Yes! Wow, what can I say?! This is the epitome of Old School Diner car restaurants! What's good?! More like what isn't! Everything is rock solid and cooked to perfection. I had three eggs, thick-cut bacon, wheat toast and an endless cuppa Joe. No negatives whatsoever! They even gave me those potatoes from the grill, which I seldom eat, and they were seasoned just right and had minimal red and green peppers mixed in. Priced just right. Great service folk. Clean facility in an old car railroad car. What more can you ask for. Highest recommendation!! read more

On Shrewsbury St, which has a lot of food options. So this places 90 year history is very impressive. Family owned and run. Good hearty coffee. The creamer was added for you when you ordered. The cream was stored in a container that appeared to be an original device from the '30s. Worked well enough, so if it ain't broke... you know. I had Italian Breakfast. Three eggs as you like them, toast, hash browns, Italian sausage or a meatball with marinara sauce. I was impressed that I found a bay leaf poking out of the marinara sauce, so I know it was made in-house. I wish there had been a bit more spice, but very good. My wife had an omelette, the Massachusetts Pirate. Very well made with steak, peppers and onions. Also had toast and hash browns. We didn't have them, but the pancakes looked delicious. We saw several prepared while we waited at our counter seats. They're big and quite fluffy. Might have to have those next time. The place was very busy. Service was a bit slow, but gotta expect that for a place like this. Very, very friendly. We expect to go again! read more

Great experience here on a Sunday morning. Despite the limited seating, we were at immediately. It's super cute and nostalgic in there. The waitress was awesome, super quick and attentive. Our food was at our table less than 15 minutes after ordering. Everything was great, a perfect classic diner breakfast. My omelette and home fries were delicious, but ending with a chocolate chip pancake was my favorite part. read more

Drunk food ... that's what you get here. There is a lot of variety but nothing is done well. When you have been out at the bars in Worcester and need a little something to absorb the alcohol ... and a plate of sausage, meatballs and pasta sounds like a good idea at 1 a.m. ... you come here. Ypu also get to see slme of the hardest working people on the planet navigate a small space while cooking for a packed restaurant. This is one of the few train car diners out there, popular in the 1930's and actuslly made near Worcester, these train car diners are a stalle of central Massachusetts. This isn't the New York or New Jersey style diner, its something uniquely its own New England setting. Its alwsys packed here. You'll be sitting elbow to elbow with boisterous and well lubricated club and bargoers on small yet surprisingly comfortabke stools at the counter ... or may be lucky enough to score one of the incredibly unckmfortable wooden booths, where the staff gets to watch 4 people attempt to navigate elbows and knees to eat their hangover saving food. The food here is not what you'd hope to get at any other restaurant. However, you can't knock it because the dry toast, rubbery omelettes and ketchup-like red sauce are one of the only options this late at night standing between you and a morning full of headache and sluggishness. Nothing you eat here will be good ... but it won't be bad either. Just as athletes and body buikders eat food as fuel, with little actual thought to the taste .. that's your mission here. This is a rite of passage for anyone who has lived in, or near, one of the worst small cities in the USA. Embrace and enjoy the tradition and the wonderfully vintahe interior, virtually unchanged with time since the 1930s ... 1990s ... and today. The only exception to that rule is that they mercifully started to take credit cards recently, making it a lot easier to make the call to walk through those rattling wooden doors at 2 a.m. still thinking about almost scoring at a bar. read more

Boulevard Diner - It's 2 a.m. on a Friday where else would I be? - Diners Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

The atmosphere was nice and welcoming, and the portions were fair for the price. However, the wait time for our order was longer than expected, and one of the meals was missing a side item at first. The food was still enjoyable, just not enough for me to give a higher rating. read more

The food was delicious and the vibes were amazing! we got our food fast. and the workers were so sweet..

Great old school diner and friendly service. I would definitely go back the next time I am in the neighborhood.

Authentic diner experience, with the ambiance and organized chaos of a bustling diner. Mushroom omelette was awesome along with the sausage gravy and biscuits and Italian toast. Friendly service!!! read more

Young waitress, Gina, who's barely legal decided to slip her number to my husband then when we went through something a little bit after that, not too long later decided to take upon herself to throw herself at a married man you still have the place but beyond disgusted in the employee and won't be back. food is amazing though. read more

I love the old school look and feel. The portions was a nice size, and the food had flavor and great service, I'll recommend this diner to others. read more

An excellent midnight dining experience. Food offerings from classic diner favorites to unique omelettes and local favorites. Minimal wait as staff is expertly getting everyone in and out, without ever rushing the diners. Friendly and charming experience inside a vintage diner built by Worcester Lunch Car Company in 1936. Booth and bar service available. Diner coffee does not disappoint. Solo or in small groups, I would recommend this as your midnight diner stop in Worcester. read more

