The popular haunt for rock and metal,but let's explore what this venue used to be…read more... Welcome to the preserved historic home of the Plymouth Theatre. It opened in November 1928. It hosted acts and short movie performances of the day . It closed in 1965. It reopened in 1967 for a performance by Dean Martin. Over the years it has been a venue for performances of various art styles. Now it's a place for rock and roll music. The theater was designed for the best possible audience at every corner the sound quality is clean and great. It offers two levels. It's a great place to listen to metal music. The service is good with the bar offering a variety of options for drinks. If you want something to drink even water you will have to purchase it. No outside anything. The best is about to begin. The bands are playing, let's get it done!

The palladium used to be my second home. I absolutely adored this venue. Even the staff loved me. I…read moremade hundreds of incredible memories. I started going to shows at age 12, up until a few years ago. I was heading to the bathrooms and saw a friend who was very drunk and looked like he needed a friend. I was 25 at the time. I was there with my now ex boyfriend. My friend dragged me into the men's room, threw me in a stall, closed the door and trapped me. Then he was exposing himself to me and I begged him to stop and to let me go. I was crying for help when one of the staff came in, and was so cruel to me, he wouldn't let me say a word to him, he kicked us both out. I immediately felt embarrassed and nauseated at what happened. I still have night terrors about it. It has taken me this long to actually say something. The man who wouldn't let me tell what happened, and who marched me out the door, was scaring me. I had done nothing wrong. I was concerned for a friend and that got me kicked out of a place that I thought I was safe at. And on my birthday! If that man reads this, I hope he realizes that it was because of the way he treated me that I have never gone back there. If he had just heard me out, and allowed me to explain that I was trapped in that stall begging to get out while my so called friend touched himself in front of me, and allowed me to go back to where my boyfriend was, and finish the show, on my birthday, if he had just listened and not been so nasty to me, I may have felt saved by this cruel staff member, and he would have known how grateful I was that he came barging in, in what I thought was being saved, and I would have felt safe there once more, knowing the staff had my back, and I could continue going to see my favorite bands. The palladium should feel lucky I'm only giving 2 stars rather than one. It wasn't all bad, but that one bad event basically nullified every other event. But women are constantly blamed when stuff like this happens to them. My second home became my nightmare. I can never go back to my happy place. If I did I'd be looking over my shoulder rather than enjoying the show. So thanks for ruining the one place I loved so much.

Vincent's - Meatball Sandwich

I probably never would have found this place on my own, but I'm really glad I tried it!…read more One of my bosses is originally from Worcester, and her daughter was heading home for the weekend, so my boss asked her to stop at Vincent's and grab us some meatball sandwiches for lunch. She had been talking about how amazing their meatball sandwiches were, and since meatball sandwiches are basically my favorite food, I obviously had to try them. Before this, I had never heard of Vincent's. We looked it up and realized it's not really a traditional restaurant. It's a bar that serves food, and apparently their meatball sandwiches are a big thing. Another coworker of mine who is also from Worcester explained that this is a place people go to for drinks and food, and that they have some specific rules when it comes to ordering the sandwiches. When we called, we were told that they do takeout, but you can't actually place a takeout order over the phone. You have to go in and order it. I thought that was a little unusual, but my coworker said that's their normal practice. There is also a three-sandwich limit per person. My bosses daughter went in to order five for the office, so thankfully she had someone with her and they were able to order three each. Apparently, the three-sandwich limit is posted on one of their Google pictures, so I guess if you know, you know. I do wish they had a website or something that clearly explained the takeout process and ordering limits, because if you've never been there, you wouldn't necessarily know any of this. Now for the important part...the sandwich! My bosses daughter had about a 30-35 minute drive back to us, so I honestly expected the sandwich to be pretty cold by the time I got it. It was wrapped in foil, and somehow it was STILL warm when I opened it. I was actually surprised. And let me tell you...this was probably one of the best meatball sandwiches I've ever had. It's definitely different from your typical meatball sub. The meatballs are flat, and instead of a regular torpedo/sub roll, it comes on this thick Italian bread. I honestly didn't know what to expect, but I LOVED it. The combination of the bread and the meatballs was so good that I'm pretty sure I'm going to want my meatball sandwiches this way from now on. I can only imagine how good it would have been if I had eaten it fresh at the bar instead of 35 minutes later. So yes, I completely understand why my boss recommended this place. If I'm ever back in the Worcester area, I will absolutely be stopping at Vincent's. Just make sure you know the ordering rules before you go!

cocktail garden & kitchen is a brand new restaurant and outdoor lounge. the ambiance is cute,…read morethere's an indoor bar with a couple tables and a large outdoor patio area filled with comfy chairs, couches and covered in lights. we came at 10pm on a wednesday, the kitchen was closed but we came for the drinks anyways. they do a great job with the drink presentation, using different presentations with smoke which is entertaining and pretty! their drinks look beautiful but the drinks are very watered down or sweet from the sweet heart and mezcal drinks we tried. for ~$17 each, i loved the presentation but we both didn't feel there was nearly any alcohol in them, either sugary or watery. maybe it's a method for you to order more? mezcal 2.5/10 sweet heart 3/10 although they have a great ambiance and vibe, and fun presentation, since we came for a single good drink, it was lacking. for $17 a drink, the drinks shouldn't be this weak. this is a new place so i'm sure they have some things to work out, and i would highly encourage them to just add more alcohol to their drinks and this would be an ideal place to get after dinner drinks and relax on their outdoor patio. kitchen was closed so can't speak for the food. the neighborhood is very busy and loud, so while there may be plenty of space for an intimate or group conversations, the street is pretty noisy, even on a wednesday. i do feel like they will work this out! tldr; great vibe, great presentation, good service, drinks need more work, located in busy part of city. ambiance: 4/5 food: n/a drinks: 1.4/5 service: 3.5/5 cocktail garden & kitchen: 2.9/5

Food was fine, drinks were good, but didn't have enough ice/weren't cold enough. Service was good,…read morenothing special. The vibe was a little weird. Whole experience was just okay.
