Not sure if we went there on an "off night", but the service was unpleasant to say the least. No staff acknowledged our group for 10 minutes until we finally went up to the server and asked to be seated (the venue was at half capacity). When we asked for the large booth the server with the nose ring snapped at us: "there's NO WAY you guys are all fitting in there" despite it being a large size. I had to go up and ask the bartender for silverware because our server did not provide us with any - we ordered the breaded fish and taquitos. The fish was solid but the taquitos were bland and chewy, similar to those you'd pick up in the frozen aisle of the grocery store. It is a decent place to go with a large group but not really worth the price.

Fryer was out the day we went so a large portion of the menu wasn't available. OK selection of beers as long as you like IPA, sadly nothing dark on tap. Ok space but nothing special to remember or go back to experience

We met a group here and had a nice time. The staff was great and the food was very good. My only complaint is that it is very overpriced. We went to Trillium after and basically had the same things as we had at Lord Hobo and it was just as good but almost half the price. If you are into beer then this place is solid and you will meet great staff but your wallet will feel it.

Too many IPA's for me but the lager and the Irish were pretty good, unfortunately they cost $10 for a 14 oz shaker glass. Of the three different meals we had none were very good. There are better options nearby.

Just a short ten minute walk from the convention center, and you'll find yourself at the best place for upscale and redefined pub food. Stop going to the small boring places in this area and take your taste buds on a trip! This place was jamming with classic tunes and comfortable tables. The service was one person holding down the fort, but handled it with ease. Food was fast and delicious. Would return here again many times over!

I'm a fan of lord hobo beers and this brewery has solid food as well. My disappointment with this place stems from the fact that it's very much not kid friendly. For example, there are no changing tables in either of the bathrooms. Not a big deal unless you have kids under about 2. Perhaps that isn't the target demographic and I get that. But trillium, mighty squirrel, and others in the Boston area have the same target demographic and accommodate kids. Furthermore, I learned that the manager of this particular location has purposely elected not to install changing tables in the bathrooms despite both customers and employees voicing the need. So, moving forward, I now associate Lord Hobo beer with being made for those younger and without kids. Right or wrong, this will negatively impact my returning to this brewery and purchasing lord hobo beer in stores. I hope the manager of this establishment takes ownership and accountability for the fact that he represents Lord Hobo as a whole.

Food and drink was good. I could not believe the price (not listed on menu) of their rotating flight. $27 for 6 4oz pours. Just list the price to prevent otherwise good experience being soured.
The beer is great! Cocktails are good too. Would recommend just getting drinks here. The flatbread pizza I got was not fresh and tasted like a frozen Elios (no hate to Elios it gets the job done.) It came out on an extremely hot plate and had definitely been under the heat lamp for like 5 or 10 mins

Best fish & chips I've had in Boston. The boys really liked their checkerboard sandwiches too. The beer is very decent too. Directly across the street from the Hampton Inn Seaport, so no problem enjoying the brews and getting back to my room!
