Tim O'LoughlinApril 27, 2011April 28th is the Friends of Boston's Homeless Benefit - great time and a great cause! Read more
Joan MatelliMarch 28, 2010The "reserved seating," for which we paid extra, is obstructed view standing balcony, Eff you, House of Blues! Never again!
Alicia UmbrinoDecember 14, 2012Apparently house of blues turns the lights and mic off if a band goes 2mns over their time limit. Bullshit
the second floor mezzanine has NO VIEW unless you're standing right at the railing.
Fatty with a FrapJuly 22, 2010If you here to enjoy the Deadmau5 show: jokes on you. Enjoy Jersey Shore Jr. Courtesy of all the little kids 8-)
Also, people really need to stop filming shitty vids on their cell phones and just enjoy the show.
Team CocoNovember 10, 2011"I love going to concerts here so much more than Boston's "House Of Polka."" - Conan O'Brien
This place is a total rip off. $6 PBR's? Really? That's just inappropriate. They tore down the Avalon for this disasterpiece? Just awful, hate having to come here to see a band.
Pavel LishinApril 3, 2011Don't buy mezzanine tickets unless you want to see the backs of people's heads.
If you have dinner at the restaurant or buy something from the store, you can skip the security line.
Tyler PetersenMarch 31, 2014Never attending House of Blues again. Incredibly poor customer service and no communication with customers.
Michael SprankleSeptember 29, 2011Total agree on the over priced drinks. $10 for a drink is outrageous. I'll stick with the 1 drink the whole night and remember to pre game if I come again
Chris RoskoNovember 12, 2010Absolute worst venue layout I've ever seen in 16 years of going to places from small to large, absolute worst, only one row of people can see
Sascha MartinNovember 27, 2010If your on the second floor they don't let you buy tshirts till after the show. Wtf.
JoniFebruary 21, 2014Terrible customer service. They dont tolerate anything but you standing there breathing.
Go to whatever lengths possible to skip the overpriced coat check. Don't bring a backpack, they will force you to check it.
Meg BarrettDecember 29, 2010If you can avoid it don't bother with upper mezz standing room tickets. It's a rip off and there isn't even real standing room! Just the wall behind the seats!! :(
Nicole KempsterNovember 4, 2011Are you a masochist? If so, feel free to go here! Otherwise it's the worst venue in Boston.
Ashley MessinaFebruary 22, 2010Not worth the money, was treated soooo rude. Kicked out twice for being 22 young looking and 100% sober. Couldn't enjoy the band. Fuck u house of blues never again. Tell friends forget it.
Kenny H.October 20, 2010I hate this HOB. It is too big no vibe at all and they have so many fucking rules. I hate corporations running clubs. Bring back a real club like the Avalon R.I.P.

"Probably the best large venue in the Boston area. Good seating, right on the water, and parking isn't bad either. Only problem is the $11 cans of beer."

"If you aren't able to attend a baseball game, definitely take the tour. You'll get to learn about one of the oldest ballparks in the country. Fenway Franks are bucket list hot dogs you must try!"
Megan McDonald - 6.7
"Great spot for groups. It'd big in there and the service rocks. If they are still doing the live band karaoke on Thursdays go check it out, it's awesome!"
Jeremy Krantz - 7.2
"Ribs, beef brisket, homemade chips, baked beans yummy. Chicken was a bit dry though. Pulled pork sandwich to. All generous portions."