Stopped here for lunch on a long road trip between NY and Maine with my kid. Loved the atmosphere of the old diner car. Although a very tiny place, we were able to get a booth. The menu items are all on the board above the counter, and on cards attached to the outside of the board. I'd rather have a nice printed menu, but this was fine. My daughter just wanted a plate of fries, and I wanted hot dogs, so we shared the hot dog platter. The dogs were very nicely grilled, the relish was sweet. Ketchup and mustard on the table. The fries were pretty good too! I think the ketchup had gone a little off, though. Service was that kind of brusque-friendly you'd expect for a little hole in the wall like this. Great local experience at a fantastic bargain. read more

We ordered breakfast from here for delivery a few days ago. We leaned more towards appetizers rather than mains and they certainly offer a wide variety of juicy shit: jalapeno poppers, fried mac and cheese bites, fried ravioli, fries, CHEESY fries, I can't remember anything else and it's frustratingly difficult to find their menu online so that will have to suffice. We were relatively conservative with our ordering this time. I snagged an order of their fries (large sized), fried mac and cheese bites, and the good ol' entree version of ravioli. The fries certainly were large and plentiful however not seasoned in any capacity. I could look on the bright side and appreciate the lack of any sog whatsoever but they were so dry that I knew if I tried to sprinkle some salt and pepper, it would just fall off. They were disappointing and flavorless. Thankfully condiments came to our rescue. The fried mac and cheese bites were tasty but if you reference the photo I have included, more like flat triangles than actual balls which increases the surface area and decreases the volume to surface area ratio, greatly decreasing the quantity of MAC. I won't complain about the mac because it was good, but they are not a critical order (when talking about fried mac and cheese, I feel like that says something). The ravioli was just meh. The ravioli themselves were aggressively soft and I feel like I've had better marinara from a bottle. I will accept responsibility for the fact that I ordered ravioli from a diner so I don't know what I was expecting. If I ordered from here again, I would stick with the diner classics and leave the other stuff on the menu. read more

Overall two words,NO EFFORT!! I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a bulkie. They charged me for the sandwich then up charged me a dollar for the bulkie. Crazy work. My bacon egg and cheese came out to 9 bucks. I regretted ordering the stone fries,i mean home fries. Half of them were almost raw hard potatoes. A sloppy put together bacon egg and cheese on a cold bulkie bun. I swear she put the thinnest piece of cheese on my sandwich. This place does not give any effort in quality but charging prices like they are quality. Its places like this that make the city of Worcester look bad. How is this diner still in business. Straight up trash food that's thrown together. They definitely making out like a fat rat now that Dennys is gone. Plus Kenmore closes early so they know they running the late night sit down breakfast game. Worcester needs a real late night diner that serves good quality food. Not jailhouse slop. Boulevard Diner more like Back Alley way diner. If you dont care about how your food looks or tastes go here. I rate this place from 1 to 10 a very hard 3. I remember a buddy of mine gave me half of an egg and cheese sandwich from this place. I remember vividly biting into the half of the sandwich and crunching into eggshell. Yup true story. I only went here because my friends were hungry so I attempted to give them another try. Huge mistake. read more

Very disappointing. We were excited to go to this iconic diner. The staff was very friendly. However, the food... not very good. My friend ordered an advertised omelette and asked for no mushrooms. She got mushrooms. When she mentioned it to the young waitress, the girls seem dumbfounded and didn't know what to do so my friend said just forget it. I'll pick them out. I ordered the eggs Benedict. The English muffins were hard. I could've used a steak knife to cut them. The Canadian bacon was wafer thin. And the poached eggs were an attempt at poaching eggs . The yolks were broken and there were white cooked egg on the plate most whites were non existent. When I order eggs Benedict I like to see two poached eggs on top of the Canadian bacon and English muffins . The hollandaise was very watery and tasteless. Some of the home fries were not cooked well and were on the hard side and flavorless, no spices at all. We will not return. read more

Nice little spot with a great team behind the counter. I'll be coming back. Great mac n cheese (huge portion) and sandwiches.

Have been going to the boulevard diner for more than 40 years. Always loved it, still do. I was gob smacked when I recently went there and it was closed. The Boulevard not open 24/7. The city is lesser for it. Love the place and will always go there. Every one should. read more

A tasty dinner in a cute diner with terrific staff. Can't beat the combination! Had the lamb shank and warm, freshly out of the oven, apple crisp. The staff was so welcoming. The diner has been run since 1936 by three generations of the same family. The charming woman behind the counter is the granddaughter. A real find in Worcester. read more

The Boulevard diner never lets you down. Whether it's breakfast, lunch or a 2am snacking. The food is always on point and delicious. Had the bully Christo for the first time today. It was amazing, I don't know why I've never had it before, but now I'll struggle to choose between the Italian breakfast and the bully Christo when there in the morning. Always on point.... read more

