Cheers--Faneuil Hall

While visiting from California, we went to Cheers because my girlfriend wanted to see both locations. We ate at the Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall location and the food was just awful. The burger I got was the worst I can remember having in a long time. She got potato skins that were bland and had about 3 bits of bacon on them and a salad that should have been called a soup because it had so much dressing in it. Even the Coke was flat! Pros: Atmosphere, Location, Friendly Service Cons: High Price and Awful food more

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. more

I live in Allston and was visiting a friend who just moved to boston. My boyfriend and I wanted to take him somewhere touristy and he went on some tour which gave him 15% of a meal at Cheers so we decided to go there. First of all, it seemed like everyone but our waitress came by to tell us that she would be there soon to take our order. It was a wednesday night, and only 4 other tables were full. Another waitress was actually nice enough to get us drinks. When our waistress finally did come, she promptly demanded rudely ""what do you want to eat?"". Then when I asked her if she could tell me if the clams were whole belly or just strips, she stared at me blankly and said ""No, I don't know"" without consulting the cook or anyone else. So I ordered the swordfish. She came by only to give us our meal and to see if we were going to order more beer to fatten up our check. We were so hungry by that time we just wolfed everything down but you can be sure we will not ever be coming here ever again. The food was mediocre at best, which was worsened by the fact that our waitress was a complete idiot. Pros: outdoor dining Cons: service, service, service more

What a tourist trap! I did not enjoy Cheers at all. The service was acceptable, but not exceptional. The food was mediocre at best (and my party tried about 5 items). The prices are ridiculous for simple burger & sandwiches. If I spend $10 on a burger, it better be darn good. Unfortunately, most fast food burgers I've had are much better. Do yourself a favor and try something else. Pros: Acceptable Service, Excellent Location Cons: Expensive Food, Mediocre Food more

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 more

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. more

Make sure you have a valid MA drivers license before coming here...After coming here several times w/o any problems, the guy at the door tonight told my girlfriend (who's 26 and has a MA state ID, but no DL) that they could NOT accept her state ID, that a valid MA drivers license is the only valid ID they accept. We found this to be preposterous b/c since she turned 21 in 1997, my girlfriend has never had any problems getting into any bar/club in Boston w/ her state ID. This was only exacerbated by the fact that we have been here several other times for drinks where they've accepted her state ID. Needless to say, we will NEVER go back here again and will tell everyone we know to stay away from Cheers. Cons: MA licenses ONLY!!! more
