Good morning neighbors! I’m wondering if any of you know if any of the breweries in town have private rooms? Their websites are kind of nondescript and it seems like something I’d have to figure out by going in. Anyone know any off the top of their head?

Restaurants too, I know Volturno has that other room and other places on Shrewsbury street do too. I know there must be more that I’m not thinking of. Help me out? Thank you!

Bay State has a “function room” they will rent out if you have a large enough party. How many people are you talking? May be tough to find something for say a party of 6, but 20-30 people sure.

Thank you! It’s probably going to be around 20-25 but could get up to 35.

Oooooh! Good to know! I’ve seen that space but didn’t know if they could segregate it or not. Thank you!

Outside Worcester, but Timberyard (22 minutes from Worcester) has a huge warehouse private event space behind the taproom

Treehouse does private events now, too. Not sure the details, but I remember reading about it on their website.

Good to know, thank you! We are trying to keep it in Worcester, since we have more people east of the city than west.

Wormtown and Bay State both do. We booked wormtown for an event and it was a great experience.

Arsmby Abbey & O'Connor's have rooms that can be rented.

Awesome thank you! I heard O’Connor’s changed ownership or management or something and I haven’t been hearing good things about it. Have you been since the change?

No, we haven't been since it was sold. The article that reported the sale mentioned the new owners intended to keep things the same, even keeping the original staff. Are there any details you can share?

I’ve just heard that it’s not the same, service was slow, food was not as good. Just an overall lesser experience than what they had known it to be.

Cheers, mate. RIP to an old favorite.

I've heard this too. However, the slowness of service had been a problem for a while before they sold. We usually had planned on 2-2 1/2 hours for a meal there, for 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) with appetizers and entree, no dessert. Sometimes that wasn't enough. And we weren't going on nights when there was a line out the door.

Oakholm rents their mezzanine by the hour

I loooooove Oakholm! Unfortunately, a little too far out of Worcester for this event, but maybe the next one!

Seven saws has a private room, and you can rent the main space as well.

Nuovo on Shrewsbury St does private events upstairs and seems to have very reasonable prices. I am considering it for a wedding reception.

Do it! They are one of my family’s favorite places! We had a party for my grandparents up there and the space is really pretty! I loved all the windows and the food is of course too notch.

Treehouse Monday through Thursday. Probably not the cheapest though and slightly outside Worcester
