Southway Pub & Grub Inc — Restaurant in Marshfield

I ate at this place on Super Bowl Sunday around 1:45 pm. I had heard much about the food here being better than the local Marshfield bar fare.

Service was adequate. Bartender was nice enough and it was typical of what I expected being my first time in this place.

I ordered a burger and fries. Not much to screw up on this one would think. One of my contingencies on whether I will eat other food in the future from a place is if the burgers are cooked as I specify.

My scale is medium rare: 70-90% of the burger can show pink, Medium: up to 50% of the burger can show pink Medium Well: up to 20% can show pink Well Done: No pink.

I always order a medium burger. I have had two experiences when I have gotten a medium rare at various restaurants around the state. This was one of them. It is truly not difficult, if you cook all the time, to have this art down.

The lack of meeting this simple request means I will never find my way back to this place.

The adequate bar service and the seasoning on the fries (nothing complex but they had it) saves this from being a complete one star.

It appears from others I might be one of the few with a bad experience but the inability to cook a burger right means I will go to one of the many places in town that can do this consistently without fail.

I had my first date with my fiancee at this bar. The drinks are always strong and well priced, and the service is fantastic. Shane and Sara are the nicest and hardest working bar owners in Marshfield. You won't find average bar food here, the prices are low and the quality is second to none. You will only be disappointed in Southway if you don't consider it as your first choice. If you don't believe me, then buy a bacon cheeseburger.

Edit... years have passed. And still the best burger...

We ordered the Broccoli bites, Onion Rings & a 12" Homemade pizza with green olives, pepperoni & mushrooms. Everything we ordered was fantastic 😊 The onion rings and broccoli bites were delicious and crunching well cooked and NOT greasy and the pizza, All I can say is it's the best pizza I've had since living in Marshfield. The service was terrific and the staff is very personable. Will definitely be back. Two thumbs up PS. Very...
