Hello all! Though we're happy to see the phases of re-opening moving forward, we've decided to wait just a bit longer to open up again, instead of doing only outside seating. We will be re-opening at the end of the Summer season. We feel that this is the most responsible plan, both for our business and for the safety and health of our guests and staff. Thanks for your patience, we WILL see you again soon! Stay safe and take care, ♥️ From all of us from Carlins Restaurant

About Us
Carlins Tavern has been serving local patrons and travelers from afar since the end of prohibition in 1933. We are located in the heart of downtown Ayer, just 100 feet from the MBTA Fitchburg / South Acton line, just one mile from Fort Devens, an instrumental WWII base, Carlins Ayer has been welcoming our friends and family back home for decades. The Local town bar, known as the "cheers" of Ayer, where regulars are like family and new faces are always welcome! We have a small yet accommodating staff, and customer service is our top priority. We invite you to and enjoy your stay at our establishment, in hopes you return and bring a few more of your friends!
We have recently updated our look for the better, making a brighter more comfortable atmosphere for patrons. New bar tops, islands, and flooring. Stop in to see our change and tell us what you think!
