Comfortable spot, newly remodeled. The menu isn't large, it's just right, and it's loaded with great options, and nice craft beers. We ordered the crispy brussel sprouts, which were roasted beautifully with proscuitto (overall, a little salty, but still really good). The bread was super fresh and comes with butter and with roasted garlic which is a nice touch. The pork chop was cooked perfectly, and you get a nice wood fire smoke flavor because of how they prepare it. The beignets were dynamite for dessert. Our server was awesome, very helpful and friendly. The service was outstanding. This is a great spot. They've been in business for a while, and I can see why!

We have been to Arturo's a few times over the last year and went back last week for a quick bite coming away with the same impression: solid traditional italian food in a pleasant environment. We shared a Caesar salad and a spicy sausage and peppers pizza with italian beer and red wine, and all were good. I have had better pizza doe with more flavor in the crust, but the toppings were tasty. The atmosphere in the large restaurant is pleasant, but with the tall ceilings and the bright ceiling lights it not a cozy atmosphere. Service was good, and the restaurant seems well managed. Easy parking. Altogether a very good value at less than $50 for our whole midweek dinner, considering how many restaurants out there think they can justify $30 main course prices. We did not try the pasta dishes, but will do so another time.

We went to willies with 3 couples for some birthday celebrations. We stuffed ourselves silly with amazing appetizers, sushi, seafood, steaks and deserts. The lobster bomb (avocado stuffed with lobster and drizzled in sauce) won "appetizer of the century" I enjoyed a kona coffee steak (cooked perfectly) and my wife loved her swordfish. We finished off the night with some amazing carrot cake and an Irish coffee.
All 6 really enjoyed our meals and apps and our server Nancy made us feel right at home.

Reviewed By CaseyfromBoston - Home Usa
Playful place with better-than-average, but not world-class espresso. Lots of choices of fattening baked goods and other breakfast items, plus all manner of "wellness" soaps and other nonsense in a coffee shop. Seems to emphasize flavored, iced, and other abstractions of the pure thing, but certainly head and shoulders better than Starmuck.
5. Festive Breads Bakery & Cafe

Reviewed By Dick L - Venice, Florida
This small European style bakery / lunch restaurant is a worthwhile destination in a small shopping center in a small town. The bakery provides the staple for the most delicious sandwiches you can find in Central Mass. The combinations of meats, fish, cheese and veggies are fresh and plentiful and the owner / chef is ready and willing to help you "design" your own - although her creative offerings are awesome.

7. Armeno Coffee Roasters
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 15 reviews
Armeno Coffee Roasters is an independently owned coffee company located in the heart of Central Massachusetts since 1994. We roast only mid-crop, 100% Arabica beans from around the world. We specialize in providing only the finest, freshest coffees available. By roasting daily, we’re able to fill-to-order to ensure freshness and taste. Unsure where to start? Try a cup of our hot coffee brewed to sample for the day, grab a delicious cold brew to go, or let our knowledgeable staff guide you to the best beans to suit your taste. Wandering the mill to view the roaster and our temperature-controlled wine room is highly encouraged, but no seating or cafe space available. Don't be afraid to say hi! We're friendly (when we've had our coffee).

This is a place to buy coffee beans, not to get a cuppa (although they usually have a thermos of one of their coffees that you can try). Excellent selection of beans, they will grind them to order for you.

I remember when they first opened! My son had their cupcakes for his birthday, and loves their chocolate batter AND their cakepops. They also serve Emak and Bolio icecream. The place is so cute. And their cupcakes are moist, and rich and decadent. Beautiful too!

This place does a lot of things right. Lots of servers translates into good and fast service... good chow, fairly priced... and excellent Margaritas. Enjoyed a nice meal with great service from Carlos.
