Good place where every one was friendly

Make sure you stay in the good part of town.
In a nutshell
Great place to go to do stuff, live and be merry.
garridogal Says: I'm surprised I haven't seen another tip on this museum here. (Unless it's here and I just haven't found it.) This is a very nice little museum with some very nice pieces in it including works by El Greco, Monet, Kandinsky and even a Rembrandt. We saw an exhibit of...
Phildagr8 Says: This is a cool place to check out. This place is like a mini-zoo/planetarium/artsy-fartsy culturistic place to go. There is a zoo section with an area of snowy owls, red fox, river otters, bobcats, mountain lion (I don't know if there's more than 1), and polar bears.Inside...

Tweed's Pub & restaurant: Tweed's Pub & restaurant
travelplans777 Says: The CBC - Fresh chicken breast deep fries 'til golden & crispy, topped with melted cheddar cheese and bacon strips. Served on a bulkie roll with lettuce, tomato and a side of mayo. $6.99. $1.00 more if you wants chips or french fries. I never ask for chips or fries but...
Sole Proprietor: The Sole Place To Go!
BigBlueOne Says: Traditionally upscale seafood restaurant. The ambience fits very nicely with what its trying to be. I had the steamed lobster. While it was good the appetizers were better (we tried almost all of them). Pretty good wine list for a seafood joint as well.
The Sole Proprietor: Interesting and tasty Seafood
garridogal Says: We sat at the bar here, had drinks and sampled some of the fare. This restaurant has some really interesting dishes and appetizers. Really enjoyed the food, atmosphere and the Bloody Mary's which are served with a jumbo shrimp for a garnish. Yum! We split a Tuna Sashimi...
Bagel Time: The Best Bagels in a 60 mile radius!
Phildagr8 Says: These bagels are made the old fashion way... they're kettled ( boiled). By submerging the dough in boiling water, it seals in the moisture and gives them a shine. Their bagels meet the "requisite weight minimum" of 4 ounces, and their size shows it! These bagels "totally...
The Sole Proprieter: Don't Miss the Fresh Seafood!
Phildagr8 Says: This place is probably in the Top 5 restaurants of this town. This has the freshest fish in town, and they also have a crab-fest once a year (when its in season).Parking is limited so get there early. This place has a bar where you can get made-to-order food, and the alcohol...
Irish Times, Main St: Excellent Watering Hole
erinwink Says: Irish Times is one of the greatest bars in Worcester. Centrally located on Main St, it is near most major hotels. Definitely stop by for a good time with good food, drinks, and locals. Also, there is usually live entertainment on weekends.
"The movie theater" of Worcester: Get out and see a movie!
Phildagr8 Says: You can easily do the traditional "dinner and a movie" date...and then whatever, in Worcester. The theater is north of the Greendale Mall, and they have plenty of individual theaters to choose from. I over-dressed for the movie, but not for dinner, as you'll see below.

vrage Says: This is a view from Bancroft towers, you can see most of the city from here.Cars, of course -traffic is only bad around school time, also at 9 or 5.

In the Outlets you can find plenty of specialty food stores and restaurants.

One thing about Worcester is it is very cultured as far as mixed nationalies and such. There is pretty much an even spread about all types of people.
Here is the new expanded library that was just put up across the street from my work.

zemra406 Says: What a nice review you posted! While many of your comments may hold some truth, you obviously haven't stuck around long enough. You would see that there is plenty of charm and class, and lots of fun places to go if you know where they are ...

Not to say there are any 'tourist traps' around Worcester, but you have to be careful in some areas. For example: Elm park is lovely, within 1 mile you can dine at a *5 star restaurant, attend a leading college, view mansions in the salsibury area, or get mugged, your car stolen, or buy crack from someone who can't even speak english.
This for example is Bacroft tower which used to be a nice park with gesse and such, but note the bars on the windows and blue spray paint vandalism :(

Luggage and bags: While in New England you can try 'Candle Pin' bowling.
The Pins are much skinnier and the ball fits in the palm of your hand. Look, even a 2 year old can do it!
Updated Aug 25, 2002
KarenandCory Says: Candlepin bowling, popular in New England, was invented in Worcester in 1880. Candlepin bowling balls are smaller than traditional bowling balls and have no holes. The pins are also smaller and therefore harder to hit.
This is a typical Worcester...
vrage Says: This is a typical Worcester neighborhood.Back in the early 1900's a lot of these houses were built as 1 or 2 family places, and a lot were converted to one family because of the baby boomers.Now most that I know are 2 family.
