1. Convenient Sports Bar near North Station
   Spacious sports bar with good food and atmosphere. Very convenient to North Station and the Boston Garden. You can never go wrong with the traditional appetizers - nachos, wings, etc. Good beer selection too.

2. Rude Rude Rude
   I've always liked this bar. A TV at every possible location, good beer, decent bar food. But my last experience was so atrocious that I couldn't help but think something's wrong with management. We were a party of six with two yet to arrive. Even though the restaurant was practically empty, the host would only seat four. When our friends arrived, we were forced the move, the waiter literally sigh...

3. Four's Restaurant Boston
   This is what you call a real tradition Boston restaurant.The polite and friendly service. The baked beans and big juicy steaks. The adorable atmosphere or Boston, right there inside of the restaurant. Yes I would recommend them.

4. Best Service, Best Chicken Wings, Hot Guys
   This is an excellent bar to watch any sporting event. They have huge flat screen tvs. THE best chicken wings and nachos. The crowd is good. Everybody is pretty loud and into the game so it makes it alot more fun. Alot of hot guys.

5. Good food, good service, big flat screen TV's everywhere
   Previous reviewer mentioned a lack of large screen TV's - well have no fear, because The Fours now has 42" flat screens everywhere, and a large (10 foot?) projection screen in a corner of the dining room. I was watching Monday Night Football to the left of me and a Red Sox game to the right, while our friendly waitress kept the beer glass full. Food was better than average for a sports bar.

6. The Doug Fluttie
   Great sports bar and I strongly recommend trying the "Doug Fluttie" if you like buffalo chicken, also the nachos are a great choice for an appetizer!

7. One of the better sports bars in the city.
   "One of the better sports bars in the city. It can be dead, depending on if there's an event down the street at the Garden."

8. Best Bar in Boston
   Every time I visit Boston I make it a point to visit the Fours. The atmosphere is terrific and the food is excellent. The location is top notch..just a block from the Garden. When in town stay in the North End...go to a game...go to Quincy Markets....go to the Fours!!!! (All in walking distance)

9. Rude waitress, the Manager was worse
   We went over to see the soccer world cup final at the fours. The waitress was incredibly rude and my wife and I felt totally uncomfortable sitting there. At one stage when we asked for the menu she decided she would prove a point and yelled out to the manager across the bar. As we left, we spoke to the manager about her and he was even ruder, starting with- "Why was she rude? Did you order water ...

10. great place
    Have been going to Fours since the 70's: called Number 4's then, far from yuppie, 1/4 its current size, notty pine paneling, one small bar with wooden stools named after each of the Bruins, sat with Cashman, Espo, Cheevers, Orr, etc. and actually had conversations with them. Some of the same people still work there. Kitchen was a grille at the window streetside, steak and cheese just as good no...

11. Downhill
    Noticed that they don't offer anything but meat sandwiches. Not 1 fish offering...not even tuna. No Veggie burgers, in 2005. Guess they figure every sports fan lives on dead cow. Got a caesar salad, had very little dressing, which didn't even seem like caesar. Had to ask for bread twice from someone other than our 'waitress' who was busy elsewhere, and we were in a bit of a hurry. They'...

12. Disagree w/ Sports Illustrated
    I most definitely would NOT vote this the #1 Sports Bar in America. The food was very good and the atmosphere was nice w/ the dark wood & all the memorabilia but they need to work on their TVs...all of them were small and there weren't that many. The restaurant was good but go somewhere else if it is the sports bar atmosphere you really want. It was not crowded and we went on a Friday night wh...

13. a little dissapointing
    this place was rated number 1 sports bar in the country by sports illustrated. while it was a really good place, it was NOT the best in the country. they tv's were small and hard to see. the food was great. the bartenders were great. the memorabilia on the walls was great. but come on, how can it be the best with so few tv's with sports on?

14. Best Sports Bar ?
    This bar was voted number 1 sports bar in the country. Far from! What makes a good sports bar is the size of the bar(s) and the T.V.s. This bar has not one plasma. All the televisions are small. They have a small bar located upstairs and an average size one downstairs. Only thing worth seeing is the sports memorabilia hanging on the walls.

15. mmm
    I'm known amongst my friends as a nacho connoisseur. I love nachos and I get them everywhere I go, so believe me when I tell you that the Fours has the BEST nachos in Boston with their buffalo chicken nachos. They're simply amazing. It's the only thing I get when I go there, but I hear the steak tips are delicious, too.

16. You feel at home here!
    Been coming here for 15 years. It never disappoints. Food, service, the decor(i.e. the great sports stuff all around you!!). I bring my Dad (he's 82!) when we're in for a game; he loves the place!Even when it's a "quiet" in town, always good for a meal. If you have guests in town, they'll love it. The Four's is IT!

17. Great place to see a game.
    I've been here about 5 times now and I've had a great time everytime. I saw the Celtics make their 21 point comeback here and it was a blast. Things got crazy after the game was over and people came streaming out of the Fleetcenter. The food has always been top notch (great buffalo chicken sandwhich and wings).

18. Try the stk and chs sandwich!
    I NEVER would have guessed.... You go to The Fours for drinks with friends... You go to The Fours for BEER.... You go to The Fours to watch sports... BUT.... You should definitely go to The Fours to EAT! Especially try either their steaktips - wow! - or their steak and cheese sandwich! (your call on adding the 'shrooms, peppers or onions...) GREAT steak, on soft bread, with wond...
