Welcome to Cheers!

by gatorspirit at Citysearch

Cheers in Quincy Market is a nice place to eat. It's not the best place if you're looking for a fancy, formal meal, but its wonderful for a casual lunch or dinner with good food and a relaxed atmosphere. There are also several tv's to watch when sporting events are going on.

• Pros: Good food in a friendly atmosphere.
• Cons: A little pricey and service can sometimes be slow.

For tourists, an essential stop; for locals, another Quincy Market tourist trap.

The Scene
Since opening in 2001, this shrine to the beloved NBC program "Cheers" has been drawing tourists away from the original Beacon Hill location; with its replica bar and museum, there's more to see here. Thanks to reasonable prices and expansive seating, this is one of the more comfortable dining-drinking options in the Quincy Market area. Friendly servers are pleased to snap a photo for the folks back home.

The Food
Standard American fare dominates the lengthy menu, with a slight bent toward local favorites (baked scrod, baked beans). While there are steaks and salads available, most patrons smartly opt for simpler fare like the hearty Turkey Gobbler sandwich (roasted turkey with walnut stuffing and cranberry sauce) or the gargantuan Norm burger (a pound of beef topped with Muenster cheese, mushrooms and onion rings). Those diners with room left over should opt for an inviting slice of--surprise--Boston Cream pie.

Good for those who love the TV show

by edithdoll at Citysearch

I went recently with a visiting friend, and it was very nice. She was thrilled because of the TV show, (later we went up to the hill to see the original Bull & Finch). It looks like the same menu for both venues. A little corny with all the character names from the TV show, but generally decent pub/bar food and a little pricey for what it is, except it's Quincy Market so that's to be expected. Service was okay, my friend asked for our server to reheat her food and the request was done quickly enough. The replica of the tv set downstairs is cute, well done, and worth a visit for out of towners.

• Pros: Nice TV set replica, Nice patio area, Good menu variety
• Cons: Tourists, Pricey for what it is

better than Beacon Hill

by amandaharrison at Citysearch

I was expecting the same touristy crap as the Beacon Hill place, but I was pleasantly surprised to find a alot of locals at this location. this is a great after work place and the food is pretty good. try the clam chowder, maybe some buffalo wings. Everything on the menu is good. And remember your ID. They don't fool around.
