Dining Services

Briarwood provides restaurant-style dining and a café for delicious, fun dining experiences.

Good Food and Great Company

At Briarwood, meals are about more than just food. It’s also the best time to spend time with friends old and new — and with multiple dining options and a flexible food spending account, residents have the freedom to choose where they eat.

The Birches Dining Room

No matter what you’re looking for, the Birches dining room has it. Available to all residents, this dining room offers menus that change weekly, with heart-healthy choices always available. Menus are planned based on popularity, resident requests, and local availability. Residents are also welcome to try the Elms Dining room for the same restaurant-quality dining experience.

The Birches Café

Residents looking to satisfy their appetite without committing to a full meal can stop by Briarwood’s newest dining spot: the Birches Café. With snacks and drinks available all day and a comfortable atmosphere to sit and chat, the café is the perfect place to relax with a book or grab a bite to eat between activities.

Wherever you decide to dine at Briarwood, you’ll be welcomed by team members who are committed to providing a delicious meal along with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Invite friends and family to share a meal. Sit back, relax, and eat to your heart’s content. You won’t want to miss our cookouts on the open-air pavilion and annual clam bake!

One of many reasons I find Briarwood so pleasant, having lived in Worcester for most of my life, is meeting people I’ve known through the years. In conversation at dinner with someone I will often find that we have mutual friends or acquaintances.

What do I like about Briarwood? What a simple question! I really, truly like everything. I loved my cottage, but now I’m so happy in my cozy apartment. The meals are great and so graciously served. All the amenities are wonderful too. And best of all are the people, the staff and the residents. I feel so lucky to be here!!!

I have lived here for ten years. I have never regretted my decision to come here. Folks are so friendly and we feel like a family. There is a lot of maintenance needed to stay in one’s own home – and I don’t have to worry about any of it!

We looked at close to 13 communities to determine what we liked and what we didn’t.  Briarwood has neighborhood settings with personal gardens and walking paths, cultural & educational opportunities, local museums & theater with transportation to the door, a world of music within this city, 10 minutes to world-class medical care, a continuum of care on the same campus, friendship and social activities that brighten the days and the spirits, and a warm, communicative, responsive and efficient staff….we said YES to Briarwood!
