Restaurants & Food across the Worcester metro
Inclusive and diverse-owned restaurants & food businesses across the Worcester metro, not just the city itself.
Worcester eats along a few clear spines. Shrewsbury Street is the restaurant row, the Canal District around Kelley Square and Polar Park has filled in with kitchens and bars, and Main South and Park Avenue carry a lot of the everyday food. East and West African, Caribbean, Latin American and Vietnamese kitchens all have a real presence here. A number of these businesses are caterers, food trucks or market stalls rather than dining rooms, so check how to order before you travel.

Read moreRestaurants & Food in Worcester: questions people ask
How many restaurants are listed across the Worcester metro?
10 right now, in Worcester. The list grows as businesses are recommended, checked and added.
What makes a business inclusive on Inclusivity.org?
Every listing shows why it is here, with a source you can check: the owner's own statement, a public listing such as a chamber directory, or a recognized certification. Some are owned by the communities they serve and some are allies who welcome everyone. We never list someone's identity without a source.
Do restaurants in Worcester take reservations?
Many do, and plenty are walk-in only. Some kitchens here are takeout, catering or food-truck operations with no dining room, so check how each one takes orders before you go.
How can I ask about allergies or dietary needs?
Call ahead rather than asking at the table, and ask how the kitchen handles cross-contact, not just whether a dish contains an ingredient. Small kitchens are often very accommodating when they know in advance.
Is it free to be listed?
Yes. A basic listing is free, and owners can claim and update theirs at any time. Featured and Enhanced listings get more room on the page, and being listed never depends on them.
How do I suggest a restaurant that is missing?
Use Recommend a business at the bottom of this page. We research every suggestion, and nothing goes live until it has been checked.
Know a restaurant we're missing?
Tell us who they are and we'll do the research. Nothing goes live until we've checked it, and we never list someone's identity without a source.
