Kelly AJuly 29, 2015Americas first sports bar, partially owned by Dropkick Murphy's...in Boston!!!! Ahhh! Great music, too! This place is where it's at!! Love
Ben KreegerJune 21, 2018Great mix of local Boston pub mood in a touristy area; great for someone like me that wants to be a fly on the wall when I’m new in town! Also, damn — try the mac and cheese with pulled pork.
Rob SpecialeMay 13, 2013On a busy night if you are looking for a little quiet head downstairs. If you want entertainment, watch people as they come down the stairs. Trust me, it gets better as the night goes on.
Eric ODecember 23, 2015Named after Michael "Nuf Ced" McGreevy, the leader of the Royal Rooters - the Red Sox fan club in the 1910s. His Third Base Saloon was Boston's original sports bar - and is now McGreevy's!
Owned by one of the Dropkick Murphys, this is a "Grab a beer and watch the game" sort of place.
Katja U.September 21, 2014had the cider-braised pulled pork burger and it was the best burger i've had in a veeery long time
McGreevy's original "Third Base" saloon was located at 940 Columbus Ave, near the Roxbury Crossing T stop and close to the old Huntington Grounds, where the Boston Americans (now the Red Sox) played.
One of the best Sports Bar/ Irish Pub in Boston. Good food and great staff!!!

Pat AddamsAugust 22, 2014their onion rings are made with a sauce that is a mixture of BBQ and Horseradish, ask for them with deep fried pickles and a pabst
WyngspanJanuary 22, 2014A lot of history served up here along with great brews and food. Give America's first sports bar a trust rating on Wyngspan:
My favorite bar in Boston. Grab a pint of your favorite beer, watch the Sox or B's, and order the Mac and Cheese.
Karla WDecember 1, 2012Get the fried calamari. Best I've tasted in a while. Really nice waitresses too!
John MillerNovember 16, 2017The comedian was funny. But we had a group event upstairs in the back and it was a nice setup. Food was better than average bar food.
James DyeJuly 10, 2011Dropkick Murphys owned sports bar (1200 steps from Fenway). great for pre game burgers and beers. aaaand French fries and gravy. bomb.
Chicken wings are great and you never know who might be here!
Major League SoccerJuly 12, 2011McGreevy's 3rd Base Saloon is a traditional Irish Pub dedicated to Boston sports. Join Revolution fans' here and support the club. McGreevy's is an official pub of Major League Soccer!
Sam MertinsNovember 2, 2015The reuben was good, but the Guinness was better. Would love to stop in before a Sox game.
Mike PMarch 12, 2012Come in on a weekday afternoon before work lets out. The bartenders are hot, awesome, and very personable.
Lynn Crisci-Lynn JulianMay 3, 2013turn in your business card here for a chance to win a free "not a happy hour" party for friends!
A Boylston staple, without a doubt. Always an interesting but fun crowd. Never disappoints except when they play Green Day back-to-back.
Alexandra LaurinJune 6, 2011Never EVER order a Birthday Cake shot. Even if its your 21st.. Been there, done that :( Also, tip Caela well. She's awesome :) Read more
Always a fun time. Management is cool and bartenders make awesome drinks
Henri MakembeNovember 22, 2010The calamari is fantastic. Well-fried and slightly spicy with a mix of pepper and sausage. I highly recommend it.
Matthew MontanaAugust 13, 2013They put on the Dodgers game for me here! Awesome! Dodgers fans, come here!
Andrew EJuly 23, 2011What an incredible spot for Red Sox fans. Tons of historic memorabilia. They're not here to mess around
Every Monday they have 10 cent wings. Surprisingly, they are plump and delicious too... Also have $3 tall PBRs and bud drafts
Tucker PearceAugust 4, 2010Sitting in the front window in the summer with a Harpoon IPA is rather refreshing. Great people watching...
Darren EvansOctober 28, 2011Owned by Ken Casey of the Dropkick Murphys and mere steps to Fenway! Nuf Ced!
Kelley is the best bartender in Boston! Great service every time she's on the bar.
