Diner Reviews
  • "great kale soup I would go back every day for it - great place for lunch"
    Dined on 4/8/2014
  • "I have been coming to JJ Foley's for years now. Whether for a drink after work, dinner at the bar or at a single table with a book, casual dinner with friends or visiting family, or a celebration, it feels like coming home. Lunch and dinner meals are great, from apps and salads to sandwiches, burgers and entrees. "Comfort" food for sure, but solid pub standards and remarkable specials, too. Haven't tried brunch yet, but have no doubt I would like it. Friendly, neighborhoody, comfortable, reliable. Love it!"

  • "I went to JJ Foley's to celebrate my birthday with ten friends. Our waitress was prompt and attentive despite the fact that we arrived in spurts over the course of about 45 minutes. The dining room is set up with a couple of nooks with booths, that perfectly accommodated our group of 11. This was nice because it made it feel like we had our own exclusive space. It is additionally impressive that they were able to be flexible (we changed from 11, to 13 and back to 11 guests), given the size of the group and that I made the reservation on a Tuesday for that Saturday. The food was delicious pub style options. There was a good variety of tasty cocktails, but also a decent variety of beer selections."

  • "I went to Foley's for corn beef and cabbage- it was excellent. The portions were just right, and cooked to perfection, a flavorful meal."

  • "great meal - turkey burger with cold slaw- I replaced french fries with the cold slay which was tasty and crispy - with a nice punch to it - not soupy. Turkey burger had a delicious peppery flavor - juicy and very flavorful. A terrific meal."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "We dragged my in-laws reluctantly to this restaurant because it had good reviews and appeared kid friendly. Needless to say we were very happy with the food and service that we received and my in-laws are still talking about the fish and chips and shepherds pie! we highly recommend this place!!"
    Dined on 1/25/2014
  • "Best Burger in Boston - juicy, the bun was fresh and held on to the pickle and ketchup. The flavor was delicious."
    Dined on 2/3/2014
  • "I spent the morning running around the City and found myself at Foley's freezing and hungry for a late lunch. The chicken corn chowder was excellent - it had a slight kick to it but rather than being spicy it enhanced the corn flavor. I had it with a side of coleslaw and regretted being full, I would have enjoyed another bowl of soup. Excellent soup looking forward of returning."

  • "Lunch today was the best chicken and rice soup I have ever had - a nice big steaming bowl with carrots, celery, onions and moist white chicken meat. It was such a pleasure today."
    Dined on 1/7/2014
  • "Late Late lunch - tuna melt was the perfect comfort food - I was cold + hungry + feeling just UGH but that tuna hit the spot it was delicious"
    Dined on 1/4/2014
  • "Lunch today was a terrific barley soup with a chicken sandwich - the bread was toasted just right - the chicken salad was flavorful no mayonnaise overkill. The soup was just the right balance of barley and beef - I had a bowl"

  • "Lunch time soup was the greatest I love kale soup this was the best - I highly recommend it"
    Dined on 12/23/2013
  • "Sunday brunch - Irish Sausage and a veggie omelet - it was the best - lots of good coffee - the homemade biscuit w/ honey butter spread melted in my mouth. Can't wait to go back again. And Santa was there - who can resist whispering in his ear wishes for a wonderful year for all."

  • "Had a bunch of family in town for Thanksgiving and needed a place to eat on the day after. The food was great, service was outstanding, and we had a great time all together. Thanks to Foley's youngest for the friendly and prompt service!"

  • "Great dinner met friends - tried Duck Tacos they were delicious. The Chicken and corn chowder was tasty, had a good broth that held the ingredients together without diluting the flavor. very enjoyable meal"
    Dined on 11/1/2013
  • "good curry chips, fish n chips, shepards pie, awesome beer on tap, wing and bar bites all very good. Real small irish pub but with room to spread out. True boston experience worth having"

  • "Chosen as a last resort and was much better than expected. Good for a party"
    Dined on 10/25/2013
  • "We had brunch at JJ Foley's on Berkeley St in the South End this past Sunday and we were very pleased to say the least. We hadn't been there before but I had a feeling we would like it. Well, let me say it exceeded even those expectations. I had the duck hash and eggs (would go back just for that) and a Newcastle Brown Ale on draught and my wife had an omelet and a Bloody Mary which were very good as well. This was served to us with some lovely biscuits and honey-butter by a most delightful Irish waitress who made us feel like it was or 100th visit not our first. It was a bit quiet that morning but I can imagine the place getting quite lively when the crowds begins to roll in."

  • "Harried day slipped into Foley's for a late lunch of a big green salad I choose to add salmon - it was delicious. The greens were fresh and tasty none of that iceberg lettuce stuff. and the balsamic dressing is very tasty. And the service was excellent. Looking forward to my next visit."
