Friendly tavern with good food. Super clean, nice vibe. You can get a table at a booth, high top or sit at the bar and watch sports on TV. Service is prompt. Cheeseburger was great! Server was polite and service was fast. Definitely recommended. Parking is limited in the area. You can drive up Main Street and park on the street, walking about a block back to the tavern. read more

Solid pub food that sated our hunger after a swim at Walden. Service was attentive and pretty nice ambiance for a tavern. Surprise hit was the fried pickles that were lightly battered and the buffalo chicken mac n' cheese special that had buffalo tenders on top of a cavatappi pasta that had a sort of a fancy take on a kraft mac n' cheese. Smashburger was quite tasty, thick bacon and decent special sauce -- fries were definitely frozen but okay. Only comment is the booth we were in had a really uncomfortable sunken in bench on one side that definitely needed some repair. Otherwise would return after another Walden visit. read more

Ended up here completely by accident - my friend and I were trying to go to a place next door but it was closed so we stumbled into the Tavern. We ended up having a very pleasant experience! The waiter was very attentive and had a good sense of humor, and the food was very good. Very good quality and exceptional taste for a classic tavern. I got a caprese sandwich with a side salad and my friend picked the smash burger with fries. My caprese sandwich was very good, the crispy chicken was cooked perfectly and the prosciutto was very fresh. The only thing I would do less of is the aragula, but that is a personal preference. My Caesar salad was great. My friend enjoyed her smash burger as well. Very good spot for food in the Concord area, and well priced. read more

Four visits in four weeks! I guess West Village Tavern was the winner of our loyalty during our brief stop here in the Bedford area! My wife and I stopped in between normal meal services sitting at the bar. I regret I do not recall the bartender's name; however, she has waited on us before and was perfect yet again! I ordered their Caesar salad, adding blackened salmon, rare, and my wife ordered their pepperoni pizza. Happily, I must report that my salmon was actually cooked rare! It was delicious! A wonderful addition to a Caesar salad. My wife's pizza was perfectly cooked and delicious as well! Not sure if or when we will be back in this area, but we do know we will be stopping here if we return. read more

Practically in my backyard growing up was the 99 restaurant, a fun family dining eatery that a few years ago was replaced by West Village Tavern. The interior is still very similar as far as the layout, but obviously a whole new coat of paint and decor instead. It almost reminds me a bit of a seafaring restaurant, but still not that different from how the 99 was with the size, walls, booths, hallways, etc. But there are other 99s and this new restaurant is pretty great overall, especially for a wonderfully flavorful, hearty burger and fries. I also had some of a companion's order, this interesting sesame chicken dish with seaweed salad and a half avocado filled with sauce, which was different and I'm not really sure why it was there, much as I like avocado. The chicken tasted great and was the highlight of that dish. The menu is nice and varied, so I'd be curious to try some of their other dishes, like the pizza. The service is great even when it's busy, and it's a pretty comfortable atmosphere. read more

Finally got to stop in here for lunch recently. I was looking for a place that had a decent kids menu, and they have a really good one. For the kiddo, we got the steak tips, which came with fries and broccoli. I got the chicken Cesar salad with pretzel and beer cheese. The staff were fantastic, very attentive and accommodating. I will defo be back! read more

West Village Tavern serves mostly American food with the occasional fusion dishes. I ordered the sesame chicken dish. It had about 8 or so pieces of chicken cut the way it would at a Chinese restaurant. The sauce was tangy and had a tiny bit of heat from the sweet chili. The white rice was adorned in sesame seeds and there was a seaweed salad as well as half an avocado which appeared to be a little bit charred and had a teriyaki/soy sauce in it with more sesame seeds. I enjoy avocado but the char took away from it. Overall, a nice dish. I'd recommend trying it out. I ordered out with a loved one on. a Friday and it was packed! read more

