Craft Beer CellarNovember 26, 2013One of Boston's best beer spots, there is something on tap to please every palate. Stop in at Craft Beer Cellar later to take home a mix-pack of beer from your favorite brewery/breweries! Read more
UntappdAugust 20, 2011The password is: craft beer. This speak-easy has craft beer galor and 5 beers on cask at all times. Best cask beer selection in Boston.
Boston.comDecember 13, 2012A stylish, metropolitan bar with a New York vibe might not seem like a haven for craft beer, but Stoddard’s has emerged as a theatergoer’s destination with more than 20 oft-rotating taps. Read more
T GApril 10, 2019Super nice staff that recommended a delicious local lager. I had the rib eye with mashed potatoes and asparagus, probably the best rib eye I ever had. Really recommend this place!!
Aimée Jane ParrJanuary 3, 2021I liked this place as it had a traditional British/Irish pub vibe. We opted for a local pint and fish & chips. The food was good but the portions seemed a little small and pricey. Sports channels on.
Rachel PowersJuly 26, 2015Swanky and stylish, Stoddard's has an amazing selection of craft beers and sophisticated atmosphere. Check out the bar in the basement when the main floor gets busy.
Jeremy KrantzAugust 13, 2014Great craft beer selection and pretty good food as well. That being said, don't order their Gouda & cask ale fondue, it's not nearly as good as it sounds.
Niki BlakerJanuary 14, 2018Great for drinks and good ambiance, but my experience with food is that it's frozen / pre-prepared. Would come here for cocktails only.
Sofia PapastamelosFebruary 1, 2013Delicious burgers and wonderful selection of craft brews. Can get busy on the weekends so make a reservation if you are coming for dinner.
thoughtbotAugust 31, 2013This is the closest craft beer bar to our Boston office. They have some of the most knowledgeable bartenders (Jamie and Dan) in Boston.
Christina TamerMarch 15, 2012Fun place, good food. Wanted to try some cool beers but our waitress couldn't recommend anything. She said we could ask for samples so we did, but she brought us full bottles. Get better waiters.
rabinSeptember 15, 2013Excellent cocktails. Try the Zombie if you want to fast-forward to dancing naked on a table - ace but strong drink :)
Solid lobster roll here. Bread is thin (good) and they add a little bacon on top for good measure!
Dee AnnisJune 18, 2012Great selection of beers on tap, and the Zombie cocktail is an irresistible combo with absinthe and flambeed cherry (among other ingredients)
Boston PhoenixJuly 20, 2010Entrées make great use of local rabbit and cod and heritage pork. This gastropub also serves a fine charcuterie plate with quail-egg sausage and rabbit ballotine, plus the best chicken pot pie ever. Read more
Sazerac and Boulevardier, both excellent whiskey cocktails and so well done here.
Great beer selection and upscale bar food. Can't go wrong with the burger.
Stacey BarretteMarch 31, 2012Was having a lovely evening downstairs in the bar until we saw a huge cocaroach scaling the brick wall. When we showed it to the waitress she insisted we be quiet!!
Ankur ChatterjeeMay 24, 2012Lobster Hush Puppies are spectacular here. Lots of beers on tap, but the cask ales are served correctly (read: a bit warm).
Jenny MackintoshMarch 25, 2012If the downstairs bar is open, don't pass it up. Make friends with the bartender and order a Last Word. Herbaceous and refreshing.
DO NOT come here & order a Bud Light or a Sam Adams. Get a beer on tap - so many delicious, everchanging options & nice bartenders to recommend something for you. Read more
Meaghan HinderMarch 15, 2014Swordfish special atop sun dried tomato grits & kale celery salad was outstanding.
Eric OAugust 30, 2013Since the taps are so spread out and change so often, you'll want to ask for a draft menu.
Dart DartAugust 15, 2010Hmmm rabbit is delicious, huge beer selection ( however no Czech beer, but that it is not a big problem :-) and great deserts... Oh and nice retro interior
Chris FosterMay 4, 2016Nice beer selection. Bartender misheard my drink order though so kind of a loud place. Good for groups though.
Ari SchaeferApril 27, 2012Stay and eat. The duck was delicious, Pricey, but worth it if you're looking for great atmosphere.

Stoddard's Fine Food & AleDecember 30, 2014Good Morning beer geeks. We are open tonight at 4pm & tomorrow we will open for lunch at 11:30am.
Michael TroianoJune 19, 2021This is more a bar than a foodie destination. But it's Old Boston, for good and for ill.- Stacey BarretteMarch 31, 2012Was having a lovely evening downstairs in the bar until we saw a huge cocaroach scaling the brick wall. When we shows
If the bar is backed, check to see if the bar down stairs is open.

Zachary Bouzan-KaloustianMay 27, 2011The bathrooms downstairs are phenomenal... Pretend to walk in for a beer and bead to the back right, you won't be disappointed!

"Great cocktails... Try the rye flip, it will definitely give you some holiday cheer."

"The burger was one of the best I've had in a long time - the chipotle sauce was out of this world. Also open late and is one of the only places in the area serving food past 11 PM"
