Food was excellent even with the menu litterly like 10% of what it use to be. Steak tips came out 10/10 waitress was super nice.. the comfort is a 5/10 church pews are NOT comfortable that’s why they’re for churches so people would stay awake. Put some cushions on those things. Anyways I was hoping for Valentine specials and there was nothing just 4 dinners to choose from the menu.

Stumbled upon this gem while exploring and it didn’t disappoint. The staff were very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Great crowd and food. Definitely get the wings and the cordbread.

I grew up in Northampton, and my parents started bringing me there as a kid, and I frequented Packard’s, as a legal adult for all of the years I lived in town. It’s one of the best places to get good food, good drinks (even if it’s just a Shirley Temple cause that’s what I wanted), and great atmosphere, that still exist there. Not to mention that you can play pool, darts, etc. It’s a place that is near and dear to my Heart, and holds so many happy memories! Thank you for still being there!!!

We asked for a 2lb wing tossed in buffalo, honey mustard and garlic parm. 10/10, thank you guys we had an amazing night. Sad the pool tables were full all night but it was still a good atmosphere, and sweet people around.

My husband and I stop here frequently since we’re in the neighborhood and I am genuinely SHOCKED to read all of the negative reviews. We love the food, the staff, and the vibes. Definitely stop by here on a weekend evening, it’s a lot of fun!

First 2 photos is the first time I went vs. yesterday’s. I loved it the 1st time.

Edit: Yesterday I came back after a while and the food was so disappointing. These are our wings vs the wings I ordered last time I went. Burnt wings even the garlic parmesan weren’t golden. My sons kids meal dry,fries were dark and cold. I don’t even know how the waitress brought that plate to the table. We ordered a side of cornbread but never got it (but was put on the bill) I order no carrots extra celery with the wings and still got the carrots. I don’t know if she wasn’t paying attention or was just careless. We didn’t say anything but we left disappointed. I felt bad because I was bragging about the food with friend and she ate there for the first time.

Sometimes atmosphere can tip the scales (versus a need for top category cuisine). Packard’s has atmosphere. The adequate service will get the food you selected to your booth and the entrees will meet your need to silence your hunger pangs.

I had ordered a drink earlier in the night, and someone cleaning up took it by accident. I went to the bar to say oh someone took it by mistake, was wondering if I could get another one. I hadn’t had a lot of it, It was a little farther away from other people’s drinks because I set it down to use the bathroom. When I went to the bar, I watched one of the women glance at me and then whisper to each other after they both glanced at me. One of them smiled briefly, looking in my direction. The second bartender shook her head and the first bartender proceeded to ignore me. I was in between some women they were serving and a man who got there after me. She ignored me until I went to get up, I sighed and was looking annoyed. She asked if she could help me, I said yeah I think someone had accidentally grabbed my beer, she said oh…no one’s brought anything like that down… I haven’t seen one… no one’s brought one down…do you want to buy another. I said no, and left and went back to my friend. As I walked up the stairs, she and the other bartender whispered to each other and glanced at me as I walked up the stairs, smiling. I usually have a good time here, but the bartenders tonight were really rude and made me uncomfortable. I will be letting friends know that the bartenders are rude and do not make people feel comfortable/ try to help when there may be an issue and mistake. They just want the money.

Came here for the first time hoping for a nice night out with friends, but unfortunately had a pretty unpleasant experience from the moment we arrived.
We were greeted by an employee/ “bouncer” outside who informed us that no outside food or beverages were allowed — which was understandable, so we disposed of what we had. My girlfriend handed over her ID with no issue. When I handed over mine (a valid driver’s license), he looked at it, then asked if I had a student ID or any other form of ID. I told him I didn’t — I’m not in school and already gave him my driver’s license, which should’ve been enough.
He then said he couldn’t accept “someone else’s ID,” implying it wasn’t mine — even though it clearly was. A nearby bus driver who overheard offered to take a look and even confirmed it looked like me, but the bouncer dismissed him, saying his opinion didn’t matter.
At this point, I was frustrated — we had just thrown out our drinks in good faith, only to be potentially denied entry over a license that is 100% mine. I explained that I wasn’t even planning to drink (I’m the only one in the group who doesn’t), and only then did he offer to mark an X on my hand and let me in. I agreed, just to move on.
Then, bizarrely, he told me it was “just a test” because apparently most people “run away” when questioned. Not sure what kind of approach that is for welcoming paying guests.
Sadly, the bad vibes didn’t end there. Once inside, the bartender glanced at us, then immediately turned away. We stood at the bar for a bit, only to see the bouncer come in, gesture toward us, and the bartender nodded — then continued ignoring us completely. It was obvious we weren’t wanted there from the start, and it made the entire group feel uncomfortable. We left shortly after.
We ended up going to Tunnel Bar instead and had a great time. Their staff was friendly, welcoming, and they use a proper ID scanner — instead of relying on one guy’s personal judgment of whether you “look enough” like your photo.
Would not recommend this place based on the lack of professionalism and overall unwelcoming atmosphere.

One of the few places around where they still have pool. Ya pay bt the hour but its worth it. Food is decent pub food. It’s a very young crowd though.
