Corrib Pub

An Irish gem in the heart of Boston ☘️ As an Irish couple visiting, The Corrib was high on our list while we were in Boston, and it fully lived up to expectations. From the moment we arrived, the welcome was warm from the bartender John, who owns and runs the pub, whom is a true gentleman with strong roots in the west of Ireland. The food and drinks were excellent, the atmosphere was great and there was a real sense of community. One of the highlights of our trip and a must visit if in the area.

The food was pretty good. I had a veggie burger with fries. It is a beautiful place inside, but some tables hadn't been cleared and others, which had no dishes on, were dirty with crumbs. The floor needed swept, as it, too, had lots of crumbs. The waitress wiped down a table for us, but, unknown to us, she had wiped the benches and we sat down on wet seats. She was prompt with taking our order and bringing drinks, but didn't check on us throughout the meal.

I stopped here for lunch and tried the vegan burger option - given my dairy allergy it was the safest option. Sat at the bar, and the bartender was very nice and helpful about my food allergy. The veggie burger patty wasn't my favorite - almost had a Mexican flare to the seasoning - but the roasted veggies on top, aioli, and french fries were stellar.

I recently visited this restaurant and had a very disappointing experience. The food was poorly prepared and tasted stale, and the overall cleanliness of the place was extremely concerning. During my visit I noticed signs of pests inside the dining area, which made the environment feel very unsanitary. Because of this, I did not feel comfortable eating there and would not return. I hope the owners take steps to address the food quality and hygiene issues as soon as possible.

We popped into this pub for a night cap and had a wonderful time. Would definitely return. They had an entire dining area we did not venture into. It was pretty full so I imagine food is good. I'll find out next time.
