If you live in Boston but are from somewhere else, this is where you come to root for your hometown teams. There are dozens of televisions spread throughout the restauraunt and surrounding the oval bar area. The food is typical bar food, but a little higher quality. Drink prices are okay. If one of the local teams is playing, especially the Patriots, it gets uncomfortably crowded. You can also play Keno, if you're feeling lucky.

Everytime I come here it is never boring. Between all the tv's, the video games and whatever else is going on (i.e. karaoke or trivia) there is always lots of energy in the place! The service is good and the food and drink good too..... there is truly something for everyone on the menu! I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys a casual, upbeat scene with plenty going on. Pros: Quality, value, service, parking, atmosphere........ Cons: Sometimes very busy for big games..... Recommend getting there early for any big sporting event!

Came in on Saturday night for the first time after I heard I could go there to watch the Cotto v. Gomez boxing match. I was amazed at the amount of tv's. There had to be well over 50 of them throughout the restaurant, with every sport imaginable. I wasn't very interested in the Angels baseball game, but interesting they had it none the less. I had a warm welcome at the front door upon entrance, and the service was good. Not fine dining service but what you would expect from a Sports Bar. The vibrant young lady was very attentative despite the restaurant slowing down after the BC Hockey game. The menu was a tad overwhelming, with so many choices, but I had already eaten hours ago, so I opted for something to munch on with my buddy while we had a couple drinks. We got the loaded nachos which were great because they layered the cheese between the chips so you don't end up with plain tortilla chips after eating off the top. BRILLIANT!!!! Finally, a cook who knows what he is doing. The crowd was very mixed, but it is obviously the place to be if you are in any way a sports fan. I will be back for the next fight, this time with an empty stomach so be ready!!! Pros: Parking lot

If you want to see pretty much any sporting event and/or game that you can think of, this place is the spot. Dude, they even had a rowing race on the last time I was there. If the game you want isn't on the main sound you can always get your own speaker box to have at your table. Everyone in the place is rowdy and raucous and really get into the games. Being loud is not only accepted but a key part of the atmosphere. The best seat in the house is either at the bar where cute bartenders serve you or on an elevated platform right in the middle of the restaurant where there are TVs surrounding you. Food is great and Ive never seen so many good looking waitresses/bartenders in one place - great service!!! Definately check it out! Pros: Tons of tvs, any sporting event, good staff Cons: Little pricy

Worst experience that anyone could ever have. The manager is busy conducting business outside of restaraunt and keeping the fire door open while on his cell phone. Several people watching the game asked that the firedoor be closed. The so-called manager of this facility walks back in and starts shouting at patrons. Never to return, but allowing this underclassed citizen to hold a customer facing position is not deserved. many people emabarrassed by the bad behavior of superiority and consending mannerism of this person. Pros: lots of TV's Cons: Unprofessional, combative, shouting clown in Management position

This place is a sports bar, that is about all that is guaranteed. The service is terrible! Absolutely terrible service and I have been there several times. I don't expect 4 star service at a sports bar, but the bar staff is so consistently rude it is a distraction from watching the game. Food and drink is average.

So, you go into your local bar after seeing a drink special on their street-side electronic billboard. $2.50 drafts! If you know the Sports Depot, it's been a long time since there have been cheap beers served for local folks. This particular special was for Miller High Life. First beer comes and goes. $1 tip. Not bad, I think - 40% tip. Call me an old schooler. But I still tip my bartenders 20% if they do a good job. Maybe a tad less if the drink served is an over priced -tini. Anyways, Miller High Life-tini #2 comes along. With tax, the drink comes to $2.65 or something like that. I tip the bartender 60 cents. Not a grand tip, no kidding. But over 20% - for a cheap drink. No one said the bartender detailed my car and got my kid his shirley temple with an extra cherry. He just poured a beer. High Life. Cheap. Drink special. Brought it over. I put the 60 cent tip down, figuring it added to the dollar tip from before. He takes it. He remarks: "Thanks - thanks for nothing." Thanks for nothing. Hmmm. I turn to the bartender and ask him what he just said (since the old waiter in me knows I reached the 20% + mark on my tip). He replies, "Nothing sir - thank you - no problem, sir, thank you." So here I am, a customer in a bar - pulled in by a good promotion - being chastised by a bartender with no sense of decorum or math. Thank you Sports Depot, my neighborhood Local. $5 or so tab for two High Lifes. (Where's the guy from the commercial?) Over 30% in tips to the fat bartender who walked 3 feet to the tap handle, only to chastise my less than generous tip. Where's the reasonableness? Where's the etiquette? I don't like leaving change for a tip - but, c'mon, this is the High Life and this is the bar's special and this is a $2.50 draft ... and the tip was over 30%. (Did he expect that I should make up for his management's drink special with a 2 dollar tip on a still-overpriced domestic beer?) Is this the high life? Pros: Many TVs - all sports - in the neighborhood Cons: Rude service, over priced food and drink (in general)

The Depot is an awesome place to watch any game. The food is great, (potato skins are the best starter cheeseburgers are wonderful.) Thursday night trivia is fantastic with the Red Sox, Celtics, or BC playing in the background. The service is as good as any other busy sports bar in a college town. to be honest, its actually a step up. SoxGirl33 might of been mad because Jason Variteck struck out with the Bases loaded and her BF was hitting on one of the pretty and smart Boston College waitresses (get over yourself soxgirl33) I live on the North Shore and I come down with friends to hang out there. Food and drinks are very reasonable. Check it out!!
