    How this guide works

    Sources, not hearsay

    Every listing has a source

    Each entry links to the official page, organizer, or reporting we checked, and shows the date we checked it. Town data comes from the Town of Medway and the Commonwealth first, and from local news when something changed recently.

    Picks are earned

    The short list weighs ratings and review volume, press recognition and local reputation. There are no paid placements. If a place closes or slips, it comes off.
