Welcoming Irish establishment with tasty food! We got the Corrib, BBQ Bacon Blue, and the Best of the House Burgers. They were quite massive for the price and cooked great. Fries were crisped up very well and piping hot too. All the patrons we interacted with were hospitable as well! read more

Very disappointed and equally discouraging they charge $1.00 For EACH takeout Order to offset 2 takeout containers!!!!! Huge turn off, but the kicker is Never once do they put WAX paper in the containers!!!!!! It's disgusting and I loose my appetite to see the greasy oil all over the boxes and spilled into the receipt as pictured, who wants to pay $44 for This and its CONSTANTLY the SAME! I'm traveling from Newton there are FAR more better takeout but their fish quality is top notch Baby scrod. But honestly it's huge turn off. The quality control Must improve if they want to retain longterm customers. So many restaurants struggling as is and it's nonsense presentation read more

I have driven by this place all the time so I finally gave it a try. They have a parking lot but it was full do I still had to find a spot in the municipal lot. The restaurant is predominately a pub with an eating area. I can see where they make their money. The seating area is hidden so just look hard to find it. I did not see it so I had to sits at the bar. I had a cheeseburger and onion rings. More of a pub than a restaurant. The cheeseburger came with lettuce, tomatoes and mushrooms. It was ok for the price of 16.00. The prices were reasonable. The bartender brought over my tab of 16.00. I gave him my credit card where he proceeded to ring up another customers tab of 50.00. I caught it. How could the bartender make such a flagrant mistake? When I brought it to the attention to the bartender voided the transaction. Don't sign your credit card receipt blindly. I would take it or leave it on this restaurant. read more

Fine pub to grab some grub and brew with a long bar and quick enough service. Prefer the Guinness pours and pub layouts down the road, but the more the merrier. read more

Sat at the bar for a quick bite. Friend had a burger and was very happy. I had French Dip. Excellent and a good amount of meat. 2nd visit to this pub. Great stop before a show at the Roadrunner which is less than 5 minutes away. Parking was available. Service was prompt and efficient. Typical Irish bar inside. Clean establishment. read more

Honestly the food was mediocre at best the staff was friendly enough but I'm looking for quality food that service helps but if the food isn't good or quick friendliness isn't always a saving factor and I hate bars that at close literally have someone so drunk they let them drive home when they can't even find the keys in front of their face read more

The wait on drinks was ridiculous I didn't get my drinks until half way through the meal they forgot about me cause the bartender was too busy being Mr friendly food some of it was obviously microwaved read more

Good quality home style cooking. Friendly & attentive staff. A nice assortment of food choices.

Grand spot. Good food and service. Good atmosphere. Lots of us Irish around the place.

I guess import duties arrived beer prices increased, it's now cheaper to by a case than to have a few beers. Done with bars now as there is no value add at all. It's better to save and fly for long weekend to London or Du Lin than to drink in US. Food and atmosphere good but for how long before insolvency. read more

We were in the neighborhood and decided to stop in for lunch. We were hoping to get a Reuben, but no luck, they didn't have corned beef. I ended up having the Irish Breakfast, which was just so-so. Others were similarly unimpressed by their entrees. Our server was efficient, but not especially interested in us. There were a lot of people at the bar for early afternoon, so clearly this is a neighborhood hang-out, and we felt a little like we were intruding. The bar looked pretty nice, but the rest of the place looked like a chain restaurant. Probably would not return. Too bad, would have liked to have a fun Boston Irish pub experience. read more

All you need to know is the food is 10/10 especially for the price! And drinks are strong. Such a cute local vibe with great service!

Excellent food, fast service. Steak tips perfectly cooked medium, excellent flavor. Will be back! read more

Y'all I love Corrib Pub so much. Corrib is me of those restaurants where you don't really crave going there, but the familiarity and warmth of the restaurant will keep you coming back. I pretty much get the same exact thing every time I go here which is the barbecue bacon bleu burger. It's not the prettiest but I love the bleu cheese, the bacon is good, and the burger is solid. For $9, getting a burger is the best deal on the menu. I've also gotten the Irish Bacon burger which is good. My boyfriend has tried various things which I've sampled. Irish Sampler was alright, the Shepard's pie was good, but my favorite is the chicken curry. It has fresh grilled chicken, vegetables, rice, all in a curry sauce. I wasn't expecting it to be this good, but it is my new favorite thing. Refills come fast as the dining Hill is usually not that crowded. Service can be a hit or miss, but we're not regulars. It's clearly a regulars restaurant which I'm fine with, great for people watching. The only thing I don't recommend is the nachos. Not worth the value, and not the best. Also the chicken sandwich was dry when I had it. TL;DR: get a burger and endless Diet Coke refills. read more

