such a fun concept! The Oyster bar was fabulous, and being aboard the boat. The Clam bar didn't have chowder. We opted for the Taco place, such a cool silver truck. But--- the bowl, said "ROASTED VEGETABLES" on the board, came with RAW chunks of cauliflower, broccoli + zucchini, and shredded carrots. (Not at all the same) I asked the server if they were supposed to have been cooked. She said no. read more

free social space with overpriced food trucks & drinks. i like that they have cornhole, jenga, oversized connect 4. it would be better with more games. it has an off vibe if you are from boston. yes, it's nice & "free" and the view is gorgeous, buttt if this is what boston is turning into, it's been going downhill in a steep decline thanks to mediocre food, mediocre drinks, mediocre overpriced everything except the views. i almost prefer how it used to be... read more

The venue is beautiful and has a great atmosphere, but the lounge experience could be improved. The lounge was located in the back, quite far from the big screen, making it difficult to fully enjoy the game, and at times we could barely see what was happening. The service was courteous, although somewhat slow during peak times. My biggest issue was the pricing. It felt way too expensive for what was offered, with limited food and drink options available. We were also disappointed that individual drinks were not available, as they only offered buckets of the same beverage. Overall, it was a nice setting, but the experience did not justify the cost. read more

Came here with some friends to check it out without it being packed. This place is huge! There's the ship, with a huge bar with views of the city. There's also multiple food trucks, from seafood, chicken, to Mexican food and slushy drinks. There's also a large area, off the ship, that has large party seating, picnic tables, and areas to play bags (corn hole). All the staff we encountered were very friendly and welcoming except the girl at the bar on the ship. We ordered a couple drinks on the ship but when we asked her opinion on a couple of the drinks she seemed bothered and annoyed. Besides her, we had a great time and enjoyed the chicken, tacos and slushy drinks! We're definitely going back! read more

Tall Ship could be one of Boston's best summer spots--the views are unbeatable, the atmosphere is electric, and the waterfront setting is truly special. But none of that can distract from the fact that this place is a masterclass in price gouging. You can easily pay over $40 for TWO drinks (after tip + tax). Not fancy cocktails. Not pitchers. Just two basic drinks. That should be illegal. And here's the worst part: the owners know exactly what they're doing. They're not charging these prices because they have to--they're doing it because they can. Because people will keep showing up, keep paying, and keep posting about how "fun" it is while they're being blatantly taken advantage of. Tall Ship doesn't care about its customers. It's not built around hospitality, it's built around hype and greed. The owners have made it crystal clear: profit over people. And honestly, shame on them. I'm done spending money at places that treat their customers like open wallets. If you're tired of being gouged for the "privilege" of standing on a boat with a drink in your hand, skip Tall Ship. Beautiful doesn't make up for exploitative. read more

Came here to watch a World Cup game and it was a lot of fun. The food vendors were great and the views are stunning. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because the line to get a drink can get extremely long and at one point we waited almost 50 minutes. If tall ships could do something like Fenway and have canned beverages in a cooler that people can grab and checkout from that would be a lot faster and the bartenders could focus on cocktails vs grabbing cans and it would probably help reduce the lines. read more

We had a wonderful time celebrating our friend's birthday and spent well over $1,000 at your establishment because we wanted to enjoy the night and support your business. Unfortunately, our experience was completely overshadowed by the way we were treated. A staff member approached our group in an aggressive and hostile manner, demanding that we leave, even though it was the first time anyone had spoken to us about any issue. Instead of handling the situation professionally, members of your team escalated it, and one even told us to "go fuck ourselves." The humiliation and disrespect we experienced were unacceptable. We were simply a group of adults celebrating a birthday, not causing trouble or deserving to be treated in such a degrading way. We understand that businesses have rules and staff have difficult jobs, but there is never an excuse for speaking to paying customers with profanity and disrespect. We left feeling embarrassed and deeply disappointed after what had started as a wonderful celebration. I hope management takes this complaint seriously and addresses the behavior of the staff involved so that no other customers have to experience the same treatment. read more

On a beautiful day and you want a break? Are you looking for a place to watch football in the fall? Are you looking for a place for the family to play games and have good food? This is the place! We came here to watch a college football game on Saturday, what a perfect venue to be outside! They have a huge screen showing one of the games. And there are also TV's on the ship by the bar. They tuned on one of the games we wanted to watch. The service was good. They had Corn Hole, Jinga and other games to play. This place also has one of the best views of Boston. read more

Unique spot. Hands down the best harbor and skyline views. Especially awesome at sunset. Drinks and food are pricey ($18 for frozen drinks). Giant jenga, connect 4 and cornhole are scattered in the expansive open area among picnic tables and food stands. Tacos, chicken, clam shack, sushi and pizza are the options. Pizza was made fresh to order and good. Overall fun time and worth checking out - for the views alone! read more

Were wrongfully accused of bringing in our own drinks. Will not be returning which is disappointing because previously loved it.

