We had the nachos (do yourself a favor and buy only a half order because it's HUGE). They were so good and I didn't even have enough room for more food after that. Service was attentive and good! I got the "Summer Fling" cocktail and it was truly one of the best cocktails I've had in quite sometime. I had a couple of them and honestly, could have continued throwing them down if I knew I didn't need to be in decent shape the next day. The live music was fantastic too. All-in-all, still a cozy and great vibe here. I hope to go there again soon!

We arrived around 3:00 on a Thursday. We were able to get an inside seat. Two people were working and both appeared to be fairly attentive. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. My wife and I both had PBR drafts. My youngest son and I both had Steak Tips and garlic fries. My wife had grilled cheese and my oldest son had fish tacos. Everything was good, fries were extremely garlicky. I wish they would have given more steak. Service was good, food was good, and prices were fair. I would recommend and return.

If you're in Beverly and craving something delightfully different, The Crispy Chicken Cup is worth…read morea stop. These genius handheld cups are made with all white-meat chicken shaped into a crispy, golden cup and filled with creamy mac‑and‑cheese or pasta--you really have to try it to believe it. My Chicken Cup felt perfectly seasoned, hot and crispy on the outside, with warm, creamy comfort tucked inside. It's exactly the sort of playful and indulgent food that hits the spot--and it's surprisingly satisfying for a single small item. In my experience, it cut easily with a plastic knife and melted right in your mouth. The concept itself is brilliantly creative and fun--a handheld mashup of chicken parm meets portable mac‑and‑cheese, presented in a neat little cup. That offbeat charm is what makes this place so memorable. Service pickup was smooth; I was able to grab my order with no fuss. If you like inventive, hearty, and Instagram-ready comfort food with a twist, you'll love this spot. Definitely one of Beverly's most fun and tasty culinary surprises!

I stumbled upon the kitchen spice store where they had a QR code to order the crispy chicken cup…read moreonline to then pick up at the store. It took 25 minutes from the time I placed it so I looked around at nearby stores. I ordered the chicken parm. I received a text after placing the order and once it was ready for pick up. There were multiple options between being made to eat or made to be refrigerator. Another option I can't remember now. The chicken cups are MUCH bigger than expected, I had to split it into two and eat the second half the next day as leftovers so it's easily shareable. The chicken parm cup was nice and hot but the pasta in the middle was cold after the very top layer so I actually had to wait until I got home to heat it up myself which was disappointing. The taste however is REALLY good! I would suggest the pasta be cooked seperate Lu from the chicken because I think the pasta was cold because it was cooked together maybe? I would love to see more options on the menu like chicken pesto pasta.

It's in a great location in downtown Beverly with a large parking lot behind it, so parking was easy. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to expectations. We ordered two appetizers: the calamari and the mushroom arancini. The calamari was the strangest version I've ever had, mixed with jalapeños, arugula, tomatoes, and marinara sauce placed underneath. The combination didn't really work, and I wasn't a fan of the sauce being on the bottom instead of on the side.The arancini was better, but still odd. It was served over some kind of Alfredo sauce, which again felt unnecessary. It seems like this place really likes putting sauce on the bottom of dishes, and it didn't enhance the food. The real highlight of the night was the drinks. We both ordered espresso martinis, and they were honestly the best espresso martinis I've ever had. There were several other cocktails that looked great as well, so we'll definitely be back to try more drinks. Overall, the food was underwhelming and didn't meet my expectations. I wouldn't come back for the food, as their takes on classic dishes just didn't work for me. That said, if you're looking for great cocktails, Soma is absolutely worth it, especially for the espresso martinis. Get dinner elsewhere in Beverly and stop by Soma for drinks!

The loaded tots looked so good but flavor fell flat. It needed some zing to it. More flavorful cheese sauce, onion/chive, something was missing. Tots were super crispy though we loved that! Had the boneless wings been cooked less they would have been great. They were burnt in areas and those parts were inedible. The bbq sauce was pretty much ketchup with added vinegar. The Parmesan sauce was the highlight of our meal. The soda was totally flat. In future I'd buy a bottled beer here. Super vibe and great country music here!

Four stars. After…read morewandering around Salem for a while, Witchside Tavern ended up being exactly what we were looking for. The place is bright, clean, and has a modern aesthetic without feeling like it was designed solely for Instagram. It just feels comfortable. The staff were friendly from the start and made us feel welcome, which goes a long way. I ordered the Cali Smash burger, and it was a winner. The ingredients actually tasted fresh, especially the avocado, and I wasn't sure how I'd feel about the fried egg, but it worked surprisingly well. Add the Witchside sauce and everything came together better than I expected. It was also big enough that I eventually gave up trying to eat it like a civilized human being and finished it with a fork. No shame. Both of my kids ordered the fried shrimp platters and absolutely demolished them. That's usually the best review you're going to get from kids. Not a single complaint, no leftovers, and they were still talking about how good the shrimp was afterward. The menu has plenty of options, the food came out fresh, and the whole place has a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Salem has no shortage of places competing for your attention, but Witchside Tavern is one I'd happily come back to. Sometimes you just want a good meal without a fog machine, a crystal ball, or someone trying to sell you a haunted spoon.

I'm pretty consistent in ordering the athena bowl with rare salmon, and they always get it right (not everyone does!). They also have great wings and burgers. Also great bartenders and servers, and they outdid themselves recently when we ordered takeout, usual fare, and the salmon was overcooked (gasp). When I called them to let them know, not that i really expected them to do anything, it seems the order-taker had erroneously said "well cooked," hence the clear error. They credited us for the entire order, which far exceeded expectation - very classy!! Well played, Rev Kitchen! :)

We went to Boston to get our Global Entry taken care of, and thought why not so here we are. Full restaurant and bar greets us. Indoor, covered and protected outdoor seating.

Appetizers were delicious and we could have probably been fine with that, but with Gf options and wanting to try more we over ordered. Orders pizza to take out for later. It was good, I wonder if it would have been better fresh out of the oven, which is why it didn't get the 5 star. We will be back great find.

We just went in and dropped a worthy $80 on lunch - 2 tequila mules, a special of buffalo bites (if u are lucky and these are on special again - order them!). Chicken kabob sandwich - juicy, perfectly grilled chicken and my husband got the mouth-watering pastrami sandwich. We packed half of it up for dinner tonight. I only gave 4 stars due to the lousy, noisy, raunchy bar flies. They couldn't care less about other customers as they were shouting and cussing away. Having a conversation with my husband was impossible. The bartender, who was 5 stars in her service to us, attempted to remind these people to stop yelling. I understand being a local, as I am one, and it makes me want to keep my favorite places in business. However, disruptive and rude bar flies should be shut out ff earlier and asked to leave or at the very least pipe down. Ultimately, I highly recommend anyone local or out of town to try The Tin Whistle for the food and service. Maybe try one of the tall comfy wooden booths would make for a better atmosphere.
