This place delivers on all fronts. The atmosphere is delightful, the food is top notch, and the drinks are exhilarating. Liam is hands down the best bartender around. He is witty and wise and makes all kinds of great cocktails. Highly recommended. read more

The Bebop - Irish Pub Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

AS GOOD AS IT GETS Just felt i had to write a review of this bar. Credit where credits due !! My wife and i enjoyed a wonderful evening at the Bebop.Its definitely worth five stars. So where should i start? Menu: There is plenty to choose from. I would say it caters to all tastes. We shared the Bebop platter. Boy did that taste good. We both enjoyed it immensely! Service: First class. The staff were friendly and attentive, without being annoying. Glasses, cutlery and plates, clean and pristine. Atmosphere: Lively and buzzing. Entertainment: Really impressive. Cool gypsy jazz from some young wannabes. All in all a great bar, well worth a visit. Well done the Bebop. read more

I've been here a bunch of times in the last year and really love it. The staff is extremely friendly, especially Noreen! The food is pretty good and I can find something no matter how hungry I am. The live music is a fun surprise any night of the week too. Everyone always seems like they're having a great time, and that's really all you need right? read more

Best Pint of Guinness I've had since coming to Boston. Certainly one of the only bars in Boston were I can say the Craic is truly mighty.

Overall had a nice time at the Bebop. A fine meal and lot of wall art to appreciate. Also enjoyed the live entertainment.

I spent new years weekend here and it was a great time. Good atmosphere, live music and friendly bartenders. If you're looking for a pub go to bebop read more

Seriously the best espresso martini I've ever had. Staff were phenomenal and the prices were very reasonable

Stopped in for a quick drink before a tour at the Mapparium nearby. We got a pint of Magners and Smithwicks, nice Irish staples to have on draft. They have live music 7 days a week, 12 hours each day, so if you're a fan of live music and want to enjoy a relaxing pub atmosphere, this is a nice spot to do it at. read more

We are big fans of this place. We have been here many times and always look forward to coming back. Live music is always good and professional. The food is usually pretty good, and as vegans it's nice to find a pub with some options for us. We were here yesterday and my boyfriend got the falafel wrap and said it was a little bit undercooked but still a fine meal. Great place to stop for a nice drink and music! read more

I'm not sure how this place earned 4 stars. The wait staff was very nice. That's about it. I ordered a burger - medium. It came back rare. I sent it back, requesting again, medium. Somehow the very same burger came back rare, and this time the accompanying fries were cold. By the time this all wrapped up there was no time for me to order another meal as everyone had finished and we had somewhere to be. Additionally, someone at my table ordered pulled pork and instead got a falafel wrap. We had to wait for her correct order to come out. We were not billed for my burger, we were however billed for the additional falafel we hadn't ordered, along with the pulled pork. Had to have that corrected. I can't comment on whether or not the food was any good because I didn't get to eat it. I won't be going back to find out. read more

I have one word. Racist. We got some drinks and stepped out for a smoke after telling the bartender about it. Had a smoke and tried to walk in but the bouncer told us we were done. We were regulars at that place and always left a good tip and ordered a lot of stuff. These guys get ticked off by liberals btw. Avoid this place, it is not run by good people. Oh and by the way, their brunch sucks and their "avocado" toast has store bought shitty guac. Why oh why would anyone go to this place when Fenway has some real gems! read more

My boyfriend and I had a great experience at The Bebop thanks to Liam and Suffolk girl. Great food, great booze, great times!!! Definitely recommend it. (Make sure to ask Liam for green tea shots ) read more

