Why?

I agree! My husband spent a month and a half there, not too long ago because he suffered a stroke and had other medical issues. The most I paid in one day was eight dollars, and that was just for one day. Not to mention I have children that had appointments there, so a couple days I had to pay to park twice. -It wasn’t until a couple days before he was discharged that I learned that if you go to valet, you could pay for a week, which would’ve been significantly cheaper. Some days I wouldn’t even visit because I couldn’t afford it. It definitely is a financial burden on some and it’s unfortunate.

Just last week I heard the term "Geriatric millenial" for the first time and I died a little inside.

Silhouette -> Vincent's Bar or Model -> Ralphs

🤣😂

Thanks everyone! I used to work in Boston and tried to support local businesses. I’m actually finding Worcester has more and better ethnic food than Boston did, which is awesome.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner is too much?

Who hurt you?

I'm usually one of those GAs (grumpy assholes) who was prepared to respond with some bullshit snarky response, but your itinerary was so damn good I've packed that away (will save it for when the incessant, relentless and annoying AF fireworks begin in a couple months).

In the meantime, yeah, Worcester does have some cool shit to do for an out of towner.

Add in the Worcester Historical museum, swap out Armsby Abby for the Boulevard Diner is $$ is tight, and avoid Worcester if there is still snow on the ground and Kelly Square AT ALL TIMES, and you're good to go.

Excellent response. Would just add the Worcester Art Museum and push off a visit until later March, early spring as Worcester roads with snow banks still abounding is a colossal pain in the ass to drive around.

HUGE drag.

Coney island for cheap dogs. Ralphs diner for cheap burgers/dogs/chili for dinner.

Bennies at the summit is a cheap little spot with sandwiches and good entrees.

Im not personally a fan of Quinns on West Boylston st, but they list deals every day on their site.

Also Ready set pizza on west boylston st is inexpensive and always open late.

I use fb marketplace, it tends to have the widest audience and theres the next level verification if youre smart enough to recognize a profile isnt legit vs whoever on craigslist might message you.

As a buyer, I always check CL and OfferUp ... but usually end up going with eBay

Ahh gotcha. For whatever reason there’s a curse on that location. No one’s made it there

My Sisters Crawfish II if you love viet food and who doesn’t love viet food???

I’m specifically talking the west side.

I guess maybe what I miss about cafe espresso was that it was consistently good and that parking lot made it far easier for take out than trying to get takeout from Mare or Russo’s.

We tried blacksheep over the weekend. We did take out and everything was cold (despite prompt pick up and a 3 min drive home. Serving sizes are small. The carrot cake was abysmal.

West side bbq is equal to if not better.

I’m sticking with my original thought that we now have 3 mediocre options for BBQ on the west side - feels a bit saturated.

That would be nice but at the same time even worse because some kids would get that added enrichment and many others would not. I get the idea behind it but it shouldn’t be a thing. If they want to offer additional learning opportunities there are better ways to ensure they are delivered effectively.
