    Chili
    Tal O.

    Had a great lunch experience here! Stopped for a casual lunch and it was exactly what we were looking for. The salads were amazing, french fries were hot and cooked perfectly, and the chili came with so many chips which was a fun surprise we didn't expect. Service was fast and friendly. It's a no frills type of spot. The music & TVs are loud but it's what you expect from a dive bar/tavern spot. We could have a conversation just fine, but wanted to throw it out there cause some people don't love it. I'd absolutely come back next time I'm in Quincy.

    I can't believe that Hancock Tavern was not on Yelp's list! This definitely is a hidden gem obviously. The atmosphere is a pub feel. Everyone knew each other and were very nice & helpful. The food...oh the food...delicious!! TV's everywhere! Separate bathrooms for men & woman. Very clean. Mostly older people. But from what I've learned...grey hair equals great prices & food. I had delicious onion rings & a pub style Hamburger & mushroom pizza. Excellent! Hancock Tavern...I posted the wrong name.

    Green tea martini
    Rudy M.

    I came here after lunch hour. There's no server, only 1 bartender who was serving 10+ people. Food also took 20 minutes to be served. The bar area was spacious and there's many big screen TVs. I ordered black and blue burger with green tea martini. Burger was cooked medium well done and a bit chewy. The cocktail is far below my expectation. The place is not too loud and definitely not intimate.

    Buffalo tenders

    $5 beers on draft. HUGE PORTIONS. Got the buffalo tenders which were bomb & burger with onion rings. Recommend. Casual vibes.

    The old "idle hour"…read more First time ordering pizza from here and it was okay. I think I would prefer to go in next time and grab a bar seat or table and eat in house. We also ordered their Caesar Salad which was good. I do remember this spot before it was Drifters and it was called Idle Hour which I loved so much. But I will say I am excited that a new pizza spot is now in its place. I think my next time that I try this will be physically at the restaurant. My only concern is that it is very loud. It is a great place to go watch sports for sure!

    Grabbed drinks here with a friend on a Saturday night and wow was it busy!…read more There was live music when we first walked in so the ambiance was quite loud... like I could barely hear myself let alone hold a conversation. The place itself was small too so the music really overpowered everything. But once the live music wrapped up the vibes were good! Not too loud that I was screaming over it, but still lively. I got the Heart of Stone which was delicious! Not too sour or sweet, but was definitely a strong cocktail. I had 3/4 of it and I was already feeling it. My friend got an Old Fashioned and she was a big fan! It went down quite smoothly and tasted good too. For $14 a drink, it was a little pricy but honestly I've seen places in Boston charge more. I would recommend coming here to grab drinks but maybe not a spot to catch up because of how loud it was. Would love to try their food as it looked pretty good!

We were advised light snacks so figured we should probably get a base before heading that way. We walked in to the coolest Irish pub that opened up in the back. It was way bigger than I expected. We quickly ordered drinks and I ordered a Moscow mule (my go to). It was in a copper mug and absolutely delicious. My husband ordered a beer, which he enjoyed too. We ordered some oysters and corn ribs for an appetizer. I had never had corn ribs before and was pleasantly surprised. My husband and I split the fish and chips and I'm really glad we did. The fish was extremely large and almost filled the plate. It was crispy and delicious. It was definitely well made. The sauce on the side was even better, too. Highly recommend this place for a quick bite and a pint.

Super relaxed atmosphere and tv's, so it would be a great place to watch a game. Friendly bartender and the fish and chips was good. They also have pizzas that looked great. My friend had a pesto with burrata and she said it was awesome. They also have gluten-free pizza, whihc is good to know. Our table neighbor had the pork chop, which also looked great. They have a small parking lot, which would fill up quickly. We went on a very "off" time, so we were able to park in that lot. Otherwise, you'd need to find street parking.

    Cheryl and I met our daughter and daughter-in-law at Brick & Beam in Quincy to celebrate Jamie's…read more31st birthday, and we had a really nice evening together. Even more exciting, Jamie is due in December with our third grandchild, another little girl, so we had plenty to celebrate. We started with Bang Bang Cauliflower, Crispy Brussels Sprouts, and Shrimp Cocktail, and every appetizer was a great choice. The girls ordered an Aperol Spritz, an Espresso Martini, and a soda water with lime while I kept it simple with a Bud Light. For dinner, Jamie and I both ordered the steak tips with mashed potatoes and spinach. The steak tips were cooked perfectly, and the Parmesan mashed potatoes were especially good. Regen enjoyed the avocado salad with chicken, while Cheryl had filled up on appetizers and happily shared some bites from my plate. The food easily earns 5 stars. Everything we ordered was delicious. I'd give the atmosphere 4 stars. It was comfortable, lively, and a great place to spend a couple of hours catching up. The only thing keeping this from being a 5-star overall experience was the service. I'd give that 3 stars. Perhaps our waitress was new or simply having an off night, but she was very inattentive. Several times she walked past our table without checking in while we were waiting to order more drinks, place our appetizer order, and later our dinner order. I would even call out to her and she just walked by. The good news is that it didn't put a damper on the evening. We were having such a great time talking, laughing, and celebrating that the slow lack of service was easy enough to overlook. Overall, I'd give Brick & Beam 4 stars. Great food, a nice atmosphere, and despite the service hiccups, we had a wonderful night celebrating Jamie's birthday. To top it all off, we took a short walk down the street afterward and finished the evening with ice creams from Dairy Freeze. It was the perfect ending to a great family night!

We had a reservation and were seated right away on a nice large table for the five of us. Nice brick interior, a bit dark for my taste but I am old and couldn't see the menu too well, needed a cell light but super friendly server which always is a plus. Chose the Philly Cheese Steak and got the arugula salad which was fairly large for a side. Sandwich was also good-sized and I only could eat half but the other half made for a nice lunch the next day. Others were happy with their meals, I honestly forget what everyone ordered. The draft beers and other drinks came quickly and waitress was good about keeping our glasses full. Very responsive. Was sort of loud place is my only complaint. Plenty of parking behind the restaurant or on-street.
