Local Restaurants Built on Small Town Charm

Viking Pizza and McGuiggan’s Pub  may not share all of the same menu items and follow similar design aesthetics, but they do encompass the same small town charm aspects that attract countless local residents daily. One specializes primarily in takeout serving pizza, salads, sandwiches and calzones and the other stems from Ireland serving comfort pub dishes in a cozy and warm environment. Despite Viking Pizza and McGuiggan’s Pub looking like polar opposites on the outside, they seem to inhabit numerous similar aspects that have turned them into all time towny favorites.

Viking Pizza- 34 Bedford St, East Bridgewater, MA

Located in the center of town, Viking Pizza is a local favorite for all EB residents. This hotspot is named after East Bridgewater’s beloved mascot, The Vikings, and emulates the town’s spirit in every way. For low prices ranging from $10-$20 for a meal, you’ll receive a lot of bang for your buck at Viking. Since 1988, Viking Pizza has made it easy for customers to enjoy their meal in comfort by offering quick delivery and takeout services as well as smaller in person dining options. With pizza being a prominent aspect in their name, it’s no surprise that pizza is their specialty dish. 

Viking Pizza offers 36 large specialty pizzas for the appropriate price of $16.95, as well as customizable options, and $3.50 giant slices of any pie you could dream of. Some of their most intriguing pizzas include the California BLT pizza - alfredo sauce, mozzarella, cheddar, tomatoes, bacon, and romaine lettuce with house dressing, as well as the Amore Pizza - white, mozzarella cheese, ricotta, and spinach and artichoke hearts, and their Pizza Spanko - white, mozzarella, cheddar, garlic, chopped spinach, red onion, gyro style beef, black olives and feta cheese crumbles. On top of their perfectly crafted pizzas, Viking offers a variety of calzones, salads, subs, sandwiches, chicken wings, french fries, quesadillas, wraps, gyros, pastas, and beverages. With their lengthy menu, you’re guaranteed to find something you like regardless of allergies or dietary preferences. Viking Pizza is the perfect option when you want an easy meal on the couch, on the go, or out on the town.

Although I love the amazing food Viking has to offer, I value the customer service even more. Like many other East Bridgewater residents, my family and I order takeout and delivery from Viking at least once a week (sometimes even more). Everytime we encounter an employee, they simply exude kindness and respect. Tony Mamouzellos, long time owner of Viking Pizza, even goes out of his way to make relationships with his patrons. Oftentimes, my family and I will have long and meaningful conversations with Mamouzellos when picking up our food, and will find out when we get home that he slipped in extra slices of pizza, calzones, and pockets of pita bread, free of charge. Even though the food at Viking Pizza is absolutely incredible, the staff and their kindness encourages us to keep coming back.

McGuiggan’s Pub - 546 Washington St, Whitman, MA

Inside the heart of Whitman, MA lies a small restaurant that simply exudes charm. McGuiggan’s Pub may be little with only fifteen tables and three hightops, but it is the perfect place to make memories. I can recall visiting the pub after countless dance recitals and birthday celebrations, and sitting down to enjoy the most consistently delicious bar pizza in the world. McGuiggan’s Pub is entirely Irish, from the name to the obsessive interior design. The pub is stacked full of shamrocks that will entice you to sit at the 54 foot mahogany bar and order a traditional Guinness out of their famous ‘boot’ glass. Not to mention, the staff is extremely friendly from the bartenders to the chefs, with two servers working the dining room at all times, and a host that greets you with a smile at the front door. Although, I may have a slight bias as hostessing at McGuiggan’s Pub was my first ever job. However, this provides me with all the more accuracy in my review.

Moving on to the dishes, you’re guaranteed to find at least one meal you like, with a five page long menu. My personal favorite dish of theirs is the classic cheese pizza, which is objectively the perfect size for one customer priced at just $8.75. The sauce to cheese ratio is unmatched by any other nearby pub which makes it a consistent crowd favorite. Another fan favorite is the traditional Irish shepherd’s pie. There’s something enlightening about the mashed potato and minced meat combination that patrons of McGuiggan’s Pub go crazy for, especially for the affordable price of $18.99.

Another interesting aspect of McGuiggan’s is the live music and bingo events they’re constantly holding. Every Friday and Saturday Night, the pub has local singers and bands perform live to bar and restaurant guests which instantly brings the restaurant’s spirits up. Although the performances usually start late at night around 8 or 9 p.m., the bar fills up fast with customers excited to enjoy their meal while receiving live entertainment. Not to mention, Wednesday nights McGuiggan’s holds SINGO competitions, in which an entertainer comes in and hosts bingo games with famous hit songs instead of calling out numbers. In my two years hostessing during SINGO nights, it’s safe to say Wednesdays are extremely packed, and customers of all ages go absolutely crazy for this game. Owner, Richard Rosen, guarantees a different experience at McGuiggan’s Pub than other nearby restaurants with numerous exciting aspects for his customers to enjoy. From the familiar comfort food, to the nightly entertainment and inviting environment, McGuiggan’s Pub is a charming local spot for both food and fun.

