    Great British restaurant tucked away in downtown Boston. Always a great meal and great atmosphere. Definitely recommend checking it out. The hidden gem on the menu is the slumdog, a very unique and delicious take to a hotdog.

    I came here on a Saturday evening to watch the MLS match advertised on the pub's website. I told the host we were here to watch New England face Nashville in MLS so she seated us facing one of the TVs and we ordered drinks. A few minutes pass and the drinks arrive, I ask a second time for the advertised MLS match. The waitress returns to inform us they have no way to stream that match. Bummer! Why advertise it on the website then? Also this pub is featured on the teams' website?? The beer was cold and the pretzels were good for what its worth.

    I came to Boston for the first time and stumbled upon this restaurant located near my hotel.I had an amazing chicken slider and a lychee margarita. Our waiter Dylan made the experience super smooth and we were very pleased with his service. The atmosphere was also a plus! So recommendable.

    The food here is fresh, savory, and perfect alongside a beer. The atmosphere is a classic Irish pub that can be a bit too loud when crowded. The service is not great, our food and drinks were messed up twice and we got served the wrong order. The fish and chips is the signature dish here and I recommend.

    Be careful if you have an allergy. Not all ingredients/toppings are listed on the menu. There was an item, which I’m allergic to but isn’t normally in a salad, that I told my server I didn’t know was going to be in it after it was brought to me. Then I didn’t see him for the rest of the time there. Luckily I’m not deathly allergic but weird that he didn’t even ask if things were going to be okay and that he vanished. Ended up with another server who was super nice. Wasn’t a bad experience over all and would probably go again. I just now know to ask them the ingredients
