Getting there was a saga, every person you spoke to at MBTA told you a different place to catch the bus. We ended up walking 16 blocks. We finally get to Harvard and we're randomly let off where I've added pics across from the TD bank but there's nothing clearly labeled which buses to take or not. On our way back we had to ask multiple bus drivers which bus ours should be to get back into the center of Boston. Bit of a nightmare, really. Clearer signage is a definite must, esp on days when it's raining, which it was.

There are plenty of businesses along this stretch of road if you are looking for a coffee shop or meal. Elevators from sidewalk to platform on both inbound and outboumd sides of the station, or take the staircase down. Entrances are across the street from each other. Tap to pay at the turnstiles. No facilities available during our visit. Signs on platform let you know how many minutes to the next train. This station is on the red line. (No parking at this station.)

Yep that's definitely happened to me. Thankfully this one isn't located in the depths underground like Porter Square requiring multiple long stair cases/escalators to resurface. Aside from that logistical annoyance, I also have a horror story about how I was trapped on the red line trying to get to Seaport for an event for well over 40 minutes. There were issues with our train and if you know the Inbound line between Kendall/MIT to Charles MGH there is a vertical incline to clear the Longfellow bridge between the stations. (We didn't make it far before trouble happened.) Unfortunately the train struggled to climb and remained stuck waiting for assistance and updates. Disturbingly every 5 minutes or so we could feel gravity sliding the car back a few feet as well. I felt bad for the train operators who announced "we apologize for this inconvenience, we will get this train moving momentarily" every few minutes. The apology while appreciated lost the impact after the first few iterations. I was extremely late for my event, which thankfully I was not presenting or speaking. The worst aspect was we were trapped. No additional cars behind us until they decided to hitch our dead train to another to propel us to the next station where of course we all poured out at Charles MGH in the overcrowded station. Ever since that incident I have been wary of any red line delays.

Yelp Review 2026 #208:…read more We took a train from South Stadium to "Boston" Stadium (Gillette Stadium) for the World Cup and back. The station was buzzing with people rushing to get to work and futbol fans trying to get to the stadium. Police were everywhere. World Cup volunteers and train station staff were very helpful and patient. We paid $85 for roundtrip train tickets from Boston to Foxborough. Normally, it's under $20. We booked the 9am train which is boarding group A. We started lining up to the side of South Station. They had free sunscreen, water, and bug repellent wipes for us. We didn't board until after 9:45am and it was chaotic. Some people were running towards the train instead of staying in an organized line - most of them were foreigners that don't believe in rules, manners and decorum which is beyond the station's control. The train was open seating. There are food stalls, shops, and pharmacy at South Station. The restrooms are not the cleanest as one would expect from a train station at a big city. We've also used this station to get to different parts of Boston before and after the World Cup. The trains were alright.

We didn't really know what to do at the start because there weren't any instructions of how to purchase a ticket. Apparently you can just put your card to the turnstile and it will credit you for a ride and open the gate. Ignore others jumping the gate. It's not right and others we talked to said eventually people get caught jumping the gate or drafting people through.

Right near if not attached to the TD Garden and only a handful of eateries. Makes me wonder if there is even a bathroom on the premises.

I also enjoy the design of the large pipes "linking" the Northbound and Southbound levels. Also worth mentioning that I'm always a fan of stations where you can access both directions (ND&SB) after passing the fare gates. It's never Finding out you just paid for a train going the wrong direction! Where this station struggles is in the need for a little TLC. The platform was generally clean, but the surrounding walls could surely benefit for a long-overdue cleaning. Another point is the escalator. While I would not call it shaky, it did not offer a very smooth ride. Just in case, hold on to the handrail, it's a long way down otherwise.

Lansdowne Station sits at the heart of one of Boston's most dynamic construction zones, surrounded…read moreby towering cranes and the skeletal frameworks of ambitious air rights developments that promise to reshape the Fenway landscape. The station occupies a unique position tucked directly alongside the Mass Pike (I-90), where the constant hum of highway traffic mingles with the rhythmic clatter of approaching trains. Just one block from Gate A of Fenway Park, the station serves as a crucial gateway for baseball fans and commuters alike. The proximity to the ballpark is celebrated through a striking public art installation that honors the numerical legacy of baseball--displaying the retired numbers of Red Sox legends and MLB greats who have been permanently enshrined in the sport's history. The station's architecture reflects both practicality and exposure to the elements. Its semi-sheltered design provides protection from the worst weather while maintaining an open-air feel that keeps passengers connected to the bustling urban environment around them. The two-level structure efficiently manages passenger flow, with stairs and elevators providing access to both inbound and outbound platforms, ensuring accessibility for all travelers. This vertical design allows the station to maximize its footprint in a space constrained by highway infrastructure on one side and the dense urban fabric of the Fenway neighborhood on the other. As construction continues to rise around it, Lansdowne Station stands as both a witness to and facilitator of the area's ongoing transformation. Note: This was formerly known as Yawkey Station. The MBTA renamed this Lansdowne Station due to its proximity to Lansdowne Street in 2019 after community concerns around memorializing members of the Red Sox owning Yawkey family who long-refused to hire African-American baseball players. They were the last holdouts in the MLB. The city of Boston reverted the name of nearby Yawkey Wayto Jersey Street for similar reasons the prior year.

I came for a concert and there were food booths and merch vendors on the street. The area has bars and restaurants to post up and people watch. You can stand in the middle of Yawkey and just take it all in for a few minutes. I sure did and appreciated that I got to experience such a spectacular evening that started on Yawkey. Everyone was in good spirits and courteous. Clearly even if there isn't an event happening at Fenway you can still explore the different bars and have a good time. I'd recommend to not wear any other team swag besides Red Sox or Boston teams in this area just to be safe. Mel M Yelp 17:127