Despite only existing in the realm of Plymouth County, Viking Pizza and McGuiggan’s Pub have made a reputation for themselves based on their all around fantastic aspects. Whether you’re trying out the food, looking to socialize, or are in need of a fun night, Viking Pizza and McGuiggan’s Pub are the perfect restaurants for you.

As usual from me, an obscure Marvel villain! Donald McGuiggan aka Lamprey hails from Earth-712, where he was a member of the Institute of Evil, enemies to the Squadron Supreme superheroes. Lamprey met his end during the final fight between the Squadron and the Institute (now called The Redeemers) when, having already absorbed the energy of Hyperion, Power Princess, and the Whizzer, he tried to take all the energy from Dr. Spectrum’s power prism. It was too much, and Lamprey exploded with such force that most of his body was never recovered. I like Lamprey, he seemed like a terrible person and a fun villain. Very animated, very gleefully wicked, wouldn’t even help get a critically injured teammate to the hospital because he was enjoying hurting the heroes too much. Also, managed to be badass in PIGTAILS.

Word of the Week: Greatness

Word of the Week: Greatness

One of my favorite stories, although it’s probably apocryphal, is about a group of tourists visiting a picturesque village in Europe. As they toured, admiring the beauty, the cathedral and the architecture of this quaint 13th century village, one tourist spotted an old man sitting on a bench. In a rather patronizing way, he asked, “Were any great men born in this village?” (more…)

“Truck Driver Is Found Criminally Negligent,” Toronto Star. May 7, 1930. Page 03. ---- Frank Watt, Who Broke Two Poles and Injured Man, Awaits Sentence ---- The unusual happened this morning when Frank Watt was ‘tried-in-the-full’ and convicted on a charge of criminal negligence, resulting in what the doctors say, may prove to be life-long injuries to John McGuigan. Practically all criminal negligence cases are ‘sent on,’ and for a while this one seemed to be following the usual course. And what was done was largely at the request of the accused’s counsel, W. B. Horkins, who, while not admitting his client’s guilt, was anxious to have the case disposed of in police court. His client was found guilty and now awaits sentence instead of trial by jury.

P. C. Craig stated that he saw Watt driving a truck at Larksmount and Queen at 3:30 p.m. He was going about 45 miles and hor and honking his horn like a man whose enthusiastic desire and sole aim in life was to et somewhere before anyone had time to move the place somewhere else. Enroute he took to the boulevard and hit an iron post. This seemed to intensify his ambition and after travelling a little further, he broke off a telegraph police, injuring a woman and a man. The man, John McGuiggan, is in hospital with a broken hip-bone.

May be Permanently Lame ‘Doctors,’ said Crown Attorney Gordon, ‘say that the man will be in hospital for nine months and may be lame for the remainder of his life.’

Magistrate Jones decided that enough evidence had been given to justify committal for trial. Counel W. B. Horkins pressed for a summary trial. Mr. Horkins pressed for a summary trial. Mr. Horkins persisted and called his client to the witness stand.

Watt said he was married and up to the time of the accident was with his employers for five years. He was paid $22 a week.

The police had suggested that the accused had been drinking, later eating peppermints.

‘I’m not a drinking man. I didn’t have a drink,’ declared the accused. ‘I lost control of the car. It can’t go more than 25 miles an hour.’

In reply to Mr. Gordon, he added that he was answering an emergency call and was not on the sidewalk.

‘I suggest to you, sir, that you were drunk,’ said Crown Attorney Gordon.

‘I don’t drink. I can call lots to say they’ve never seen me take a drink.’

‘No doubt. Yet you smashed two poles and struck a man.’

Accused was then convicted and remanded in custody for one week for sentence.

The Cannikin  It’s all very well to drink at night, To sing and to ‘clink the cannikin.’ But if you get tight it’s a day and a night Before you can feel like a man ag’in Three over-industrious drinkers, Robert Lang, Albert Fox, and John Smith, were sent down for three months. Detective Mulholland told Magistrate Jance that Smith had been convicted fourteen times under the L.C.A., and Mrs. Smith didn’t even mention that there was at least one other Smith in the Dominion of Canada. Fox claimed he ‘hadn’t had a chance.’

‘I’ll give you one now,’ said Mr. Jones. ‘I could make it six months. I’ll only give you three months. There’s your chance.’

Steve Besnick tore a constable’s trousers and left an extra $5 bill for a patch.

He said he’d had a si’pping time: It looked more like a ripping time. Trespassed Even at the risk of disturbing the rest of the famous Dr. Johnson, who said that a man who would make a pun would pick a pocket, it is hereby recorded that William Rosin went to sleep in a railway station and rose in the jail.