They were very accommodating to 16 of us -- a table for 8 and two adjacent booths were perfect. Excellent service and food with a gourmet spin which was a nice surprise. I got an Oktoberfest special, Pork Schnitzel with Dijon gravy -- spectacular, and only $20.50 with roasted potatoes and peas! read more

me and some of my family came here for lunch, and it was pretty good. i got the smash burger, which was actually amazing. the special sauce was a peppercorn type sauce & had caramelized onions-and it was very good. couple people got the fish tacos, which they really liked. the chicken piccata was a miss-chicken had a weird rubbery texture to it. and the regular burgers were cooked nice. the key lime pie had a weird aftertaste & the cookie skillet was good, could use more icecream though. our waiter was super friendly in the beginning (which is a great vibe to have) when we first sat down, and then he just ended up being wicked rude with a bad attitude and not friendly at all. made us all feel pretty uncomfortable. other than the service, i would say to give the food a try. read more

The food is solid and the staff is always friendly. It's our go to spot when we don't feel like cooking and want something casual. The chicken skewers are my favorite - I wish they would have those all year round. read more

Came here after a day exploring Concord and surrounding areas. The restaurant is fairly cute and cozy. You will likely wait for a table as it was fairly busy on a Friday evening, though it seemed like much less of a wait than other nearby restaurants. The food was very tasty and fresh. A give it only three stars based on a few factors. The food was good, but certainly overpriced. You can tell they are attempting to go for an upscale feel, but I think they'd do better if they were just more down to earth. Second, the service was incredibly slow. Our server was very nice, but it took honestly a ridiculous amount of time between each step of the process. From getting drinks to ordering food and getting the food and then, worst of all, paying for the meal. We eventually had to go find someone at the front to tell them we were waiting to pay so we could leave. Especially if you're going for upscale vibes, service needs to improve dramatically. For the food itself, would consider visiting again if in the area, but improvements in the other areas would help them greatly. read more

5 stars all around for this place! We tried a cheese pizza, so yummy & fresh! We loved the sauce & dough! We also got the chicken parm sandwich & smashburger which were both cooked to perfection. We brought our 22 month old daughter and were pleasantly suprised at how child friendly & accommodating the staff & restaurant was without making the place feel chaotic. We will definitely return. PS. Drinks were fantastic read more

Not a bad dinner out. This was previously a 99 restaurant and still has those bones. Food and service were good, and prices seemed fair. Would definitely come back again read more

The food is decent but I feel as though it's a hit or miss. I've eaten there before and the food has been fantastic and there have been times where the food was not up the par. I also wish they had not changed their menu. Especially their turkey dinner because who wants a baked potato with a turkey dinner? Just my opinion, but they used to be mashed potatoes, which was significantly better! The staff is nice and friendly and I would definitely recommend giving West Village Tavern a try! read more

We started off our evening with a drink at the bar. Service was amazing considering the restaurant and bar were both packed. We had 7:00 reservations and were seated exactly at 7. The Smash Burger was fantastic and plentiful. I took half mine home, so much food. Parking was a bit hard to find, but definitely worth it. read more

Consistently awesome food and service. This is how you do it. Best restaurant in Concord and it's not even close!!!

My friend and I headed to West Village Tavern for lunch after checking out the Concord Museum. I ordered the following for apps: nachos - they gave a generous portion with tons of chips and toppings. Had to take some back home as it was too good to throw out. Chips were fresh and crispy, and would rate this as 8.5/10. for entree: steak tips - the marinade was on point. I had left overs to bring back and my mom took a couple of bites and loved it. Mashed potatoes was decent, just needed a bit more seasoning. The asparagus was just a bit sad looking like it was overcooked but overall taste was there. Will rate this meal as 8/10. for dessert: churro donuts - it wasn't what I expected in terms of taste. There was a kick to the bite and I can't decide if I like it or not. Rating is 6/10. Service was great. There's only street parking but we lucked out. Overall will recommend :) read more