Stay far away from this place. It is dangerous. Let me start by saying that I don't drink and haven't had a drink in 29 years. On Aug. 8 2017, myself and another middle aged mom from Palo Alto California were in Boston visiting our teenagers who were finishing a 5 week summer program at Berklee school of music. Two of their friends were performing at this restaurant and we took our children to sit at a table outside and listen to their young peers perform. So just to be clear, two suburban moms, two teenagers listening to two teens play folksongs on acoustic guitars. No one was drinking any alcohol. I don't drink and my friend may have had one glass of wine with dinner several hours earlier. We wanted some cokes and fries. But we never got a chance to order cokes, because within moments of us sitting down, the bouncer came over and was just incredibly rude. He was just super aggressive and rude and accusing us of "taking up tables and not getting anything," in an incredibly aggressive voice and demeanor. Apparently my Hillary Clinton hat set him off, because he (I am not making this up) leaned over the table toward me and yelled "are you going to eat or drink or just sit here and take chairs" very confrontationally and I said, I"d have a Diet Coke and my friend tried to order some fries. The Bouncer then continued to in a very angry voice yell something about our chairs and then said "do you have a problem" and I repeated that I would like a coke and I would like to hear the music. He said "You can't just come here with your Hillary Clinton hat" (my baseball hat). I was like "What?" This is crazy, and I can't hear the music. I decided he was nuts so I went inside to hear the music rather than engage with him. I tried to get my son to come in but he stayed outside with his friend. I went inside and tried again to order a coke from the bartender. I wanted to hear the children play their songs but before long there was a commotion outside. Now the bouncer was attacking another patron (not in our group) physically and flipped the table over. That guy apparently also failed to order enough food. IDK. At that point, my friend's daughter was crying hysterically, my son was panicking, and my friend and I tried to complain to the manager that the bouncer was behaving badly. She promised to address it and buy us drinks. I asked if I could bring my son inside and have him sit with me and she said yes. I went to get him and he was afraid of the bouncer, but I said no it's fine the manger (a blond Irish woman wearing a T-shirt from the Burren, another bar owned by the same owner) told me we can just come inside and we can avoid this guy. So I persuaded my son that we could go inside but the bouncer tried to physically block us from entering and cursed at me. My son then tried to protect me, and then the bouncer basically launched himself at me and my 5'4" 120 lb teenage son and I had to try to protect each other from this man, who was over 6' and probably 250 lbs with a very large neck and meaty face. It was bizarre. The whole time it was happening I was thinking, this is insane, I just wanted to get a diet coke and listen to these kids play their folksongs and now I am being attacked by a maniac who hates Hillary Clinton. I wrestled my kid away from him. Now all the kids were sobbing, my friend was calling the police, and the manager even though this happened literally in front of her face refused to send this employee home or to otherwise defuse the situation. By now a crowd of teens from Berkelee were there watching this debacle and saying that they felt unsafe and couldn't be inside the establishment. I have never experienced anything like this. Now my finger is probably broken, my wrist hurts, and my elbow is scraped. The police were called, and took a report. The whole thing was completely insane. It was like from a bad movie. I'm glad we weren't beaten and killed. I've been to the actual Burren in Ireland and to many many pubs all over Ireland and never have I experienced anything remotely like this. It was shocking. It was violent. It was uncalled for. Again, two suburban moms from the SF Bay and their teens trying to hear some folk music played by other kids ended in a violent attack by a bouncer over the fact that he hates Hillary Clinton hats. I never got to order food so I can't evaluate that. read more

This was a disappointment. The food...well one of our salads was missing ingredients listed on the menu and had the wrong dressing, but this was the highlight of the experience. The service was a disaster. For example, when we finished our meal, we stacked our plates and silverware...11 minutes later our waitress cleared them. It's not that she wasn't passing by and seeing us. I watched her walk around and clear tables, etc...and then we waited for the bill...and waited...and waited...another 20 minutes before I finally flagged her down and she came over so I could request the bill. You would think they wanted to turn the table, they were busy enough to need the table. read more

Love coming to the bebop on a weekly basis! Going to the bar your sure to have a laugh with Noreen! Great cocktails and food also!

I live right next door the this restaurant and was so excited watching them redo the place and seeing how it came along. I was looking forward to going in with my boyfriend. We went in on Saturday afternoon and it wasn't very busy. We ended up sitting at the bar for 10 minutes well several servers ignored us (not their job I understand). More specifically the bartender blatantly ignored us and was eating ice cream and chatting away. We ended up leaving without getting anything. As a server myself I was disappointed and it's not a good look for a brand new restaurant. I highly suggest getting your staff to step up their game because this place has great potential. I plan on going back so I'll follow up with hopefully a better experience. read more

We came to Boston to drop our son off at Berklee College of Music. We found this little gem the second night we were in town. We enjoyed the food and the music. What a great idea to have music all day. We were fortunate to be in the bar when an impromptu group with a piano, guitar, trumpet and fiddler played. WOW! Compared to our other awful customer service experiences in Boston, The Bebop was a breath of fresh air! read more

