Pine Brook Pub - Boards, Bites, & Brews in Massachusetts

"Food and service is outstanding. Tammy made a maple and Dijon dressing that I could have drank. Speaking of.... Great cocktails as well. So good. Also boardgames galore. So many classics and new options to choose from. What a gem!!!"

"My wife and I stumbled upon this wonderful pub out of pure luck. While the outside may look a little unassuming, it hides quite the treasure within. Atmosphere: The inside houses wonderful artwork on the walls, some televisions (at the time they were displaying peaceful nature programs, mostly focusing on birds), very relaxed lighting, and some serene ceiling lights illuminating two forested canopies - a really cool touch. They also had some great music playing - neither too soft nor too loud. The most interesting and impressive part though, was the wall of various games. Board games, card games, and everything in-between. There are games of varying styles, so that if someone was looking for a classic from years ago or something on the newer side, they have something for everyone. The games are even labeled with stickers to create a system to help recommend games based on ages and complexity. Service: The service was incredible, with everyone being attentive and friendly. Over the course of taking orders, getting drinks, getting refills, having food ordered, and getting bags to bring food home, we were served by at least four people: all of them were incredibly nice and socialable. The owner herself was the one who originally took our order and she was welcoming, informative, and proud of her staff. Every request was met with a smile, including some customization of an order. Food: Everything was made with love and care, and it was all home-made. Fried pickles - delicious, with a great fried exterior with the perfect balance of consistency inside. Curry and sweet potato soup - not something I knew I needed in my life. It was entirely unique and delectable. It had a great balance of heat, so if you like some curry flavor, this will hit on all cylinders. If you don't normally handle curry heat, I suggest getting some bread on the side. Salad - well-balanced, fresh, well-portioned, and it comes with their own dressing. Chicken parm (a special - may not always be available) - my wife and I are very particular about our chicken parm and this certainly met that standard. The pasta was al dente and the chicken was crispy on the outside and soft in the center. Everything tasted fresh and, again, delectable. The garlic bread on the side was so good my wife didn't want to share any with me. BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich - some places smother their pulled pork in too much sauce, but they found the right balance here, with the slaw and bun, the portions were perfect. Oh, and the fries that came on the side? So crispy and delicious, with a home-made honey mustard that I would buy bottles of. Drinks - a great selection. My ONLY complaint would be that the ice to tea ratio leaned a little too heavily towards the ice. Our visit was certainly one to remember and, if we are in the area again, we will be sure to return."

"Absolutely awesome atmosphere and great food omg amazing ppl own the place family friendly"

"Tried it in a whim and was pleasantly surprised. We had the Shepherds Pie and Greek Salad plate yhe first time as well as a bit of the gelato, everything was excellent. This time I had the burger, with cheese bacon and fries and it was easily top tier for the area. highly recommend though I should mention that service can slow down a bit when they're busy, but I also can't think of a place in the area where that isn't true. Oh, check the Facebook to find out daily specials and the like."

"Food was very good, menu is short but sweet, drinks are amazing, service was impeccable, 11/10 would eat here again"

"Nice, casual vibe. Lots of games to choose from. Took a long time to get food, get waiter, get the check. Kind of dampened a delicious dinner of pulled pork keto bowl."

"Such a cute little place to dine & play games! The food was delicious, service was very polite and inviting, and they had a wide variety of games. Give it a try!"

"My hubby and I just moved to the area and wanted a place to go for our anniversary. Boy, did we pick the right place. The food is just incredible. He got the sicilian salmon special. It had a generous portion of perfectly cooked salmon on a bed of couscous and quinoa. Roasted Mediterranean olives, feta, and lemon were on top. Served with a side salad, it was a great size. I got the empenada special. You could choose 2 of the three flavors. Beef, chicken or spinach. I got the chicken and spinach. Fantastic. They were served with a side salad topped with street corn style corn. We both got the corn chowder. Top notch. Perfect consistency. Not too thick, great flavor. We got one side. I cannot recommend them enough. The Thunderbolt fritters. Again, top notch. Jalapeño bits, corn, cream cheese, lightly battered and fried. Served with ranch. To finish the meal with got some Gelato to go. Maple walnut and Roasted banana dulce de Leche. The atmosphere is awesome, they have board games you can play for a small fee. If you order over $10 in food, the cost is lower and kids under 5 play free. Though we don't drink, the vast list of cocktails was very appealing. I highly recommend checking this wonderful place out. I know we will certainly be returning. Many times."
