The bathroom situation is a little fraught but other than that it's such a cool space and such a fun bar.

First time here, first time in Worcester!! Went here for a friend's birthday celebration on a…read moreSunday evening and it was quite nice. This place looks deceptively small from the outside and also when you first walk in - there's the long bar area. But there's a whole another side room with a really cool chandelier and tables - this pic is on the website. Plus there's a whole fenced-in patio in the back which also has quite a few tables and also a corn hole game setup. Has some greenery plants and lights. Nice for entertaining - and that is where the party was. It can easily fit about 20-30 people. We had cake for the birthday and people ordered drinks at the bar. The bartender was very friendly. Looks like a neighborhood bar where people know each other. They have some bar food like pretzel, hot dog - the hot dog was only $3 which is unbelievable! Anyway we all had a great time- played some corn-hole too!

Came here excited to try out the cocktails of one of the 10 best new bartenders in the country -…read morehttps://punchdrink.com/articles/best-new-bartenders-2025/ While we were not from the area, we were cautioned by several friends that Gigantic might not live up to the hype. What we did like was the old school music, vintage feel that took on the vibes of an antique shop (it was fun to look around), and the intimate setting. The cocktails were really good and creative with a menu that updates frequently and featured some classics as well. The cocktails were a bit pricey for what you got and for the area, the snack options were very limited and overpriced, and service was very slow despite few people being in the bar. We had to ask to be served and waited over 15 minutes for the check. We are glad we checked out Gigantic and would not recommend going out of your way for it as there are other great cocktail bars in neighboring towns.

The bartenders were super friendly and made sure to keep up with the demands of our venue. The food and drinks were top-notch. We were served some finger food, and the meat balls were to die for.

If you like mystery and enter a secret hidden bar for the elite just like in the movies, this location will make you feel like that with its setup.

We stepped in the door, couldn't move in any direction, couldn't make it to the bar, we had to turn right out.

It was a shame, the musicians seemed bet talented and we were looking forward to at least listening in but went elsewhere instead.

I had the hummus trio recently and it's not hummus; it's like the baby food version of hummus. It includes an olive tapenade which also tastes like baby food and hardly a taste of olive. Plus some mystery tasteless red sauce. There's also a pork confit which looks like a microwaved pork chop for $16. There's also pizza which I'm sure is microwaved. The only thing decent is the raw bar such as oysters, shrimp cocktail, etc. But it's expensive (on par with other places). The tuna tartar is passable. Hard to say if it's worth it. In sum, go for the cocktails but not the food.
