    What's great about it is its not upscale. Reminded me of a '70's bar, dark with paneling, much like a basement. The service and food was great, the beer was cold, and the live music was a great bonus. I was visiting Boston and wanted to go to a local scene, and this more than fit the bill.

    They used to have live music and a speakeasy/Frank Sinatra vibe and now it's just more of a typical bar with sports on TV. Nothing wrong with that, drinks were good and staff was nice, but very different than it used to be. Granted I am old now and hadn't been in a few years but I was sad there's not a band anymore.

    Great Sunday brunch venue with friendly services and live Sinatra music. Great enjoyment in a well hidden lounge on a cold day! Brunch selection is good as well. Haven't tried dinner.

    Though, presenting an official (German) ID-card we wouldn’t get access to the restaurant - without any further explanation besides that they only accept US ID-cards. After a $15 cab ride and with no indication online that an ID-card is required to enter, we decided to go next door and have a splendid bbq. Not gonna come back - promise!

    No cover charge, and $9 well mixed drinks. It was a decent place. Young crowd, but the Friday night I went there was no live music or DJ.

    Great Sinatra Brunch! Food was great, service was a little slow. We definitely would have ordered more food and drinks if we had been asked or attended to just a little more. But overall it was a great experience!

    My boyfriend and I stopped in for drinks before our dinner reservations at a nearby restaurant. We didn't eat so I can only speak to the drinks which were very good. Our bartender was great. The bar has an old school feel to it with a Sinatra theme. I had only hoped that Sinatra would be playing but instead the music playing was modern. Didn't ruin our time but just would have made it more of an experience.

    Nice atmosphere, good live music (shout out to Kaliloops), and you must try the nachos. It's just a MOUNTAIN of the good stuff! -Professor Bugman

    Tried to go to comedy night, bouncer claimed that my real ID was fake and I would have to call the police to get it back, so I did. They showed up and got it back, but the bouncer continued to insist to them that it was fake so despite the police telling them it wasn’t, I was told that I still wouldn’t be allowed inside.

    Whether you want casual conversation or time to yourself, Matt the bartender can accommodate you...comfortable atmosphere where you're transported to another time in the below ground lounge, Lucky's has stood the test of time.

    We stopped in one evening, as it was close to our hotel. It was amazing! We LOVED the dive bar vibe. We did go early (4:30pm), so it wasn't crowded (which was awesome). We had a good half of the menus apps, and split them all between us - the Nachos and chicken wings were both incredible. HIGHLY recommend. Staff was amazing, service was quick, food was awesome, vibe is insanely cool. We will definitely be back next time we're in Boston. (Probably multiple times to be honest).

    It's my favorite place on the planet. I've been coming here every year I hit up Boston for PAX East. Amazing food, awesome service, and drinks! Plus the location is full of history and if you're someone who picks up on vibes it's full of historic ones.

    Classic dive bar/club. Food was reasonably priced. Can't say it stood out significantly but it was solid. This place gets busy! Great place to meet new friends or go for some music/dancing.

    What a funky, fun place to enjoy a Sunday brunch! The dishes were great and not too much. And the trio performing Sinatra covers thoroughly enjoyable.

  • 5/5 Katelynn M. 2 years ago on Google
    Highly recommend swinging by here for food / drinks. Bartenders are great. Music was on point. This little place has been here forever and love going here every time we are in the area.

  • 5/5 Eyal H. 2 years ago on Google
    It was a nice place, had decent food and drinks. Live music was really good. At the risk of sounding too old it was slightly too loud for my taste some might not agree. So consider that if you want to mostly chat. Overall I can recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Ed W. 2 years ago on Google
    Came on what was normally meant to be a slow Monday but turned out to be a slammed night. There was a decent live guitar player doing good things in the corner and their draft beers went down smoothly. Cannot recommend the shrimp and grits more highly. It was complex and tasty with excellent gumbo flavors. First time eating here, will be back!

  • 5/5 al l. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic local bar! Great live bands. Definitely go!

  • 5/5 stonemansrs 2 years ago on Google
    Feels like a dive bar but in the seaport. Nice live music. Good memories.

  • 5/5 Noah J. 2 years ago on Google
    We went kind of early in the day so it was pretty quiet. The poutine was great as well as the couple cocktails we tried. The staff was also very friendly.

  • 5/5 Ron B. 7 months ago on Google
    Went in around midnight on a Thursday, was very clubby at first but calmed down after around 30 min. Managed to get two seats at the bar and ordered cheese fries and the meat lovers pizza. It was genuinely incredible food and especially incredible for what time it was. Service was punctual and friendly even during the busy part of the night. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Damien B. 5 months ago on Google
    Last of its kind in the seaport , good food and great drinks at a great price. If you want to talk sports, ask for Shawn he is the manager. He will not let you down. Great atmosphere!!!!

  • 5/5 Emily P. 2 years ago on Google
    Our server was great. We had fish tacos, southwest salad, pulled pork slider and grilled chicken sandwich. All food was fresh and excellent. We were sad that we were not able to stay for the entertainment. We had heard it was a great show. The manager helped get us back to our hotel by arranging an Uber for 4 older folks who had no idea how to use the app.

  • 4/5 David P. 4 months ago on Google
    I am quickly learning that every "standard" restaurant in Boston has the SAME MENU. Steak frites. Fish and chips. Flatbread. Clam chowder. Nachos. Chicken tenders. Etc. That being said, fortunately they make those items pretty well at Lucky's Lounge. The nacho's were terrific, the grilled cheese was excellent, and the tomato bisque is really good. Great music on Thursday nights, too, Conscious Reggae Band. Recommended.

