    Such a nostalgic bar! Was in my hometown of Boston for one night, and although the Sox were out of town, still wanted to head to Fenway. This area has exploded since I lived here! The Bleacher Bar is exactly as it sounds- it's a bar carved out from underneath the Fenway Stadium bleachers with a view of the field. Vibe was an all ages crowd with locals and tourists. Plenty of beer and liquor choices and food too. Found it easy to get drinks on a Sat night and prices were average for the area (reasonable given the nostalgia). Dj played fun tunes too!

    Sliders

    Let's start. Service was great being a Saturday night during a game. Beer was cold and the sliders were almost the size of cheeseburgers. Now that's what I call a freaking good slider. Dj is loud and the people are having a great time. We weren't inside for long as Came in for a quick bite and food towards the end of the red Sox game we had just attended. If you never been, you just have to go, simple as that.

    We were visiting Fenway park during off season and we stopped by the bleacher bar because it's a great way to see the inside of the park without booking a tour. I ordered the Chicken Bites and I enjoyed it so much I had to write a review! It was a large heaping portion of piping hot chicken in a crunchy and well seasoned batter, definitely a step above your standard bar fare. Service is great and the atmosphere inside is fun (and they also sell Jell-O shots). There's a few tables with prime views of Fenway if you're lucky enough to snag one

    Great place to stop in after my spartan race but would be even better during or after a Sox game or concert. The place was small and dark full of memorabilia which I am sure any baseball fan would appreciate. The service was quick for both drinks from the bar as well as our food. Hot dog was good, bun could have been better, the bottom split for me and my sisters as soon as we picked it up but still manageable to eat. The fries were GREAT they were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The location was great as well, it had a large garage door that opened straight to the field for a unique viewing experience. I would definitely come back here for the food and view!

    A very cool/unique spot in Boston. Baseball fans will appreciate the field-level view of Fenway park! My husband and I came here to grab drinks & food before a Red Sox game. It was packed as expected and we waited about 30 mins for a table. We were able to grab drinks at the bar and look out onto the field while we waited. I ordered the popcorn chicken with buffalo sauce & ranch. It was great!! Perfect portion size with juicy pieces of fried chicken. My husband ordered the fried chicken sandwich and also enjoyed it. Definitely check this place out if you're a baseball fan who doesn't mind a crowd ;)

    This is an Experience that you must do if you are going to a game at Fenway! The is a Hidden Gem! Go during batting practice, because during the game the experience is gone. So why, there is a Garage Door they open up that is at the field level view into Fenway from center field!! Check out the pictures! Players walk right to you! The place does have a great vibe!

    It's our first time in Boston, of course off-season, we came to see Boston and go to Salem for Halloween. We want to see Fenway Park without having to go on a tour. The bleacher bar is a fantastic bar. Great idea. You can see the whole outfield from inside the bar, which was perfect for us. The drinks were good, we didn't try the food, they were filming something inside the bar ,I don't know for something? So there was a sign saying the bar was closed at the moment at the main entrance, but we're able to go to the other entrance with everybody else entering. There's a jukebox. And I'm guessing you have to make reservations to sit at the tables right by the outfield, but luckily we were able to go and just walk up and look at the outfield and nobody being at the tables at the moment because of filming. Inside of the bar, the decor is pretty cool and all those Red Sox memorabilia. The bartender was pretty chill.

    The view from the bleacher bar into Fenway ballpark!

    The atmosphere is so fun! We sat next to the fence. You can see the pregame going on before the game starts! I had the clam chowder and a side salad, my boyfriend has the Buffalo sliders Both were very good! We each had a local beer in draft and our waitress was attentive, nice, .

    Bleacher burger and fries
    Tara K.

    On our trip to Boston, we walked around Fenway (we missed the team being in town by 1 day :( ). As we walked past this place, which is open even when there are no games, the smell of charbroiled burgers pulled us in. The coolest part of this place is that there is a fenced area open to the bar with a full view of the field!! We sat at ledge with stools that looked out onto the field. It was so cool. Apparently, you can sit there during a game. I asked, they say there is a 1 hour limit as long as you order food or drink during the game. They also said that during the game it isn't as busy as you would think. Before the game it will be slammed, but during the game, not so much. Anyway, the taste of the burger matched the scent from outside. It was really good and cooked perfectly. So juicy! We ordered a Bleacher burger which came with fries for $18. Loved the place, the food was great, our server was forgetful and not attentive. Another server that was seating people was very helpful when I asked about how seating near the field worked.

