Lost it's Charm...Steamer Clams have gotten smaller, Property getting run down including large potholes in parking lot. No longer our go to favorite for Seafood. read more

The Boston hotel has been here forever, an unpretentious and reliable Seafood House. Lots of regular customers, waitresses, who remember your order preferences from the last time you were here, and a menu that is small, but well thought out. From the front it looks like there is limited parking, but if you go around to the back of the building, a large lot will accommodate you. Upon entry, you will walk by the bar area, which is filled with sports enthusiasts watching the game on high definition screens. Full bar and you can get food at the bar. Walk past it and into the very casual dining room. Come dressed as you are. One might expect that you will get typical bar food. You will be happy when your meal arrives to see beautifully prepared seafood cuisine. The broiled seafood platter is enormous and comes on two separate trays. The portions are large, and they will accommodate special requests. We love this place and only bring people who care about good food and a friendly atmosphere. No snobs at the Boston hotel. Cash only. They bring boxes because you will have leftovers. Enjoy. read more

Great tavern food & service at reasonable prices. Try the Surf & Turf in many combinations. Friendly & easy atmosphere for friends & family

Always a good choice ! Seafood, Steaks, Pasta, Sandwiches, Wings, whatever there is a choice for everybody. Our waitress was quick to greet us/ take drink orders and seemed to know when we were ready to order food. Food was perfect: clams 3 ways, raw, steamed & casino. read more

The value for your $ is fantastic. My wife and I sat at the bar. My wife ordered fish and I had class (app) and steak tips. Everything was greT and the cost is really really reasonable. Add a few beers ,(one bought by the owner who was thanking people and chatting with people at the bar. It's more of a no frills but if you want really good food at a great price, try Boston Hotel! read more

Marg, (server) was great! Kind and accommodating. The was a handicapped young person she was willing to go the extra mile. Their server was not nice or accommodating. She was my server as well, she was no nice & would no see if there was an end cut, i wanted medium & got rare. my wife's pork chop - undercooked. To small table! read more

All of us together started with an order of lobster daisies, which are served with butter always very tasty. I had a steak with mashed potatoes steak had a really nice chair on it and the flavor was excellent. read more

Inexpensive lobster tails up to a pound (when thay have the large ones) Great seafood with pasta (red or alfredo sauce) We Love this Place! Also steaks, prime rib, roast beef sandwiches and more Thanks Rebel! See you soon! read more

I ordered chicken fingers and french fries. The chicken fingers were soggy and the fries were dried out and tasted like ass. I only ate two. I told the waitress ~ she said she was so sorry. when the bill came nothing was taken off, which would've been nice but I didn't ask for anything so I guess it's on me. I won't be going back. Too many great places to eat ~ ~ this isn't one of them. read more

After having been there a few times in the past, we stopped in for lunch and to get some clams. When you walk in, the stench of bad seafood and ammonia could knock you over. The place was near empty so we sat at the bar which was filthy. We ordered a drink, but knew there was no way we would eat there. The bartender was busy chatting with the only other person at the bar (I think was also an employee). We paid for our drinks and left. Disgusting place, go elsewhere. read more

Celebrated my dad's 82nd birthday here as this was his choice. My scallops had no taste, the mixed veggies were basically cooked carrots, the fries were a little undercooked. My husband's seafood platter was pretty good, the lobster tail was the best part. It was our second time here. I'm just not impressed. Our server was nice. read more

First of all kudos to the waitress. Our party of 12 was a lot for her to handle with other patrons as well. We were not allowed separate checks or putting our lunches on credit cards, so figuring out the check was not easy! I ordered the BBQ chicken and bacon sandwich. Side choices were soup, coleslaw or macaroni salad. The restaurant only had soup. The chicken noodle soup had nice flavor, but was not hot. Lots of noodles and pieces of chicken, but not hot. My sandwich was very tasty, and with the BBQ sauce, quite messy Prices are very reasonable. It is a pretty good distance from my home. read more

Love the food... great prices, but could use a good cleaning. Clumps of dust built up on all the ceiling tiles along with cob webs on the walls. Can't have a great place when it's dirty read more

I really do love this hidden gem. Prices are reasonable and the staff are always so nice. I've only been here a few times, but the food / flavor has been consistent and that's really important. read more

You probably wont get the best service, but the food is outstanding. I usually get the crab leg special which always has a good amount of meat in the legs. The two locations only accept cash which is a pain to have to grab cash for a dinner night. I'd recommend both locations. read more

The Boston Hotel - Crab leg dinner - Sports Bars Near Me - Lancaster, New York

Really nice servers, very attentive, homey atmosphere, no frills. All the food was great. I will definitely go again.

