Sally O'Brien's

Labor Day weekend in Boston for work, and my hosts brought me here after dinner at a German restaurant nearby. In my travels I see a lot of "corporate" pubs; this is not that. It's a local watering hole type place, with an easy vibe. A loquacious patron whose name I did not get told me the owner was sitting at the other end of the bar, and I believe it, because it felt like family inside, like a real Irish pub.There was an incredible band playing Irish music with no cover charge, and the drink prices were very good. Add in good bartenders and a dog-friendly patio outside, and you've got the best Irish Pub in Boston, IMHO. Glad to have found it; hope to return on next visit. Very fun night, and highly recommended. OMG I'm starting to almost like Boston.

A down to earth pub with live music and plenty of adults (not youngsters) dancing. I wanted a burger, and ordered at the bar and found a table. It didn't take long, I think we got there about 9:10 and the kitchen closed at 10pm. The burger was exactly the kind of burger I was craving. Meaty, tender, potato bun, good fries, and definitely not frozen! They had all the fixings on the table and the burger even came with a kosher dill pickle spear. Really hit the spot on a later Saturday night!

Excellent. We were here on a Friday night, and there was live music. It was excellent. And fun. The fries were fantastic. We got the extra curry thing. Amazing. Highly recommend. Great vibe.

Went on a Saturday night for a local artist. $10 at the door.Had dinner and was enjoying the music then literally I felt like I was in church. Someone went around with a long basket on a poll asking for "tips".Was disgusted. I'll never go back.

Good food. Awesome staff. Music 2-3 nights a week. Rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Music is awesome, love Duppy Conqueror's, Chelsea. Urge and the general chill vibe of the place....

It's simply amazing food with amazing service. The atmosphere is spot on and the owner is an absolute gentleman. What more can you ask for?!Lunch or dinner, you're foolish not to treat yourself at Sally O'Brien's !

Great live music early on Fri, Sat, & Sun eves so the 'oldies' crowd can get out, dance and socialize with a really nice group of people who love music - and they can be home by 10 :). The staff is friendly and attentive. Love this place, love this music!

I went to see a show, we ate. I got the curry fries and they were perfect! I loved my whole experience, thank you!

The friendliness, free live music with dancing and lots of local folk having a good time. This place deserves to survive! You can drop in, hear a few tunes and go on your way
