Pembroke's (Bryantville) Somewhere Else Tavern, always has the perfect sports-watching trifecta: good company, solid bar food, and always a great crowd in the fall for the Patriots and Alabama football. Of course we love the Bruins, Celts and the Sox! There's something about sharing an excellent pizza at a place like The SET that just makes the game better. Also, a good beverage or two helps! Great to see Jayson, Lori (the fearless owners) and of course Lola on the premises. read more

3rd time or more ordering keep trying to like it but food was horrible. Ordered fish sandwich and burger both overcooked. Burger was burnt and asked for med rare. Fish sandwich dry and bland rice as a side was microwaved and old couldn't eat. Really a waste of $40. Won't go back Never had a good meal and this restaurant is very pricey Disappointed read more

Came to Pembroke, MA from Southern, NH to pick up an antique from a resident. Arrived early to avoid the traffic and so stopped off at A Tavern Somewhere Else in Pembroke, MA. We were pleasantly surprised that this rural town has such a lovely restaurant with amazing food and service. It's in an old home, giving it a country-friendly feel. I love finding places like this. My wife and I started with the corn bread (moist and delicious, with butter and honey) and the "Not-your-mama's meatballs," with a great texture and sauce. For dinner we had the Bolognese (beef, pork, veal...pasta and a tasty homemade sauce), and the Tavern Burger with bacon, cheddar and a thousand-island-type special sauce. The burger was so delicious. And it came with a trio of fried - string, steak and tater-tot fries. We had such a wonderful meal in this quaint home-style restaurant, a tavern you might have seen a century ago! The new chef hit the mark with us. We absolutely recommend a visit to enjoy this varied restaurant with "tastes from around the globe" as the menu says. read more

Abner and I took a drive through the country and had lunch at the Somewhere Else Tavern before heading to Plymouth. There was an Oktoberfest Menu, and everyone on the Facebook site had commented on the schnitzel, so we tried it. They were right! This was done to perfection. For dessert, we tried the pumpkin mousse cake and that was great too. The food was so enjoyable, but there are other reasons why I give 5 stars to this place. The bartender who served us was friendly and answered all of our questions about the restaurant (and other places nearby that are owned by the same people). Another reason is there are many options for your side dishes. Some different ones too. I got the roasted butternut squash, which was amazing. I loved the decor of different animals drinking cocktails. Portions were huge. I was told there is live entertainment on the weekends. We will definitely go back again. A nice find for us. Try the Schnitzel people!!!!! read more

Somewhere Else Tavern - Bbq Cheddar burger - American Near Me - Pembroke, Massachusetts

FYI - the menu available on yelp is not the menu that is currently available. The one we were given at our recent visit was much more limited. read more

I don't often have cause to give a 5 star review to any establishment but feel I must! After a week to end all weeks, Mike greeted us with a smile and seated us promptly. The menu is extensive and varied giving my husband and I the chance to order exactly what we want: his favorite burger and my choice of comfort food, chicken supreme. I asked about desserts at the beginning as I had been very disappointed with our Thanksgiving dinner at a Vermont resort that did not include any pie!! Not on the menu, Mike asked if apple pie would suffice!! The burger was spot on, onion strings were shared, chicken fried to perfection with the just the right gravy over red bliss mashed potatoes and a fresh green bean carrot mix. And yes, a hearty slice of apple pie with two scoops of vanilla ice cream, it doesn't get much better! As a mad decorator for the Christmas Season, I was thrilled with the touches of cheer all around. Each table has a small tree which I noticed nearly every patron picking up and commenting on. The art on the walls reflects the season and brings a smile to even the most worn out of those who enter. Just the right amount of hubbub so you can carry on a conversation with your dining partner and a duo was setting up for live music - only regret is that we couldn't stay longer! Cheers to all and make a visit to Somewhere Else Tavern your next place to dine out! read more

This is my favorite little spot in the whole area, especially when it's warm out and they have the outdoor eating area. I love the food and the drinks. We are lucky to have such a vibe in this neck of the woods :) read more

This place sounded so promising, but unfortunately we were not impressed. My husband and I came here for dinner on a weeknight. We ordered the pretzel for an appetizer. It was warm and soft as expected but nothing thrilling. The beer cheese sauce it was served with tasted like it came out of a jar or a can. I ordered the baked haddock for my meal with mashed potatoes and vegetables. The fish was bland and flavorless. Mashed potatoes were average/forgettable and the vegetables were my favorite part, but overall nothing special. I'm not familiar with the area, but I'm sure there is better quality food near by somewhere else. read more

We wanted to like this place as the same owners run Fork In the Road deli just down the street on Route 27 which has excellent sandwiches such as the Pilgrim and others. So we tried the takeout first for Somewhere Else and the pizza is above average I'd say from the two times we've tried it but we were disappointed with the serving size of the boneless chicken wings for takeout but they were tasty, just not enough of them to make it worthwhile. Then we bought a Groupon for inside dining and tried it on a Sunday night. They had music trivia going on which was fun and good selection of draft beers. My spouse had a salad with chicken which she really enjoyed. However my choice of fish and chips was a poor one because both the sandwich and fries were both overcooked, very bad. read more

Good atmosphere and service but wasn't impressed with food quality or portions; medium rare burger was over cooked and my baked scallops over rice were subpar-rice was better than the scallops which was a small portion for the price. French onion soup didn't come close to being considered good compared to local restaurants recently tried. If I hadn't bought a Groupon because it looked interesting, I probably wouldn't have tried this place but don't count it out. read more

Buying a house in the area, so looking to sample the local places. This place is small and cozy. Friendly waitstaff, great atmosphere. Beer was cold and great. Loved the tzatziki turkey burger. We will definitely be back read more

