Bootleggers and Topless floozies: What More Could You Want In A Dinner?

Topless Floozie from Bootleggers Prohibition Pub in Worcester, MA

It took me a while to find the front door to Bootleggers Prohibition Pub—they had relocated it from the last restaurant incarnation EVO that was there. That was just the beginning.

As you walk into the entrance, there is a lovely person waiting to seat you. She led us into the main dining area where you would immediately see the giant bar right in the middle of the main room. Lots of seating around it. I have to say, that if we weren’t there for dinner, I’d definitely like to hang out there drinking some moonshine!

We sat down at our table (hand made by Al and his dad) and looked around at the new place. It has a more rustic tone than it’s predecessor. Lots of wood and warm tones throughout. Photo’s of the past and images of prohibition line the walls. A nice touch. We had 16 in our party and there was plenty of room for us and the regulars that were there.

I ordered the Topless floozie burger it was described as a ½ lb flame grilled spicy buffalo dry rubbed Angus beef with cheddar cheese, coleslaw and a fried egg over medium. I did ask them to cook my egg over easy as I love the runny yoke. Everyone that knows me, knows that I love an egg over pretty much anything. Adding it to my burger was fantastic! I ordered it medium rare and that’s what I got. It’s amazing how often most burger joints will overcook them. Not here. Perfect! Having looked around the room at the others who also got burgers, they seemed very happy with their choices. The burgers are large and very filling.

As my side I ordered a small bowl of chili. Well, it seemed more like a large bowl. I’m glad I didn’t order a large! It’s nice to have the soup as a side as opposed to just salad or fries.

I ordered a Midnight Moon Blackberry Moonshine on the rocks. I love me some Moonshine and it didn’t disappoint. Thanks Chef Al for your recommendation!

The young lady who waited on us was very nice and offered suggestions if we had any questions and seemed to know the menu well. She was very pleasant and easy to talk with and got our orders correct. To be honest, I didn’t have much time chatting with her as we were all carrying on conversations with everyone around us.

Overall, I’d be happy to stop back in for a burger and Moonshine. I’d love to eat at the bar and chat with friends here. It’s a warm atmosphere and the food is good with some different offerings than many other local places.