Shrinkflation has invaded what, for many years, was my go-to place for raw clams. Prices are below average, but now the clams are too. Tried it twice to be fair. Clams are fresh, reasonably priced, but tiny. read more

We were craving seafood on a budget. I met my cousin for an early bird dinner. we were the only two patrons in the restaurant 3pm on a wednesday. The server was the bartender as well as server. With that being said she wasn't real attentive. even though we were the only people in the restaurant? The bar was packed?? Huh? Anyway the shrimp cocktail was fresh tasty and visually appealing. The dainties were tasty but the clarified butter tasted like movie theater popcorn butter? Clues, all clues! I had the broiled seafood platter, Haddock, shrimp, clams casino, scallops and a lobster tail. salt potatoes, mixed veg and roll and butter. a lot of food! but you could tell immediately it was all from frozen and old frozen... Not really tasty and for $36.95 I just expected more flavors not just the movie theater butter!! I do not recommend. I will not go back! read more

Stopped in after a round of golf and glad that we did. We each had a different entree and we had all agreed that it was fantastic. We also shared some oysters and clams that were ice cold and delicious! The service was excellent as we couldn't have asked for more. The ambiance is friendly and clean. Would definitely recommend this establishment to everyone. Just fantastic. read more

Our waitress was great. The food was awful. An appetizer served on what looked like a wet frisbee to start. What was supposed to be stuffed green hot peppers was the worst interpretation I've ever had. The peppers were tasteless mush with tasteless stuff inside and an odd hard tasteless crust on top. I came for the crab legs and these weren't good either. Maybe not in season? They were scant with meat, dry and frozen tasting. They don't even give you a warmer for the fake butter served in a plastic cup. Home-cut fries were ok but a measly amount. The one good item was the strip steak which was cooked perfectly and had a delicious charcoal cook. Please please if you don't want to be a restaurant don't bother serving food. The bar is the focal point and not the food. read more

I used to love going to this restaurant. But their sea foods had pneumonia smell which means it was getting old, and should not have been served. I will not go there anymore, the service was subpar, and I wouldn't even rate it a one if I could go lower. A real disappointment. Used to be one of the best, now it's one of the worst read more

My first time there. I want to say that the food was excellent. I had prime rib medium rare and it was actually medium rare. It was extremely tender. My wife and cousin had crab legs , clams casino and steamed clams. All of which they loved. Our server Kim was extremely friendly and attentive. We had our 10 month old Granddaughter with us and Kim took the time to talk to the baby too.She even asked me if I wanted more hot au-jus when she figured mine was getting cold. Most places I have to ask for that. I highly recommend this place if you want some great food and ask for Kim, because I know you will get the best possible service. I even met the owner on my way out and let him know how good everything was. He was very happy for the positive feedback. We will be going back next time we are in Buffalo. read more

The Boston Hotel - Surf and turf - Sports Bars Near Me - Lancaster, New York

Hotel is hit n miss. We go 2 x a month , sometimes more, one meal is great, the next is so so. Crab legs shells are soft, crab is dry. Lobster was raw in the middle of tail, but the steak that accompanied it was perfection. I had lobster dainties they were a lil dry. We have clams casino n raw clams n oysters with a Parmesan sauce. Those are always great. So I say the food is hit n miss. The staff was great no issues there! The hotels dining room are showing its age and lighting is a little dim. We will go back? Yes.... Just for the shell foods. Which we eat at the bar with a couple Cocktails. read more

