Went here for St. Paddy's. Didnt have to pay a cover. Good spot to go late at night if you don't want to have to go all the way to Downtown Boston for nightlife options

Exception staff, food, and one of the best Guinness pours in all of Boston. Also has an incredibly cozy interior with live music on the weekends. A true Irish pub outside of Ireland. I couldn't recommend more! A+

The Monday night open mic hosted by Tim Ko is phenomenal! Any night of the week a great place to grab a pint and catch the game or music. ?????

Such a gem! Finally stopped by for cocktails and a light bite the other night and Porter Belly’s exceeded my expectations! Prices are extremely fair with generous portions and high quality ingredients. The atmosphere is so cozy and comfortable. Will definitely be back more often!Vegetarian options: Tomato soup was delicious!

4.5/5 Chicken Nachos 3.75/5 Dark and Stormy Came here late on a Tuesday night with a friend when there was torrential rain after dinner. Good place to meet up with friends for a drink or to watch a game. There are TVs throughout the place, not just at the bar. Will have to come back to catch a live music performance that they mentioned happens on Monday nights. The interior of the place has a cozy feel as the lighting of the place is on the dimmer side and has string lights. Service is standard like any other bar. You go in and seat yourself and go up to the bar when you're ready to order. I had a dark and stormy and chicken nachos. Would recommend the nachos. Good portion for the price! There's street parking outside that usually is available. Otherwise, the side streets have ample parking as well.

I’ve was kicked out of this place for the first time of my life because of my SERVICE ANIMAL. The manager was very rude and arrogant questioning the purpose of his dog and not allowing him in the pub. She should know better this is against the law and we are definitely never coming back (we were frequent customers).

I tried the Korean fried cauliflower, bacon cheeseburger egg rolls, ribeye steak tacos, and fish tacos.Food:The Korean fried cauliflower was delicious, fried with a sweet garlic soy sauce, served with some mild gochujang sauce on the side. If you're looking for something healthy or spicy, this probably won't be right for you.The bacon cheeseburger egg rolls order includes two rolls, each cut in half. It comes with comeback sauce on the side, which tasted like ketchup, mayo, and maybe a few other ingredients mixed together. The skin of the rolls had a nice light crisp. The rolls were absolutely delicious, at the cost of consuming a lot of grease.The tacos had generous portions of protein in them, but they weren't standouts to me. The tacos are made with cold soft flour shells, which I would have preferred heated. The steak also could have used a little more seasoning, but it does come with some very spicy habanero sauce on the side. The fish was the better option in my opinion. Each order is served with a side of rice and beans which was made perfectly fine.Service:Our server, Taylor, immediately greeted me as I walked in and was friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout our hour there. She checked in regularly despite being the only server and bartender for about five groups of diners on an early Tuesday evening.Overall:For a bar, their food was definitely above average. I wouldn't hesitate to return and try their other menu items.