We stopped into this neighborhood local restaurant that looked like it was full of regulars at the bar and filling the booths. FOOD Food is very traditional New England/American food with the usual menu items. He ordered the turkey dinner that was a special of the night and I ordered the honey mustard chicken and substituted the rice for french fries. All items were tasty and hot. The prices were fairly priced for what you received. It is not high-end gourmet nouveau gastro pub, it's a traditional old-time Boston restaurant, so you know what to expect when you turn up. ATMOSPHERE Classic booth and a long bar with a casual atmosphere. The server was friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Bonus- we managed to get street parking right in front of the restaurant, sweet! read more

The Corrib Pub is Awesome! The food is delicious with large portions! The atmosphere is perfect and just like a pub in Ireland. The staff are friendly! Go here weekly with my husband and in-laws. The daily specials are on point. The pork chop special (see pic below) was the biggest and best evah. Love the tall Bacardi and Coke, nice and strong! Go here and leave satisfied and happy :~) read more

My family and I went here after we watched the BC vs. Wake Forest football game. It has an awesome looking bar area and really is an authentic Irish pub. Some of the staff we talked to was even originally from Ireland. I had the "Best of House" burger, it was ok for a burger. I also had the french onion soup, and it was one of the best french onion soups I have ever had. The draft Guinness was great, they serve it the Irish way at 42 degrees when requested! read more

This is an average Irish pub in the Boston area - there's a good range of drinks and plenty of space, but the food is mediocre. Our table ordered the clam chowder, bangers and mash, Irish curry, and baked seafood. Of all the items, the baked seafood was the best offering. The rest had a processed/canned vibe to them. The table next to us ordered the burgers, though, and they seemed the way to go. If you're in the mood for a pint, definitely stop by Corrib. If you want to also grab a bite, go for the burgers. The other entrees aren't worth the price. read more

Was in town visiting a friend and we decided to hit up the Corrib Pub for a casual dinner as he hadn't been there before and wanted to give it a shot. I've always been a big fan of taverns and pub style food (also beer) so this seemed like a place I would enjoy. The Corrib did not disappoint. I started out with a cup of their chowder (we were in Boston after all) and it was good, not great. However I realize that most people aren't looking for a good bowl of chowder at an Irish pub while in Boston. I had read a review on Yelp that the Corrib had a great french dip sandwich (again, probably not the typical choice at an Irish pub) but definitely something I would order. I am very glad I did as this turned out to be the best french dip I have ever had. The roast beef was cooked medium and still very tender, while the onion roll was dipped in aus jus perfectly. It was served with some sweet potato fries with a honey mustard dipping sauce. I topped this off with a pint of Sam Adams seasonal and was a happy man. Our server was friendly and attentive, and got bonus points for being authentically Irish (not confirmed :) ) It was a little unclear when we walked in if we had to seat ourselves or wait for a host, so that was a bit disappointing. We ended up asking a bartender to find out to seat ourselves. The atmosphere and price and the addition of on-site parking made this a winner. Cheers to the Corrib Pub. read more

Best value dinner in all of Brighton. My favorite spot for a pint of Guinness and some great conversation. Their daily specials are all good. My go to favorites are the Chicken Fingers, Chicken Curry, Steak Tip Salad and the Corrib Burger. Bartenders and Waitstaff are all solid good folks. If you live or work in Brighton and aren't a regular here already, then I can't understand why not. Go enjoy! read more

I am a simple man with simple lusts. I came to Corrib's after Sunday's Mass to quench my thirst and escape the sickening silence that has haunted my apartment ever since my wife left. What I found was more than I bargained for. Upon the sight of young lady smoking a menthol cigarette distastefully close to the entrance, I felt a distinct sense of nostalgia reminiscent of the scents of my childhood home in Cleveland. Mother loved menthols. The interior of Corrib's strikes a eery resemblance to the imagery Billy Joel creates in his 1973 hit "The Piano Man". The regular crowd had indeed shuffled in by the time I found my seat at the bar. It appeared I had stumbled upon a new spot to make love to a tonic an' gin. What I fancy about Corrib's is the sense of community and cast of characters it welcomes. Corrib's is a place where men like Davey, who is still in the navy (and probably will be for life), can share a beer and Sunday afternoon with Paul, the real estate novelist, who never had time for a wife. For here, we share a drink we call loneliness, because it's better than drinking alone. Now, I am off to Corrib's to forget about life for a while. Forever yours, Barnaby read more

