"The history of this place is a draw alone I mean how many places can you have drinks and food where George Washington, Paul Revere, and Benjamin Franklin sat to have drinks? The added plus is that the vibe here is great, the prices are amazing, and the bar service was absolutely fantastic. We were able to grab bar seats (thanks to those who shifted down so we could fit! , which is always my personal preference. Devon (sp? the bartender was fantastic FAST despite a very full bar, fun, personable, and hilarious. Really enjoyed her personality, drink making skills, and conversation! We had come from Harpoon, so weren 't starving, but definitely wanted to take advantage of the $1 oysters (M F, 3 6 PM , then heard raves about the clam chowder so ordered that as well plus, I can never turn down truffle fries of any kind so threw in an order of those as well (despite being so full from eating prior . Everything was delicious the oysters were on the medium to large size, super fresh and briny, the clam chowder was DELICIOUS, rich, with tons of clams. The truffle fries were also hugely portioned and really good especially to soak up the drinks consumed prior and while there. As far as drinks went, the cocktail list was really vast and Devon (going to be so mad if I 'm spelling her name wrong! was a pro at crafting them. Some of what we tried included the blood orange marg, G.T.O.T.M. (the gin and tonic of the moment , Fiddlehead IPA, sour beer, and Sauvignon Blanc. Everything was delicious, cold, and was served fast. Overall, this is a really charming, fun place to go and one that I 'll definitely return to for future Boston trips!"

"Came again when visiting the city after a couple of years and 100% impressed by everything. Original review: Very good experience overall and glad we made the trip. The server was friendly, attentive, and had great input. Cocktails were inventive and packed a welcome punch. Food varied between amazing and bursting with flavor to a bit bland. Calamari and shrimp app had a wonderful agrodolce and lemon aioli started things off right. We had 2 pasta dishes as mains, and there was a striking difference in flavor. The Ricotta Cavatelli was some of the most delicious pasta I've had in a long while. The sausage added great flavor to the dish and was a perfect pairing with the sauce. The other main dish was the Orecchiette. It was fine and everything was cooked properly, the sauce was creamy, but it was just bland overall, even with the sweet hits of cranberry. The goat cheese and sage cream just sort of made it a one note song. My wife mentioned that something as simple as salt and pepper would have made the dish a whole lot better, and she's correct. She usually is. For dessert we had the Myer Lemon Semolina Cake. Moist, full of flavor, and the mousse that accompanied it should be served in bowls by itself. Great visit overall with the low point being the Orecchiette, and even then it's not like it was terrible or inedible. I'm not entirely sure it warranted a paragraph but it was out of place with everything else. Prices were maybe a little steep for the quantity, but for the ambience and feel of the place it makes sense."

"I come to Shaw 's Tavern pretty much every week for trivia with Jeremy--which is awesome. Some of the best prizes in town and supports a local business instead of big trivia. And while the food happy hour specials end at 7PM, the drink happy hour specials run all night on trivia nights!The best deal is the happy hour pizza for $9. They are massive for that price. I prefer the white one, as the red one can get greasy, and love the option to pay $1 for cauliflower crust. Another great deal is the huge side of mac n ' cheese for only $5. It tastes pretty much exactly like boxed mac n ' cheese and isn 't anything to right home about, but is a great budget option or add-on to something else for not too much extra. In terms of drinks, the happy hour cocktails are all pretty bad (or perhaps just sweet) and I 'd recommend getting a well drink or beer instead.In terms of quality food, I love the Brussels and Kale salad (I add grilled chicken typically) or the Loaded Nachos, which come in a skillet. The nachos would be greatly improved by the use of pickled jalapenos instead of raw ones, but alas. My favorite thing is actually the peach cobber. Warm and baked with a crust, not too sweet, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The main downsides to Shaw 's Tavern are that they always seem to be out of ingredients--one week we can 't get peach cobbler, one week we can 't get cauliflower crust, one week we can 't get X, Y, Z. And the service is always mixed. Some nights the service is good, and some nights it takes twenty minutes to place an order and they forget your silverware and drink. And, oddly, it doesn 't seem to correlate to how busy the restaurant is or who our server is. I can 't figure it out! I don 't really come for the food--I come for trivia--but I do typically wait to eat there because it is better than anything I 'd make at home!"

"I went to the restaurant last Saturday at 8:40. It was a very busy night when Rutland had his Halloween parade. I was greeted by a host named Sara who told me that restaurant is very busy and they don't take more tables. I said I don't need a table and I just wanted to order the dessert. I was with my autistic son and the dessert was for him. Sara then told me that the restaurant had been sold completely out of the food and was not a dessert left. Since I asked a few questions in disbelief, a waitress named Lexi has come into the conversation, which she regrets, but they can't sit more tables. I explained again, I don't have to sit, I just wanted to order Dessert, go for my son. Lexi, saw me in the eye and said we had nothing left. No food. The restaurant was so busy that they sold from each dessert on the menu. At this point I went past the hostess and told them I would go to the bar to have a drink. I went to the very crowded bar and was greeted by a nice bartender, who gave me a dinner menu and asked if you guys eat? What? There's food? It is still possible to order? The same menu as the dining room? Why? I ordered a sandwich and 6 desserts to go! I'm not sure if the waitress just didn't want to stick with a late table or what the problem was, but I definitely don't think it's going to be blatant. I've been working in the hospitality industry for over 20 years, closing at 9 a.m. on a Saturday night is early no matter where you are geographically located, but just because a restaurant closes at 9 a.m. does not mean that a server is done or will leave at that time and it was 8:40 a.m. not 9 when I arrived. These two young ladies were insane and insensitive. It was clear that my son was moved, and a little kindness and good customer service would have gone a long way. Something as simple as let me know that the main dining room was closed, but I was welcome to order in the bar would be appreciated and much better than such an absurd line of Bullcrap. Table 24, I was very disappointed, these young ladies represented you badly and have no business in the hospitality industry. I give your bartender a 5-star rating though!"
