Been here for drinks quite a bit and always enjoyed it but!! Yall!! I got the sliders this last time. Let me tell you they've ruined sliders and maybe burgers in general for me forever. Tho I've never really liked full size burgers so always been a slider fan. Damn. Let me repeat, damn. Again, damn. Super simple but so so juicy and whatever sauce they are saucing on it? My mouth waters at the memory. They are decent sized and you get 4, plus a massive tower of also very good onion rings. The onion rings were good no complaints but after the sliders nothing was going to compare so I kind of forgot any opinions I had on them. Inside is cozy, staff are fun and great, reasonable prices and good vibes anytime I've gone in. And I'll be going in again soon bc damn. A few days later I was out with friends somewhere else and we got sliders and I was so disappointed now that I've known 21st's. read more

Food is always good. Particularly like al fresco dining during the warmer weather. Service is always excellent, indoors or outdoors.

Stumbled on this little place for lunch after visiting the State House and Athenaeum past lunch time the wife and I were hungry and thirsty! Place was not super busy and our server Izzy was on it...she seated us immediately and took our drink and food orders. We snacked on spinach dip which was pretty filling and ordered some cups of clam chowda! The chef put some southwestern flavor which I thought was fabulous, since we are from TX! We finished by ordering the plate of sliders and by far, the best pub sliders I have ever had! Everything we ate was amazing. Izzy was energetic and never let our glasses go empty! The building was historic and it felt like you walked back in time! We would go back in heart beat for sure! read more

On our spooky girls trip to Boston/Salem, we stopped at the 21st Amendment to have a beer. I loved that the place was full of locals and that they were so welcoming. Thank You! The 5 girls Miami/Ft. Lauderdale will be back! read more

Was looking for an old pub and 21st delivered with that. We ordered food and wasn't sure what we would be getting. We all thought some typical deep fried bar food. Not the case. Everything was good. Salads, Buffalo chicken wrap, sweet potato fries. Service was slow but think it was due to shortage on staff. read more

Waiting for our tour and needed to get out of the heat. Grabbed a few pints and some apps. Not a great selection of drafts - settled for a PBR. Food is freezer to fryer. Service is mediocre - the sweet gals behind the bar spent more time gossiping with each other than serving customers. It does have a lot of history, which I appreciate. read more

We were advised by Yelp! reviews to stop for a good burger. Well, sorry to say, this was one of the very few times that we were disappointed. Service was horrible. We sat outside. Our waitress was very extremely slow and inattentive. There was 2 tables including us sitting outside and it took more than 10-15 minutes between interactions which included 4 different times she came out. We arrived at 6, it took over and hour and half to get 1 drinks a piece, burgers and the check. We will not be back! read more

This is a historical place. Come in and feel like you are in a dark lit speakeasy from the Victorian era circa 1899. JFK wrote his speeches here when he ran for congress. Our bartender Nick ran next door to find a special bourbon for us. Love this place! You must come visit! read more

Poor service. Said no to every request :( fyi they don't know what a mule was, didn't have pickle back shots and no shots after 12.

My fish & chips was delicious and so was the pint of Guinness! We didn't see any ghosts, but I'm sure one lives there just by looking g at the dark wood ceilings and some authentic decor. I would've given them a 5 star, but when we told our waitress we all wanted separate checks because it was a business trip she said she could only bring one check per table. Well, we gave her 4 credit cards and asked her to charge our individual items... which made her have to give us separate checks anyway! read more

When it comes to bars, they're usually either hit or miss for me, especially this close to downtown. Not too sure where 21st Amendment lands for me, but still had an enjoyable experience. The vibes here are good, and it was even more appealing to me that they had pretty good food in combination with their drinks. My partner and I started things off with a plate of nachos and each ordered an entree (a burger and fish and chips to be exact). What we were not expecting was the sheer quantity of food they would leave us with. The portions were insanely large for two people - absolutely not complaining, we were shocked! I wasn't blown away at all by the food quality itself though.. the nachos were especially mediocre, with very bland chicken and not very evenly distributed toppings. The burger and fish and chips were good but nothing super notable. Although we did visit on a Friday night, the service was extremely slow. We weren't in a rush so we didn't mind, but I wouldn't stop here if you're looking for a quick bite. Still, definitely a good bar with some good food, just don't expect to be blown away. read more

My friends and I really enjoyed this place! They both got the burger and I got the filet mignon tips. All sides were perfectly seasoned and the addition of the onion rings was amazing.They were some of the best we have had. My steak and their burger were both nice but not mind blowing. Wasn't sure what to expect when we came here but the low lighting created an intimate setting and we had great service so would recommend! read more

