WORCESTER—Whether you’re a die-hard Patriots loyalist who still talks about the dynasty years or just here for the snacks, the squares and a good seat near a TV, Super Bowl Sunday has arrived — and Worcester is ready for it.
As the New England Patriots take on the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX on Sunday, Feb. 8, local bars and restaurants across the city are leaning into the moment, hosting watch parties, rolling out game-day specials, and promising plenty of screens, food, and drinks to carry fans from kickoff to the final whistle. Watching at home is always an option, but for many Worcester residents, Super Bowl Sunday is better experienced surrounded by noise, jerseys, and fellow fans. And for most folks around here? Go Pats.
