• Irish • Back Bay
Booked 11 times today
During our recent visit to Boston, we stayed in the Back Bay. We felt like a pub dinner and went to Sweeney’s. We were seated in a booth in the bar. I ordered clam chowder, hardly pub-fare, but just what I needed. It was by far the best clam chowder I’ve ever had. It had whole duxbury clams in the shell. It was absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the curry rice bowl which he enjoyed immensely. Not traditional Irish pub food for either of us, but really good choices. Service was prompt and friendly. The iced tea was fresh brewed and also above average. Highly recommend Sweeney’s on Boylston.

• Speakeasy • Leather District
Booked 21 times today
Overall the offsuit was a vibe, the food and drinks was delicious; we got the steak frites and it was perfection, their nuggets were like upscale McDonald’s lol my bf and I love our drinks, he got the radio silence which is a great take on an old-fashioned and I got the lost in translations is a take on a good moscato D’asisit. the service was nice, friendly staff and I loved how intimate the aesthetics of the speakeasy was, great for dates or a night to catch up with friends.
