About The Fours

  • Space for Parties
  • Steps from the Boston Garden
  • A Boston Tradition

We've been serving Boston's athletes and fans since 1976, providing excellent food and service. Come by for our famous buffalo wings, Shrimp Diane, Boston baked beans or broiled scrod. Have a bite of our "Bobby Orr," the steak and cheese sandwich named for our hockey legend. Chase it all down with a beer and watch the game on more than 40 HD TVs. Or come by after the game--we're right across the street from the Boston Garden.

We have tons of sports memorabilia on our walls, including signed photographs, equipment and jerseys. Of course, no Boston sports bar would be compelte without signed Tom Brady, Larry Bird, Robert Parish and Doug Flutie gear. Come by and catch up with friends at The Fours.  View Less

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 sighed, actually asked our friend if all he's getting is a dessert, and stomped off like a school child. Our bill came with gratuity already tacked on at 20%. I'm never going there again.

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.

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.

One of the North Station area's most popular sports bars offers satisfying bar food and plenty of plasma TVs.. The Scene
The ye-olde-English-pub facade looks like it was assembled from a mail-order kit, but the bar inside is fine. Sports-lovers who covet memorabilia will appreciate Fours' decor: Photos of the late and great, along with jerseys and game shirts, cover the walls. Old-school pennants, signed baseballs, boxing gloves, ice skates and more have also worked their way into the scheme.

The Draw
Just a block from the Garden, it's a convenient place to grab food and drinks before the game. On tap: Budweiser, Bass, Harpoon, Guinness, Miller Lite and Sam Adams. For a sports bar, Fours' grub is above average. The shrimp Rafael appetizer is five jumbo shrimp lightly breaded and fried. Among the sandwiches, the Bobby Riggs turkey club and the Bobby Orr steak and cheese are standouts. (Yes, all sandwiches are named for sports legends.)
