50 Best Pubs near Quincy

“My nonprofit group enjoyed a private party at Tokenfire. The hot appetizers were a great start to the party, with meatballs, pork dumplings, the best brussel sprouts and savory flatbreads. We enjoyed the authentic Shepherds Pie, perfectly grilled salmon, and a vegetarian pasta dish. Dessert, including a fig bread pudding with salted caramel gelato and tiramisu was fabulous. The service was excellent and the ambiance was delightful. I hope to return when they have live music.“

“Great food. Awesome service“

“I love going to this place, and we always enjoy the food, service, except today I request a glass of water with lemon, and the waitress brought me a plastic cup with water and lemon, sorry I don'tdrink water in a plastic cup, so nicely I ask her to change it to a glass , and she was polite, no problem, but next to us was sitting two elderly couple that since we walk in they were very upset because we sit in the next table, and as I was asking the young lady for a regular glass ,this older lady was talking trush about me, and the fellow who was sitting next to me though that because we are Spanish,we couldn't speak English, he respond the lady that Ibwas trush, I respect people, we are educated, and I didn't said what they deserve to be told ,because my parents educated me, I was raised here in Massachusetts, and probably have more manners than this old cauple, they show their true color, racist, think they own every space in the earth, shame on them, if they are so afraid of Spanish people they should not go out of their shell, I been living in Massachusetts for 55 yrs. I don't need to feel uncomfortable in any public place because of few pigeons that cannot leave at home their racism, they are ridiculous, we are in 2023 United State is not only for morons like them, the restaurant is nice, and service is great, probably this young girl is new, don't know what happen, she was nice , but like always there are people that shoyld mind there own business.

Parking: Plenty of parking..“

“Paddy Barry's Quincy is truly a remarkable pub, earning a solid 9 out of 10 rating. Stepping inside feels like being transported back to the lively atmosphere of a pub in Cork City, right by the quay. The energy is infectious, with the sounds of laughter and conversation filling the air. You'll also have the pleasure of encountering craters with incredible stories to share, making every visit an adventure. And let's not forget the talented musician who always graces the pub with their guitar skills, taking the ambiance to new heights. We are incredibly fortunate to have a pub of this caliber in Boston and the surrounding area. And when it comes to the perfect pint, Paddy Barry's Quincy undoubtedly delivers the best in the South Shore“

“Great sushi with good flavor combos. I enjoyed all my rolls (tokyo, omori kaigan, jalapeno toro). Reasonable prices and if you spend $50 they allow you to choose a free app. They offer lunch specials. Nice surprise was that they offer fried ice cream as a dessert, and it was great. Have been searching for a replacement place for fried ice cream since my last place no longer offers and this is my new spot! Service was good.“

“Love this place, food is superb. I've been making my way through the menu, and I've yet to find anything that hasn't been terrific. Highly recommend the Hot Chicken Sandwich, all the eggrolls, and the HUGE salads.

Bartender is always great, courteous, and makes a great cocktails.

Would go out of my way to stop in here, if it wasn't already a new regular spot for me.“

“Fun crowd having a few songs and drinks.“

“While traveling around the Northeastern states, we kept seeing these restaurants, but didn't know what they were. For our final night in Boston, we jumped on the subway and went to Quincy's 99 Restaurant. Lots of choices of foods at very reasonable prices. Monday Night Football was playing on the TVs, so it seems like a sports restaurant.“

“Stopped into Biddy Earlys again recently, It is such a classic old time Boston pub. It’s hard to describe it, but you know the feeling if you’ve ever been to a place that serves good food cold beer. to Bostonians!! Highly recommend getting there before some corporate place sweeps that away. Thanks for a great time.! Staff is awesome?“

“Solid choice for an upscale bar experience with decent food and drinks.

When The Fed opened a few years back, it stirred up plenty of hype after being named one of the best cocktail bars in the nation. I missed it during its initial hype, but recently had the chance to drop by for drinks and dinner. While it didn’t quite have the grandeur of Grana, it offered a similar touch of luxury with cozy couches circling the central square bar—plush, stylish, and perfect for unwinding in style.

As expected, the menu here felt a bit overpriced, though pretty typical for a 5-star hotel restaurant. However, the food quality didn’t quite live up to its reputation. They stuck to classic dishes without any interesting twists in ingredients or sauces—perhaps a bit too simple for items like the Fed Burger, Lobster Roll, and Crab Cakes. Honestly, they weren’t much different from what you’d find at upscale taverns around the city but came with a higher price tag.

The fries, lightly dusted with Old Bay seasoning, were a nice touch and probably my favorite part of the entrées. The burger was decent, though lacking in veggie toppings, and the patty leaned a bit dry. The Pork Belly Bites and Clam Chowder were our favorites—especially the chowder, which is hard to get wrong.
The cocktail menu offered some interesting and creative options, but the execution was just okay. As for the service, it was probably the biggest letdown—after taking our order, our server was MIA until we flagged him down for the check.

