Whats not to love? Great food and drinks and the place feels like home. It is small and cozy and a great place for sunday brunch where they play live music (a good volume, not loud) with no cover fee. Go on and support this pub. Great for families with young children, too.

Best Irish pub in the Boston area. Bartenders were super friendly, music was just the right volume, and the beer was fantastic.Edit: Went back for brunch recently and was blown away by the corn flake French toast!

Great Irish pub. Fish and chips were lightly battered and so fresh! The scallion garlic potatoes were the best mashed potatoes I ever had. Great service too!

I came here in a large group for dinner and drinks on a Sunday evening. The tables are seated first-come first-served and thankfully one of the window booths was open for us to get seated immediately. I got to try the fish chowder ($16), druid chips ($9), and shepherd's pie ($20). I was a huge fan of the fish chowder! It was creamy but not overwhelmingly heavy, and the clams they used were big and fresh. The pieces of cod and salmon were small but still noticeable. If you are not feeling too hungry, this is a good dish since the portion is pretty solid as a meal on its own. The druid chips were tasty. I liked how the fries were very crispy and seasoned perfectly. Our table was a bit divided on the curry because it had a strong tomato flavor and also happened to be quite sweet. I would recommend getting the curry to try it, but you can also get the fries by themselves for $7 if you don't want the curry. I have both great things and not-so-great things to say about the shepherd's pie. First, the lamb was tender with the perfect amount of fattiness. The pie had a decent portion of lamb which made the dish worth it for its price. However, the mashed potatoes had a grainy texture to them that suggested that the potatoes were previously frozen (either the mashed potatoes were thawed from a frozen batch, or frozen potatoes were used to make them). This ruined the dish a little for me because the potatoes were such a prominent part of the dish. The flavor of the mashed potatoes was great, but unfortunately I could not ignore the texture! I was a little worried that the live music would be too loud for conversation but my table heard each other fine. They were extremely busy that night so the servers didn't check on our table very much. We did not mind this, but if you would like more service then I would recommend going on a weekday or less busy time.
