Vanessa VFebruary 14, 2013Chowder! Is great! I think they forgot the potatoes. All clams!! What really?? I will NEVER complain about that!
Gianna NebbiaJanuary 26, 2014My Guinness stew tasted like canned soup and the Reuben was just eh. I thought the food should've been better for a place in such a good location and with such an authentic Irish pub feel.
Gerald RheadApril 9, 2013Neat Irish Pub. Had the baked Haddock and it was incredible. Tried some local craft beers too and they were excellent.
Cameron RyanMay 1, 2017Try the Fries w/Curry. The menu is typical bar food. Most of the staff is actually Irish. Good place for an end-of-the-night pint.
If you work in the area, this is a great lunch spot. The chicken fingers are beer battered and incredible.- Get "Taste of Ireland". Portions are big and delicious. Here is what it looks like: http://instagr.am/p/RTF899HD37/ . It's bigger than you think.
Eric OMay 9, 2013This place feels a lot more authentic than most Irish pubs. You might even have to ask for the Sox game if there's a big football match.
Bryan LeeOctober 21, 2013Try the Guinness Onion Soup. Best thing when there is a chill in the air. And the place is open late.
Matteo ZanolliSeptember 20, 2013Good prices and great dinner! The haddock is delicious! Staff is very friendly!
- Try the Guinness Beef Stew - Gotta love a little Guinness in your stew!
Brandon F.December 19, 2011Harp and Smithwick's (pronounced 'smɪtɨks' to you tossers) is on tap. Drink a pint if you want a semi-Irish experience.
Elaine AlmquistNovember 28, 2012The chowder is stick-to-your-ribs, drive-away-the-cold-wet-New-England-winters good.
Hard RockerSeptember 18, 2014Didn't have beer. But the shepherd's pie was good. Comes with a large salad.
Taste ParkPlazaJuly 28, 2010Try MJ's chowder and curried chicken finger sandwiches at Taste of Park Plaza (paired with William Hill Chardonnay). Read more
I had T-Mobile cell service here. It must be where you sit.
David BOctober 21, 2017Nothing too original, lacking in flavor or seasoning. Service was nominal. Pass.
