    I came here with a group friends and I really enjoyed it here while visiting Boston. I've been hearing about this place for a while and wanted to check it out. It's a pretty big space inside and there's outdoor seating as well. Inside was a little dim but it was fine. I really enjoyed the salad I ordered the Greens and Grains with roast chicken and that was so filling and delicious. My boyfriend ordered the Big Chick. If you have not tried that from their Brunch Menu, I absolutely recommend doing so, it is so good! OMG. Also we ordered cake pops with ice cream and that was really good as well. Our server was nice as well and the service overall, was good! I would really love to come back and would recommend to everyone!

    An amazing bar for choice of beers but don't go for the food. All four were barely warm when they arrived. The pizza has obviously been cooked well as it was nicely browned in the crust so my guess if they left them after cooking. It's also loud but it's a big sports bar so expected.

    The servers were attentive and kind, the vibes were good, however, this is probably well known to everyone but me so let me caution the next person, don’t go here for the food. This place has a good drink selection, they have tons of beers and wines from what I saw but the food was worse than I could imagine. The rice with my salmon was hard AF, and not the good crunchy kind, same for my friends rice in her rice and beans. The salmon was over cooked, I have never had a restaurant ask me how I want my salmon done, it felt nice. That should have been a red flag. So overall, good vibes, cool place, terrible food. Eat before you come here or leave starving.

    A friend brought me here. Sat outside and it was the perfect evening for it. Great menu options, got the pretzels as an appetizer (can't pass up pretzels!) It took me a while to choose what meal I wanted bc I kept going back and forth! Ended up choosing the rigatoni Roma --delicious!! 🤤 Upscale vibes, without the upscale prices: Very affordable! An appetizer (split), a meal, and a cider was $45. Would definitely go again.

    Enjoyed a nice lunch here on a Thursday at 12:30p. People were friendly and busy as it was lunch hour. Our server took our order by memory and got it 100% correct. The food was good, atmosphere was nice. It was very busy and everyone I could see was enjoying themselves.

    Nice selection of rotating beers on tap and a healthy selection of some fantastic pints to pick from. Should be something for everyone, though a weak light with the dark beer selection. Pretty good selection of tavern foods and a couple options a vegan can make work. I went with the veggie burger without cheese or dairy and it was pretty good. They were very accommodating. The waitress was super friendly and attentive to the table. The ambiance was fine with standard dim lights and music. But it wasn't too loud where we couldn't chat across the table.

    Very good selection of beers, but quite a bit overpriced. I could see why this place would be fun, especially in the summer. They have lots of drinks, great location, big outdoor seating area, and a bunch of young, good looking people. Unfortunately, I'm neither young nor good looking, so it's not really my kind of place. Picture looked cool with all the snow, but obviously not a great place to sit at this time.

    Awesome place, friendly servers great food and beer. A bit pricy but the Hefeweizen was great and the spicy chicken burger, fries were delicious. A place which everyone should visit.

  • 3/5 Tim M. 3 years ago on Google
    Good beer selection but the food is not the best.

  • 5/5 C B. 4 years ago on Google
    Best beer selection I have found in the city yet.

  • 4/5 Peter L. 4 years ago on Google
    Another good choice for beer and easier to get s table than at Row 54

  • 3/5 Holly H. 4 years ago on Google
    The food presentation was lovely, but the entree was the size of an appetizer

  • 5/5 JuneBug A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service! I also have one of the best moctails ever. Food was tasty. I enjoyed the corn and crab hushpuppies and the buffalo cauliflower. The dessert was ok. The best part was the bill did not break the bank. More details on Instagram: JuneBugsTastyAdventures

    Was great until our waitress forgot about us for over an hour then we learned she had just clocked out..

  • 5/5 Jennifer P. 1 year ago on Google
    So some staff members were either late or didn’t show up! But Zack stepped in and I’m glad he did! My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and he was a perfect ending to a great weekend! Great service and very funny!

