Not really feeling The Fours or any other sports bar type place. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I will be taking the train in but anything within a reasonable cab ride is an option. Thanks in advance. Fri Nov 09 06:36:17 -0800 2007 20320 ltownhound 1 3109799 Arriving at North Station? Fri Nov 09 06:55:29 -0800 2007 3109736 16490 Bostonbob3 2 3110270 Yes. Fri Nov 09 09:04:59 -0800 2007 3109799 20320 ltownhound 3 3110811 I'd go with Hiddenboston's suggestion then. The Waterfront Cafe is really close (just up Causeway/Commercial, and has way-better-than average pub grub. Definitely superior to The Fours and the pizza is quite good. Even their pastas are surprisingly tasty. (Skip the calamari though.) Plus the plethora of flat screens for Celtics gazing and proximity to North Station... Obviously, there are better options if you ditch the game-watching aspect (Neptune, Terramia, Mamma Maria, etc.), but for the combo, Waterfront seems to hit the nail on the head. Of course, you could always eat at a North End restaurant first, then join my gang at Pete's Pub (sorry, sorry, "Durty Nellie's") to watch the game.

If you are arriving at North Station, hoow about heading over to the Waterfront Cafe on Commercial Street? You can walk there from North Station, and the food is really good (excellent pizza). If you're coming into South Station, maybe watch it at Lucky's Lounge on Congress Street? It's a funky place with good drinks and decent food, including good burgers.

The food was quite good and they have two flat screens--presumably they'd put the Celts on. Fri Nov 09 11:24:58 -0800 2007 3109813 96096 BillieJean
