We Will Miss Tom's Tavern in Wrentham, MA

Article by Eric H.

Tom's Tavern, a long-time favorite local restaurant in Wrentham, MA, for the past three decades, closed its doors last Saturday, according to the Attleboro Sun Chronicle.

A classic roadside restaurant/bar, Tom's Tavern looked slightly menacing from the outside -- with its dive-like, rather drab look and motorcycles out front -- but once inside, everyone from the drinking crowd to families coexisted peacefully with the very friendly staff. Fresh seafood and a good variety of beer were signatures at Tom's Tavern, along with the knack of making a fantastic burger. It appears that the closing had more to do with management and debt conflicts rather than a poor economy, according to the Sun Chronicle. Tom's still drew a great crowd despite the recession.

We will miss this great local restaurant and bar -- and the air hockey game, too! Thanks for all the years of dining excellence, Tom's Tavern.

Prince Pizzeria in Saugus, MA: A Timeless, Fun Dining Tradition


Article and photo by Eric H.
On the outside, Prince Pizzeria in Saugus, MA, captures your attention instantly with a huge, "Leaning Tower of Pizza" sign -- a takeoff on the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. Inside the restaurant, Prince Pizzeria captures your attention even more with delicious Italian-style pizza and pasta, colorful dining rooms, a friendly, attentive staff and very reasonable prices. Our favorite pizza isn't even listed on the menu: the "Margarita," a tangy blend of cheese and tomato that was popular in the 1970s and 1980s at Prince that you can still order today. A timeless tradition since 1961, it's easy to see why the children of grandparents and parents continue the tradition of eating at the Prince. We are one such family that not only loves the "Leaning Tower" sign and the pizza, but also the feeling of eating at a restaurant that maintains it old-fashioned values, prices and atmosphere. Prince Pizzeria is simply one of our favorite places to eat in the Boston area. We heartily recommend dining here during your New England travel, especially families looking for a fun place to dine!
