Decent food but Sneaky Business

by afrdrx at Citysearch

After 5 years in Boston, Big City has become a fairly regular destination...the food's decent, there's a lot of pool tables, and the beer selection's pretty good. Here's the problem...they steal your money and hope you don't find out. On multiple consecutive occasions, I checked my bank statement the day after dining there, to find an extra, SEPARATE charge, in addition to the legitimate bill that I paid. So far, they have charged me more money than I care to specify in extra BOGUS transactions. I'm not sure if they expect their patrons to be so drunk by the time they leave, that they won't remember what they spent, or if they are trying to cash in on the fact that a lot of college students who don't pay attention to managing their money yet tend to go there...if I want someone to rob me, I'll leave my wallet somewhere, no need to go to Big City for that.

• Pros: Fairly quick and decent food
• Cons: They rob you and hope you don't notice

Mmm Beer

Very impressive beer selection, both on tap and bottles. Easy location. Accomodating service. You don't have to be a pool cat to have a good time here, there are plenty of spots to just have a seat and hang out with your crew/date. The food is a little pricey for what it is, but worth checking out for the drinks.

I need to stop getting this but i really like it, i want to try some other ones. The food is better than you would ever expect.Lots of pool tables and fooseball interesting historic decor is cool and its a fun place to go. Not always alot of places to sit can be a problem and hit or miss service. Best place to play pool around .

• Pros: ch.burg pizza!, cool pool, good hang out
• Cons: nd more food tables, upstairs
