Here, before a Bruins game, I had the best chicken pot pie in my life. It was huge, and probably should not have been consumed by a single person in a single meal, but was a wonderful, buttery thing with a potato bottom "crust" and golden pastry top. Oh my.My husband equally loved his beef stew and devoured the bread bowl. like all four year olds, our little one loved her chicken fingers, which were golden and tasty with perfect sauce, and didn't have that pre-frozen character. We happily helped her nibble them a bit. Decent beer/cider selection for a small place, and definitely our next hockey meal, if not a meal without hockey. Decent service too (busy as it was before the game). So full!!! I had to drink coffee during my hockey game instead of beer.

My colleague and I tried to find a bite to eat before going to the Celtics vs Heat Game (Round 3 of playoffs). We found McGann's Pub on a side alley. FUN!We both ordered the Fisherman's Combo plate ($13.95) - deep fried shrimp, fish, and calamari. The seafood was placed upon a bed of thick cut fries and accompanied by a dollup of fresh cole slaw. Food was good, given that it was bar food. Service was super friendly! The place was crowded and it oozed with a team spirit!What I liked best was that Budwiser was there at the pub running a special - if you drink a Bud, you get a choice of a Tshirt. Guess who walked out wearing a Bud Celtics tshirt, and got a bottle sleeve cooler and a mardigras Celtics Beads?!

The atmosphere and staff are not very welcoming here. We stopped to get a drink after the Celtics game the place wasn't too crowded. We sat at the bar and waited a few minutes before the bartender took our order. We ordered basic drinks so thankfully the bartender didn't mess that up, but his attitude was very unwelcoming, almost like he didn't want to be there and clearly didn't want us to be there because that meant he had to work. We stayed long enough just to finish our drink and then decided to leave to another bar.

Stopped in before a concert. Was going to get something small but saw the steak tips on someone else's, table so ordered that. Two at my table ordered rare and i ordered medium rare. My steak was more medium. But the food was good. The mashed potatoes were excellent and very tasty. Atmosphere is very pub like, music playing but could hear ourselves talk, and somewhat close quarters and womens bathroom, while clean, was out of soap for quite awhile. I would definitely go here again and have already recommended it.

Popped in before a Celtics game last week. I have never been here before so this review is based on only one experience. The staff was friendly (especially the hostess), the service was fast, and the bathrooms were clean. Beers were good and the prices were fair. However, the food (at least what we ordered) was disgusting. We got the sliders and the Irish poutine. The sliders were the most overcooked meat I've ever eaten. The burgers tasted like cardboard. Surprisingly the cheese somehow was not melted. And the buns, which I think were hot dog rolls cut in half, were stale. The poutine was gross. The fries were soggy and the gravy was basically water. I'll definitely go here for drinks, but I this is not a place I'd ever eat at again.

The bartender Paul is probably one of the worst bartenders I have ever encountered. I was around the area to watch a Celtics game. Was ordering and Uber by the doorway but of course there was a ton of traffic at the doorway. I decided to walk in! I walk in my ID gets checked and I walk up to the bar and the bartender Paul tells me "I can't serve you Bc ur weird" I was the only person of color in this whole bar. How am I weird? I am of age and I'm a paying customer. Guess you don't want business.

No. Bad service smelled like pot rude. Ignored us. Maybe for locals only? Any way we went right next door to Porters and I have a cocktail in front of me before I can even finish this review. Guess everybody can have a bad day-

I found myself here at McGann's Pub before a Celtics game (my first in fact!) in late February. Figuring I'd find a restaurant relatively close to the TD Garden for a bite before the game, I was happy to come upon this place. Dodging the snowflakes and mountainous piles of snow, I hustled inside. The place was busy, as was to be expected, but was seated shortly after entering.Seated might not be the right word though... The hostess brought us to a table with two stools (almost all the seating looked like this) that were so squished in between the other tables there was only enough room for one of us to pull a stool out and sit. The hostess promptly walked away as my boyfriend and I got on each side of the table, moved it, assessed that there was still not enough room for us to sit, then paused as a very kind gentleman at the next table over got up and moved his own so that we could both fit. Finally! A seat! (thanks random dude!)Watching the time, we put our orders in quickly... then waited, and waited, and waited some more. Just the drinks would have been fine to pass the time, but we waited a while for those as well. In the interim, we were approached no less than three times with other peoples food and drinks. It's like they'd send the server out from behind the bar or kitchen and said "just guess... its one of those 5 tables over there". Eventually I saw our food carried over so I gave a quick wave to be sure he knew where to head with my much coveted order. The food itself was quite good. We shared an order of buffalo wings... they were just spicy enough for my taste and were gone in no time at all! I ordered the Mac & Cheese (as it was a comfort food kind of evening) and enjoyed the blend of baked pasta with carmelized ham. My boyfriend ordered the steak tips and said they were "5 stars" on their own... apparently worth the wait!As my rating entails, this place was "a-ok". The food was great but was balanced off with the disorganization and lack of customer service when it came to seating and the like. Everything is way too close together making it difficult for even the waitstaff to get through certain areas without turning sideways or having their backsides brush up on other tables as they are taking orders. A bit to chaotic for me.

Stopped in one of our favorite places for a quick bite before the Boston Bruins game. Service was great. Place was packed. Order the chicken pot pie and wife ordered the hamburger. Although the burger was tasty, it wasn't medium rare like we wanted. The chicken pot pie was very good with plenty of chicken and vegetables. We'll definitely be back.

Be sure to double check your bill! Bartender let another party use my tab.Went here for a charity event where it was busy with only 1 bartender. Throughout the night I ordered 3 mixed drinks (2 for me, 1 for a friend), 5 beers (2 with drink tickets, 2 for a friend), and shirley temples for my pregnant wife. Got the tab at the end of the night and it was for:- 7 mixed drinks- 10 beers- 2 sodasTurns out the bartender let another party run my bar tab all night ordering rounds of drinks and then blamed me for it and said "If you find out who did it tell me, because now I'm out $97." No, you're out $97 because you messed up.She was unapologetic and it was a real struggle to get her to fix this. I do not reccomend this place.
