Outdoors is dog friendly and I made some furry friends while sitting out for a drink! The German style beers they have on tap included some unique finds and some styles you don't see too often. Bartenders were very friendly and helpful when I was trying to decide what to get, as lagers and ales are not my usual go tos but made up the majority of the offerings. I got the Salem Ale, a helles style, in a half pour- I love that they offer this smaller size since their other glasses are absolutely massive! This was an easy drinking, smooth beer with low hops, just what I wanted for a hot summer day when I only had limited time to spend here. My drinking partner also enjoyed their selection, and we really enjoyed the location. Would love to go back, very chill vibes and the people there were all so friendly and happy, patrons and employees alike - a rare occurrence in Massachusetts!

I liked the beer, very solid red ale and dunkel selections. The water view from the patio tables is…read moreexcellent and provides a nice breeze. Meanwhile, the Biergarten itself is basically a kids playground, which may be bad or good, depends on what you're looking for.... The food, well maybe some of it is nice, but we got the smoked trout spread and it wasn't for us. Mostly creamy (edited: owner says no mayo), no clear fish flakes, small arrangement with a few crostini and cornichons. Very disappointed, especially for the price. So overall, we'll try again, not everything works, but we'll stick to the good beer and German food options.

Whenever we are at the mall we make it a point to stop at Pretzelmaker to pick up a snack while we…read morefinish our shopping. Since we were at the Northshore Mall we stopped at this location and grabbed a large pretzel bites as well as a pair of smoothies. Both of the items were made right and the staff here was very pleasant. The only critique was that the employees here were a tad slow, but we were in no true rush to leave the mall. In the end we enjoyed our shopping snack and will be back in the future to stuff or faces again.

Prices were extremely reasonable with a breakfast coming out to about $13 and the employees behind the counter were super friendly and nice. The breakfast was delicious and a great portion for the price. My partner who has not eaten an egg in about 20 years worked up the courage to try this one and LOVED it which was as a huge win as he now knows he does like eggs! I personally enjoyed the beans and sausage, which definitely were just as good as what I've had in Ireland. The restaurant was relatively quiet when we went, but there were still a handful of regulars there. There was also Irish session happening around noon, which we stayed for part of and it was nice as well.

First off- hectic location due to a shared parking lot area in a industrial area. Not enough parking! Also, small venue inside. It was plenty for this Saturday afternoon but if they run an event it must be shoulder to shoulder. Awesome graffiti on the back wall but missed opportunity in their plain bathrooms. Shuffleboards and games are always a win. Small merch corner. The true win here... the bartender! He was personable, outgoing, loud and downright having fun! He spread the vibe. He was super nice to our kids, even letting our little guy get a little tour. Bent was a great time!
