Winthrop Arms

Haven't been here in a long long time. What are your opinions of this quaint place? Thanks!

    My mother lives nearby and likes it and I have lunch there pretty often. It's good for what it is. A lot of little old ladies. I've had good turkey dinners with real mashed and very good butternut squash, Baked stuffed schrod or scallops, chicken pot pie, pot roast. I really like their fried potatoes. They do hideous things to green vegetables. Service is very friendly but kitchen can be slow. It's righ in the middle of a residential neighborhood so parking can entail a slight walk.

    Dinner may be a little more imaginative but I don't know. Overall, I'd recommend it as an old fashioned restaurant. They're always pretty busy.

      Thanks, Steve L.!
      I think I might have to venture there for a memorable turkey dinner that I don't have to prepare!