While the Financial District doesn’t have a lot of cocktail bars, I’m not sure this would be my go-to spot even if I’m in the area. For a better experience, I’d recommend heading to Vermilion Club instead.“

“Great menu, atmosphere, staff, and drinks! Excited to see some life back in the place.“

“Had lunch at Crossroads today with my wife and every part of the visit was great. From our attentive server Rachael to the incredible scallops wrapped in bacon appetizer to the hearty portions on the fish tacos. Excellent meal, reasonably priced, and great service. What more do you need?“

“New to town so tried out “The Banner”. Good ol fashioned Irish Pub! Usually you walk into a pub and you get looked at your first time by everyone for being the new guy, but felt very welcomed! Guinness was ice cold, and properly poured just how I like it! Barkeep was personable and attentive! Music was perfect volume and classic! Love this place!“

“Went to night shift brewery the night before thanksgiving with basically my whole family and I couldn’t have asked for a better night (despite losing at the casino) The entire experience was amazing. Vibes were incredible. Adam, the bartender, was the most fun and welcoming server I have ever had. We all agreed he deserves a raise.“

“Good food, great drinks, good ambiance and the prices are very low“

“Just had dinner with my friend Christine at the Mooring. Her Steak Tips and the entire meal was perfect and so was my Turkey Tip dinner. The server was very cheerful, friendly and took care of the entire bar, Drinks, Food, Keno everything! Absolutley awesome job. Compliments to the Chef, he apologized because it took a bit long but there was no need, It was delicious.“

“Go on Karoke night. The is a woman who sings “green eyes lady” that blew me away.

“A great pub for the MIT community and their guests. Beer n wine at well beyond reasonable prices. The staff is friendly, there are games to play, the view of the Charles River is grand and it is housed in the iconic Walker Memorial building.“

“Chelsea Massachusetts is where the United States gave up...? trash city, trash buildings, but then I walked in for a beer....I forgot all about the mold growing in the department store door basement just 1 door down.....Awesome staff and cool vibes (deco)“

“I go here to grab a quick breakfast while I'm in Boston twice a week. Morning glory is a simple eggs/hash/banger plate, well priced, and always comes out quick and perfect!!

All staff interactions have been awesome as well!

A while back I had sliders and they were great too.“

“Good music and drinks lol“

“This dark looking speakeasy has a deceptive entrance on the street. The bar tenders know what they are doing - they made me an excellent Old Fashioned, and everyone else enjoyed theirs drinks too. The heavy wood paneling gives it a sober and sophisticated atmosphere. A great place to enjoy a cocktail or two.“

“The corned beef sandwich was amazing! Super friendly staff too!!“

“Came here for a date night, spent a few hours here and all the staff were amazing. The GM checked on us several times and our sever Katy was probably the best server I’ve had in a long time. It’s rare to find good service now days and this place doesn’t miss. A true testament to the leadership in that restaurant.

The Brussels sprouts were AMAZING!!!“

“Great place, friendly barman, and live Irish music. I was planning on hittin’ other pubs tonight but decided to stay here because it was so awesome!“

“A chance walk by led to a beautiful experience. All Irish pubs in my future will now have this as a measuring stick. Two words Bangers & Mash…my gawd!!“

“gr eat food grade service“

“First visit, so we got two of their specialty flights, each containing four small pours of their local beer, chosen especially for summer time. One flight was IPA focused, and had a range of moderate hoppiness, along with one juicy, in-your-face over hopped wonders. The other flight featured a delicious raspberry sour beer, plus an addictive "brewtini" beer cocktail. Service was so friendly and welcoming, and I liked their outdoor beer garden. We brought lunch from a neighborhood restaurant.“

“Great food and great service“

“Great local bar with solid drinks and great food.

Among the bars near Harvard Square, Abbey is my first pick for a laid-back drink on a patio. It’s just far enough from the noise, with reasonably priced drinks and, best of all, seriously good food. While the menu doesn’t push creative boundaries, they do the American bar comfort food done right.

Small bites like the Bacon Deviled Eggs and Pulled Pork Egg Rolls were tasty, but the entrée department was where Abbey excelled. Both the Salmon and Cod were outstanding—honestly, some of the best entrées I’ve had at a bar in recent memory. Each had an impeccable texture, almost as if delicately poached. The Salmon, paired with heirloom tomato risotto and a basil pesto vinaigrette, had a pleasant touch of acidity. Meanwhile, the Cod came with a potato scallion pancake, perfectly crisped and soaked in a shallot cream sauce, which added just the right crunch and salty punch to elevate the dish beautifully.

The crowd at The Abbey skews a bit older compared to some of the livelier Harvard Square bars, but it’s worth a visit f you’re after a more laid-back, cozy bar vibe. It’s popular among the locals, so if you’re hoping to snag a patio seat, I’d recommend going during off-peak hours.“
