Not what it used to be!
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

Although the new Cask looks nice, it is missing what it once had. I have been coming to this place for years and years but will not be returning anytime soon. You used to be able to get great service and good food, but I guess they didn't have room in the budget to keep those things. What was once a great staff that I looked forward to seeing is now just so so. The food used to be great and quick, now you have to wait 45 minutes for buffalo wings that are served colder than the beer is. Also, the atmosphere just ain't what it used to be. It seems like they are trying to cater to the upscale guest and forgot about what made the place great. If you are looking for a more casual atmosphere with great drinks and service I recommend heading down to Copperfields. It's the only place in the area that has yet to sell out and I hope that they don't anytime soon. For good food, head to Boston Beerworks or Game On(which the "new" Cask tried to copy, but failed miserably). Go Sox!!!

Pros: Looks nice

Cons: Poor service, poor food quality
