Weekend Hotspot

This place is great on weekends especially Friday's after work sitting out on the patio dining can't beat it. Very cruisy right in the heart of Lakewood.

High prices, paying for eatting in the scene

Prices are very high and do not match the qualety and size of the food served. The qualety is under par. The environment is great as it is a sports bar with all sorts of events and TV's. You can also get a window seat to boy watch guys walking by. The scene is what draws people not the food.

You have just gotta go!

We stopped by during a Pub Crawl. We never left. The food was outstanding, the service was great, the people were fun. The Patio is wonderful!

A+ Boystown Bar food, Wonderful summer patio!!

Some of my friends have said the same thing "It actually used to be good when they first opened.' I don't believe this to be true. The quality of the food may have been a little better at the opening but the problems with staff, preparations, and wait time were just unbearable for this kind of establishment at the start. Cute, friendly staff :P Never had a problem here. I could care less about the "sports bar" appeal, but its nice to have something "different" in Boystown. The video jukebox is a fun addition as well. BEST Grilled Buffalo Chicken Wrap in the WORLD here!!! A++
