions everywhere and the arcade is pretty nice for one attached to the side of a restaurant. The food here is very good and I cannot recommend their pizzas enough. Chorizo and pepper is a must try here but the standard pepperoni and cheese are excellent as well. There's many, many beers on tap and lots of liquor and mixed drinks too. Parking is ample but a bit sketchy as it shares a lot with Shaw's so there can be lots of traffic. I have only ever waited for a table there on Friday and Saturday night and can usually get one with no problem on a weeknight. If you're driving through Fall River and looking to have a nice meal and maybe catch a game I would highly recommend Barrett's. read more

Everyone seems to LOVE this place. I think it's fine, but not the greatest. Others LOVE the mac and cheese and the pizza, I've had both and thought they were fine but not awesome. My food has always been satisfactory and so has the service, but I have only gone in the afternoon early evening. The menu is really big, so that is a plus. The onion rings and fries are delicious. There are also a ZILLION tvs here, so if you need to be watching some sports game, thats a plus. read more