    Went to City Tap on the Saturday before the Boston Marathon - the place was hopping. We were told it was a 45 min wait for a table for two, but got 2 seats at the bar in about 10. They have about 40 taps with a real good selection of macro and craft beers - which includes a good mix of locals. You name your style and they will have something for you. We had a margarita pizza and tuna tartar tacos. The pizza was tasty. The tacos - while small were VERY good. The tuna was fresh, the shells nice and crunchy, and they came with an awesome aioli. Definitely worth a visit.

    I stopped in for a quick lunch. I ate at the bar. I had a really good Italian salad. I also had roughly 4 really excellent local IPAs. Those may possibly have offset the otherwise healthy salad, just a little. Excellent service. No complaints. Not too far to walk from the Convention Center, which is where I happen to be.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth S. 10 months ago on Google
    My friends and I ate here last Saturday night and sat with Kelly, at one of the first booths. She was super busy throughout the night but still spent the time joking with us and providing great service. The manager (Matt I think) was also fantastic. We loved all of our food, but the cookie skillet dessert was incredible. We had a fantastic time.

    Made a 2 pm reservation for the Harry Potter Trivia. I called 3 times while making the reservation to ensure we would still be able to participate in the trivia. I was assured that there will be multiple rounds, and it will go on until 3 pm. After being seated at 2 pm I asked when the next round will be starting, and I was told that trivia ended. I’m not sure what happened but I was really disappointed, especially since I checked with them multiple times. The food was ok.

    Great beer selection and food options. I had the Cuban sandwich with salad which was perfect! Highly recommended this place.

  • 3/5 Rita 5 months ago on Google
    If your looking for a night out for drinks, this is a good choice. Food..not so much. The food is average but staff doesn't even ask how the food is. They certainly care if you like your drink and want to order you another. I understand it's a bar. But I should not get the impression that they only care about getting me drinks. When leaving a gentlemen upfront said have a good night but the two hostesses could care less. I said have a good night, they looked at me, ignored me and continued talking to each other. Not the environment I will return to.

  • 1/5 Yehiel S. 3 years ago on Google
    Went there for the first and last time. Horrible service. Waitress didn’t care about us. We set for 20 min before anyone even approached our table and the restaurant wasn’t even full. When she finally came to take the order, she took our appetizer orders and then left while I was trying to ask for entrees as well. She didn’t say a word before leaving or even asked if we want anything else aside of appetizers, she turned around and left. That was bizarre and super disrespectful. I have never seen any waitress in any restaurant does that. Just when I thought that things can’t be worse, at the end of the meal she confused our check and charged us for a different table and that’s after sitting for 15 min and waiting for her to take the credit card. This only confirms the lack of caring. When your staff don’t give a f***, it shows.

    Bad food and bad service. Asked to be seated near a heat lamp and was denied even though there was two empty tables. Never received the food. Do not recommend.

  • 5/5 shannae d. 3 years ago on Google
    Everything was amazing! Staff was friendly and the restaurant itself was covid compliant.

  • 5/5 Brian S. 3 years ago on Google
    Great brunch. Friendly staff and service. The Big Chick was really good!!

  • 4/5 Amilie W. 3 years ago on Google
    "Great place to go apres work for a large selection of beers and cider."

  • 5/5 Daphne G. 3 years ago on Google
    Me and my mom and brother decided to try this restaurant. But we wanted to sit outside because of COVID, but it was BLAZING out. So we didn't know what to do. But Cat, our waitress and manager gave us a seat inside but right next to the open windows. The interior was really cool, (rustic modern) and the outdoor seating looked nice too. Cat was very sweet and helpful. Me, being a ten year old girl got the kids pasta with butter and marinara. My 12 year old brother got a burger, which he said was unusually good. He said it was well spiced. My mom got a grain salad. Which she said was ok, but liked my side of Caesar salad better. It was just Cat and Christina as the waitresses and they handled the room well even with just two of them. Christina was also a very good waitress. If I were to give any feedback, it would be to make the soggy fries more crisp. Otherwise a great restaurant to go to.

