Family Weekend is coming up just next week! Hopefully you all will have the opportunity to escape a night of grilled chicken and green beans and go out to dinner with your family. I decided to take a poll of Holy Cross students’ favorite place to grab a bite to eat in Worcester. I hope this list helps convince your parents to save their Kimball guest swipes for another day. Exploring Worcester cuisine can be a fun bonding experience for your family during family weekend. Overall, the most popular restaurants were Birchtree Bread Company, Via, The Fix, and Nu Kitchen. Personally, my favorite spot to eat out is The Fix! The burgers there are worth it. I hope these recommendations make dinner indecisiveness easier!
