Troy City Brewing is a craft brewery that opened in Fall River, Massachusetts in December 2018. It…read morewas founded by business partners Keith Carvalho and Mike Ferreira. The name of the brewery is a reference to the historical name of Fall River. Although originally founded under the name "Fall River" in 1803, the town changed its name to "Troy" the following year and eventually changed it back in 1834. Carvalho started a home brewing club in Fall River in 2006. In 2017, Troy City brewing was founded as a home brewing entity when Carvalho joined forces with Ferreira. Eventually they would move in at a historic textile mill and opened their taproom to the public a year later. Together with nearby Canned Heat Craft Brewing, Troy City Brewery brings the brewing industry back to Fall River for the first time since 1963. My wife and I first visited Troy Cory in October 2019. We were in town for the day to visit the home of Fall River's most infamous citizen: Lizzie Borden!! After visiting some spooky sites around town, we decided to check out Fall River's local craft brewery scene. When we arrived, they were having a Halloween costume party in the taproom (which was totally fine with us). I ended up sampling four beers: the Rail Trail Cranberry Lager, the TCB Test IPA, Maplecroft (Maple Syrup Porter), and Gage Hill (Toasted Marshmallow Chocolate Porter). The last one was my favorite and it came with a cinnamon-sugar rimmed glass. Overall, my wife and I enjoyed our visit to Troy City. If you're planning on visiting any spooky Lizzie Borden sites in Fall River this Halloween season, make sure to visit Troy City Brewing.

The kitchen staff is always super nice and walk everything out to you, especially when you're out in The Adirondack chairs overlooking the water. One thing that really stands out to me is the scalloped fries. I'm not sure of the science behind it, but the way they do it is incredibly good. Way better than the typical chip/french fry. Separate fryer as well for gluten sensitive folks and many options food wise as well. Check this place out if you haven't.

It also seemed like some items on the menu weren't available, so our family just ordered hot dogs and flatbread with beer, and everything was good. Not exactly "wow" food, but I think it's a great spot for locals to stop by, hang out, and grab a drink. We're planning to come back again. It's also nice that there's plenty of parking!

Staff was quick to sling drinks, plenty of swag available, excellent selection of grab and go beer if in a hurry. Very casual and cool atmosphere. Both indoor and outdoor seating available.

The last time I…read moregot a sour slushie beer in the summertime, and it was sweeter than other similar drinks I've had at other places - I loved it. These didn't seem available this time, so I ordered their Untapped-award-winning Peanut Butter & Jelly Sour - WHOAAAA! So delicious, and smelled and tasted exactly like the name, not a watered down faint whisper of peanut butter as many similar drinks have. I could see it being a little too sweet if you had more than two of these, but I loved it and wouldn't shut up about it, leading multiple friends to order one. This was unique and a must try, well worth its awards. My friend ordered a Bacon Maple beer that also smelled exactly like its name, but as a vegetarian I declined a sip since I wasn't sure if it had any real bacon in it. It was slammed and busy here, but our wait time at the bar wasn't too bad considering. The beertenders were pretty quick and friendly. Someone was throwing a birthday party and had a band playing, yet they were still open to the public. The acoustics in here are a little bizarre and echo-ey, so the band was unbearably loud. Luckily there were picnic tables and high top tables outside and it wasn't too chilly, so we headed out there. They brought out a few heat lamps which helped my friends that weren't dressed for the weather, and added a nice cozy atmosphere without any bonfire smoke smell. This would be a great area to hang for the fall! They had a food truck available which is always a great feature (Kroffle Kreations - I will review separately soon). There is a small parking lot that's been full every time I've come, but since it's in a far out industrial park area of town, people park on the sides of the road with seemingly no issues. Great little spot and very creative beers, with lots of events hosted! I'm looking forward to branching out into some of their other and darker styles of beer in the future.

Some friends invited my wife and me to see a band play at this place. We are pretty familiar with…read moreBristol, but this place is pretty well hidden. It is in an industrial area. The interior is nice and bright with a decent-sized bar and lots of tables. They had an excellent selection of beers, ales, and stouts. I generally stay away from this kind of place because they are IPA-heavy, and I am not an IPA fan. I had a couple of glasses of this fantastic stout and a great Scottish Ale. My wife had a peanut butter Porter that was yummy. The servers behind the bar were great. They also had a food truck that offered salads and sandwiches. My understanding is that they have a variety of food trucks that rotate through. We had an excellent time listening to music, being with friends, and having some great beverages. I would give this place a try.

We do try to make a reservation for brunch, as I know there's usually a wait. I will say that the decor in the tipsy is one of its biggest drawers. Whoever is decorating, definitely knows what they're doing! The fireplace at the center of the restaurant is always tastefully decorated for the season. I absolutely love it! I had quite a few other $20 lobster rolls specials this summer. The amount of lobster that they give you for $20, and being able to pick your side is one of the best deals around. Not to mention the quality of the food for the $20. My Caesar salad was absolutely delicious too! The other picture I posted is one of my favorite salads that they used to make with the goat cheese "arancini". I really do miss that side, so hopefully they'll bring a back one day. It was quite the meal!