To people to clam shack were nice enough, but I got an order of clam strips, and there was no meat. It was all overcooked dough, they didn't have the fish sandwich, so they gave me a clam. Strip sandwich, which was, how about one and a 1/2 ounces, and about $3 more than the clam plate? It was very greasy, an overpriced. I was very unhappy with the food my wife got a clam. Chowder, and it was watery, very little flavor no clams read more

Had a group of 7 come here when there was no event happening so it was not busy at all. It was free entry to go on the concrete area with the food trucks/kiosks which was nice. There is corn hole, jenga, connect 4, and many tables. The food spots were very good as my group all got different things. There was not a spot that we were disappointed by. The drinks were also very decent. A bit small for cocktails given some prices. The city line view is unbeatable. read more

The vibes and views are so so good, but unfortunately the food and drink quality just doesn't match up with the very high prices. We loved the live band, but $17 for a couple of mid tacos and $11 for a High Noon is just tough to swallow. read more

One of my absolute favorite places to be in the summer time. Whether daytime or at night, Tall Ship is always a good time. Stay on the outdoor grounds, or climb onboard the 245' vessel floating on the pier for some drink La and oysters. With gorgeous views, a wide selection of foods & delicious drinks, Tall Ship is a great outdoor lounge to visit for a lovey waterfront experience featuring live entertainment, food vendors, food trucks, the occasional pop ups & more. read more

This place was so cute and relaxed for an outdoor drink and some food. They have cornhole they have other outdoor games that you can play. They have tons of outdoor seating and outlooks the harbor in Boston and it's gorgeous. We got there a little bit earlier today during a little bit and there was no line. It was easy to come into a lot of seats get taken up a lot of the board games get taken up because it is a popular busy place. But wait for the drinks and the food was very minimal so that was good. When we left, which was around 4 PM, there was a very long line to get in so I would definitely recommend trying to get there a little bit earlier to avoid waiting in the line. I would totally come back here just because the ambience was so nice nautical and coastal. It's like no other. It was beautiful. read more

Very cool spot. We took the boat over and back, which was fun. The ship has amazing views of the Boston city skyline. It was cool to enjoy a drink and some fresh shucked oysters while hanging out on a ship on the water, even if the ship wasn't moving. And then, we really enjoyed the turf area next to it, with a bunch of food trucks, more bars, corn hole, giant Jenga, and connect Four. Fun for our friend's 10-yr old nephew. Definitely enjoyed the experience! read more

We came here on a non-event Thursday night, and there was no line and free entry. The area is so beautiful at sunset/night because of the lights strung up and the city skyline. They have a lot of outdoor games and music playing if you want some excitement, or tables lined by the waterside if you want to sit in a quieter area. It's a nice spot for a drink and some food. The pizza truck there is also pretty good - the toppings are very fresh and the crust is very fluffy. read more

Very fortunate to come on Monday night, where no one was there so it was a perfect night not too windy clear temperature just perfect and the skyline view was incredible!

Came here for a corporate team outing and we had a really nice time! We had two side-by-side seating areas next to each other to ourselves and although we came on quite a hot, sunny day, by the time the sun had set it was such wonderful, perfect weather. This spot has a ton of seating and food for the masses as well as really nice bathroom, surprisingly. They have activities such as corn hole and large jenga which was pretty fun as well. Service was decent and our dedicated server never left us alone for too long which was nice. The food options they had were really expensive, but quality wasn't too bad. The seafood shack we chose forgot my entree, but they hand delivered it to me when it was done and it was super filling as well as just overall very solid so I'm glad I chose it. The ice cream sandwich they offer as well at one of the other shops was great - free toppings as well so I couldn't miss out on the m&ms. Overall, great spot to hang out with friends by the water. The views are stunning, the food and drinks are decent, and I would gladly come back. Thanks, Tall Ship! read more

In my opinion, Tall Ship lives up to the hype. I hardly ever go to East Boston, but apparently that's the place to be. The views from Tall Ship are simply unmatched. Even though there was a line, there wasn't any cover, and it was worthwhile for the fun vibes. There were more vendors than I expected. You can find all the drinks you'd expect, as well as lots of food stalls. Most of the stuff is overpriced, but that's what I imagined. If you're heading back to Boston, take the ferry back for some more views! read more

Great place to spend a summer afternoon, and the perfect spot to show off Boston to out of town visitors! I don't make it over to Eastie often, but if I do, this is almost always the reason. Before we get any further here, I want to mention that my 5 star rating is in regards to the overall experience. You can definitely get better food, cocktails, and prices at plenty of other places, but Tall Ship is one of a kind thanks to the atmosphere and the venue itself. The star of this place (other than the stunning water and city skyline views) is the ship itself, it's a massive sail boat with a couple of bars and a raw bar on it, plus lots of standing room to enjoy the view or catch a game on one of the TVs hanging above. The pier next to it features tons of seating, lawn games, a huge projector screen for games, and lots of food and drink stalls to choose from. This visit, I sampled oysters, fried clams, and fried calamari from a few different vendors. Again, you can find better food all around Boston, but it was all tasty and there's something about eating seafood on the water with a tropical cocktail in hand that just hits different. This place is only open seasonally, and it's really popular (especially with the younger crows), so it can get pretty packed. You can reserve private roped off lounge areas, but it's a bit pricey, so I'd just keep the line in mind when you're choosing when to visit. Overall - a great way to spend a day in East Boston. I'll see you next Summer for sure, Tall Ship :) read more