I have been waiting for a pub like The Bebop to open in my neighborhood for ages. The decor is awesome - dark wood everywhere, and a very cool second floor seating area. Good beer selection, and so far I've had a tasty burger and some lamb stew comfort food. I expect you're going to see a ton of live music in here, so get pumped. read more

We've been in Boston 3 days and have eaten at all the recommended restaurants, but the Bebop had the best food. Hearing the live music while walking by got us to stop in and the food has convinced us that it's quite possibly the best pub food in Boston. Our server Elizabeth was incredibly friendly and very informative. We will be back! read more

Great service and nice friendly owner ! Food is great and price is reasonable ! I like it because this place also have music performed by Berklee students. read more

Great service, great atmosphere. We happened to walk down the street and saw this pub, best choice ever. My friends got the lamb stew and burger, they said it was really good. I got the chicken pesto with sweet potatoes fries and it was very moist/flavorful. Portion sizes are awesome! Must go again. read more

The service is really good, the food is also very delicious. I got the shepherds pie it was really good my friend got a chicken cob and it was so good. I don't know about the drinks but the food is amazing. read more

Not that impressed by the food but the drinks are good and it's a total step up from the place it used to be. Also a nice performance venue, but it is kinda wack that they're basically busking. read more

The food was good, the service was really good and we had some music in the back. I would definitely recommend anyone to check this place out. The 2 ladies were so nice that night. Thanks a lot read more

Went here looking for a hotdog joint which apparently went out of business and was replaced with The Bebop. What a pleasant surprise! We had a couple pints of Guinness and BLTs during the Jazz Brunch. The sandwiches were hearty and accompanying french fries were delicious. Situated so closely to Berklee, the music was great. Our bartender was great! read more

Unbelievable place to eat and drink! Can't rate it highly enough. Especially Liam the bartender. Could not meet a nicer chap. Made you feel at home in the bar. Will be a frequent visitor in the future! read more

We're from NJ and Caroline was wonderful! She gave us spots to visit and check out and she was an amazing, fun, and exciting waitress. She's the best!!! Bringing a lot of customers in with her fantastic customer service skills. I would love to hire her for my business! Great job Caroline :) read more

Awesome spot for food and drinks! Had a burger and a few cold ones. Hands down one of the best burgers i have ever eaten! Bartenders Noreen and liam were so awesome!

I went there last Friday night to see some live music, the music was great, food was delicious, and the staff was really friendly! The vegan burger is bomb AF. The atmosphere is cool as well! read more

I appreciate Liam for all of his hard work! He is extremely kind and fun! Noreen is also quite wonderful and always makes the experience great! read more

They don't explain what you're ordering so I ordered Shepard's Pie not knowing it was meant for like 4 people. Asked to order something else instead and I was only offered to-go boxes. Money hungry monsters. The Shepard's Pie wasn't even good, don't waste your money. read more

Love this place! Always have a beboppin good time when I'm here! Big fan of the BebOp burgers! So yumme :)The music is ALWAYS on point. Honestly, great joint 11 out of 10. #fun#bebop #boston #beantown read more

Great food, nice ambiance, friendly staff. Will be coming back here FOR SURE! I can't believe they've only been open for one month.

Absolutely loved my bacon cheeseburger and fries. Would go back for this same meal. Also loved the atmosphere especially upstairs because we had the room almost to ourselves which was nice. read more

The Bebop - Irish Pub Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The portions of food were big enough for the price. The dishes are not impressively tasty, but they are pretty good. It was nice to sit outside when the weather is good, but the inside looks sophisticated too. Should be a good spot for dates. Great live music performance too! read more

Great eggs Benedict. The ambiance was nice, with live music and a bright atmosphere. But don't get the breakfast sandwich, it was plain and you could order better. read more

Lovely bar for live music and friendly service! Liam and Noreen are wonderful bartenders and have provided extraordinary service every time I have come! read more

Great food and music. Very lively environment. It is very close to Berkelee college of music. Very good crowd of music students. If you like bar food this is a perfect place. read more

The french toast was very soggy, but the eggs were good. Service was fast and the live music was good.

The best Irish pub! We had outstanding service from our bartender, Liam. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It was also fun hearing his recommendations of his own country (Ireland). The Bebop offers a great cocktail menu. We tried some items off the menu....gnocchi, Shepard's pie, fish & chips...all very tasty. We made a point to go back a second night for live music...so good! It's unfortunate we were only in town for the weekend. Liam's kindness would defiantly make us regulars. read more
