Stats is the type of place that unless you're hammered drunk, a dude, like sports, or some combination of the latter, you probably will not enjoy your time here. If I am drunk enough I can tolerate it, but otherwise it's a place where a woman's spirit goes to die. The table servers do a decent job given how crowded and chaotic it can get, but trying to order a drink at the bar has taken me 20-30 min on average. It's painful. I have considered stilts. The loophole for having an optimal experience as a non-sports fan is to order the food for pickup or delivery. I would have guessed the food would be similar to chain restaurants like Applebee's, but I have tried almost the entire menu and it SLAPS. My favorite is the quesadilla, any burger, wings, and of course Mac and cheese. read more

Our group of 4 has a great time watching football on a Sunday afternoon. The place was busy, but our server was on top of her game! Go Cassidy! The food was good! The Brussels sprouts were amazing with just the right amount of heat! My fav part was the music! They played great songs the whole time we were there! I would love access to that playlist. I would defiantly go back! Cheers! read more

I'm a Californian killing time in South Boston before heading to the airport. I'm about 30 years older than almost everyone in this place. For some reason all the food options in this neighborhood seem to be sports bars. It's a lively scene! So, I had a beer while I waited for my to go order. Now I have a little buzz and I am enjoying a surprisingly delicious bowl of turkey chili and a really fresh salad in my crappy, rented room. I would totally stop in here for drinks with friends and some food if I'm the neighborhood. If you're young and cute, you might even meet someone! read more

A must try for sport games! Great beer, fantastic food, and the vibes at this place are through the roof. Specifically for college football on Saturdays I had one of the best days here. Our server was super friendly as well. Definitely stop by! read more

Cozy place, super friendly staff! We walked in without a reservation for a large group and they still sat us. On Tuesdays they have a trivia night, was pretty fun and - importantly - calm. Hot wings and burgers were good, definitely give them a try. On that note check out the garlic bbq wings (i think that was the name). read more

We had a blast here! We came on a Sunday and it was PACKED. There was a DJ and it was super busy. Like everyone under 35 came out for Sunday Funday. The drinks were great but the food was mediocre. I would have rated this place 5 stars, but we had drinks added to our tab that we didn't order. Overall this was an awesome awesome bar and made for a drunken, fun Sunday. read more

Stats Bar & Grille - Chicken Nachos (too much cheese, and kind of crusty) - Sports Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I ordered a House salad (No onions and crotons) and the Turkey tips entree: Turkey tips (Sweet potato marinade, sweet potato mash and grilled squash) Booth were big size plates. The salad come out first. I got it with the Balsamic glaze, however, it was salty. I'm thinking it was drenched in salad dressing that over salted it. Not a heavy handed salt type of man. The waitress was gracious enough to get another salad going with the dressing in the side. Next the Turkey tips. Damn that s**** smacks!! The sweet potatoes was just right. The squash was cooked perfectly. The tips were cooked to perfection. Beautiful dish. Food: Awesome Service: Also Awesome. Waitress attentive and wonderful rib checking on tables. Marissa was great! Next trip might have to make it 5 stars if this continues!!!!!! read more

We were looking for a bar in Boston that played SEC games because we wanted to watch the Arkansas game (go hogs!!). We were told Stats had most channels and we could ask the waitress to put the game on at any tv near us. The bar was lively and full of people watching all sorts of games. The waitress quickly got the Razorback game on for us once it started. We had beer throughout the game and got the buffalo chicken dip as an app, which was very yummy and cheesy. One thing I though was weird, they don't put prices by any of the beers and all of the beers are different prices. I felt weird asking the waitress every time I ordered a new beer, so my bill ended up being a bit of a surprise. Overall we really liked this sports bar and the food, we just thought the absence of beer prices was weird. read more

Stats Bar & Grille - Buffalo Chicken Dip - Sports Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Great food. The only place where I could find good turkey burgers, and sweet potato fries. The California burger is great, The Pistachio crusted salmon is really good too! I haven't tried everything but I will.. Nice sports bar in the heart of South Boston! read more

Love this place in Southie. Food is great and so is the service. Best place to go out on a Sunday.

The New Smash Burger was great I give it a 10/10. Good customer one of the best burger spots in Southie for sure. read more

Stats Bar & Grille - Smash Burger and Turkey Burger - Sports Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Best nachos I've ever had. There was cheese and toppings in the middle so you don't have to worry about running out if toppings. I ate it for 3 meals. We sat outside when it was still a bit cold and the staff were great about turning the heaters on and wiping the tables. read more

Where do I begin! Is this the best sports bar in Boston? In Massachusetts? In the world? Mike and team do an exceptional job. There are more TVs than you can count! Cheesesteak spring rolls are phenomenal, although I've only had them once because I always order salads. If you need a place to watch the game, this is the place to go. I love Stats! Also the bouncers are handsome (especially D) read more

Stats Bar & Grille - a large group of people eating - Sports Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Trivia Tuesdays are a blast! Make a reservation in advance since the bar will be packed. Bar can be a be a bit loud so probably not an ideal date spot. They have an outside area in the warmer months as well. Food is average but they have an abundant drink menu and the service is very attentive. read more

The waitstaff is great, but the bouncers really make this bar. DJ is the sweetest and friendliest bouncer in Southie. Always a smile on his face, and a hello for patrons. Definitely visit this bar if you are in Boston for a trip or to stay!! You won't be disappointed. read more

Rudest bartenders I've ever seen in my life. Such an uncomfortable experience from start to finish.

