Best chicken tacos ever - to quote my comrade. The pizza was also quite good. Drink selection was an interesting challenge as they had no Irish whiskey… in Boston. Weird. 4 levels of restaurant/bars. Nice place to hang before a hockey game!

Austin is hands down the most epic server ever! From the moment we sat down, he had the best energy — friendly, funny, and so on top of everything. He made the whole night feel effortless and genuinely fun. You can tell he actually enjoys what he does, and it completely rubs off on everyone around him. Our drinks never went empty, our food came out perfectly, and he made us laugh the entire time. Someone give this guy extra lives because he absolutely leveled up our night!

First time at The Greatest Bar for a Patriots game and it was wild. The bar was packed and loud all game. The huge screens were great and when the Pats won fog or smoke started going off and everyone went nuts. Such a fun spot for game day.

The Greatest Bar truly lives up to its name—especially during the holidays! The third and fourth floors transform into a stunning Winter Wonderland, complete with festive décor, twinkling lights, and the perfect holiday atmosphere. It’s such a fun and unique spot to visit this time of year. The energy throughout the entire venue is lively and welcoming, and the staff keeps everything running smoothly. The holiday-themed cocktails are absolutely delicious and add to the overall experience. Whether you're stopping in with friends or looking for a festive night out, The Greatest Bar is a must-visit during the holiday season! And for a matter of fact I would say visit anytime you want to have a great time!

I never leave reviews but I came into the bar last night and it was incredible! The bar is decorated for Christmas and with Christmas music playing it just set an amazing tone for the holidays. The bartenders on the bottom floor were very attentive. Navayah was incredible, had great conversation, amazing drinks, and her smile never left her face. I will be back again!! Highly recommend!!!

Went to the Survivor watch party and had dinner at the bar while there. To start, we have never been The Greatest Bar, so I’m just rating this on the Survivor portion of the place. The menu was pretty cool and themed very well for the event. Wife got the tacos and I got the burger. The bartenders were amazing and went above and beyond for me. The survivor decor was on point. The games were a cool touch, as was the wall of Survivor winners. This is a must for all Survivor fans! Sorry, I forgot to get photos of the games.
