Spangler offered a full tans of food varieties all being fresh. My office just moved closer to Spangler and sometime I just want a quick soup n salad. They have a hot bar that offers cuisines from around the world which makes for a nice change. The staff is so kind and helpful. Peak lunch time can be crowded so plan accordingly.

Went to Spangler for breakfast on the weekdays. They open pretty early. I like the French toast…read more The sausage was average. Burger and wrap were not bad. Overall, the food court has a really good deal and there's a bit of a discount for student.

This is one of our favorite spots in all of Boston!! High Street has something for everyone,…read morebecause every food stall offers their own unique cuisine. Our favorite items are the miso steak bowl from Charming Gardener, the sushi rolls from Fuji, and the chicken nuggets from Haley Jane's. They have a few bars that are open on weekends and in the evenings with craft beer, wine and cocktails. This is such a fun place to mix and match different food items from different food vendors - every time we bring friends here, they always love it! There is ample seating inside and outside of the food hall. However, because High Street is located in the Financial District, they are much busier during the workday for lunch than on weekends. Street parking is more available in this area at night and on weekends.

This is a TOURIST TRAP and we fell right into it. The…read morechicken sandwich place-Soggy and tough. Fries not seasoned and bland. Pizza place- the most boring $7 piece of pizza we've ever had. It was ok but just mid. The taco place- absolutely insane. We ordered a bowl and the rice at the bottom was SO HOT it completely melted the bowl and it collapsed as my daughter tried to eat it. She was horrified that she just injected that many microplastics from a literally melted bowl. Yes, they refunded us for the bowl but it overall an awful dining experience. What a waste of money and I hate how they market this hall like it's AMAZING. We were cheated.

There is a water boat station that u can guy tickets to go on a boat tour. The front of the mall has a public parking garage. I suggest reading the small prints before parking if you are going to park there more that 8 hours. This is a beautiful mall. The stores open a little late, as in 11. It is not so busy. At 10:30 only a few things opened. It is clean and a nice place to hang out. The food court is a nice size.

Mall is updated clean, we hit up DIY craft store, Lululemon, TJmaxx, the food court (which had a futbol / soccer match on) and a small crowd watching it! The Harry Potter store wasn't open when we went -- shucks. Nice walk around and good to know they still open!

Wow, it changed so much over the years, maybe due to Covid?…read more The TKK friend chicken has closed down here. The other side stalls are also closed. It appears only a few options available: poke, noodle soup, spicy pot, bubble tea, and rice place. It is a cafeteria style food court, so make sure to clean up after yourself. But the price is honestly so high now ($16 for rice & beef and $15 for noodle soup), I think I will go elsewhere for better quality food and that's cleaner.

This was our first time staying in Somerville while visiting Boston. We were looking for some…read morebreakfast and stumbled upon this place not far from our hotel in walking distance. The restaurant was clean and the young lady at the register was pleasant and took our order. The food is made to order. I had an egg white omelet with peppers, onions, and spinach with a side of grilled chicken and my fiancé had scrambled eggs with peppers and onions. The food was delicious. Also, the coffee was very good. The restaurant has more of a Latin/Spanish style. We would definitely recommend.

WOOP WOOP Location aside, the spac... you know what? Location NOT aside. It's a bar that caters to a very specific group: employees in said building or residents of the Archstone village that never came to be. And based on the shoulder to shoulder post-5pm crowd, they're fine with that. As a destination though, be wary of short parking. The beer may be cheap (according to my drinking buddies) but well drinks run an average $7. I'd love to return for the fabled nachos, mounds of which passed by with an almost scheduled regularity, assaulting the nose with savory smells of salty fry and the eyes with drippy, melted goop. The space offers nothing. Open, empty, unadorned. Boulders near the main entrance give a "Honey I Shrunk The Kids and lost them in a Zen garden" feel. I joked to Ellen S, "It's like a cafeteria in here." Her reply: "It is a cafeteria." Oh right. Of note and to earlier reviews, women outnumber men 4 to 1. Happy hunting.

I popped in because we were at the park right next door and one of my children was hungry. I ended up getting hummus and pretzel chips, but I looked around at all of the delicious-looking food and wanted to get something for myself (but didn't -- maybe next time!). The day I visited, I saw a burger station, a sandwich station, and a Japanese noodle station. Everyone was lined up at the noodle station ... it must have been good. There was also an antipasto bar, a fresh cookie area, hot coffee and tea (several different kinds) and a large selection of cold beverages (including kombucha). There are a lot of tables and bar seating, both inside and out. The whole area is very inviting and bright, with lots of windows and natural light streaming in. It's a pleasant place to grab breakfast or lunch, or just a quick snack.

Three of us tried the non-alcoholic drinks and they were yummy. There's a patio you can sit out on during a beautiful summer night (with a retractable roof in case it starts to rain). Inside the ambiance is cozy and well designed. This is a great spot to go to with a big or small group. There was a slight mixup with our order, but our waitress was great, made it right and offered us a free round of drinks, which was kind. It's not far from the redline, so it's super easy to get to if you don't want to drive in. All around a win from us!
