I don’t know if irony is the right word for it? One would think the “revitalization” of the city wouldn’t include everything closing by 11 or 12 on a Saturday night? I remember back when the old Salty Dog Saloon was over there, and I lived right around the corner on Washington street. I guess the new demographics just aren’t night owls??? Weird.

My demographic doesn’t even leave home in the first place. You guys went out all the time.

I guess I should be more specific. I’m 35, I still try to go out to eat late if it’s after a concert, going out drinking or something, and often I’m just up late on off days since I work overnight. By new demographic I meant newer people moving to Worcester in the last few years, specifically people living in some of the new places near downtown etc.

Yeah, probably. I guess those 20 somethings I was standing next to today at the Saint Patrick’s parade who were 3 sheets to the wind are a dying breed lol. I figured at least with legal weed now we’d have more people up late with the munchies ordering out. I guess cooking at home is more of a trend with the next generation?

Are some places only doing Doordash or Uber Eats after a certain hour? I had a legit hard time finding anyplace even open. Personally I don’t prefer the extra fees and waiting at home for my food. We were just out and about anyway and wanted to stop somewhere on the way home.
