J.J. Foley's Cafe

Extremely rude bartender. Asked about a missing pizza from our order he said, "you didn't order it from me" and turned and walked away. Ridiculous. If he doesn't work there in the future I would change my 1 star to a 3 or 4, but if he's employed there it stays a 1 for the obvious reason.

First time visiting Boston, this place was recommended. I've visited a lot of Irish pubs but this one stands out as not trying to out shamrock everyone. It's old school and it's cool with the men in white shirts and ties, hardwood bars, dim lighting and great seating layout. We both had fish and chips and I had a cup of chowder. Food was excellent. My wife said it's the only fish and chips she's ever had that was better than mine. Service was good considering they were covered up busy. As a rule we don't eat twice at a location while on vacation but this one is tempting to return to. Prices were very reasonable for a larger city. I honestly expected to pay double what we did. Highly recommended if you're looking for what an Irish pub is supposed to actually function like.

always good

It was a solid Irish pub. Food nothing special.

We’ve been to Boston quite a few times and not sure how we missed this Pub! What a great bar, good food, and friendly staff! We had the fish and chips and clam chowder. It was the best food we had this trip. Highly recommend. Family owned and operated!
