Reggae brunch before the Celtics game was perfection! We enjoyed specialty cocktails, fruit salad, an omelette, west end huevos and hash and eggs...all were delicious! The band was super fun! Excellent service all-around!

While the server was friendly he was very busy and not very attentive. Trying to get refills, pay the bill, took a very long time. The food was good and the ambience was great, such a short walk to the Garden and away from the busier streets in regards to a lot of people.

Can't go wrong with a trip to West End Johnnie's. We were running a little late and I messaged them informing them, which they said they would hold the table for us, which was great! Much appreciated. Services was great, along with the food. The lobster Mac and cheese is my dad's favorite. Great place to eat at.

Our waitress was incredible, it was very busy in the restaurant, and she made sure we were well attended too, fantastic place to eat before a game!

West End Johnny's always delivers a great experience and given his location. It's an easy stop before Celtics games. They seem to have some of the same staff year over a year, which is great to see.

This is the absolute BEST place to go before an event at the Garden!!! The food is great! Incredible bourbon selection, but also tons of great beers and other drinks and the service is fantastic! It’s my go-to every time before a game. Go here and thank me later. 😎👍

Nice looking bar. Empty on the 1st floor. We went for " Back to the Video store" ,pop up event downstairs. The guy that gave us oir tickets was nice and informative. The decor was cool and the music was good. They had two arcade games only one was working. They could have done a better job with the drinks which were watered down including my mocktail which was essentially lemonade. There was only that mocktail as a choice by the way. It was advertised as if there was more than one and there was appetizers. There wasn't. There weren't many options for drinks either which correlated with a VHS box to choose ur drink from. It was pretty fun but I feel it could've been better.

We visited their speakeasy, and it was an absolute blast! The drinks were wonderfully nostalgic, transporting us back in time. It’s definitely a must-try if it’s still available—an unforgettable experience!

Great meal before a show at the Garden. A bit too loud, but everything else was great.

Came here for the back to the future "speakeasy". Whike not a true speakeasy, it was a lot of fun and had a lot of nostalgia reminiscent of Blockbuster and other things of that time like slinkies and video games (mortal combat, N64). It was a lot of fun. They did have a lot of popcorn memorabilia nearby so I kind of wish they had offered us some popcorn. The drinks were movie themed and yummy. We couldn't help but get a second round. It's definitely an experience to do once, but maybe not necessarily multiple times.

Food was decent. We lost our appetite after seeing multiple baby mice running around. Staff didn’t do anything about it except clean up dirty dishes from a table and wipe the crumbs on the ground. They also never checked in on us after we pointed the mice out.
