Came in on a Saturday around 3:15 and were told there was no wait, so we sat at the bar. Big mistake. Apparently, the servers are also the bartenders, and it was pure chaos behind the bar -- people making drinks, running food, clearing dirty dishes -- all in one cramped space. It was stressful just watching it. Most of the staff looked frustrated/annoyed, and I don't blame them. Maybe hire a couple of actual bartenders?
Our waitress, Shirley, was super sweet and doing her best, but the setup just didn't work. We ended up sitting there for about two hours and it felt like nobody really had time to focus on the bar guests.
The food didn't help. My burger, the burger bomb was okay but missing the peppers -- which are literally the first ingredient listed . The real disaster was the $19 mac & cheese with pulled pork for my daughter. It was disgusting -- soupy, watery, and completely inedible. Looked nothing like the picture on their website, more like goulash than mac & cheese. They did take it off the bill, which honestly tells me they knew it wasn't right.
We actually left another spot to come here, and I wish we hadn't. Between the chaotic vibe and disappointing food, this Boston Burger Bar location just isn't it.
