Polar park is home to the AAA affiliate to the Red Sox. There are plenty of bars/ restaurants downtown near city hall and more on Shrewsbury st. There is axe throwing, barcades, parks, and various recreational things.

Public transportation. There are city buses which are currently free. Union Station provides transportation to Boston via commuter rail. This is limited in hours and does not provide for a night out in Boston with a late night return to Worcester.

If this is your first time in New England, everything is basically equidistant to Worcester... Beaches mountains, though not accessible without a car.

How are the beaches up there? And what is your favorite food spot there? I love food and never had a lobster roll before!

What's fun is that in 2hrs driving you can easily be in 5 different states because all the New England states are small in land mass compared to other parts of the country. And in that 2hrs you can be at beaches either in MA, RI, or NH. You can also get to a multitude of mountains in MA or NH. Nowadays worcester is itself a bit of a foodie town. The state is also has a bunch of craft breweries and cideries, many are within easy driving of worcester.