Just had a bowl of chili here and it was old school and very satisfying and the perfect comfort food and filling as all heck. This is my first time here but the cook's skill is readily apparent me being a cook myself. I will be back and I hope I get the same waitress very cute and attentive the perfect host. read more

Corrib Pub & Restaurant - Chili at corrib delicious and quite the value. - New American Near Me - Brighton, Massachusetts

Great old school Irish-American pub spot. Good prices, generous portions w/ friendly staff and regulars. Best fish and chips in the neighborhood. Properly poured pints of Guinness, not that foamy nonsense you get at the yuppie bars. Good parking next door in the City lot or decent street parking if that's full. read more

This place is a great restaurant to go to for a local beer and food kind of place. They have a decent selection of beers and their menu is pretty solid. I've been here a couple times for just drinks and also for drinks and dinner, and I prefer coming here for the food. Their menu offers items from good bar apps to dinner plates. I've tried their Caesar salad with steak tips and their grilled veggie sandwich on ciabatta and both were really good. Both tasted fresh and cooked well. I've seen their burgers and they look really yummy, but have yet to taste it. As for atmosphere it's a typical Irish pub, staff is both friendly and timely. There are locals who come here quite often but they don't distract from the typical ambiance and setting. Overall I recommend trying this place out for a bite and a beer! read more

horrible experience. ruined celebration dinner with a friend. useless waiter. awful tasteless badly cooked food. not one positive thing to say. chicken marsale pre cooked and microwaved. penne pasta soaked and brown. instead of marsala wine and fresh mushrooms cooked in canned mushroom gravy. very expensive steak very overdone and rubbery. could't cut it even with a steak knife. to make the meal even more horrible, strawberry shortcake served on a flat plate, not in a bowl. instead of shortcake the tiny piece of pound cake was microwaved and burned, like a brick hard. a tablespoon of strawberries without sauce and two tiny scoops of ice cream next to the cake. could even cut this cake with a knife. needless to say we won't be back. pitiful excuse for a restaurant. read more

Absolutely the worst I have ever been treated at a pub in Boston in my life. Brian completely ignored me and my husband. He is Greek and I am Irish. Honestly think that has something to do with it. We have been here many times over the years, just never encountered this miserable bartender before. I would never come here again or recommend any of my friends come here ever. There are too many other places nearby to go to. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Hit the corrib after a wake. Was always a favorite place mine when i lived in brighton. Had my girlfriend, my sister and my nephews with me. Had a nice dinner with all before a long ride home. Everyone except any girlfriend has been there and she really loved it read more

Service: went there on a Friday and the male bartender acted like the socialite of Brighton area, he should of been on the other side of the bar, while he was chugging pints behind one. Food: ordered boneless wings fresh and tasty. Bone in wings had freezer burn, entree: ordered chicken tasted like cardboard. Partner had fish, didn't have any taste. Drinks: partner ordered a Guinness, which was perfect poured slightly above room temp. When she got to the bottom of the pint, she found a piece of glass touching her lip. The bartender blamed us because of our hatred for the bone in wings. Then he asked the neighboring patrons if they did it. So fail on the drinks as I watched them use a glass to scoop their ice thereafter. Ambience : none, reminds me of a 99 restaurant, but worse. 1/5 for the Guinness, otherwise the place is Shit and the food sucked. read more

We went there after the BC lost today, now 2 losses for the day. We had an older waitress who was on the ruder side, really didn't come much and even forgot my salad. Won't be going back. Food is "pub" food and ok for that reason, don't expect much and you won't get much. read more

If I could, I would rate them with no stars. Visited the Corrib Pub on September 22, 2019, with co-workers thinking I would get good food and good service. Within the first 30 seconds of sitting at the table, the waiter gave me an attitude just because I was ready to order food. Then completely ignored me, after ordering lemonade I realize little brown things floating in the lemonade, and the outside of the glass was still dirty. I ended up leaving and went to Los Amigos. First time I was treated like I didn't belong in a place, guess we're still in the 1920s. ‍ read more

Delightful atmosphere. Terrific food. Made us feel like we were long time patrons on our first visit. Highly reccomended!