    Great southern style food and also great prices especially for being in this area of town! Also $5 mimosas which is unheard of in Boston!

  • 5/5 Gregory L. 3 years ago on Google
    Incredible wings. Great beer selection. Good TV set up.

  • 3/5 Star L. 3 years ago on Google
    Staff were very nice. Burger was good but I must say I wish the menu did have more options it lacks that and the portion of the macaroni was a lot smaller than expected.

  • 5/5 Susan C. 3 years ago on Google
    Never disappoints! Went there with my husband and two adult children and ordered 4 different apps, a pizza and the brussel sprouts - not one morsel of food was left! everything was hot and DELICIOUS! the wait staff did an amazing job considering there were only two on at the time we were there. Their selection of beer is outstanding and while it is a large space, they somehow pull off a cozy, tavern like feel. Highly recommend!

    Go to spot for a casual dine in experience.

  • 4/5 Elizabeth F. 3 years ago on Google
    City Tap’s food is regularly spectacular. The spice wings are some of my favorite wings I’ve ever had. I’ve stolen the recipe for the Brussel Sprouts because they are that good. The pizza is always tasty and the sliders are truly delicious. I’ve eaten here many times and have always enjoyed the food. If beer isn’t your drink- try the frozè in the summer months. But their cocktails aren’t anything special. Just standard expensive Seaport prices. If you aren’t really a beer drinker their impressive beer list isn’t exciting. It’s called “city tap” but I think the worst thing about this place is the alcohol.

  • 5/5 Mango T. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent restaurant in the seaport. High quality everything and one of the best patios in the city. Go, you won’t regret it.

  • 5/5 Paul P. 3 years ago on Google
    Great vibes for outdoor dinning. Would recommend and so would my puppy 🐶

  • 5/5 Ezekiel B. 3 years ago on Google
    You will not be disappointed in the menu and service. I look forward to going back again. Bring your hunger - portions are filling.

  • 5/5 Jen P. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent food and service. Really appreciated the steps they took to create a safe dining environment during the pandemic.

  • 4/5 Kelly N. 3 years ago on Google
    Overall, this was an excellent place to eat. We were seated immediately in the patio area at 5 PM on a Tuesday. Our waitress was kind and attentive. we ordered the ten spiced wings first, which came out within 10-15 minutes. They were absolutely delicious and highly recommended. We shared a pepperoni pizza which tasted decent. The crust was good. I would come back here to eat!

  • 5/5 Nash G. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place to check out. I ordered the burger and it was amazing, seasoned really well with just enough spice. The design is really well done, too. The server and hostess were both really nice and accommodating. On top of that, during the pandemic not only can you sit outside and they wipe the tables down after each use, but you can also sit inside if it's really hot next to a window, so fresh air is always coming in. Again, a great place to go to for lunch or dinner.

    Great burger, beautiful place

  • 1/5 Amanda M. 3 years ago on Google
    I walked in and loved the vibe. First drink was great. Waited over an hour for our waitress to come back...she never did. After waiting in the 90 degree heat over an hour without even a water or second cocktail offered, a different waitress asked us if we were all set. We said we want another round and waters and she said she’ll find our waitress. 15 minutes later the second waitress told us our waitress clocked out and left! How rude? No one checked on us, was over charged for our drinks, and not offered barely even an apology. Wish I had a better experience as the venue was very nice.

    Alright so I'm picky about pizza, I'm one of those rascals that prefers smooth sauce to chunky/seedy sauce, and this place gave me a margarita pizza that fulfilled this requirement. Plus, the hand-cut fries come with crispy skins left on (yum)! The outdoor seating was well-spaced too, which is a must for these current pandemic times. I'd come again.