This classic divey surf and turf joint is back open for business after a kitchen fire. In true fashion it's no reservations and no cards. Cash only. They have been around for years and we knew that. My friends and I wanted to get some dinner and support local business. Some of us it was a return trip and to a couple it was the first time. We knew the routine and got there early. The food was good. The surf and turf a favorite, the lobster dainty's good. The drinks good. Roast beef a little dry and fries were room temp. We liked it and worthy of 4 stars. Why 3? From the moment we walked in, it seemed like more than 4 dining was an annoyance to the waitress. It wasn't busy and we came early. We got bluntly told no separate checks (we didn't ask) and the topper was when we offer to order a friend a drink. It was met with a OKkkkk! and deep sigh. So we came, we saw, and we are good. Probably won't come back. read more

Always love crab legs here! Wasn't great when I was there last time, but for the price you can't beat it. Definitely want to come back and eat more crab legs. read more

Haven't had a bad meal here. Oysters are very good. Would highly recommend eating here.

I've been coming here for decades and every time I'm still amazed at how great the food & service is! Get your good bag on because my family and I create a smorgasbord of seafood yumminess! The clams casino are hands down top 3 in the buffalo area! Get yourself a couple of dozen lobster danties, and check our the specials board for what's in from the Boston run! Relax while Renee or Mike whip you up a Bloody Cesar. Thank you Rebel for creating a great neighborhood pub with great food, great prices, and hometown feel! read more

We wanted surf and turf, and this was a decent place to go. A little hole in the wall but the prices were decent and the food was scrumptious. I got the ribeye and lobster tail. The steak was cooked to perfection. The lobster was tasty but not the best I've had. LOVED the fresh cut fries. Would go back! read more

I ordered food and a bowl of soup but I didn't get the soup. It was given to the people who just came in and ordered. I was told they ran out by our waitress. I ordered 1 cup and those people who was bigger party and was her friend got it instead of me. Then to top it off my drink had hair in it. Then for payment you have to pay in cash only. Which we didn't have so we had to use their atm. Our food did not come in a timely matter. Our water drink was low. I was not impressed by this location. Food was not all that great either. read more

I've been coming to this place for a while now and it doesn't fail to disappoint. They serve fresh/raw oysters and clams at a very affordable price and their seafood is fresh as well. I have never had a rude server and the owner always comes out every now and then to make sure the food is good. It has a nice small town pub feel to it. It is cash only, but I believe they have an ATM at the location. Would recommend for a casual dining experience with friends and I will definitely be returning. read more

Now thats what i call delicious steamed crab leg meal! The place is not that impressive on the outside but the food makes up for it. You eat seafood here or dont come. Salmon is delish but the king crab and scallops is where the money is! Get extra butter and a beer! read more

I grew up in Buffalo but I've never heard of this place. A buddy of mine kept urging me to go so this late afternoon I bellied up to the bar and had a great experience. The home made chicken noodle soup was outstanding, the bar staff was friendly and efficient and the locals were cordial. For dinner I had the surf and turf with the ribeye steak medium rare,lobster tail, salt potatoes and veggies. The steak was served a perfect medium rare with a nice char. The lobster tail was very good and even the veggies and potatoes were outstanding. The portion was so large I'll have it again for dinner tomorrow night. I'm a bit baffled by the negative reviews for this place. Maybe you caught them on a rare off night? If you go here understand that you're not going to experience elegant dining. TheBoston Hotel is just a dive bar with great food. I'll be back. read more

My friend took me here after I helped her painting and cleaning her house. I love seafood so this seems to be the perfect place for me. We got lobster dainties, clams, mussels, baked oysters. I still drooled just to think of it. My favorite is the oysters. My least favorite is the clams, they are a bit chewy. The other bad thing is they only do cash only. I don't normally has cash on me. And the weird thing was when I asked for box to go, the waitress said something about health code violation or something??? Whaat? My friend ended up getting a box for me and I took it with me. read more

The food is always amazing. Fresh cut french fries, the freshest seafood, especially the raw oysters, best prime rib sandwich in town, I could go on and on about their food. It is casual dining and the staff goes out of their way to make you feel at home. Will go back (and do go back) time and time again. read more
