What every good neighborhood bar should be. No scene, no expectations. If you want to take everything as it comes and come as you are for a casual night of fun -- this is your place.The magic of this place is that everyone will feel like a regular here. The bartenders make sure of that. Order a beer and saddle up to the bar to meet a new friend. Who knows, you may be sharing a pitcher or doing shots with them by the end of the night. Yes they have food, varieties of drinks, etc. Don't overthink it. Just go and have a great time!

This is a cool bar with a lot of regulars clearly and everyone knows everyone. First time for us here as a friend who is a regular here invited us.You order your food and drinks at the bar and they bring the food to your table. They have karaoke which makes it fun and lively though beware sometimes some over enthusiastic people might come and take your mike and start karaoke-bombing you lol! Happened twice to us! Prices are very reasonable- hubs got a hot dog and fries and I got the grilled chicken dinner with salad instead of fries and the total came to like $31 with tax and tip for the food!! Hubs enjoyed his hot dog and the fries were hot and crispy really good! Grilled chicken was okay but it was a good portion size and I finished it all.We got cheap parking through SpotHero in a nearby garage for only $13 which was awesome especially for downtown.

This is one of my go to bars if I'm looking for a dive-y vibe in the middle of downtown Boston. The beer is always cold and you can get a pitcher for 14 dollars. The bartenders are always very friendly and treat you like a regular. My favorite spot is around the back on the other side of the bar where you can play some darts. If you get hungry while out no worries the food here is actually pretty good and I would recommend the Buffalo wings.

This place is awesome for being in the hub of the city. It's a gem that most people haven't discovered. Good pub food at a very reasonable price and the Budweiser drafts you can't complain about. People are very friendly and the atmosphere is amazing with eclectic people who might wander in by chance.

Great little bar tucked away in Downtown, Boston. Bartender Tes was super cool and accommodating. Cool, inviting atmosphere.

Not bad, and they got 'gansett. Probably should have lighter color walls to spruce up the place, but what do I know

A nice local hip spot for drinks. Typical bar food. Have to order at the bar and they bring food to you. Wings are good, nachos are meh. Not an ideal place if you're looking for dinner. Would come again for drinks.

Nice local bar and the owner really know how to run this place. The wings were amazing and crispy . Drinks was good and we had a blast coming here to watch the games. One of the best local bar around boston.

Recommended for food and drink pre-orpheum show. Zero frills but Good service and good food. easy and enjoyable

This is a local downtown bar with great food. It's a fantastic place to watch a game on their many large TVs. The only issue is like everywhere there are not enough staff to handle the tables. One poor guy was the only bartender and waiter! The steak tip salad and $4 beer were superb!
