"I called in the morning to check if they had it available for takeout. The woman who answered the phone wasn’t very pleasant, but she did confirm they would be serving it and advised me to call back later in the afternoon. When I called back around 12:30, I was put on hold for so long that I thought they had forgotten about me. I was about to hang up and try again when she finally returned to the line, sounding quite annoyed as she took my order. When I arrived, the restaurant was empty apart from the staff. I waited for a bit and then approached the bar, where the same unfriendly woman handed me my order without even greeting me or saying anything pleasant. At home, I was stunned by what I found: the worst boiled dinner I’ve ever seen. The vegetables were barely cooked, if at all. I struggled to cut through the carrots, cabbage, and potatoes. Honestly, if I wanted raw vegetables, I could have done that myself. The brisket wasn’t good either. I ended up repurposing the potatoes into a chowder I was making, and my dining partner reluctantly ate the carrots. We attempted to eat the cabbage, but it was completely uncooked. Yuck. The portion size was also ridiculously small—though I guess that was for the best since it was inedible. It wasn’t worth the price, even if it had been edible. I will never return. It’s baffling to think that someone would brave going out just to get a boiled dinner, only to be met with rudeness and such a poor meal. I was able to go somewhere else, but I can’t help but think that many others might have stayed home, hoping for a decent takeout meal. Spud's really dropped the ball."

This is a nice local choice, what do you want, it's Rowley,MA. The beer is cold, the food is hot and the service is good. I think when you go in with a family of 6 and walk out under $100.00 they are doing something right! People need to review from the appropriate perspective, that is the problem with Yelp, too many ignorant consumers! The perspective here is locality, value based product and service and consistency, they hit the mark 9 out of 10 times. Great job Spud's!

This restaurant is a fantastic spot for fine dining and a great place to bring the family. Their buffalo tenders are incredibly unique and absolutely delicious. I've been coming here for years, and it’s heartbreaking to hear that they will be closing soon. This restaurant has been a beloved establishment and will be fondly remembered. It's my go-to for both takeout and dining in. I'll really miss the staff and the amazing food, especially the Spuds Original Coconut-Coated Vanilla Fried Ice Cream. Thank you for all the years of service—you guys are amazing!

Lord of the Flies. Many others besides me complaining about the fly situation. Bartender promising to rectify situation with her fly swatter, indicating to me this is not an anomaly. Same as last two times I was in. I won't be back. UPDATE: Damn it. I did go back for another try on Friday, January 6th with my wife. Just looking for a simple steak tip Cesar salad. They managed to screw that up pretty well. Why don't you people try to dry your lettuce before you serve it. I want to eat my salad, not drink it. I got a soppy, soaking wet mess. I'm stupid like that. I have to learn the same lesson several times before it really sinks in. View menu

We were looking for a family-friendly place to eat on a Sunday night and came across Spud's, which embodies that classic, middle-American vibe! The food, service, and overall experience here earn a solid three stars. However, Spud's embraces its identity and doesn't pretend to be anything it's not, which I think warrants an extra star. We needed a spot where we could easily snag a table, enjoy good food, and get back on the road. Spud's delivered on all these fronts without any issues. The prices are reasonable, and the service is satisfactory. Was it memorable? Not really. There's nothing particularly special about it, but sometimes, a straightforward experience is just what you need. Thank...

First time and last time we would ever eat here. Went on a Saturday about 3:30 and the service food was HORRIBLE!!! The waitress took her own time with us. The ragoons were still frozen in the middle, my crab pie was luke warm and smelt very fishy, more like shredded crab pie. I hardly touched it at all; waitress didnt even ask. My husband steak tips were perfect but his fish smelled and had an after taste that was less desirable. We told the waitress of the frozen ragoons, she asked us if we were kidding she brought them back brought more out, she didnt ask what we'd like, she took 20 mintues each time she left us and had only one other table. She did everything else except care for our tab...

Terrible Service! Didn 't even stay to see how the food was. After a scenic drive around the Newburyport area, decided to head up Rte 1, came across Spuds and decided it looked like a good place for lunch. Walked in the door, there were 2 people standing at the Hostess stand and all they said was Hold on a minute I should have decided right then and there that they don 't know what Good Customer Service is, but we waited, got seated at a table. While we were reviewing the menu, a family was seated just behind us. We waited, we waited we waited. Finally a waitress and her trainee approached the table behind us, took their drink orders and left. I looked at my husband and we both decided ok we... View menu

Nope. Dined here about a month ago and can legitimately say I will never go back. We had our drink order taken 10 minutes after we were seated in the waiter-proclaimed grey area , where hosts and waitstaff disagreed on who should serve the table. Our drinks failed to arrive after 10 more minutes. We ordered an app and dinner, and folks, we were not served either for AN HOUR. There was a supposed emergency family phone call that prevented Craig from asking another server to run our food/check on us/etc while he chatted. We were never upset that you took the call, dipsh!t, just that we were left waiting for cruddy food for so long. Spoke with the manager-lady who was nice enough to bring us ou...

I have to leave this for my most recent experience. I have been here multiple times and it is a standard usual homestyle meal. It cannot compare to an upscale 5 star, but if home cooked co.fort food (regardless of calories is what you 're looking for, this is your place. There is a large local crowd and it is a more blue collar, older crowd. As I type this a regular standing at the bar just passed gas at my table right behind him. Nice. That said, the waitress I had this go around flat out sucked. Professional is not a word she gets. She barked orders at everyone, got my drink order wrong which gave me an allergic reaction, didn 't listen to my order which offered me no opportunity to tell h...
