I came here on a Saturday evening to watch the MLS match advertised on the pub's website. I told the host we were here to watch New England face Nashville in MLS so she seated us facing one of the TVs and we ordered drinks. A few minutes pass and the drinks arrive, I ask a second time for the advertised MLS match. The waitress returns to inform us they have no way to stream that match. Bummer! Why advertise it on the website then? Also this pub is featured on the teams' website??
The beer was cold and the pretzels were good for what its worth.

I came to Boston for the first time and stumbled upon this restaurant located near my hotel.I had an amazing chicken slider and a lychee margarita. Our waiter Dylan made the experience super smooth and we were very pleased with his service. The atmosphere was also a plus! So recommendable.

I think the two male bartenders have watched too much of the gay hockey show (nothing wrong with that! It’s so good) and have been talking nonstop for 35 minutes while I try and order.

The food here is fresh, savory, and perfect alongside a beer. The atmosphere is a classic Irish pub that can be a bit too loud when crowded. The service is not great, our food and drinks were messed up twice and we got served the wrong order. The fish and chips is the signature dish here and I recommend.

Be careful if you have an allergy. Not all ingredients/toppings are listed on the menu. There was an item, which I’m allergic to but isn’t normally in a salad, that I told my server I didn’t know was going to be in it after it was brought to me. Then I didn’t see him for the rest of the time there. Luckily I’m not deathly allergic but weird that he didn’t even ask if things were going to be okay and that he vanished. Ended up with another server who was super nice. Wasn’t a bad experience over all and would probably go again. I just now know to ask them the ingredients

Our second visit here. It’s such a cozy place. Especially on this snowy morning. Had omelets and a traditional English breakfast. Potatoes weren’t very warm , but overall delicious. Will return.

I’ve been here a few time and the bartenders are brutal. Just a couple of day one staff members every time you go in it seems. Haven’t tried the food. Good vibe though.

It was two days after a snowstorm -- the restaurant was very quiet. Unfortunately, it did not have heat! Our server was very good. I would recommend the chicken pot pie. I got the Wee Pie Flight -- and the chicken pot pie was the best of the flight. My friend had the chicken sandwich and she enjoyed it. Great location; very convenient.
Elephant and Castle is more of a sports bar dressed up as an English pub. Everyone was friendly and helpful however the appetizer came with the meal. Everything tasted like it was reheated not cooked fresh ... Rubbery rather than crispy. Disappointing for dishes like fish and chips and pies. Snakebite had too much seltzer.

The service was excellent and the food delicious. Prices were so reasonable. Would highly recommend it.
Great for a couple of drinks. Food is good and good value. Easily accessible from the red line
Great meal. Hubs had fish and chips and I had falafel roll up. Both were great. Wait staff was friendly and efficient, crowd was energetic.
Really great spot with good food and nice vibe. The drinks were too strong but that’s a preference. Parking out front made it easy in Boston on a Saturday night. The comedy show was fun too.

Its a really quaint place, the venue is nice and the kitchen delivers good dishes. I dont like how there are televisions everywhere broadcasting football and baseball the whole tine for such a small space, it makes it noisy and unpleasant. One tv is playing one topic with audio and another tv with another topic. Its messy. Please reduce this.