My fiancée and i were skeptical of this place. I can't lie, we judged a book by its cover. We even walked in and were the only ones there. It was awkward and very quiet, the waitress was taking our order from behind the counter. It was small and cramped as well. BUT MAN WAS THE FOOD OFF THE CHAIN!! We both got omelettes and home fries and i swear i inhaled it instead of eating it. 10/10 would recommend to anyone passing through or staying in the area. Staff was incredibly friendly and quick to serve. Will be back. read more

Cute little diner, very cool original decor inside. The staff was soooo nice. I'm a vegan and they didn't have much I could eat but the waitress/cook said she would make me pasta with a mix of veggies in marinara. It was good food, but I'm mostly impressed with the hospitality. My father ordered a standard breakfast dish of eggs, sausage, toast, hash browns and he enjoyed it. Would definitely go back. read more

This place is on the National Historic Registry for 23 years and should include the family staff. All 3 Generations represented here and they are funny and out of a film noir period sometime between 1930 and 1955. This is a period Diner. No tweezer food with a sprig of parsley here. Not gourmet but very delicious cooked to order food better than any chain. What chain diner serves the Italian breakfast with hot sauce, chili pepper flakes and parmigiana? A locals and friends spot where Guests are welcomed. read more

I would recommend this place every day of the week for Enni and every meal. Particularly the breakfast are wonderful. I've had most of the omelettes the French toast on the waffles as well as the pancakes. They are all excellent. I personally recommend the fat boy burner I think it's one of the most underrated burgers in Worcester. read more

Normally, I LOVE THIS PLACE. Never have I ever had any complaints. This morning I went in with my partner for the whole diner experience. This place is normally up beat and the staff are very nice. Our order was placed by Lisa. I ordered a big bully which includes 3 eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, toast and your choice of pancakes or French toast ( I chose French toast ) my partner ordered an order of pancakes with bananas and whipped cream and a side order of hash browns and bacon. After I placed my order I circled back to Lisa to add that if she can we'd like the hashbrowns crispy. Once we recieved our order... I immediately notice instead of pancakes we got waffles.. and instead of hashbrowns? We got home fries. I tell one of the workers about the waffle mistake who proceeds to inform Lisa whom is now in the back kitchen. Lisa comes out and loudly says "She ordered waffles not pancakes that's what she said" proceeds to repete loudly throughout the diner that I ordered waffles when I clearly ordered pancakes. At this point Im already irritated with the service. They take away the waffles to replace with pancakes. They also take the plate of home fries ( that was supposed to be crispy hashbrowns ) to add more home fries? I continue to eat trying to ignore what just happened. Lisa then to new incoming customers ( I guess they were regulars ) she's loudly asking them "HEY YOU WANT THESE WAFFLES? On the house Apparently they're a mistake" asked every other customer if they'd like toast or to be topped off with coffee EXCEPT for our table. The one table who never even received their toast that came with the order. I have NEVER felt like such a bother or any indifferent from any of the staffs/ customers at this location until today. I left crying because I was singled out and so embarrassed at the way this lady treated me. Im giving 2 stars because normally this place is awesome. However today, the way that I was singled out and judged as well as embarrassed? Today will be my last day coming in here personally. read more

Good food. Good service Great menu realty liked old fashion look. Bservice was Great

Just a great late late night eat or grub awesome service especially at that time of night fast quick and tasty.

Went here with my boyfriend for breakfast and the food such as the home fries were beyond greasy. The waitress asked us what we wanted to eat before even handing us menus to which my boyfriend had to ask "What do you have". I mean call me crazy but usually restaurants give you menus before you choose what to eat. My boyfriend's iced coffee had pieces of hard stale bread in it. After telling the waitress she laughed it off and claimed it's because they keep the bread above the ice machine. Soooo don't keep the bread above the ice machine? Idk common sense. The food is underwhelming and overpriced. I know it's a diner but this place is crusty. Looks like it hasn't been cleaned since the 1970s. If you're looking for a great diner experience go to Miss Worcester! read more

It's a classic. You go see a show and then you go to Boulevard. Went there this week. Got fries and wings. The wings are battered, Like little fried chicken legs. Not so great for my gluten sensitive partner. The fries are nothing to write home about. But it was all hot, and freshly cooked. The staff was nice, if a bit harried. We left with warm food in our tummies at midnight. Win. read more

Long overdue review. Watch the prices on your bill people they are known to charge you whatever they feel like! Many old school residents from the street don't even eat there anymore.

Christian the server works his ass off. There's so much chaos past a certain time here and the service is so efficient.

Oh my Lord your food is so authentic and delicious. I've had it twice in one week and want more LOL I've had the manicotti and meatballs. Absolutely delicious tender meatball, and your sauce has that Zhang that I like not too acidic either. Perfect amount of cheese and flavoring, maybe just a side of Parmesan cheese would make it 100%. But your bread is so soft is that homemade? I would say so. My husband had the chicken and broccoli with garlic sauce. He said that the flavors are so pronounced and join together so well. He also had your American chop Suey. It was quite filling so I didn't mind finishing it for him LOL. Amazing prices as well! I just love Boulevard diner. read more
