Emmets

Best meal we’ve had in Boston. Had an Emmet’s brew, fish and chips, cup of onion soup and clam chowder, Irish coffee, and a berry crumble to finish. Everything was amazing. If I had to give a criticism, I’d say the fish was extremely fried. Lots of crispy crust. But some people might like that. The berry crumble was INCREDIBLE. We keep trying other restaurants on our trip but my wife just complains after and says we should have just gone back to Emmet’s. Even the waitresses were Irish! What an experience.

Had a great time at Emmets before a Celtics game. We got chowder & Guinness beef stew along with w Caesar salad and a burrata salad. We loved the food. We were not huge fans of the Emmets Ale, but it was cool to give it a try.

Really good Irish comfort food! Not too many tables inside, but quite comfortable. The staff were nice and quick, and the food and drinks were great.

Had an amazing night at Emmets. Loved the live music. The bartender, Aaron, was fantastic and made the best Irish Coffee I’ve ever had. Will be back over and over again.

OK, so my experience here is uniquely unique. My wife and I are in Boston, from NC, for specialized medical care for her. After happening upon Emmets on our third day here and being made to feel very welcome, I have returned time and time again over my now, long stay in Boston. We began our stay in the Beacon Hill area where Emmets is located and I have now relocated to Brookline. Still Emmets is my home pub. My wife has been hospitalized for over three weeks, with many more to go. I have found Emmets to be my “safe haven.” I have brought my adult kids and other family members who have travelled to Boston to visit my wife to Emmets. Never have I entered Emmets without being welcomed by name, and an inquiry as to how my wife is doing. That is true Irish hospitality, the kind I have only ever experienced in Dublin. That all said, the food and drink are exceptional and the service has always been great. Special kudos to bartenders Maire, David, and Aaron. I will continue to be a “local” at Emmets through the duration of my stay