Dick N is really rooting for this place to survive, but they have a lot of work to do. They're at a goldmine location. People are starving for a place to grab a burger, steak, fancy salad, etc and some drinks at a reasonable cost (reasonable cost is certainly relative these days at all restaurants). Somehow I think that West Village is trying to be too much. The walk the line of filling the gap left by the 99 as the local bar to grab apps and beers, but at the same time trying to compete with 80 Thoreau, Woods Hill, and Nosh. They've got $95 glasses of whiskey while maintaining the same cheesy 99 decor. So are you fancy and pretentious or are you cookie cutter and down to earth? They need to find that middle ground. We've had some good meals there. Others so-so at best. I wouldn't want to be in the restaurant biz right now with inflation and labor issues, but that does not excuse West End from providing good service. Servers are friendly, but not trained to take feedback. Our last meal came with a kids burger ($15 w/choc milk) charred to hockey=puck-like texture, and baked haddock that got a overdose of salt Mrs Dick Nipples favorite dish and she was unable to eat it). Hey, it happens. But when you bring it to the servers attention and they can only offer an, "Ok, I'll let 'them' know'", something is not right. For the prices being charged, I'd expect that a manager would be ensuring all guests are relatively happy. I've never seen a manager on the floor here. The bar is not a bad place to hang out. But they missed out when the closed off the lounge area which now feels boxed in. Generally, people sitting in the lounge are ok being near the bar area, and appreciate having tv's with the game (like the 99). You can't get into Karma or Nosh (Nosh sets a low bar) on a Saturday at 6:30 pm. But we walked right into West Village and were sat immediately. There should be people lined up to eat here (especially with Chang An closing down). 2.5 stars but I rounded it up to a 3 as I'm hopeful West End can figure it out for their own good, the good of the people, the town of Concord, and for people everywhere who like to eat and drink. read more

Food was not exceptional. Food prices were about average. Drink prices were exceptionally high. My tap ale Main Lunch was $13.00! That's about $5.00 more than other similar restaurants. Mixed drinks are more typically priced at around $15.00. Nothing special about ambience. Service was excellent. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

Amber and Donna are the best, they took such good care of us, we ate every bite of out beet and arugula salad and our dumplings. The drinks were also amazing. As a French Canadian I will totally back up the maple old fashioned, it was absolutely up to my standards! read more

Laid back, casual dining spot in west concord. We always see people coming out with pizzas to-go but hesitant to order since we haven't seen pictures/reviews on the pizza but it ended up being pretty good! We preferred the fig and prosciutto over the ricotta and meatball. Good flavor on the boneless buffalo wings. Good crunch and seasoning on the fried pickles. Friendly waiter named Thiago. Will come back again ! read more

the food and atmosphere are great. Barbara is awesome very friendly. Highly recommend the steak tips.

We visit every week and the service and food are both always amazing! The butternut squash ravioli are FANTASTIC!

This is the second time that we have ord from here in the past week. The food is excellent! The Pan-Seared Haddock was fresh, the sweet potatoes and spinach that came with it, were perfect! The only thing that we didn't get was the echo how do you spell beurre blanc sauce over the haddock, but it was great without it, so, we didn't mind. (The meal was not as hot or warm as I would have expected, but I believe that was the Dasher's fault, not the restaurant's, so I am still giving them a 5 star review)! The Honey Chicken Salad, reminds me of a similar salad that Joes American Bar and Grill used to serve, and is delicious! I am happy to have found it again, as it was my favorite! As I am ordering through DoorDash, I cannot speak to the ambiance, or the service, but I have heard great things! read more

Picked up a couple of salads to go for the spouse and I. So disappointed they were absolute garbage and costed $19 per salad. West village, please pick a lane. Offer cheap food for low prices or quality food for what you're charging. Honestly 0/10, recommend avoiding. read more

"A pretentious, overpriced venue with delusions of being upscale." As stated before by two different people, I agree 100% that The West Village Tavern in West Concord is just that. This is a bad start. The prices are outrageous, greedy and quite frankly a robbery. You could get a burger for less at 80 Thoreau, the fine dining restaurant in the center of town. Even though they were already expensive, in the last month they've raised prices by $5.00. Drinks are a robbery, appetizers are a robbery, meals are a robbery. At least the 99 was economical and lasted over 20 years for a reason. If it weren't for covid, it would probably still be there. The quality of the food is sub par. They charge more than twice the amount they should. Instead of leaving satisfied, I just feel like my wallet took a major hit and honestly this place pisses me off. Their food tastes like p*ss. This is West Concord - not down town Boston in the Back Bay for Christ's sake. Their poor star average will only keep getting lower, and management needs to make some changes before they too go out of business. Greed is gross, and I hope a better place comes to take their place. We deserve better than this. The managers remarks to people who paid to eat here - are down right rude, aggressive and a prime example of how a manager should NOT speak to a paying customer. I'm not believing the inflation excuse, as there are plenty of restaurants that actually charge fair prices and are doing better than this place. A nasty manager is a sign of what's to come. I've worked in several restaurants for over 20 years, so I know what I'm talking about. I am not interested in what the manager/greedy owner has to say, and I hope they save their ego and decide not to respond to my review. It won't change my opinion. Get some humility. read more

