    We stopped here for some chowder after a long day of touring. The soup was delicious and our kids loved their order (pork and cabbage dumplings). We sat outside under the lights and were happily distracted by football scores on the screen. We were seated and served very quickly! Nice job all around.

    The food was delicious and the portions ample. Great array of gluten free choices for a member of our party with a gluten and dairy intolerance. Our server was attentive and there could not be a better atmosphere than a place out of American history with a touch of the Irish. Our favorite place at Quincy Market used to be Durgin Park. We have found something equally good to replace it with Ned Devine’s.

    The staff were incredibly helpful (we were celebrating a family birthday and they had the chocolate cake ready to go with 2 candles lit all set for the wish making!) Our food was delicious, and when we asked at the outset for a slightly larger table, the hostess switched us immediately.

    The food was okay, not worth the money spent though. I expected the food to be more "Hocus Pocus" themed, but it was just regular food. The decorations and music were on-spot though, and the waitress was dressed as a witch which was really nice. The waitress was amazing, and gave us a free LED cup.

    We were there for the Hocus Pocus Brunch. We really enjoyed it. The decorations were super cute. The drinks were fun and delicious. Our food was good too. I got the Eggs Benedict. I prefer my eggs really runny. These were kind of hard but everything tasted great. We had alot of fun. Really enjoyed it.

Everyone liked there food very much (pretzels, soups, burger, fish n chips). Service was friendly but speed slightly slow. Atmosphere fun, restaurant on 2nd level (must climb stairs), location ideal inside shopping area if Fau Hall. We will come back

    The pub was quiet. We were seated right away. The menu was extensive. Two of us ordered the fish and chips. I think these were my favorite from anywhere! My husband had a burger which was delicious! Shae got the Tomato soup and grilled cheese. Everything was very tasty. The Guinness on tap was perfect!

    The hostess was very.racist. We asked for outdoor seating hoping we get a table with umbrella to cover us from the sun. But instead gave us a table with no umbrella, while having a couple of empty tables with umbrellas. When ask if we can get a table with an umbrella. Immediately shut me down and told me that the tables were reserved. Didn’t even bother to accommodate my wife and I. Also when I mentioned about my reservation that I made for 2. She asked in a rude tone table for how many. Meanwhile I had made a reservation for 2 people from the beginning. We lost our appetite and decided to leave.

    My friends and I, 10 of us, recently dined at Ned Devine's in the Marketplace in Boston on July 4. We had an excellent experience! Even though it was very crowded, the service was fast and the servers were very friendly and helpful. Also, the food was excellent! It's traditional American fare, but was cooked perfectly to order and very tasty! I highly recommend this recommend this restaurant whether you're visiting from out of town or if you're a local. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

    Food was fine, service was okay, although in several occasions we tried to get our server's attention for more drinks and she seemed completely oblivious to us. The disappointing thing was they were still using their reduced menu (presumably a covid thing), even though there was no indication of this on their web site. Went in expecting a much bigger selection, but what we had was okay, standard pub fare.

    Server was terrible, we waited 10 minutes for her to acknowledge we were there. The party that was seated after us got their beverage & food before us. We raised concern over a food allergy after we received our dish and she said she would go check. Never came back to say anything. 15 minutes later, when I asked for another beverage she then said it didn’t have any issues, otherwise she would have told us (which she didn’t say). The real doozy was that when the check came she split our bill with another credit card in the envelope (which was not from our party). We had to bring this to her attention. She supposedly corrected and ran the charge again. I’ll be verifying my statement to make sure I’m not double charged. We went there for the award winning chowder. It was good, but the service was so atrocious, we will not return!