Plenty of free parking. There was a short wait because there was one 1 server on staff but we…read morelooked at menus while we waited. We started with the clam chowder. If you like thick clam chowder, this is it. For meals we opted to split the honey, hot chicken sandwich and a buffalo chicken pizza. Not gonna lie, the bowl of chowder was pretty big, and I was pretty full by the time I was done with it. The honey hot chicken sandwich is more like a honey mustard chicken. It was still pretty good, but if you are expecting hot honey, this is not it. I opted to have the blue cheese on the side with the pizza, because my husband doesn't like blue cheese. The buffalo chicken pizza was actually really delicious. It was like a bar pizza that you would get from the south shore. You really can't find this pizza in Rhode Island or in Southern MA, so this was a great find. Staff were friendly and attentive. I didn't get any alcoholic drinks cause it was pretty early and not much of a day drinker, but it had a really good vibe and I'm sure it's a lot of fun at night. The drink menu looked really good so I'll likely come back for drinks and apps. There's a cute outdoor seating area. It was pretty hot so we sat inside, but I'm sure this is a great place to sit at night time once the sun goes down and it cools off.

Honestly my only issue here was the amount of help there on their phones and sipping on their water bottles. It was a Saturday and I was there during a lull, but I did roll my eyes once or twice. That said, the location is awesome in downtown New Bedford, right by the whaling museum and amazing NHS site. I really did enjoy the flight (even without the clever names or its cool shape), and that cod fish dish was very tasty--nice unique meal for a brewery, in fact. Would I go back? Absolutely.

Moby Dick Brewing Co. - New Bedford, MA Had a great lunch at…read moreMoby Dick Brewing Co. in downtown New Bedford. The vibe is cool, and they serve up some solid food alongside a great craft beer flight. The Food: Pan Seared NBMA Scallops ($24): Served with linguica, summer corn succotash, and harissa aioli. This appetizer was very fresh and exceptionally good. Beet Salad ($15): Whipped goat cheese, roasted beets, blood orange, toasted pistachios, pickled red onion, arugula, EVOO, and balsamic glaze. My wife loved this salad--it was packed with fresh flavors and textures. Lobster Truffle Grilled Cheese ($32): Made with Gruyère cheese, fresh-picked lobster meat, truffle oil, and toasted sourdough. While it tasted good, the truffle flavor was very light, and there wasn't as much lobster as I would expect for a $32 price tag. Ultimately, it was good, but not really worth the price. The Drinks: We also grabbed a four-beer flight, which came on a fun whale-tail paddle with a handy menu card: 1. Raz Sour 2. Blueberry Ale 3. Capsized IPA 4. Colonial Ale Overall, a fun spot with great starters and a cool flight setup. I'd definitely go back for the scallops and drinks, though I might skip the lobster grilled cheese next time.

The last time we went to The Common Pub for dinner, someone told us that a new cocktail place had…read moreopened just across the street. Well, a new place that specializes in craft cocktails is right up my alley. We walked across, found the door, and entered. I was really impressed with the interior space. It was cool and dark. Lots of places to sit with a small bar area where everything is made. The cocktail book is large and has a variety of offerings for every palate. The bartenders were very helpful to our friends who are new to craft cocktails. They stick with vodka martinis. I started with a paper plane, which was very well-made. I then tried one of their specials, the Fig Leaf Old Fashioned, which was fabulous. Everyone had a fabulous time, and we will definitely be back to try some of the Absinthe recipes. I hope my fellow Yelpers support a new cocktail place. We need more of them.

He was knowledgeable, genuinely welcoming, funny, charming, and quick-witted. He made excellent recommendations, shared a little local Portuguese history, and by the end of brunch our group had an inside joke that had the whole outdoor bar laughing. That's the kind of service you don't forget. The food was exceptional. Every special request was perfect--even the extra crispy bacon. The corned beef hash and eggs, crab Benedict, and hash brown waffles were all beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The cocktails were just as impressive. Each one was perfectly balanced and consistent. Do yourself a favor and try at least two from the cocktail menu. Add in the outdoor waterfront seating with boats and jet skis passing by, and it's one of the best brunch spots around. We've always loved Pier 52, but Sheldon took an already great restaurant and made it unforgettable. We'll definitely be back--and hopefully grabbing seats at his bar again.

Hot goss to know before you go: Pier 52 is a destination. Be prepared to linger for the cocktails, music, and the sea breeze long after the food is served. Relax in one of their many Adirondacks and vibe out under the sun. A perfect way to end the weekend.
