  4. ewwww
    This place is soooo dirty and sooo disgusting. It can't even compare to the rest of the bars in Fanuiel Hall. The waitstaff is always new because people always quit. The downstairs was flooded and the same day they had a party there. So unsanitary. I am sure they could never pass any health inspections.

  5. boooo
    They gave my bill to someone else to sign, so when I retrieved my card they said it had no charges on it, but the next day I had a hefty charge on my card that someone else had signed for. They gave this other person their credit card back and gave them my bill to sign. Not that guys fault though, it's McSadden's screw up. Also, a friend was looking for a lost article of clothing, and the bo...

  6. Comfy port in a storm!
    Just stopped in for a drink in the middle of a snowstorm, great comfortable atmosphere, attentive service at the bar.

  7. Bouncers play favorites to their own friends....
    Here I am born and raised on the East Coast, however live in SF. I went there a few weeks back to meet up with some friends. One of my friends happens to be a good looking female. I arrived with one other friend and we order around for the girls and ourselves. It turns out that one of my friends was getting played on by a fellow she just did not care to be bothered with. I said some none threaten...

  9. I would say "just okay"
    I had never heard of this bar until this past weekend when I met some of my friends in town after work for drinks. My first thought when I entered was that the bar looked just like a frat house. There was not a ton of room to stand so people were constantly bumping into me and my friends. The beers were about $4, which is lower than average so that was a plus. Also, there are a couple of people w...

  10. Advertised Halloween Costume Contest Didn't Happen
    I was at the McFadden's Halloween Party last night (Tuesday 31st) hoping to win the advertised $1000 costume contest prize. There were some good costumes there which people had spent a lot of time making, it was very busy and I had a lot of fun. I was Optimus Prime. However, I left disappointed at 1am because no one could tell me what was happening concerning the contest. Today, I heard from o...

  11. Crowded, Trendy, Long Lines, Cover Charge,
    I'm not to fond of Downtown anyways. McFadden's is too popular. Takes forever to get a drink upstairs. Downstairs is hot and smells like dudes. Not a cheap night on the town. However, if your looking to get some this is the place. Guys: Amazingly hot girls. Girls: you are severly out numbered

  12. What a crappy bar
    Place wasn't crowded when i arrived around 9 and it took 25 min to get a drink and i was sitting at the bar. Halfway into the night, the men's bathroom upstairs was flooded and no one fixed it. Plus the one toilet was broken and covered with a trash bag. Way to run an awful place management. The crowd was the only place that partially saved the night.

  13. What a place!!!!!!!!!
    This place is great! Went there with a bunch of friends and they all loved it. The drinks were strong and reasonably priced. It gets crowded so get there early if you want a good spot. And the woman, oh the woman-very good talent. Definetaly recommend this place.

  14. The worst place
    I went to McFaddens with a group of my girlfriends and we had an aweful experience. We waited about 45 minutes in the rain to get in...and when we got in the place was not even at capacity. They held the line outside to make the place look like it was a popular place to be. Inside the drinks were expensive and the service was horrible. The DJ was the worst of all. He didn't like us because w...

  15. Don't waste your time.
    On my first trip to Boston, I met with friends at McFaddens. Not only were the drinks overpriced and the wait staff completely inattentive, the DJ was awful. Along with the terrible music he played, he called out two guys that we were with just because they happened to be fans of an opposing hockey team. He got the whole bar to crowd our table and flip them off. We had to leave after that; it...

  16. AWFUL
    This place is awful! The service is slow, the drinks are over priced, and the dj's suck. Don't go here unless you want to pay to get verbally abused. I recently went here and the DJ was a complete jerk. He told everyone that they could walk by our table and flip us off because he basically didn't like the same hockey team. Childish, I think so. So if you walk by and see a line for the door, just ...

  17. Great Place - I love it!
    I have never seen so many good looking people in one place ever! They play great music, you can be upstairs and a part of the huge party or go downstairs and relax in the Blue Room and talk and drink with friends. The bartenders are awesome, and contrary to other reviews the management has always been really nice and accomodating. I definitely recommend it.

  18. Better than the last place...
    This location has gone through so many changes...Finally a better crowd, better music but still poor management. I have to say, this is definitely a good place for a single gal to go. There are alot of young professionals and eye-candies. Bartenders are very energetic and friendly. Plenty of room to dance downstairs....but no AC!

  20. User review by sc14
    Our experience (and you can be rest assured it will be our ONLY experience @ McFaddens) was horrendous. Service was AWFUL and the manager with the attitude/power trip needs to go if McFaddens wants to be more than just the 'new' spot to try out. There are a wealth of other bars that we'd rather have fun at.

  21. Needs a lesson in customer service
    Horrendous service. The bouncers managing the line let everyone in who "knows someone" with absolutely no regard to the people who are actually waiting in line. They are rude and arrogant. Management is poor and they do not care about their customers. Inside is fairly well decorated but there's nothing special about this scene to justify the snottiness. Crowd is suburban and not upscale. No...
