Had high expectations but was very disappointed.... beginning with the arrogant hostess. Food was pricey and the menu was trying to appear overly sophisticated. The waiter was efficient and attentive though. Would not recommend or return to this restaurant..
Pros: Service was mercifully fast
Cons: Snotty hostess/average food/high price

I've been to Clink now 5 times for dinner with large parties. I'm going back again this weekend with a large party. For me, consistency is key...and Clink has been amazingly consistent. Drinks cold and good...dinner perfect and the service has been great...from the fresh faced cutie at the Hostess Desk to the Server...good all around. The only thing that is not my cup of tea is the location of the Ladies Room...(which is a football field away) and the fact that between Alibi (the downstairs bar) and The Liberty Hotel Lobby...there seems to be a bit of a 'meat head' scene later in the evening...and it's not attractive. Otherwise Clink itself...great spot!
Pros: consistent service
Cons: ladies room is near Pluto

Horrendous isnt even the word to describe the food! The atomsphere is the only thing keeping this place going. The waiter was an android with NO personality and could barely speak to us. The main course was bland, over priced and small. A complete waste of money!
Pros: history of the building, the atmosphere and bar in the lobby
Cons: THE FOOD, THE WAITSTAFF

Ok...I went in expecting the worst. Brunch in a hotel (buffet)...clear sign of expecting bad food. However, I was completely surprised by my experience there. If you are hungry, would like an upscale brunch, and have $35 (tip not included)...you can plow through a great deal of food.
They have a menu you can order of off (all included in the buffet price). Made to order. The steak and egg was excellent. Duck confit hash..very good. Prawns...excellent. You can order as many items off the menu as you want. (Very cost effective). Don't be confused, the menu items are included in the buffet price.
Besides the menu, you can also visit the buffet line. Pastries, salmon & bagels, pancakes, waffles, fruit, desserts, etc.
Now don't get me wrong. As a high end brunch, I'm sure you can find better. But, if you can account for price and taste, it will be hard to find to any better. You will leave stuffed.
Pros: Brunch!

The ambiance is great but the service and food are substandard. We were seated at 7:00 and our main course did not arrive until 8:40. (The restaurant was not full!) Two members of our group were served lukewarm meat. The portions were ridiculously small. This was the second that I dined at Clink and both times were a disappointment, if not a disaster. Never again.
Pros: Atmosphere
Cons: Food quality, portion size

Horrible food, horrible service, and a horribly high priced!
Had friends in town, so I wanted to show them Boston's new trendy hotspot. First we sat there for almost 30 mins before being served anything. It was as if, the servers had something better to do than bring out ordered drinks. To top it all of, the food was probably the worst I've had in Boston.
Very expensive, unattentive, just plain bad.
Pros: The bar in the lobby had a great vibe
Cons: Bad food, at $17 for a martini is ridiculous

I am a 20 year veteran of the boston bar scene and found Liberty to be right in line with the current, short lived hip place to be. The bar crowd there is good. If you are looking for a place to meet professionals, this is a good place to go until the next place is the place to go. Some of the bartenders are good, polite and welcoming but I have had terrible experiences with some others. There are a few that need to be reminded that their job is to make everyone's stay there as enjoyable as can be. Instead I saw too many instances of, 'this is my bar and you will take what i give you if you are lucky.' Unfortunately, bartender entitlement is far too common in boston which keeps me going back to my usual places where they treat me with the respect a paying customer deserves.

This bar is absolutley awesome and has a little something for everyone. It's in the lobby of the Liberty Hotel. It's a converted prison and the designers did not leave one stone unturned in this renovation. One part of it is very open and spacious with a laid back lounge feel and delicious (and expensive) drinks. Downstairs is a lot more cramped and feels a bit more like you're inside an actual cell. It's also much much louder downstairs and more like a seedy bar. We tried a pizza too which was delicious.

The bar atmosphere in the lobby of the Liberty Hotel was warm and inviting. The service was great although the South African Meritage tasted chalky. Once inside Clink, things deteriorated pretty quickly. The atmosphere was very nice. The service was not. I can't rate the food because after waiting 45 minutes to be seated, we waited an hour and fifteen minutes before walking out...never to see our entrees. The waiter was more interested in the two teenie boppers at the next table than getting a tip that night. It's amazing that they spent all that money on renovations with no thought to service.
Pros: Atmosphere was great
Cons: Service was not.

I went to the Liberty Hotel on a Friday night to go to Clink for drinks. Upon arrival there was a line at the door to get in; there are two lines at the door which are not labeled. One line is for Alibi and the other for Clink, so make sure you know what you are standing in line for. After about a 45 min wait we were able to get our 8 person party upstairs to Clink. There was plenty of room in the lobby which makes me think the line was just for show. We were able to get a sofa with a couple tables which had a server. Cocktails were around 14 dollars, the atmosphere was great. A good place to chat with friends as it was never too loud. Seemed like a good date spot as well as a place to find cougars.
Pros: great ambience, not too loud
Cons: line system
