Ariadna GranéMarch 16, 2015Cool place for a burger and some drinks! Ask for the beer&cheese sauce! Around 20$ for dinner
Jordan PayneJuly 15, 2017The sirloin Bison with fried mash potato was delicious, with two beers and a glass of wine it seemed a little pricier than I expected but cool spot and very good staff, some nice sours on tap too.
The meatballs are great, but definitely try the burger. It’s the only one in Boston I don’t mind getting without cheese. Amazing beer selection and a wonderful bar staff make this place truly great.
Kangaroo burger special (vadouvan curry, vidalia onion confit). I substituted veggies for fries (mix of different beans and mushrooms) and added a side of salted English cucumber. Heavenly meal.
- Special - "Duet of Wild Game" - ostrich fan filet (inner thigh) + antelope filet (outer thigh), served w/ ragout of maitakes, cranberry beans & artichokes + black garlic purée & spruce. Exquisite meal
Martín CaballeroSeptember 28, 2019owner/chef Brian Poe is a chill dude. Why? He loves Boddington’s Pub Ale — so much that Boston brewery Harpoon made him a creamy pub ale of his own. Get a round of Poe’s Pub Ale and you can’t miss!
Mike DiPietroOctober 17, 2015Steak burger with the beer cheese sauce for dipping on the side is the move to make. Great selection of craft beer on tap.
Matthew SpectorApril 10, 2016Excellent bloody marys and a phenomenal turkey burger. Do the vegan stuff in addition to the inspired wild game skillets.
Mo DysonJuly 14, 2018A little on the pricey side, but if you’re just going to have a beer or two, they’ve got many to choose from.
- Tonight's special ... Black quinoa spiced kangaroo. OMG amazing! With salsify (puréed root vege i.e., oyster root), vanilla, beets). Kitchen open til 1:30am!
Craft Beer CellarApril 16, 2014"If it wasn't meant to be eaten, why is it so delicious?" The Tip Tap Room's exotic offerings (kangaroo, alligator, you name it) are all winners, as are their ~30 draught beers. Tell 'em CBC sent ya!
Leslie MartinSeptember 29, 2014The grilled avocado is amazing! It's loaded with chunks of lobster and fresh herbs. I'm sure the server picked the herbs himself, they were that fresh! I would drive from New York just to have this
Mateusz DzwonekSeptember 3, 2017Amazing steak tips 🍖 Mexican mocha is great if you like the mix of chocolate and chili 🍫🌶 Awesome brownie!!
Desirée MacDonaldOctober 18, 2017Delicious beers and apps make this joint stellar. Not a beer drinker? Chat with newbie Jay - he actually knows everything about beer and won’t lead you astray.
Curt JansSeptember 30, 2016Pricey but outstanding selection of craft beer, in particular some of the more rare and barrel aged types. The food was great too. Recom!
- Stellar service tonite in the bar tables area. I've been served by no less than 5 diff people in less than 2 hours & my beer has never gone empty b4 being asked for its replacement. LOVE this bar!
- Stephen SmartSeptember 12, 2016An absolutely fantastic spot. I loved my lamb burger and they had a great selection of beers!
Stacey IrizarrySeptember 24, 2013The 'Cheese & Cracklins' (Fried goat cheese balls with fried prosciutto and asparagus and carrot ginger sauce) was amazing!!! So were the steak tips!!
Johanna FritzAugust 24, 2014Had an awesome salad. Yes. Salads can be awesome ;) and although it seems to be more an after-work-bar, they also have a great kids menu.
Dan NahillDecember 26, 2015The brunch is absolutely incredible. Try the steak and eggs Benedict. Watch out on the Bloody Mary! It's super spicy.
Mike FrayneAugust 9, 2014Meat (game) specials. Superior tap beer selection (definitely 16-20 here) as well as good bourbon & scotch options
The four potato app is a mashed potato sampler, each of which is the mashed potato that corresponds with their daily tip entree. Only $5 for this taste of heaven!
Justin LuccioJune 21, 201236 Beers on tap, over 100 beers in total. This is the place to be! Great food...try the steak tip burger!!!
Ken MermoudJune 18, 2012Never thought balsamic vinegar and watermelon would be a good match. Well, try the Watermelon salad, and you'll see how good it is!!!
- Filip MaresSeptember 5, 2014Can't go wrong with the steak tips over greens and mashed potatoes. Delicious!
Sam HigginsMay 9, 2023Excellent place for lunch or dinner. Busy and fun atmosphere. Really good food and helpful staff.
The Stone Belgian strong. 12.12.12. Cute bartenders. Good afternoon beer spot.
Bryan Huck-April 6, 2013Try the Grilled Baby Bok Choy salad. Excellent! This salad has the taste of a full meal with a bit of spice. Not what I expected - 10x better!!
My favorite burger in Boston! Do yourself and favor and just get the steak burger. Great beer menu as well.
Jake SmithJanuary 25, 2015Tread carefully in regards to the Grilled Corn side dish. It is essentially corn topped with shredded cheese and hot sauce.
Greg DoyleMay 20, 2021Overall pretty good. Maybe slightly overrated and overpriced but menu, though small, is interesting. The Italian sausage burger, yes burger, I got was very tasty. Also like the garage door windows.
Pal DosanjJuly 20, 2014The food is great... BUT, don't forget your ID or you will not be getting any alcohol (since when do I look younger than 21?)
David KerrAugust 13, 2015Many tips on the steak tip and they are right... My veggie Mrs had the summer salad and enjoyed it.
Manuel Ernesto AlmaguerMay 16, 2015Excellent food, service is not that good. A lot of cocktails, it is a good option but place is small.
Christine Del CastilloMarch 22, 2014Rock shrimp comes in little crispy noodle purses of love. Delicious. Solid appetizer.
- Kimberly GlasgowDecember 27, 2013Tried the llama burger with goat cheese. Llamas- cute, fluffy, and delicious . Who knew?
Craig DesmaraisSeptember 16, 2014Try the kangaroo burger to put a little hop in your step. Great Beer menu
great fries and drinks. The bee's knees is awesome. Love the open air.
The Tips are fantastic. Also just order lots of appetizers and skip entrees.
Loved the lamb burger, and our server Sofia was incredibly personable. Good times all around!
