Reviews for The Pleasant Cafe in Maynard, MA
Maynard landmark with a great atmosphere, top notch beer list, and great cocktails mixed with yummy pub grub. Their Maple Old... Fashioned is above what you normally get at some other pubs. Their bartender knows what she is doing. Love the PC. Read more
Local pub with chic vibes, basic choices in food & beers on tap at overpriced rates. The only place in town (I've found so far)... that is open later than 10p - which is appreciated hence the 4/5 marking. I'd recommend this place as a drinks & apps pub vs. arestaurant to get dinner at. You'll find the same good quality at a much more affordable rate at the 110 grill up the road. Likemany others, I find the self-service app to be a bit annoying especially when it asks me to tip at the end of my visit. Tip forwhat? There's no waiter or waitress, who am I tipping? Still a great spot to meet up with a friend to catch up. Read more
Very generous serving sizes. We've enjoyed everything we've tried. Entire family loves the fried pickles - I would come back... weekly just for them! Read more
One star is for the comfortable outdoor seating area and the other for the friendly employees (although we had very little... contact with them). I did not enjoy anything else about my visit. Their ordering system is the WORST. I really struggled withthe QR code and online ordering. A paper menu or ordering with a person is not an option - and I asked after struggling with theQR code. So you don't really have a server who interacts with you in the traditional sense. They just shuttle the stuff youorder yourself to the table. The food was mediocre at best - the onion straws were salty, greasy and soggy, the fried fish wasslightly undercooked. Two people in our party were served much quicker, and their food was cold by the time the rest of theorder got there. I also like my soda a specific way, and if there was an option to customize, I didn't find it. I would have hadto send it back after it got to my table, so I just didn't say anything. So unless you are tech savvy AND want to have veryminimal contact with the employees, this place isn't for you. Read more
They are so incredibly nice here and the food was good. They were out of the clam chowder, which we ordered online and they... called me right away to let me know. Great service! Read more
This place has a nice location in downtown and some outdoor seating. The bar reminded me of an old Boston pub. The food was... pretty good but I thought had a high price markup for just pub food and the beer seemed a little flat. Read more
Faboosh! We came here for a quick lunch and had the French dip. It was wonderful. Especially with the fried Brussels sprouts... with bacon aioli! We enjoyed the music, classic cars on the TV and the ability to play keno. It's trendy and cool anddefinitely a place we will come to again. Next time we will bring some friends! Read more
Our Band played there last Friday night. We were warmly welcomed. It was a fun night. Good food, fast service and a warm... atmosphere. Very good. Thank you Read more
