About this restaurant

Good for groups
Lively
Great for craft beers

Hennessy’s, where the feel of rural Ireland merges with the upbeat pace of Downtown Boston offers you a unique dining and entertainment experience. Relax in the summer sunshine by the open windows and watch Boston pass before you, in winter, cozy up in front of our coal fire. All year round Hennessy’s brings to you that ultimate Irish tradition: a home away from home. Indeed, it is that down to earth hospitality and comfort that has had us voted “Best Irish Bar in Boston” for six years in a row!

Hennessy's is a bar that also offers food! The food is excellent. Ours consisted of meatloaf, shepherds pie, steak tips and fish&chips We all enjoyed our meals very much! Only disappointment was no Dessert so we had coffee with Baileys Irish Cream! It did the trick! Not fancy, it is more of bar than restaurant so just know that ahead and you won't be disappointed on your visit!

I was shocked when i went for my meal. TO call this a restaurant or even a pub is an insult to both venue types. This is a college bar or dive bar. They little food i had was poorly prepared, i had drunk kids stumbling over me and scaring my children and saw an argument that became physical . I did not feel safe with my family. Should not be on open table. There is much better in Boston for better value and a better experience. 1/10 NEVER again
