Pillory Pub - Plymouth, MA

Pillory Pub is located at 72 Water Street in Historic Plymouth Massachusetts.  The pub is just a stone’s throw away from the famous Plymouth Rock Monument.  Street parking is available as well as several parking lots within easy walking distance.

As we walked in, several patrons were tossing a game of darts, other groups were seated at the nicely set up bar area imbibing cold summer beverages watching the wide screen TV, while others including several families were enjoying their lunch seated on comfortable pub style chairs in the dining area.  At the front the pub is an additional row of chairs in the open air area of the pub that face directly out to the harbor.

The Pillory décor is very pub like and family friendly at the same time.  Wall hangings representing vintage beers and craft breweries, Massachusetts town signs and plaques representing local organizations are placed around the pub, all under slow moving ceiling fans.

Seated at our table we immediately noticed the great beverage menu located behind the bar that is hand written on a chalkboard featuring an impressive offering of 16 draft beers ranging from local craft breweries to  American adjunct lager beers (ie: Bud Light, Pabst Blue Ribbon, etc.).  Their ABV content, sizes and cost accompany each beer.  An additional area of “Craft Cans” and bottled beers completed the menu.  There are also card menus for summer drink specials and drinks celebrating Pillory’s 5 year anniversary.  A nice selection of wines, ciders and hard seltzers is available for the non-beer enthusiast.  Free WiFi is available with the password written at the top of the menu.  Very impressive!

Our Waitress, Toni, brought us the food menus and took our draft beer orders of Mayflower New World IPA, New Belgium Fat Tire, Bad Martha Vintage Summer Ale and Shark Tracker Lager.

Pillory’s food menu offers a variety of starters, salads, munchies, wraps and sandwiches, along with several lobster dishes, but simply put, the hot dog is king!  Over a dozen styles are available and after making some tough decisions, we settled on Reuben Dogs, German Shepard Dogs, Coney Island Dogs and BLT Dogs.  All are prepared with creative condiment combinations that represent the name of the dog and were delicious!  Side dish selections included chips, cole slaw, or baked beans.  We all chose the beans that had a tremendous spicy flavor that perfectly complimented the dogs.  We must admit that we doubled down on our order when Toni stopped by to see how we were enjoying our lunch!

Pillory Pub is famous for their hot dogs for sure, but additionally, the friendly staff, relaxing environment, reasonably priced menu items and extensive beer offerings make it a fun and relaxing place to enjoy your lunch while overlooking Plymouth Harbor.
