The Scene – In a city full of Irish bars, this downtown option aims to have the authenticity angle down pat. Constructed in Ireland, the bar was transported here brick by brick, with all of its warm-toned, comfy pub atmosphere intact. Because of its location--smack dab in the middle of the unattractive concrete jungle that is Government Center--the bar does its best business on weekdays during lunch and after work. Service is affable and efficient. – – The Draw – Despite the view of bleak City Hall Plaza, tables in the large outdoor patio are in demand whenever the…

Not Good Service, Food

by GABoston at Citysearch

I went to Kinsale two times for lunch and both times I had bad experiences. I sat at 1 PM for lunch and didn't get a salmon salad until 1:45 PM. Then another day I wanted to order from the bar to go - the woman was rude and dismissive. Also, the host was busy engaging in gossip to notice that I was sitting at the bar for 10 minutes before getting attended to - oh, did I mention this was not even peak time? I decided to never go to Kinsale again!

  • Cons: Bad Service, Rude

Classic example of a upscale bar!

by ADRcamr at Citysearch

I've gone to this place a roughly 6 times during the past 12 months and have found their food and service to be exceptional. The place offers a variety of beers that you can't get elsewhere and they constantly change their selection. If someone doesn't like the prices of their menu then they can go someplace else, but the food as always been good and clean. I recomend this place if you want to have a good beer that and a comfortable atmoshphere. The bartenders are very nice and are always approachable and fun to talk with. Def recommend this place if you like irish bars with a twist. Also the seating style in the bar is almost parallel to pubs in ireland that i have been to.

  • Pros: beer selection and food quality
  • Cons: there aren't any really...who doesn't like good beer?