    My friends and I were visiting Boston and wanted to see Fenway Park. It wasn't a game day, so we stopped into this famous bar tucked under the outfield bleachers with views into the famous stadium. The bar was filled with Boston baseball memorabilia and had that been-there-for-decades nostalgic feel. There was a Fiddlehead beer promotion event going on at the time. So, we tried the local beer and got some nice Fiddlehead swag as Boston souvenirs. The bar hostess was friendly and have us a few recommendations of other places in the area we might enjoy later that evening. It was a very hot and humid, late summer afternoon. With the bar having a large open viewing of the open air Fenway Park outfield made it a bit muggy inside the busy bar. We left and walked around the ballpark exterior. You can tell the ballpark area is in transition with the bar lined street updated and the opposite street a bit run down. We came back to our rental car to find a $60 parking ticket on the car as well as every other car parked on that street. Just a heads up, the meters stop at 6pm, but that's when the neighborhood parking permit required parking begins. The meters don't mention this nor is there signage on the wall near the meters. This information is posted about 10 feet up on a light post facing the street.

    10/10, amazing time. Great bar service, great view, loved it! We did not get any food, only drinks, but the vibe was fantastic.

    Never seen any place like this. If you are in Boston you HAVE to go here. Even though it was off season, the cool factor was still there. Food was great!

    See all

    Open all year?

    Yes

    Are open for dine-in?

    Yes!

    Are you open for dine in?

    Hi there! Yes we are :)

    Is this still a Buffalo Bills Backer Bar on Sundays? We need a place to watch the game while visiting!! Thanks! ❤️💙🏈

    The Bleacher Bar is still the official spot for Bills Backers of Fenway. It's one of two Bills Backers bars in Boston.

    Are children allowed inside? We wont unfortunately be there on a game day but would like them to see inside Fenway Park! If so, has anyone seen high chairs there?! Thanks

    We saw kids when we were there during an afternoon there wasn't a game. I am sure they have high chairs in the back but you can always call and ask. Pleanty of tables and high tops so you will have room to sit, especially on non-game day.

    Is this place tight?

    Tight as in space? Yes, on game days. Tight as in cool? Definitely, yes!! Cool view of the ballpark!!

I mentioned to the manager how overpriced the teacup size thing of clam chowder I got was and how flavorless it was it was literally like Campbell's soup poured out of a can and it was probably a quarter of a cans worth and it was like $11 and she just shrugged and said some rude comment meanwhile she seemed like she was deaf because she could barely hear what I was saying as well and I wouldn't be surprised if many of the regulars there have also lost their hearing from the extremely loud music.

It's like someone mashed together an amusement park, a zoo, and a full-blown circus, then replaced the cotton candy with alcohol and the safety rails with chaos. Every floor felt like a different dimension--one minute you're vibing, the next you're dodging a human traffic jam like it's bumper cars. But the real main event? Colleen. First floor. Absolute legend. Watching her work was like witnessing a headliner performance before the headliner. She wasn't bartending--she was conducting a symphony of pure mayhem. Drinks flying out of her hands like fireworks, orders remembered with supernatural precision, cracking jokes, keeping the energy electric--it was like if a ringmaster, a magician, and a quarterback all fused into one person behind the bar. I showed up stone-cold sober. Like, "responsible adult grabbing a pre-show drink" sober. What happened next was less of a night out and more of a controlled demolition. Somewhere between Colleen's perfectly poured chaos and the multi-floor madness, time stopped making sense. I'm pretty sure I blacked out on one floor and woke up on another like I was fast-traveling in a video game. At one point I may have been part of the circus. Not watching it--part of it. By the time I left, "walking" was no longer an option. I exited the building in a full crawl, like I had just survived a natural disaster. Limbs questionable, dignity gone, spirit intact. 10/10.

I'm glad they had this Celtics collab. The event was fun, they had free merch at a table handed out by Celtics cheerleaders and Lucky the Leprechaun. We got there towards the end but scored some merch. We did wait for a table since it was a full house for this, but luckily we scored one with a TV in view. My friends and I got dinner, opted out of drinks this round. I got the chicken quesadilla with a side of spanish rice. The quesadilla was pretty good, but the rice was a little undercooked. They also charged extra for a side of sauce which has never happened before so that was a bummer. I wouldn't have got one if I'd known. Oh well. We then split the cookie sundae which was yummy. Cookie was undercooked and a little raw but it was okay. Still tasted okay, food is always good but nothing to write home about. I like it though. The atmosphere and the shared energy of Boston sports fans being able to come together and enjoy a game makes up for the food being above average. I'll still come back and enjoy a game here.