Had a great dinner here with 4 total guests on a Thurs in December 2023. Hostess and staff were exceptionally friendly and great. Food was lovely ; not overworked, just great new-American cuisine. The big downside for our dinner, and this is something I think Management could easily correct, is that when we sat in a booth, the patrons behind us could not move a muscle without us feeling their every maneuver! A particle board in between the cubbies would probably suffice. Nitpicky, perhaps, but I was there eating a nice dinner and that was horribly annoying. Thank you for an overall nice experience. read more

I ordered a cosmopolitan martini with Ketel One and was charged $18.00. I order the same drink at upscale restaurants for no more than $15.00. I would recommend the restaurant but will not order a cocktail with dinner in the future. read more

Server was nice but she came over every 20 minutes. I got a margarita with casamigos blanco and it was 21$ PER DRINK. INSANE. The ambiance was empty and quiet. It seems nice but they need to lower their prices if they are going to last in this area. I'm a bartender in Boston and we don't even charge 21$ for a marg with casa. Still tipped over 20% because our server doesn't deserve to suffer the consequences of the prices of the drinks. Food was delicious, but still can't get over the price of the drinks. read more

3rd visit and just not better. Server was great . Burger amazing but expensive and the Chicken salad. In the huge shell was way to salty. It didn't get eaten. Fried fish Sandwhich mediocre at best. Beer a couple bucks more than other local spots but ice cold and refreshing. The booths as mentioned in other reviews are not comfortable and the room next to the bar is definitely claustrophobic. I gave it three tries but it came up consistently mediocre and expensive. read more

First time here, got a To-Go order on a beautiful sunny Fall Sunday. Mentioning the weather because I've seen reviews complaining about the wait, and husband told me it was pretty empty @ 2.15+-p.m. Glad to read they are often packed, they've earned it if all the food is as good as we ordered. Yum! So, the order: Caesar Salad, Power Lunch, Pan Blackened Salmon. All delicious! In addition to the salad, my husband had the Salmon and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He wasn't quite sure what the sides were comprised of, all he knew was it was delicious (and for the record, it was a blend of arugula, tomato, avocado, and citrus vinaigrette. The other side was pineapple salsa). I had the power lunch and do I feel healthy! It was very good, I chose the vinaigrette they mentioned in the description out of the list of dressings available. So glad I did, very refreshing! The healthy blend of spinach, baby kale, shaved Brussels, pistachios, chopped tomatoes (ok, mine were halved cherry/grape tomatoes - still good!) quinoa, feta cheese (and just the right amount). Perfect, especially if you're trying to be "good" ;-) The only staff my husband had any contact with was at the front, he didn't catch her name but he said she was very nice, very friendly. We are both glad we chose West Village Tavern today and will definitely be returning! Thank you WVT for ending our day on a high note, appreciate it! read more

Street parking needs to be addressed, having someone who has difficulty walking and street parking is bad enough. The location is on a corner and the traffic light makes it hard to find the one and only parking spot. Entering is even more of a challenge, luckily the restaurant across the street had a handicap spot. Upon arriving, there is a handicap entrance, but wasn't really clear where it was located. But one step up to the entrance was easily accessible. Seated at the front of the restaurant, was nice but seeing all enter and hear the loudness of the bar was a bit much. But I digress, on to the restaurant review! Appetizers were searched out, three menus, one for food, one for cocktails the last for the specials. Order placed: clam chowder, golden chicken tenders. Main course of fish and chips and a chicken sandwich. Presentation was quite desirable. Wait staff had to be asked to refill the pepper mill. Busy night. Very accommodating. Heavy on the fries, (for both the sandwich and the fish and chips) fish was a tad watery, but still tasty. Chicken sandwich was enjoyed. Steak knife could have been used to cut it, minor detail. No dessert. Might go back, knowing what we know now. read more
