Highly impressed by their buffalo chicken wrap. Made just the way it should be - loaded with chicken, just a bit of lettuce and tomato and a little kick from the buffalo. Superior onion rings, too. Good pub in the Wollaston area, great prices and huge portions. Street parking but usually always open spots by the post office.

Hancock Tavern's food I feel is largely overrated. We ordered different meals and starters and we all came to the conclusion the food was rather bland where the only notable flavor was the grease from anything fried or from their pizza. Many patrons are rather older, so this may suffice to them.
The actual service wasn't too bad. There was a bit of quite downtime between ordering drinks and when we got to order food, but the server was very polite. The atmosphere is that of a classic dive bar there isn't really better competition for that in the immediate area.
Overall, if you just want to come in for some drinks and you're local, it's a good spot. However, I seriously recommend going anywhere else if you're trying to eat.

I got prime rib the other day. I asked for an end piece and I got a humongous hunk of medium well done prime rib. The meat was medium to well done but it was way too salty. Even Gordon Ramsay would have thought so. The sweet potato fries were crispy and good but you have to pay extra for them. The steamed broccoli was overcooked and mushy. The service was excellent but the noise level was extremely high and the patrons were boisterous. I did not have room for dessert.

If you can get a spot at the bar , DO IT. The bartenders are great And the food will come out super fast. But... when you sit at a table they are so terribly understaffed that the service is horrible. 45 minutes for an appetizer And it came out burnt to a crisp. Didn't even bother ordering dinner because we didn't have all night. Guys-- you REALLY need to hire more people to handle the crowd that comes in. This sadly isn't the first time in the last couple months we've had this happen , either.
Good local bar good food and great service

This has been consistently my favorite burger in the Boston area. The staff is great and the Hancock is a great place to catch a game. Try the fried pickle burger or if you enjoy some spice...go for the buffalo burger.

Stopped by about 11:15pm to try to have a couple beers and grab one of the bar pizzas. I guess the kitchen was open till 12 admitted by the bartender, she had to argue with the cook to even put the order in as he was drinking at the end of the bar and didn't want to do it. I was disgusted with the back and forth said forget about it and walked across the street to the Chinese food place.
Owner may want to look at the sale logs after 11pm the cook could be costing you big $$.

First time here. It was excellent; the service, food, and pricing were all fantastic. For a reasonable time, there was only one female employee taking care of all the tables and the bar, and she was incredible 👍

Enormous plates of absolutely delicious pub food (a perfectly cooked burger that was so huge I could finish; the "best rebel I've ever had," my sister said). Efficient service in spite of the crowd. Almost too noisy for conversation.