Interesting concept and a great beer garden energy. The view of the city is awesome. It's spacious, lots of seating, there are plenty of cornhole and jenga games, but some of our cornhole bean bags were missing? Also feels a bit weirdly removed and in a quiet area if you walk there from the T stop. The drinks are pricey (~$20, with tax and tip). I indulged in the spiked slushies, which are definitely worth it. The mudslide is SO good, it's basically kahlua in slushy form. The banana flavor is surprisingly yummy too, especially when mixed with the mudslide. They offer samples of the slushies as well! I'd suggest to go here with a group and during the day! Also seems more of a summer spot, it gets very chilly with the wind! read more

Spectacular and immense space for lounging, vibing and catching what is probably the best view of Boston imaginable. Some poorer reviews quibble with the quality/price of drinks but you can order great IPAs (eg., true north, castle Island) for $10, as well as all the High Noons you can desire--and the rest is a paradise of free games, big outdoor screens, uncrowded seating, live music, and views, views, views. read more

I'd been wanting to check out The Tall Ship since it opened and finally got to go! We were worried there would be a wait, but we walked right in on a Friday around 4:30. The bar was pretty well stocked and I got an Aperol Spritz while my friend chose a Truly. Service was quick, but the drinks were on the pricy side. The novelty of being on a floating vessel really made the experience worthwhile. We walked around the Navy Yard (right next to the ship), which had food vendors and lawn games. We ended up getting a half dozen oysters from the raw bar on the ship, which were fresh and delicious (although again, pricy). Overall, we had a fun time and enjoyed the good vibes and beautiful views. Would love to return for a sunset! read more

This is one of the first bars I went to in Boston and it truly encompasses living in the city. It's a place I love to take friends that visit because it's such a fun and unique concept of a bar on a docked ship with a little grass area next to it where people can mingle, see views of the city, and play cornhole! My biggest advice: don't get drinks on the ship because it takes longer. Instead, go towards the left back where they have frozen drinks that are so much more fun than the regular. I love a good pina colada and was sad when I got one of the drinks at the front and realized that they had it here all along and in a less than nothing line! Enjoy and own that ship! read more

so we were in Boston for a couple days and a friend of the cutest of chicks said we needed to be here so here we were... and I've been pondering this for a couple months and unless I'm missing something I really don't understand what we'd been missing; someone made a bar out of a fairly large vaguely historical three-masted ship and anchored it on the other side of the harbor... on the plus side it isn't sailing away anytime soon and there's no cover charge to drink on the boat. the pier is a whole different sort of let down entirely: stand around for a while and watch people stand in line at the food trucks and play corn hole or maybe corn hole or a different other cornhole or watch some big TVs out of doors on uncomfortable seating. heard some talk that them was supposed to maybe put in a skating rink for the winter but I'm not sure what the draw would be. getting frost bite AND a radial fracture? best part of this whole adventure was the boat ride across the harbor. hanging out in the breeze looking out across the water was totally worth the fares both forth and back. read more

Fun place to grab a drink for a gorgeous summer day in Boston! You get to see the city skyline. There are lots of seating and game/activities to keep you entertained.

This location is gorgeous, and it's a great spot to catch up with friends, see a beautiful sunset over the harbor, or even catch a workout class surprisingly.

Fun atmosphere and great place to take kids that are under 21 but still want to go out. There might be street parking but there is also valet for maybe $25. Which is significantly easier. Food and drink trucks are there. Some are better than other. All are expensive, and I feel as though you're paying a premium for the locations. There are Porta potties for the bathrooms and also the nicer version, too. Recently found put that if your on the ship section and leave to go to the bathroom you don't have to wait in line. Just make sure to ask for a ticket for something. The place has really great views of the city. However, the staff is very hit or miss. I've had some rude staff members there and I've been multiple times read more

Recommend for the atmosphere. The drinks are ok as well as the oysters. The food I have tried here, including the clam chowder, crispy chicken rice bowl, and burrito bowl were all expensive and mediocre in flavor. I don't recommend you get dinner or lunch here, maybe some oysters or apps. read more

Visited for the first time last night with a small group. The views of the city are amazing and there is plenty of space for everyone. I think it's cool one of the bars is on the actual ship. They had 2 large screens set up showing sports. They also had several lawn games including cornhole. Would stay away from cocktails as the Aperol Spritz I got was very watered down even though it cost $18. Better to eat beforehand too as the food options are mediocre and overpriced. Seems to be kid friendly as well as we saw many there with their families. read more
