I really enjoyed Saturday afternoon beers with my girlfriends at The Purple Shamrock. We decided to stay for a beer and then watch the Patriots game. We didn't end up leaving 'til closing time. The waitresses were friendly & were always there when we needed them. Walter, the manager, was the highlight of our trip; he was the true Bostonian we were hoping to meet (great stories!). After 10pm it definatley turned into a college-age club. Not exactly my scene, but we still enjoyed it.
Definately recommend out-of-towners to visit The Purple Shamrock.
Pros: Good location and attentive staff
Cons: The scene changes after 10pm-- club scene.