He was allowed to go. Flattering When James O’Connor and Charles Devlin were assessed $50 or one month for second offences of drunkenness they went down looking like men who had been flattered beyond words.

Drove Into Crowd The committal for trial took place this morning of young Philip Hutchinson, charged with manslaughter. On April 3, the accused’s truck ran into a crowd of people at the corner of Linsmore and Dansforth Aves., injuring several. One of the victims was little Helen Dowdell who subsequently died at the Hospital foor Sick Children from meningitis, following a fracture of the skull. The child’s mother, also in the crowd, is still in a plaster cast at the hospital. W. F. Brennan, an eye witness, seated in his car at the time, said the accused’s truck was travelling at a greater speed than 25 miles an hour.

‘I saw his truck strike into the crowd. I can’t say if he reduced his speed,’ testified this eye witness.

Accused’s bail in $6,000 was renewed. Farewell Two strangers, Fred Devignesuse and Main Martavaki coming from somewhere, were permitted to go somewhere, apparently grateful there was still somewhere in this spacious universe where two railway trespassers could go. Sonny Boy Like the tired child he sank Upon his daddy’s step, The bobby found him there, Devoid of sense and pep. When William Booth was charged with drunkennness and B.L.C.A., the police said he had navigated safely as far as his poppa’s doorstep.

After ringing the bell he fell asleep on the step and looked so unlike himself, he wasn’t recognized.

Booth escaped with a $10 fine and surrender of his liquor permit. Hands Off! Appearing before Jude Coatsworth ‘in chambers,’ William Moore, guilty of assaulting a Chinaman, was placed on probation for three years.

Or how your dinner’s done, The Chinaman our brother is, Our poppa’s fellow son. Awaits Sentence Pleading guilty to a charge of stealing two trucks, Rae Jones was remanded until May 14. ‘We’re guilty under section 285 (B),’ Counsel Austin Ross reminded the court. Clean Cut When the police reached John Robertson on Davenport Rd., he was tied up with part of a Hydro pole dangling on a wire overhead. Robertson was behind the wheel. Two other men were in the car. ‘He’d been drinking and was not fit to drive,’ said a constable. Asked why, he said the motorist’s eyes were glassy, his limbs unsteady, his speech somewhat stuttery, and he smelt of liquor. Altogether, in some respects, he resembled the state of Mexico.

‘I was going to work,’ said Robertson.

‘Bought a gallon of wine that day,’ remarked Magistrate Jones.

‘I had a drunk after dinner,’ replied the accused.

In addition to a fine of $25 and costs or ten days, he goes to jail for seven days, also loses his driving permit for 90 days.

118 S. Clinton St.: This sidewalk is located on Clinton Street just across the street from Union Station. It is a heavily populated sidewalk with lots of people with luggage, baby strollers, wheelchairs, skateboards, etc. The deep crack could be potentially hazardous to the many pedestrians that walk across it everyday.

Last session, we had our first fight against elementals. Yaaaay. Long story short, some mephits and some winter wolves were arguing, things escalated, we fought the mephits, and they had an ice elemental buddy.

McGuiggan (played by my buddy, Riel) cast Faerie Fire earlier in the fight, making the ice elemental glow a pale red. We joked that it looked like a disco because of all the ice. Soon after, one of the mephits (the only one left in the fight, actually), cast Fog Cloud in an effort to make it harder for them to be hit. The mephit, the ice elemental, Cree, Hush, Dahlia, and Fracture were all in that fog cloud while McGuiggan and Anther were out of it. And because of the aforementioned Faerie Fire, light was shining through it. Then it really looked like a disco.

Nobody was really entertained.

PROVINCETOWN — A raw sea fog snaked inland under the pines as Amy McGuiggan picked her way among the gray stones of the Winthrop Street Cemetery, looking for a familiar name.Joshua Mayo’s headstone was half-buried in a thick duff of pine needles. The blue-gray slate was mostly free of lichen, and the crisp lettering topped by a scalloped urn gave his particulars.McGuiggan knew he had been born in Eastham and that his family had moved to Provincetown [...]

So this was fun! During the session last night the party was completely numerically overwhelmed by the enemy, and were slowly trying to escape from the battle. The big bad boss on the enemy side used a screech attack that stunned half the party, and Cree, who had been the most emphatic about trying to get everyone to disengage from the fight and run please, got super pissed at him. Passing her own saving throw against the screech, and opting against any more sensible attack options like spells, she set a hunk of firewood from her pack ablaze with Prestidigitation and threw it at the enemy boss. And got a natural 20 on the attack roll. The flaming log hit the enemy boss right in the face. @rabbitthewriter joked that it would leave a scar on him, and @cpmtiger-art agreed to make canon.

Tagging @aceweyoun for Fracture.
