We went to TGB to watch the B's game and it was the best atmosphere I have been in to watch the game besides being inside the garden. The TV's where incredible how you saw every play and even ice flying. The food was great the drinks were cheap the crowd was amazing. It didn't end after the game. The crowd piled in the place and it was the best after party I have been to in a long time every floor had it's on great concept and different crowd it was awesome. I have been there on non games nights and I have to say this place is one of the tops in the city with everything going on all the time......Great Job
- Pros: Best Place to watch a game,cheap drinks, good dj's
- Cons: parking on game days
Love it

This place is soo fun! I always go my bday, friends bdays and weekends occassionally. There are 4 floors so there is something for everyone and different music on 3 of the 4 floors! It is really fun and its always busy! Theres usually a long line on weekend so get there early and you'll miss the cover as well. Great location because its right across from the garden and its always the place to go after games, concerts, etc. I will always love this place and have great memories here!
- Pros: 4 floors
- Cons: long line sometimes.. But get there early and miss cover!
We try our best!! Its a great night :)

Hey everyone,
well I can alot of disappointed people on here which is unfortunate.
The only night that there is a cover is on Saturdays. Its a very big night, fun night, and as we can see a successful night.
We apologize for the amount of time some of you have had to spend waiting in line. We try our best to accomodate everyone as fast we can.
There is a very strict capacity limit set so we cannot go over that.
To save some time and money I suggest people go to bostonviplist and reserve a place on the guestlist. You will not wait in line as long and you will recieve reduced admission which is only 5 dollars per person.
Saturday nights are a huge night as mentioned and capacity is reached very early normally by 1030, so the only suggestion I can make is get there early, sign up on the guestlist, and please have a little patience, because I am more then confident when you finally get in, it will be worth the wait...
The music format for Saturday Nights is Hip Hop/Top 40/Old Skool/80s and from the past few weeks everyone seems to really enjoy the selection of music played.
AS mentioned in other reviews you can hear top 40 at alot of other places, but DJs @ The Greatest can mix and know what they are doing, so its a much better experience then alot of other places you may visit.
So please don't let these bad reviews determine if you come check out The Greatest Bar or not.
Please just get your names on the list, try to get out early, and please have patience...like I said, once you are in you will have a great time :)
- Pros: Cheap Drinks, good music, crowd there to have a great time!!
