A Boston classic! Great food, and a perfect spot to grab a Guiness as well as a bunch of other decent beers .

Foley’s also serves as a great night cap. There’s a jukebox , the ubiquitous Big Buck Hunter , and free darts . And they take their darts very seriously – Foley’s is home to the Boston Area Darts Associa Read more

There are no seats at the bar . You stand, put your foot up on the railing,and chill . That's how it goes at Foley's. Get your whiskey and knock it backfast.

Their truffle Parmesan fries are PHENOMENAL. Every. Single. One. was crispy (i.e., there wasn't a single disappointing, soggy one) and the rosemary was the perfect added touch.

Drink on the right side for a real old school session (no stools at the bar ).Get grub on the left side (fish&chips, mac&cheese, the curry sauce , and smoked salmon plate are standouts).
