This place was very cute, they had good food for their prices and easy fast service! I thought it was good for pub food. They have a solid clam chowder and good Caesar salad.

Had a great dinner here ahead of a show at the Emerson Colonial. Wasn’t too busy at 5pm, was promptly seated, service was fast and friendly, and the food was great (steak panini special and a burger).

Food was lack luster and bland. Server missed one opportunity to order a drink with her partner, but otherwise, was attentive without long wait times

I can't speak to the food because we never got to order. The host didn't want to seat us at any of the open tables and told us to sit at the bar instead. We sat at the bar for 10 minutes waiting to be greeted by the bartender who was behind the bar the entire time. Eventually we just left.

Food, drinks, service, and price was excellent. Definitely would return next time I'm back in Boston. “There’s no fireplace like your own fireplace.”

This place was great! Lively (and quite boisterous!) atmosphere, but fun. Our waiter seemed disinterested, but the other staff were really friendly and treated us like friends. The food was good. We had the clam chowder, bangers and mash, and fish and chips. I liked that they used real British sausages for a really authentic flavor. Really pleased to have found this spot before our show.

I was very dissatisfied and disappointed at the food and service in my first time at this restaurant. I went to the one in Summer St. during a conference. I ordered my food a medium well burger and when it arrived the first time to my table it was the wrong order..they must have given me someone else's sandwich. The 2nd time it was rare and then the 3rd time it was burnt to a crisp. The waitress apologize but did not comp my order and no manager came to the table. I can assure you this was my first and last time at this restaurant.

Great food. Great service. Quite possibly the worst music I have ever heard in a public space.

Pretty awful experience. The atmosphere was more like a hotel lounge bar than a pub, the $20 Guinness was an awful pour (didn’t let it rest, poured like a Sam Adams), the Jameson shot was definitely not an ounce, and the food was really unremarkable. For all the great food in Boston, this is just an embarrassment.

The highlight was that our Uber was slow to get there, so we were able to let several parties who asked that they should go somewhere else.

Came here to watch the Michigan football game. Great vibes with lots of alumni and the game on all the screens. Tasty bar food and attentive service. Unfortunately, the horrible music blaring in the background is bringing everyone down, including the staff, who confess they are tortured by the same playlist every day. Not an overstatement to say it’s the worst bar music I’ve heard in my entire life.

I got the mac and cheese and an Orange Crush cocktail. Both were really good. The staff was nice and the restaurant was nicely decorated.