The Corrib has sort of a geriatric-working-class Brighton meets just-off-the-boat Irish hooligan vibe to it. When I was there for lunch this afternoon, the table in front of me was occupied by a group of skinhead-types in football jerseys screaming in a barely comprehensible dialect of rapid-fire English combined with some pagan language I wasn't familiar with. I heard a lot of "fook"s but I didn't understand much else. At the table beside me sat two octogenarian couples angrily complaining in thick Boston accents about . . . well, everything. When I listened more closely, however, I realized that they weren't angry at all. Apparently this is the way people who've been married since the Curley administration communicate with one another. My turkey vegetable soup was excellent. The baked salmon, however, was just so-so and the rice was undercooked. I guess that averages out to an OK meal. I didn't want any of the heavy desserts on the menu but the waitress said "no problem" when I asked if I could order a dish of ice cream, which was not on the menu. She even sprayed on some whipped cream and put a cherry on top. The bar and dining room were dark and the windows, which seemed above shoulder height, gave the place a cavernous feel. The paper place mats contained ads for a number of local establishments, including the McNamara Funeral Home. Given the patrons, I'm sure the ad has the potential to be quite lucrative for the Messrs. McNamara. Overall, I'd say the Corrib is a diner masquerading as a bar but I'd try it again, if only to see if I could squeeze another star out of it. read more

Corrine Pub and Restaurant is exactly what it says it is: a pub and restaurant. With a large beer selection, full bar and lunch and dinner specials, it's the type of place you'll call your usual stop and/or watering hole. Also open late, Corrib provides a solid Brighton drinking scene for those liking to watch a Red Sox game or not in the mood to overpay for craft beer. Even then, it's still a place to have a good meal, whether on a date or out with the family. read more

On a Saturday afternoon I visited Corrib Pub looking to fill my tummy between a double shift in Cambridge, what I got was a reason to return! I'll keep it brief... Service was polite, timely, and didn't bother me with suggestions, that is, I didn't feel pressured into getting drinks etc... The food was wonderful and more than I could finish, (bonus meal for the conservative type that actually eats leftovers as a meal). I'll definitely return, perhaps with a res. on a hot night (Fri, Sat) and we can re-rate, but I'm sure it's a 5 either way, they care about what they're serving, and how they serve it, so I recommend Corrib. read more

I went to the Corrib yesterday. As always, the staff was friendly, well informed and willing to assist in any way they could. The menu is extensive; full of wide ranging options. I had Shepard's pie which was perfectly prepared and delicious. The decor of the pub is traditional; all dark wood and brass. It's a charming, welcoming place to eat. One last thing; I appreciate a place that allows one the time to enjoy a leisurely meal without any sign of wanting the customer to hurry up. read more

I came here one weeknight for some dinner with the man-friend. If you walk in past the bar there is a little dining room in the back. It's old school, reminded me of somewhere my Nana would love to go, and there's nothing wrong with that! We liked the vibe, very relaxed. I wouldn't say its a "date-night" type of place, but more of a lets get out of the house I don't feel like cooking type place....and who doesn't love that? ( I wore a sweatshirt and leggings -woo!) The bar looks quiet for a beer and they had some t.v.'s. The waitress was really sweet, helped me pick a sandwich. I got the corned beef ruben and he got a chicken wrap. Both were really good. My corned beef was awesome, really soft and fresh! He also got clam chowder, it was yummy! My only complaint was the fries weren't good, you could taste the grease from the fryer on them....or they tasted freezer burned...some type of taste that was not good. Other than that though it was good and I'm sure we will be back! read more

The Corrib is one of my favorite places in the city to go for a chill meal. My boyfriend used to live just down the street, so we were regulars for a while. The waitresses we had were all really friendly. One in particular would recognize my man and his roommate (who were frequenting the Corrib long before I was in the picture) and stop by our table for a chat when it wasn't too busy. I only ever had one menu item that was sub-par, and that was the veggie burger. I'm a big fan of the Gardenburger-type variety, and Corrib's was some sort of a fried shell encasing corn and peas, etc. It wasn't horrible... it was really just a personal taste kind of thing. All the pasta dishes I tried were really good (pesto penne erred a bit on the bland side, but was still good), the grilled cheese is classically delicious, and the clam chowder is probably the best I've ever had. Really creamy and loaded with clams. My favorite part of the Corrib experience is their dessert coffees. The Nutty Irishman (Bailey's and Frangelico, if I remember correctly) and Keoke (Kahlua, creme de cacao, and brandy) are my personal favorites. I've tried dessert coffees at several other places around the city, and the Corrib ties with Jacob Wirth's as my favorite. This winter I'll definitely miss the brisk walks down the street to get warmed up with a bowl of chowder and mug of coffee with a kick. read more

The waitress that sat us is different than the waitress that stared at us awkwardly trying to mind read that we already got our drink order taken. The food was pretty bland, the burger was cooked properly but there was no sauce, the fish was so overcooked it flaked, onion rings were cold. Despite the waitress standing behind us the whole time chatting to her friends it took forever for a drink refill. The restaurant clearly has an identity crisis as well, it's mostly American pub food in an Irish themed place. There was no Shepards pie and lobster ravioli, ribs and fish and chips were all on the same page. read more
