    My favorite Irish pub in Boston! Great value for money, good food, quaint ambiance. A group near us was exceptionally loud, which can happen in a pub.

    Great authentic little Irish pub. Best one I’ve been to in Boston! Not American Irish, but actually feels quintessentially Irish. Staff and service were terrific (Ciara was fab!). Artwork and mementos on the walls were great. Watched Six Nations Irish match and it was a very pleasant experience with friends. Would definitely recommend!

    Food was good, Guinness beef pie was exceptional. Football games was on, loved that. They had live music, which was nice.

    It’s crowded and loud, because it’s got great food and probably great beers. The service is good but they’re sometimes overwhelmed, not unreasonable because of how busy they are! It’s my go-to for dinner before a show because I really love their Caesar salad & ham & cheese toastie!

    Always great food and a good pint of Guinness. We enjoy the friendly staff, live Irish music, hands down one of the best Irish pubs in the US.

    We had fish and chips, a rueben, and the ham and cheese toastie with tomato soup. Everything was absolutely delicious! The host/server was super nice. Loved the Christmas lights; too. We will definitely be back! Thank you
