There is also a kiosk you can use if you don't have the app. The roads in this area can be a bit challenging to navigate. If it's a nice day, just walk over. The interior is very high energy. I love the metal musician sculptures. The huge diorama by one of the entrances shows this spot in Worcester when the canal was the main source of traffic for goods. This is after all The Canal District. Today the canal is under the street just outside that door. Times they do change things. I very much appreciate these types of eating venues. Where everyone can get what they want. Sushi, Cuban, Burgers, Italian ice, Boba, Cookies. Options. For shopping you'll find a wine merchant, The Market Pantry sells loose teas, oils, spices and kitchen goods and an Irish goods store, Erin gift shop, sells beautiful Aran Island sweaters, Muckross brand hats and purses along with other Irish inspired items. A few high tops are located along one wall in a hallway toward the back. We found one larger table in a small alcove nearby the high-tops and then there is an open area at the front that hold about twenty tables or so. A microbrewery is attached to the market too. All the vendors we spoke with were very friendly. Definitely could have walked away with so much food and loose teas and gifts.

Lilac Hedge is a worthy compromise. The beef is delicious.

They have a great variety of Boars Head Meats for their sandwich offerings. The prices are good too- only $6.49 for a pretty loaded sandwich on a bulkie that came with a pickle and chips. There was also a good variety of fresh baked goods and the staff was extremely kind and friendly- I was actually shocked when I read the other review of staff being rude. Great spot for a lunchtime sandwich, baked goods, seasonal produce, and old style candy!

Pretty…read moresmall by anyone's standards, there are about 7-8 vendors who regularly set up on a consistent level. If you are looking for fresh picked LOCAL produce, this is the place to come. Things get going the 1st week in July, and by the end of the month things are rolling. New this year are orchard wines from Hardwick Winery. One of the vendors starts growing tomato plants right after the Superbowl in January to give them a head start for the market.......Best vine-ripened tomatoes anywhere! The hours are 9:30AM to 2PM M-W-F, and the market runs from the end of June to the end of October every year...............

I go there middle of the day not a lot going on, as other posts have noted the lady working the counter was cold and not very welcoming, no hello or how are you when I walked in. I politely said hi as she picked up the phone, no response even after she hung up from her phone call. I inquired about if they were organic bc there is a sign that says hormone free etc, she just blandly said no bc they give their cows grain, and that was the end of that. They have good products but it's hard to support local farms when the people working there seem to not give a shit about the people walking in the door. Number one rule of sales: sell the company, sell yourself, sell the product. She didn't do any of these things. The eggnog is pretty good, really thick, I like it. But they could work on their enthusiasm for their customers, and customer service hell even a smile would have been nice.

I now take my boys here every year. And I plan on continuing the tradition with them. Fond memories of penny candy, and apple dumplings with vanilla ice cream. And the merry -go-round and swings and those super fast and hot slides rofl. The beauty of the orchard and of course the tasty apples! They have their own cheese and fresh baked goods including different sized trays of their always good apple pie dumplings that you can buy to go or you can go to the building outside for refreshments and sit at the picnic tables. But be warned, the yellow jackets are everywhere. They don't tend to sting unless they have been irritated but it's hard to sit still when they are crawling on your foot or drink. Though I don't mind sharing, this isn't what I had in mind. But that's nature. You can always escape to your car to finish your refreshment s and head back out to check out their gift shop or antiques area! It's also a beautiful walk on the road at the orchard as well with gorgeous views of sunset and apple trees just before closing. They of course have many events for the public like book fairs, and festivals of all kinds so it's wise to follow their Facebook page! Brookfield orchard has been a family owned and operated business since 1918! I hope they continue to get the support they need to stay open. It truly is a nice place to go to spend a couple of hours and support a small business. Be sure to leave with some tasty apples, apple cider and those amazing apple dumplings! I know we can never leave without them! I do recomend this place! Bring the family! It's got a little something for everyone!

It was a spectacular sandwich. I also got a side of their cowboy caviar which contained corn, tomato, black beans, onion, peppers. It was a tad underseasoned but still tasty. The sandwiches take a while to prepare but are well worth it, they're delish. Pricing is very reasonable for the massive quantities of food. This is in rural Princeton MA and has sprawling seating with picnic tables and umbrellas. I would absolutely come back here if in the area again, and highly recommend checking it out!