Don't sleep on Stars for takeout or delivery. Their sandwiches and wraps are so good, portions are huge and they always read the comments for modifications. My new favorite. read more

One of the worst, most racist places I've been in Boston. DO NOT GO. I ordered a drink and then the waitress was mad because I had used one of the napkins to blow my nose in to. Then she tried to say something to me from the bar and when I responded that she was being racist she had the "manager" kick me out. I tried to speak to the bouncers who were people of color so they said that they "couldn't do anything" Bottom line: don't go if you're a person of color because you could be kicked out for no reason read more

I had an overnight layover in Boston and found this gem of a bar/pub. Katie was efficient, friendly and helpful in choosing a great an entree and sides, plenty of TVs to watch all kinds of sports. the fries were delicious and the Chicken Caesar wrap was really good. Great place- wish I had it in my neighborhood. read more

Of better known local landmarks, there are innumerable. But in my experience, nothing so aptly sums up the modern Boston experience than Stats Bar and Grille. Each time I arrive at Logan airport, I faithfully check in on my college compadres and confirm I should set my Lyft/Uber coordinates due southwest to meet them at Stats. There, I never cease to find exactly what the name suggests: tall, intoxicated bros, bud light slick floors, Tom Brady worshippers and Good Will Hunting accents complete with how-do-you-like-them-apples-esque exchanges. The circular bar keeps things interesting, the staff are friendly, and it only takes 7 minutes of shoulder edging and uncompromised attempted bartender eye contact to order from their decent draft list. Though I've never experienced it, they also maintain a bar food menu and a brunch option. So check out Stats, where you can grab a bud with your buds and debate the greater questions in life: why does the word grill sometimes have an extra "e" and is that chick at the bar checking you guys out? read more

Stats Bar & Grille - Friend: Yo!! You: what's up Friend: Stats You: is there a line Friend: beers! You: be there in 5 - Sports Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Came here for dinner with friends and was again very pleased with the service and food that we received! My only complaint is regarding the spinach artichoke dip. It comes with "pita chips" that are not very typical when you think pita chips. I'm not even sure how to describe them but I was not a fan of them. Still giving them a 5/5 because the service is fantastic and the portions are huge. Easily shareable with a few friends. read more

Went here for dinner and drinks on Friday night. I was underwhelmed. I had the BBQ Bacon Burger with sweet potato fries and a banana bread beer that I had never had before. Side-note pro-tip: the draught beers are *much* cheaper than the bottled beers. My 12 oz. drink was twice as expensive as my friend's pint of Goose Island IPA. The beer selection is not very exhaustive, so I think the draw of this place is the "sportsiness" of it. It certainly wasn't the food: my burger was mushy and falling apart and the sweet potato fries were so salty I thought I might not finish my meal (I finished my meal, you Curious Georges!). Overall, I enjoyed the atmosphere. I will pass on the food next time, opting instead to enjoy a basketball game, sporting a backwards baseball cap and boisterously yelling at the myriad TV screens. read more

Connor and Jennifer were absolutely fantastic!! One of the the most attentive bar tenders I've ever had, was also great with taking my request for wanting a fruity tequila drink and making something magical happen. The steak egg rolls are also a high request, but bogged regards to Jen & Connor!! read more

Stats Bar & Grille - a glass of orange juice - Sports Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Stats is one of my favorite bars in Southie. I tend to avoid it on the weekends but love trivia Tuesdays! Their salads are surprisingly good and creative -- weirdly enough Stats is my favorite place in all of Boston to get a salad. The other food on the menu consists of your standard pub fare and is pretty decent. They don't have too much going on in terms of unique beer, but do have a $3 monthly special which usually features something decent (Sam Alpine Spring, Brooklyn Summer, etc). Definitely a good place to grab dinner or watch a game in Southie! read more

When we showed up there was no one at the hostess stand that was kind of out of the way. There was a sign stating to wait to be seated so we waited there. Several minutes later another party came in and they seated them. We told the hostess that we were waiting to be seated and they just said "well you're in the wrong spot" instead of helping us when they had clearly seen us. When we were finally seated the waitress was great and the food came very quickly. The burgers were great and the fries were decent. The pickles were fabulous. As expected with this spot it was extraordinarily loud, but it was a good playlist. We went there in an act of desperation as there was a long wait everywhere else. I would go again in this situation but wouldn't go out of my way to go there again. read more

