Veronika PefferlyJuly 22, 2015Boston'a best fish and chips! And the atmosphere at the top of Boston Commons is superb! Read about the namesake Robert Emmet while you are there :)
Nijat MammadliNovember 7, 2014Nice pub to spend cold Fall and Winter nights at Beacon Hill. Their Guinness tastes good. Best Irish pub in downtown area.
Nick HolroydMay 13, 2018When the Guinness arrives with a shamrock in the pour, you know you’ve chosen the right Irish bar for a pint.Upvoted Jan 9
BeckyNovember 10, 2010this place houses most of my grad school memories. order a magners & the dublin smoked turkey sandwich with a side of curry dipping sauce. dip. eat. get drunk with friends.
Ask always for the specials. They are always better than meals in the menú.

Jared CSeptember 26, 2012Great pub in the heart of Boston. Not too crowded and modest pricing with a good beer selection.
angela whitbyJune 23, 2012Fish and chips is the best we've had outside the UK. Irish breakfast is excellent.
Enrico ManaloMarch 28, 2018Haven’t had the food, but it’s a cozy little pub with a chill atmosphere. Decent selection of beer, but nothing too out there.

Chris Van der MerweApril 23, 2011Seafood casserole for $17?!?! Bad bad bad! Filet-o-fish is a better deal.
