Fibbers is my favorite bar on the north shore point blank period. If youāre looking for delicious food with casual service in a cozy atmosphere, look no further. Craig the owner is a real mensch with a great team behind him. Highly recommend for celebrating st. Paddyās day!
First and foremost - the food. Top notch comfort food. Never do I leave fibbers unsatisfied with my meal. The kitchen crew is truly talented. Can always expect consistent quality tasting food each and every visit. FACT: Fibbers has THE BEST French fries. Their Mac n cheese is legendary. Iām pescatarian, so naturally my go to is the teriyaki salmon with garlic mashed & green beans. Iāve dreamed about it in my sleep itās so delicious. Their veggie burger is one of the best in the area and thatās a hill I would die on. my meat-eating mother & brother are big fans of the shepardās pie, inside out wings, and of course their burgers.
For me personally, a restaurantās ambiance plays a considerable role in the overall dine out experience. Thereās something about this place that makes it stand out from other ādiveā bars/eateries. Perhaps itās the exposed brick walls and dim lighting that make for such a comforting and laid back setting. Ultimately, itās the simply wonderful wait staff that foster a warm sense of familiarity at Fibberās. Probably explains why most of their customers are regulars. I keep coming back for the food of course, but to actually look forward to seeing friendly faces providing amiable service is a bonus. Johnnie was our server for our most recent visit - What a sweetheart! If Hannah is your bartender, you will not be disappointed. She has a gift for mixing cocktails; Iād recommend her margaritas and...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreIt was lunchtime and my husband and I were hungry but weāre tired of the āusualā and didnāt feel like putting anything together ourselves. We couldnāt decide where or what to get, but he mentioned that a coworker of his stated Fibber McGees had the ābest burgers in town, hands down.ā I thought thatās quite a claim, maybe we should try it, but the idea of ābar foodā wasnāt appealing to me, so I checked out the website menu and was intrigued. I got the vegetarian Burger substitute on the ārattlesnakeā and he got the āfibberā. First of allā if youāve ever gotten a veggie burger anywhere you know itās not anything to write home about, itās thin and generally tastes meh. For a barā the website was actually really nice looking, very easy to navigate and wasnāt overwhelmed with options; my eyes popped when I saw that nearly everything on the menu was homemade. When I got my burger it was HUGE. I didnāt think Iād be able to eat the thing, it was incredible, and I can honestly say after eating at nearly every establishment on Cabot street in Beverly, MA it truly wasā even the veggie burgerāthe best burger in town. The fries on the other hand werenāt anything to write home about. We got the fried pickle apps and those werent stellar... far too bready. I appreciate the lighter cornmeal style batter, but thatās my preference and they werenāt terrible. Just greasy. But greasy is what you expect for bar food, but those burgers were far from and Iām excited to try their other fare. A real hidden gem! If you havnt been yet, but have been noticing the placeāgo in and get yourself a burger. You wonāt be disappointed! Compliments to the...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreGreat burger, excellent, crispy hand,-cut fries, wonderful fried pickles. The only things I wasn't fond of were the onion rings. The onion was mushy with too much breading. Could barely taste the onion.
Plenty of TV to watch the games. I'll be back to try some other things that looked really good on the menu.
Update: Had the chicken wings (1/2 price during Patriot games, which takes away some of the sting of them playing so badly). The wings were good size, perfectly cooked and tasty with Korean BBQ sauce. They have several different sauce flavors to choose from. We split a steak tip sub with cheese which was delicious. The tips were very tender. We had asked for fries as the side and when it was brought to us it had onion rings. We were almost full from the wings and it didn't matter to us so we just ate the rings. They were better than the last time (not mushy) but still not what I prefer, which is a very thin coating where the onion is the prominent flavor, not the batter. Overall, it was a very good meal and I will be...
