Century House Epicurean Shoppe

Have been couple of times lately. Last one was for breakfast. Pretty good, not great. Nothing stood out. Bacon was quite thin. Omelette was fine. Wait service was spectacular. Waitresses have been there for decades, know their stuff, and are there just before you need then. Wish I knew her name. Other time I went recently was for lunch. Had a salad with steak tips. Was good. Really fine. Again Waitress was wonderful and everything was fine. Ambiance is great. It hasn't changed in decades. It is spread out, old fashioned and comfy. I like it. But then, it is probably because I used to go there with my grandmother. If I was visiting the area and went there I would probably be disappointed. If you go, be sure to drop into their Epicurean shop. It is very good. The prices are wonderful and it is the same food as the restaurant of course. Hubby loves their American Chop Suey and it is $5 for a medium plastic container. Half the cost of other places. It is good, too.

Really good food, good service, great daily specials, etc.! Like anywhere there are hiccups from time to time depending, but a pretty good experience overall!! Their Epicurian Shoppe is a nice place to peruse for all kinds of things to take out/home too!!!! : A1 in my book folks............ :

Most times I hit the 5 Stars here! This time it was still an enjoyable meal and great service however- the Prime Rib ordered as Rare came out more med/ med rare than anything.. it was still delicious but you can always cook it more if the customer cries, you can't uncook it once it's overdone... the tips were great! This place is a Safe Bet

Very disappointed!! Ate there for the 1st time with wife and 2 boys.. my prime rib was ok, but the mashed potatoes that came with it was definately powdered potatoes froma box. My esparigus was extremely wilted and half had no sprout, it was just a stem.. My son ordered the chicken kebob, that was $19.99.. He got a 9 skewer with pieces of chicken and a few vegetables, on a bed of rice.. This was something that should be on a children's menu for $8.99.. Wife and I were not pleased at all, my wife keeps saying thank goodness they never asked how our meals were, they would have got an ear full....

I highly recommend having breakfast lunch or dinner at the Century House Restaurant in Peabody, Massachusetts, the atmosphere is lovely, the service is wonderful, waitresses, waiters are very friendly, when I went on 3/9/2024 for lunch I had the steak tips, and they were delicious, the steak tips were cooked perfect, for dessert I had the grape nut bread pudding which was very delicious.
