About the restaurant

You have found your place.

Our 99 seat restaurant opened in 2022 and features scratch made entrees, a delicious ever changing cocktail list and a wonderful ambiance that incorporates touches of Concord's history throughout.

With a fun and cozy environment, The West Village Tavern has quickly become a local favorite.

Chef Walace's diverse American style menu features some the most loved comfort meals as well as some delicious takes on international cuisine, like our scratch dumplings. Over in our bar, we have a wonderful cocktail menu with what seems like endless options. Don't forget about to check out our expansive whiskey and rum offerings as well.

The food was excellent and price fair considering WVT is in Concord, MA. Overall, a great restuarant and interior design is welcoming. We were a party of seven and everyone enjoyed their meals.

We got a table outside so it was quiet. Waiter was informative, attentive and fun to be with. Love that you can order a small serving of pasta to go with salad. Hanger steak and real fries were enjoyed by my husband. Would definitely repeat the visit.

Server was great. Pizza was good. Quesadilla was quite greasy on the outside. Maybe consider not using so much oil when you cook it. Overall, it was a nice meal though

Great spot about 15 minutes from Groton Hill Music Hall! We had a fantastic meal—everything was fresh and flavorful. The bang bang broccoli was a standout, perfectly crispy with just the right amount of kick. The chopped Greek salad was also excellent. A great choice for dinner before or after a show!

About the restaurant

Time counts at BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we’ve continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ’s a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ’s to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back.

We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we’ve put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better.

So in many ways we haven’t just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it’s because of them we’re continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts.

Welcome to BJ’s, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.
