Authentic food, great beer selection and live music every night.
John KOctober 23, 2014Great service even better food. Come Thursday night for the live music. Awesome.
Jessica HiemenzDecember 10, 2013Very good homemade veggie burger (unfortunately not vegan though, that option is limited to salads and fries).
Hands down the most beautiful decorated bar during the holidays. Stop in during December to warm up with the decor and a tasty pour (of Guinness, of course).
B HuttonAugust 24, 2013Try the Mr. Dooley's Red Ale- sam adams brews that specifically for Mr. Dooley's apparently.
Jack GoodSeptember 10, 2012If you miss Ireland, come here - seriously - great music, personality and drinks!
- HeathMarch 25, 2011Great Irish pub in the great city of Boston. Go for lunch and the bartender John is the best, cheers!
Guinness always tastes better here for some reason....they have Murphys too but always seem to be "out".
Best Guinness in Boston. Tastes just like the way it does in Ireland!!
Authentic and good food but don't come here if you r in a hurry.
