   We had a really good meal at The Fed. It features solid pub fare—burger was good, drinks were creative and well prepared, and the service was excellent. We’d recommend it for a relaxing evening with good food.

   Very nice setting and decent selection of food and drinks. Pretty good value too with the portion sizes - definitely a place to visit when in Boston

   After trying the Fed a couple months ago I’ve ventured back multiple times. Fun place with great drinks, food and service. My wife and I will be back again soon.

   Really delicious food and a great wine/bar list. Seating is set up to be loungey which can be a little less comfortable for dinner but not terribly awkward. It's a high volume place but the tables are spaced well so you aren't on top of your neighbors listening to every word 🤣

   Service was good and good recommendations when present. Unfortunately short staffed so poor server was overly stretched.

   Wonderful experience at the Fed ! We requested a special drink that we loved years ago but is not as popular now . The bartender improvised an amazing drink for us

   Unique place with a limited but very good menu. I’ve eaten here several times and have always had a good meal. Drinks are terrific and it has a nice ambiance, although, some of the chairs are a bit odd (especially for someone with a bad back). Recommend you give it a try.

    I think the food is very good. Service is seriously lacking esp at a high end hotel. You order something and it is not correct. Staff is so MIA you have to hunt them down for help. However, the food is good and it is always quiet so it is a tough decision to go or not.

    The menu was lacking and overpriced. The crab cake was dry and tasted frozen with no seasoning. There was no one there and the service was pretty slow. Wish we’d just gone somewhere else but we stayed at the hotel and decided to try it. The popcorn macaron ice cream sandwich wasn’t all the reviews seemed to suggest, but the sticky toffee pudding was very good. At least we ended on a high note.

    First visit and consistent with the majority of reviews; setting and ambience is great with beautiful retro-style bar setting, food is excellent with a small, focussed menu - the duck 'wings' were the highlight! Service was the one area that lets it down; to be clear, the actual service we received was excellent, it just took an age to be seated, our order taken, drinks served etc as they're clearly understaffed. I appreciate this is impacting all industries but this has been a comment in reviews for over a year now, mgmnt need to address the issue.

    The fish and chips (crispy cod and fries) were served soggy. The steak was slightly over cooked. It was also way too loud in the establishment - feels like we were in an Irish pub.

    Initial impression was “nice decor”. Then we had plenty of time to survey the entire room and ambience, noting the youth of the clientele! We waited and waited at the entrance as servers walked past us, two elderly ladies. Finally after about five minutes we asked a server if we should just seat ourselves. Hhe asked if we had reservations. Then he got another server who seated us at a corner table for four. Our waiter was gracious, asked if we were guests at the hotel, brought our drinks promptly, asked if we wanted any modifications to our order. The drinks were nicely presented and the hamburgers were great. The noise level was pleasantly low so we could have a quiet conversation. Tha waiter thanked us for coming, asked if we enjoyed our visit and invited us to return.

    We enjoyed a fun night out at the Fed. Service was attentive and we tried four different cocktails and they were all excellent. For drinks alone, it was a 5-star experience. Food-wise, the menu is quite limited. The oysters and lobster we had were great. Steak frites was well-prepared but the amount of steak was slightly underwhelming. Will return for drinks and maybe try the seafood tower next time.

    Food options were great. Everything was delicious, although the portions were a little small for the price that was charged. The server was fantastic--just attentive enough to make sure all of our needs were taken care of, but not overly aggressive. The bar has a good ambiance. While we liked the food, we would be reluctant to go back given the prices that were charged.

    The service was impeccable, given that everything is slower these days, and the drinks were works of art. The food was extremely salty. Usually when I think food is salty, it's practically inedible to anyone else. I had the steak frites and I could see visible crystals of salt. My husband couldn't eat the fries as they made him pucker up from the salt; this was a win for me as I got to eat them for him. There were very limited options for vegetarians. Overall, I think this place can improve. However, I look forward to seeing it get better and I would try it again at a later time.

    The FED is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is pretty good, wine & dessert options yummy! 100% worth it.