Service was great and food was delicious! My wife and I went out to dinner last night. We had baked haddock and pot roast. Raspberry topped cheesecake for dessert! Cold beers. Always a good choice to dine here. read more

We go here often. Never had a problem until today. With our 9 year old son we were there for over 2 hours for pretzels sticks, a pizza and burger. It wasn't that busy when we got there. We had to ask a few times where is our food. They gave us a free drink, which I couldn't finish since the boy was bored and wanted to leave. We paid the bill and all was good! We were not rude. We went out the back door since it was closer to our car and raining. The manager came out the front door with a mean face on. Waiting for us to pull up. He made us stop to yell at us that we didn't close the back door behind is. Really you are busy and serves and taking forever. You have the time to come be rude to us! The ambiance is fine, we had to ask twice to turn the music down as we couldn't even hear each other talk. read more

Have been going to Somewhere Else since it opened. Lately, I've noticed the food is hit or miss, but the service is outstanding. Also, when it is hot outside, the 2 window air conditioners, just don't keep up, and it gets warm and uncomfortable inside. Need to add a stronger rooftop or Mini split units to keep the place cool and pleasant. read more

Walk in, no host. Right off the bat I'm annoyed! We get sat on dinner side. Our table was right up against a window of walls where another table was right up against so it was like you were sitting with strangers divided by glass. I ordered the chicken bruschetta which was good. My husband ordered ribeye with mashed. Ribeye was chewy and mashed tasted like instant potatoes. Waste of $28.00 meal. The worst part of the experience was the service. We had Bri. She had three tables total and was very slow and inattentive. She spent most of her time chatting with a big party instead of checking on her other tables. When she did decide to ask if we needed anything, she had a chill, laid back attitude like serving was an afterthought. There is not enough to bring me back to this place. read more

Did not like anything about this place. Food was overcooked, chicken parm was over fried and tough. Salads were tasteless. Staff was rude and not helpful. The ambiance was ordinary and outdated. I would not recommend going here unless you are anxious to be treated poorly. read more

This place has fantastic tavern food, but more impressive is the incredible ability of the chef with innovative and perfectly done entrees and specials. Currently (2/22) running French specials. I tried coc a vin. It was well balanced and simply perfect. Going back to try some of the others, but if you're in the mood for a great burger or fun app this is the place to go. read more

Nice place with bold/funky decor and good separation between the busy bar and the regular dining area. We've been a few times now for lunch. They offer creative specials in addition to their pretty straight-forward tavern menu. The last time we went, I didn't notice the specials on the blackboard until after I had placed my order and the owner happened to hear me mention the ravioli special that had caught my attention a bit too late. She asked if I'd like to have a small portion made up to go with the burger I had ordered--umm, yes, please!! Now THAT is how exceptional customer service is done! read more

Bartender and wait staff very friendly and informative . Pretzel were a great appetizer, steak tips were a bit undercooked, veggie burger was basically tasteless (need to find a better choice) I (being vegetarian) would love a few more options but I guess it's basically "pub fair". Very clean but a bit on the bright side. I would definitely go back and try again in hopes of a better burger. Loved the tater tots. Beers were cold , that's always a plus for me. read more

Went there for dinner a few weeks ago. The food was above average pub grub. I enjoyed the bar pizza and my wife liked her burger. Only negative was the waiter didn't notice that there was a fly floating in the martini I ordered. Not sure how he missed that -- I saw it the moment he put the glass down. read more

The food and atmosphere are fantastic!! Live music most nights and outdoor seating with heaters! I love the Chichen Satay and the steak fries! You can't those anywhere else. Love it there! The staff is awesome too read more

Food was delicious. Loved the casual fun vibe in the bar. Waitress/Bartender was awesome! Wish I knew her name!

Each month there's cuisine specials from a different country. I've never had a bad meal here. Lori is great! I love the framed prints in the dining room! read more

Nice people, but the food is nothing special, I got the salmon special and it was plain and dry.

The food is always great. There was a problem in the kitchen tonight and the owner handled it personally and with extreme class. I give this place every single star possible. Somewhere Else Tavern is a great hometown restaurant. read more

Been planning a visit to this place to try out their rotating international menu. When we got there apparently that isn't as big a deal as Facebook makes it out to be since they had like one appetizer left and really couldn't see any sign of the international menu as an option. We decided to just go with the flow and order off of the regular menu. My wife got baked stuffed shrimp and I got fish and chips. The waitress wasn't very attentive and we saw people who came in well after us getting their food. Thought maybe the baked stuff took a while so we were patient. When the food came I spot it across the table that it was some crappy food service bake stuffed shrimp that was very pale and not really cooked to a tasty sizzling condition. Tried to make the best of it and her shrimp were actually cold in the middle. My fish and chips were so over cooked that the fish actually became a crunchy jerky like substance. clearly they cooked it way too long trying to get the stuffed shrimp done. There were a few bites that was actually like fish but for the most part it was like a Cheeto. Tried to send the shrimp back which she just grabbed the plate and walked away with no explanation or anything. Came back and drop the plate with no "hope that's better" or apology. It wasn't any better so we pain and left. Don't go. Plenty of people looked happy around us looks like the steak tips are big hit as were a few other things. Maybe they're too ambitious with menu but if they can't put out a good meal they should take it off the menu. Don't go! read more

WOW! I ordered a house burger and almost didn't finish it! It was so good that I did though!! Reasonable prices, wait staff was good too. Glassware and silverware were clean and no chips or bends. The restrooms were clean, as were the tables and seats. The bar looked nice enough, but I don't drink. I ordered a coffee, they made a fresh pot for me!! read more

3 times there and the food is horrible. I have never posted a review before in my life. The meat was rancid.

First timer & had a great experience, good atmosphere, incredible food & friendliest staff. We will definitely be back again.
