WOMEN BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!!!!! I was here for NYE and a man came behind me and physically shoved me out the way. very very aggressively. After my party’s confronted him he defended his actions aggressively, screaming at our group. Assuming women are safe here we thought he’d be asked to leave. INSTEAD, he went up to the bouncers and had us kicked out. Ladies, he was walking through the bar as if no one else mattered and making his own path even if it meant physically harming young women. He was an elder gentleman, short, with grey hair. please be safe and do not go here!!!
Overpriced, poorly made smash burgers.. music so loud, forget reasonable conversation... but hey, they have a 14ft TV.. or something like it. I know dive bars with better food. Should call it the useless bar. At least your employees were better than the bar itself. 2/5 stars is generous.

I never leave reviews but I came into the bar last night and it was incredible! The bar is decorated for Christmas and with Christmas music playing it just set an amazing tone for the holidays. The bartenders on the bottom floor were very attentive. Navayah was incredible, had great conversation, amazing drinks, and her smile never left her face. I will be back again!! Highly recommend!!!

The Greatest Bar truly lives up to its name—especially during the holidays! The third and fourth floors transform into a stunning Winter Wonderland, complete with festive décor, twinkling lights, and the perfect holiday atmosphere. It’s such a fun and unique spot to visit this time of year.
The energy throughout the entire venue is lively and welcoming, and the staff keeps everything running smoothly. The holiday-themed cocktails are absolutely delicious and add to the overall experience. Whether you're stopping in with friends or looking for a festive night out, The Greatest Bar is a must-visit during the holiday season! And for a matter of fact I would say visit anytime you want to have a great time!

Charged me $22 cover during a bar crawl that they were a part of. Should be a free cover during the crawl but the manager would not let people without charging a cover. Avoid their scam.

I had a ticket to the Halloween bar crawl and they still charged me a $20 cover. The manager told me and my friends he could whatever he wanted. Don’t go to this money pit.

How do you not have Jameson in Boston? Besides that, a fun bar! Fair enough prices for the location.

Fast,friendly,courteous The Survivor theme on the 3rd and 4th floor was just an awesome experience!!
Austin is hands down the most epic server ever! From the moment we sat down, he had the best energy — friendly, funny, and so on top of everything. He made the whole night feel effortless and genuinely fun. You can tell he actually enjoys what he does, and it completely rubs off on everyone around him. Our drinks never went empty, our food came out perfectly, and he made us laugh the entire time. Someone give this guy extra lives because he absolutely leveled up our night!
