When Albert Pappy Pica opened up Pica’s Garden Nite Cafe in 1939, he had a vision. He wanted it to be a place where the community could come together to enjoy great food at a fair price.

Just as Pappy would have wanted, Pica’s continues to be a local watering hole for the people of Merrimack Valley, so we hope you’ll bring the family by for dinner, or grab some friends and join us for cocktails.

One of my go to restaurants when looking for a fun night out. The menu has a lot of variety and spices up a lot of classic food items which I love. They also recently opened a second building for take out and ice-cream which is very nice. Everything I have had from here has tasted amazing and I will continue to come back regularly!

Just tried for three first time. Fun selection of food, and it was fresh! The setting is on the louder end. Only complaint is it is a little crowded for seating.

I have always heard great things about the place. Stopped in with my neighbor for a late lunch. It did not disappoint. The experience was great. Seated promptly. Staff was super friendly. Place is clean and modern. We both ordered their special burger which was cooked perfectly, juicy and just the right amount of toppings. The side of onionrings was so so. Little over cooked and hard. It’s hard to find good onion rings. They also have a separate building not attached but next door for ice cream, subs, and sandwiches. Also has corn holes game area, a mini putting area, and an outdoor patio, which I will try and update next. Always a reasonable crowd, and I see why. We’ll worth a try if you’re in the area

Our server was wonderful and very attentive, she was extremely friendly. Food was delicious. Beers are a little pricey $10.50 for a 16 oz draft.

I’ve been here so many times and always forget to leave a review. Until now. The food here is delicious and different from the typical “American” bar food. The drinks are amazing here as well! There are a few vegetarian options but there could be a few more in my opinion.

Food was mediocre, small portions for the price. Service was fine, we went with more than an hour until close and felt like we were intruding, staff were putting up chairs more than 15 minutes before service ended. We will not be back.
