“In Boston during FB season and searched for a Packer Bar - BansheeBar kept showing up and when asking around they were the #1 recommended place. FUN atmosphere, met Packer fans from all over, bartender Joy was amazing and took great care of everything! Would absolutely recommend. BansheeBar Boston Packers Everywhere“

“Oh what a joy! A superb example of an Irish pub in Boston. Lovely beers, authentic interior with all the idiosyncratic touches you could wish for. Our host was friendly, professional and a real credit to the pub. My daughter and I are British and it was a truly home from home experience. Thank you 😁“

“I haven’t bn for ages although I know it’s the same owner who knows who’s who, I had great times in there with my father n his friends and many a nights with my friends , The IV is a Brighton treasure never any trouble and great ppl have always worked there .

“You of the best pints of Guinness in Boston“

“Live Music, Walking distance to the waterfront and historical sites. Great food! Awesome drinks and beers. A good place to hang with Friends! All the Staff are Friendly and Fun. This place is popular (For a Good Reason)... expect it to crowded, but worth it!“

“Driven by here many times. I live in the area and decided to try it out. They have a lovely open concept. It’s a real good Irish pub feeling. The food is GOOD too. We got a round of mai tais, they were delicious. Mai tai is one of my fave drinks and I judge them kind of harshly for that reason. The service was good. She was on top of it and very friendly. Able to handle many patrons at once. I loved it and will be back.“

“The best IRISH ☘️ bar in Boston! 💚☘️ Mary Ann Love 💚 you guys!“

“Came in on a Wednesday night. Bartender was friendly and quickly to be of service. Ordered a cup of the chowder and the bangers and mash.

The chowder was awesome and definitely not just boasting at the recognition it had earned and my only regret was not ordering a bowl. This was a great choice and I was sad to see it gone so soon.

The bangers and mash was also great and a solid choice. I think some additional gravy would have been good to go with the sausage and mash potatoes but I was happy to have gone with this option!

For my first time in Boston I dont regret going here and would recommend this to others!“

“There’s no better place to hang out for a drink in our Nation’s Capitol than The Dubliner. Before we get to the food and the atmosphere their Whiskey List deserves a special shout out. Divided up by Irish Whiskey style/category the list is like mini lesson in Irish Whiskey history. And do they have a great selection? YES Blended, Single Malt, Single Grain, and Single Pot Still - they have it all, and in a beautifully bound list. The Guinness is a very good pint here - 4/5 - with some grip of the head to the glass as it slides down the glass. I had Shepherds Pie for dinner and it was nicely charred on top with a well balanced gravy from first bite to last. Get in here! Sláinte“