I've known Jim Statiros from his previous location on Broad Street, and what I've come to realize is that these Greeks really know how to prepare food. Everything I've ordered here has been phenomenal. Among some of the dishes I've enjoyed are burgers, the goat cheese salad, the buffalo calamari, and the Cuban. Don't be fooled into thinking that since this place is a sports bar it offers the same "so so" food as Playwright and BBG. And unlike its rivals, it has $3 beer specials! Stats is 5 stars in my book, which can be broken down as follows: -great for viewing sports games -newer, nicer, and cleaner inside than Southie sports bar competitors -affordable "underrated" food menu -superior crowd to competitors' (tolerable mix of Southie originals and yuppies) -happening night life -attractive staff and amicable owners read more

Great little Southie bar for watching the game. High energy young crowd. Order the Cajun Chicken Tenders. large plate of food that will feed two easy. read more

Went there this past weekend (Covid times, mask are still mandatory) and the servers had them on their chins talking over the drinks that were waiting to go out at the bar. Blatant disregard for state mandates and risky behavior. Walked by the kitchen to go to the bathroom and no one had their mask on in the kitchen. Don't open if you can't follow rules right now. read more

Always a great time when I'm in Boston. Food is good drinks are good. Definitely a fun time to bring friends or just watch a game. Staff is friendly and good looking for the fellas! Highly recommend read more

awful service. letting people cut in line for no reason, while others have been waiting 2 hours.

I have the pleasure of coming here weekly post sports league, and it's a great place to hangout. I can only speak on the appetizers and drinks, but that should be fine because MAN the appetizers are great. The chicken tenders here are wild. Wild. Like, it seems that they take practically entire chicken breasts and bread and deep fry them right there. The normal chicken tenders are good, but there are also cajun tenders and buffalo tenders which keep getting better as you progress. The plate is so huge that you could definitely get that as your entire meal, and likely not finish it all depending on how hungry you are. Another noteworthy app to try is the steak and cheese egg rolls, which are exactly what they sound like. Also give the honey garlic wings a try. The nachos had mixed reviews, some people loved them and some people (me) thought they could have been better, but I'm from California so what can I say? Overall there haven't been many complaints from anyone and I come here with a large group every time. Service could be better, but if you come with friends and have a few drinks and some chicken tenders you probably won't care. Good vibes, good food. read more

Got takeout from here during quarantine with my boyfriend, an analyst who lives in South Boston. Great window service but the girl was a bit too chatty with my date. Anyways, my steak was cooked perfectly and the salad was to die for. read more

We order from here a good amount since the food is easy and good usually. The greek salad with chicken I ordered tonight was not what I thought I was getting at all. There was only like 2 handfuls of lettuce - more olives and pepperchinis than lettuce. Definitely not worth the huge price tag of 19$. I can get a better salad down the road for half that price and it includes chicken and pita bread. Very disappointing order. read more

I've been here a few times and had a wonderful experience. Lauren is a great server, very attentive. The cocktails are so good, lots of options. Food portions are generous but not too big- just right. Everything tastes great and comes quickly! Trivia is a fun time with questions from lots of different categories, so something for everyone. There are multiple opportunities to win a prize, so it feels super accessible to all. The vibe is so nice too- music playing but not so loud that you can't hear yourself talk. Although it's a sports bar, even with a few games on, it's not too loud/boisterous at all. Overall a great place to go with a really welcoming feel to it and friendly staff. read more

I will say for a sports bar this place is a common go-to spot in southie. Although it is always overcrowded and service can often take a long time. The wait staff are very sweet and the drinks are strong which for the price you pay is worth it. Overall, just long wait times. read more

I would leave zero if i could. I came to get a few drinks. Got 2 drinks and left $3 .. would've gotten more drinks but we ordered a water and she refused to give it to us and said "we only pour drinks for tips" read more

Not only is their food amazing (some of the best french fries I've had in my life) but their staff are incredibly friendly and left the kindest note in my takeout container. I can't wait until I can go back in person (see more reviews of chicken tender restaurants at @one_to_tenders on Instagram) read more

The bartenders are the rudest, most unprofessional people I've ever ordered a beer from. They reminded me of highschool. Go down the street to Publico instead read more

All of the girls ive seen working here minus Cassie are very rude. Every time I come in I'm given dirty looks and disregarded overall when it comes to getting serviced compared to how guys are. Yes it's a sports bar so inevitably its male dominated but they shouldn't be the only ones getting taken care of well. Someone had to say it. I love stats though and everything else is awesome and will definitely continue on going there but just wish some of the female bartenders weren't so unwelcoming read more

the buff chicken dip was cold and the chips it came with were criminal it hurt my feelings
