Mighty Squirrel Taproom & Kitchen — Restaurant in Watertown

Wanted to spend a few hours here from 2-5pm before a reservation at another restaurant in the area, and we intended to get several rounds of 7 oz. drinks (i like to sample as many as possible) as well as order a food item after a couple of drinks. The service prevented us from doing so. We sat outside, and we were waiting for service for at least 45 minutes after finishing a round of drinks. There were 5 employees staffed for 3 tables. During that time, there were 4 of them standing in a circle talking with each other and a 5th, our server, was staring at a wall for a solid two minutes? I was finally able to get his attention and he said "you guys are so quiet." I wasnt aware its the customer's responsibility to get the attention of the staff when there are more employees than tables, I would understand if it were busy.

Its such a shame because the beer is delicious and the location is gorgeous but I'll never have an opportunity to try the food because 2 hours passed before we would've been able to order any. I would've spent at least another $40 if they had any reasonable level of customer service.

Probably a fine place to go if you sit at the bar and can interrupt the 5 employees conversation to put another round in, or maybe the guest is supposed to jump behind the bar and pour for...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mighty Squirrel Taproom and Tapas is an absolute gem! Whether you’re a longtime fan of their brews or just discovering them, this location takes the experience to a whole new level. The vibe is warm, lively, and inviting with a beautiful indoor space that balances cozy and modern perfectly. The outdoor space is perfect for chilling on a hot summer day, especially with their expansive patio.

The beer? Consistently fantastic. From juicy IPAs to crisp lagers and creative hard smoothies and hard seltzers, there’s always something exciting on tap. And the new tapas menu? Game-changer. Every small plate was packed with flavor and paired beautifully with our drinks. The poke bowl was so fresh and full of flavors. You can tell there’s real thought and quality behind every dish.

Staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Sean, my server was such a pleasure and very attentive. Billie, one of the bartenders has such a bright personality and knows her beer. Honestly, each and every employee I interacted with made me feel taken care of from the moment I walked in. Whether you’re grabbing a beer and bite with friends or settling in for a date night, Mighty Squirrel Taproom and Tapas delivers a top-tier experience. Can’t wait...

Thank you for coming to Arsenal Yards!!! What a nice edition to this family friendly area. My family and I have been pleasantly surprised by Mighty Squirrel and have visited this place many times.

First, I love the ambiance of this place. It’s so big and open. I love their outdoor space. I’ve only been here in the summer, so I’ll be interested to see how they’ll use their space in the wintertime.

Second, the beers and other beverages are so yummy!!! I love that you can get small versions on most of the beers. I also love that they serve coffee and fresh juices. What a treat for any occasion. Their food is pretty good too … especially their fish tacos. They are craveable and better than most taco places!!! I do wish, however, they had some flatbread options. That would really make this place amazinggggg!!!

And last and most importantly, their service is impeccable. They get pretty busy but have always tried to accommodate seating. I also superrrrr appreciate that they are baby/toddler/kid friendly. Like … so patient and no dirty looks. You’d be surprised how many places automatically judge you when they see a stroller pull up. This really makes this place shine and stand out cuz honestly, who needs a a drink with a nice vibe more than moms and...
