I have gotten take out a few times after last night I will never go back! Druid packages take out soup in cardboard and other higher priced DINNER meals in cheap aluminum with cheap plastic tops. The whole meal or soup is in the bottom the black liquor store bag Druid uses by the time it get home. My dinner... More

An excellent choice for getting your Irish fix...more of a bar than a restaurant, but with a smattering of tables and the food is excellent. Good for families, friends, with excellent live Irish music some nights within walking distance of Harvard Square and the university. More

It was recommended by a couple locals so we checked it out it was pretty good. Kind of small but thats the type of atmosphere i enjoy. Just a bit pricey. Our server was pretty good and the food was very good. More

The food was delicious and and priced right. The fish chowder was tremendous and the veggie burger was second to none. My family stopped in on a Wednesday afternoon and we were treated to a delightful dining experience in a great Irish pub in Inman Square. More

The bartenders were excellent (and Irish), the fish sandwich I had was very tasty as were the fries that came with it. They have Guinness on draft (of course) but also (among others) Leffe, Harpoon IPA and Otter Creek IPA. It's not too loud, they only have 1-2 TVs and the overall ambiance is excellent. The kitchen is open until... More

Today was considered a holiday and might be the reason we were able to get a seat quickly during lunch. But I feel lucky because we were served right away by a charming Irish waiter who was attentive and cheerful. We ordered beer and red wine with the Druid burger. The burger was juicy and the fries crispy. More

This is not your average Irish pub, the food was amazing. Fish sandwich was lightly battered and fries were some of the best. The real winner was the fish chowder ( cod, smoked salmon and little neck clams) , the best ever!!! More

Visited Druid with another couple and a plus one to sample their beer, their live music and have a bite. I wrote an email to the Druid on-line email address prior, to find out whether our group of 50'ish folks were gonna feel completely out of it at this venue or not. Got a very nice quick email back giving... More

Good food in a pub atmosphere. The burgers looked great; lamb kebobs were excellent. If you are looking for a true 'english' style fish and chips - not so much. The place was bustling and we felt like we had stumbled upon 'the' neighborhood spot. We lucked out got the coveted spot right in the window. It was lots of... More