  • 5/5 seintmike 2 years ago on Google
    This place was great. Bar was nice. Want to try the food next time. The artist playing last night was great. Wish I could have got his info!

  • 5/5 Mark C. 6 months ago on Google
    Lots of nooks and intimate spaces to meet and have a few, at least that’s what it feels like even if you’re a large crowd. We loved it here. This was one of my favorite hangouts in the area.

  • 5/5 Brittany K. 5 months ago on Google
    Andre is the best! Not only is he an amazing mixologist, but he went out of his way to make us feel welcome. Making us special drinks, offering up various shots, and he even made a rose out of a napkin. 15 out of 10. Coming back here again and again.

  • 5/5 Ames C. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this restaurant and bar. The energy is fun, people are friendlier, the staff is good, and the food's good. I had a Caesar salad and fried pickles there last night and it was really good.

  • 4/5 V 10 months ago on Google
    Very fun atmosphere, lots of people around and the server was nice. There are two sides of the bar and it’s pretty lowlight in there. The food portions are huge! I got the burger, sliders and nachos, which was pretty standard. The music can get a bit loud at a certain time but that’s just kind of the vibe that people are going into.

  • 5/5 Jeremy D. 1 year ago on Google
    Found this place by accident. Thank God. We had some great food and good drinks in a nice location. Staff was great, super friendly. Food came out quick. Had a great time. Highly recommend the chicken sandwich. Enjoy

  • 5/5 Rebecca L. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was phenomenal. Drinks were delicious. Entertainment, while a tad loud, was great, although I will say that I'm more sensitive to loudness than most of my friends and they loved it. Staff was very friendly!

  • 5/5 Ari L. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome location and concept. They charge a general fee and all games are free to play. Their model works because it’s a fun environment to drink and hang out with friends. Extremely friendly staff. It’s like Roxy’s 2.0 if that makes sense

  • 1/5 J N. 11 months ago on Google
    I mean… this place sucks… There was an group event here. The bartenders were just ignoring customers. I asked for a drink. He pointed in the other direction telling me I got to ask someone else… I eventually just gave up and went home. Would have added to the bill but the people working here just didn’t want the work. Anyways their loss not mine. Won’t be coming back anytime soon.

  • 1/5 Paco G. 4 years ago on Google
    Bad experience... We were waiting outside in the cold weather for a long time. The drinks were expensive and bad. Do not recomend, doesn't worth the long waiting.

  • 5/5 Meggan M. 1 year ago on Google
    The bar/ lounge topped off our trip to Boston. The general manager, Nelson checked on us twice to make sure we had everything we needed. The drinks, live music, and fun atmosphere made for a great night.

  • 5/5 Ryan W. 1 year ago on Google
    Great cool dive. Good friendly service. Solid drink selection. Live music one time I was there. Remodeling a bit, I'll check back sometime again.

    Great spot for casual drinks and great food! The only true drive bar in the Seaport area. This is my go to for a fun time and/or a late night any day of the week

  • 5/5 Doug R. 1 year ago on Google
    Retro dive stylings, amazing pub food and great daily specials make this place a hidden gem. Can’t wait to go back!

  • 5/5 E. S. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved it. Atmosphere was reminiscent of an old, underground gentlemen's club that got invaded by college kids. Came there for my (belated) birthday dinner. Staff is cool. Drinks are good. Steak and cheese was bomb. Will be back.

    I've been here plenty times but this was my first visit time sitting outside. The outdoor section is very cute. Good cocktails, chicken tenders are very tasty.

  • 3/5 Iza R. 3 years ago on Google
    Couldn’t stay in because someone in my party didn’t have a US ID on them. But seems to be a nice place to hang out with friends.

  • 3/5 Jon W. 4 years ago on Google
    Stopped in to have a few drinks and listen to some music. The place had a good crowd but there was also a private event going on in the back room. The music was good. I opened a tab and then got messages to head up the street to Row 34 for dinner, so I wanted to close my tab out. 2 bartenders and a bar back, one bar tender dedicated to server drinks and the other handling a full packed bar. It took me over 15 minutes to get the bartender to acknowledge me and close out my tab, even after asking the bar back if he could help make it happen. I don’t know if it always that crowded but if you go there and it is crowded, good luck getting service.

  • 5/5 Christopher F. 3 years ago on Google
    More bars should emulate this model. Good food, good beer selection, great atmosphere for just hanging out.

  • 4/5 Claudia M. 6 years ago on Google
    It‘s a funny diner in the 50s style, not that big and you have to make a reservation otherwise they are not giving you a table weekends. Food is good and staff is friendly. Prices are good.

  • 5/5 Andrea B. 5 years ago on Google
    The food and service was great! Be careful walking in the building.

  • 5/5 WakeUpWaffles 4 years ago on Google
    Went on Sunday, it wasn't too crowded, great place to hang out and enjoy the wide range of music to the drinks and the fun stories people tell. I greatly appreciate the classic musicians on the walls. Would recommend.

    Great bar, went on a Wednesday night and it was pretty busy, and not a lot of other places were open late. Drinks were good too, and they were pretty quick getting you the drinks.

  • 5/5 Jeffrey G. 4 years ago on Google
    Was just in Lucky's Lounge last Thursday. I wanted to read the reviews before I posted mine. I always have a hard time trying to understand how my wife and I (that are people of color) can have such a different experience than the people that have posted bad reviews that make it point to mention they are of color and make it seem that they had a bad experience because of it. We had a GREAT time. Our server was attentive and pleasant. The bar was exactly how it is presented. My wings were delicious my beer was cold and wife's wine perfect. To anyone reading this just be open to your surroundings enjoy the the moment. My only regret was not asking if they sell t shirts I would have liked one.