Okay, I low-key loved this place. It's not fancy. It's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall. But it has history and tasty food and brews! The cider here was phenomenal. Seriously, even if you don't like cider, you should try it. Husband had a few beers here too and really enjoyed them. The people seemed very friendly too. But - the star was the short rib grilled cheese. Just take a lactaid and do it. It's well worth the calories. BONUS: Be sure to see the fireplace that JFK liked to sit by when he worked on his speeches. Super close to the capitol building and Boston Common. read more

A very cool bar we stopped in while walking around the Freedom Trail. The staff was extremely nice and the drinks were had were great. There is a spot in the restaurant area that JFK would sit and write his speeches. Apparently he lived next door when he was senator. I would recommend giving them a try! read more

Found this gem of a place on Yelp! definitely a locals spot, we were greeted by our waitress who got our order for us within a timely manner . They weren't terribly busy the night we went and they stayed open until 2am. The kitchen closes at 10 maybe 11 I wanna say but don't quote me on that. We got a Caesar salad to share and a pizza to take home! Well priced loved and I love the old time brick feel read more

A true local spot to come with friends, coworkers, or anyone for a drink! 21st amendment is located in probably one of my favorite intersections in Boston with all of the bars and restaurants nearby as well as it's proximity to other parts of town. The food, it was you expected bar-style food, nothing spectacular, albeit I definitely want to the try the much rated Nachos during my next visit. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is very lively. If you're looking for cocktails and something a bit more upscale, then look somewhere else. But if you want to stop by for a drink or a beer and hang out by the bar with some friends, this is a great spot! read more

Awesome bar! Right next to the Mass State House, loaded with history and character. Open doors and windows created a nice open air vibe. Cozy pub with wooden beams, antique lighting, and vintage art. Men in suits sitting and drinking, college kids, date nights. Bartender was great, asked for a lime-gin cocktail and he created a great shaken cocktail! read more

Inarguably the greatest bar in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The bar food is exceptional, the drinks are always perfect, and the staff could not be better. If you're going for the first time, make sure to get the sliders. read more

Trivia Night was fun, the food was alright, the drinks were worse, and the service was slow. A pretty generic dive bar overall. The wait staff is kind unless you don't tip them enough (in which case, they will come to your table and tell you that the wait staff depend on the tips to survive--which, to be fair, is totally valid; just don't be so rude about it). read more

Strong drinks extremely slow service. We went for drinks only just to experience the place. I ended up going inside and ordering my drink at the bar. Funny thing, the bartenders were playing on their phones so the slow fullness wasn't warranted but I digress. If I have time to waste I'd go grab a drink but definitely wouldn't go out of my way to return Meh read more

An enjoyable dive bar near Boston Common with good (not great) drinks and charm to spare. A guest and I stopped in to wind down our Friday and took a seat at a booth. The seating is definitely old: these wooden chairs and benches might be left over from the Revolution. My Maker's Mark old fashioned came out way bitter - totally out of balance- but the house special Harvest Moon, resplendent with tequila, chai spices, and autumn flavors, more than made up for it. Our newbie waitress bragged about making the drinks herself, while simultaneously waiting tables, which I don't think I've ever heard of before. I'd come here again to amp up a night in progress. read more

Bartender was extremely rude during last call. He told us to GTFO after leaving an20% tip on the tab.

Hole in the wall, legit Boston bar. Best food I've had in Boston the whole trip. Service was good, fast, friendly, personable. Found a decent beer on the list and order a margarita pizza and the Asian Chicken salad. Came in a timely manner, pizza hot, thin but had a nice balance between a crispy crust, but still a little bready and flavorful. Toppings were perfect, cheese was good, thin strips of fresh basil, pretty perfect in my book. Salad, amazing! Chicken was perfect and flavorful, bed of lettuce and salad stuff was a perfect proportion, and the dressing wasn't overdone but was flavorful -- all the components of the salad worked. We sat outside and watched the duck boat tours go by as we enjoyed this wonderful food. Thanks for a great experience! read more

Great place in the city for drinks and bar food. Nik and I shared the loaded nachos with buffalo chicken app and it was delicious! 21st Amendment did not skimp on the toppings. The nachos were massive and definitely shareable. Nik and I only had this between the two of us any we didn't finish. Chips were piled high with buffalo chicken, cheese, jalapenos, sour cream and green onions. The chips were thin and crispy while also being warm and covered in perfectly melted cheese. I've never had buffalo chicken with my nachos, but it went so well. Everyone should serve buffalo chicken on nachos! You can have a chip with all the toppings in every bite. SO good! read more

Totally fun night at the 21st amendment. The drinks were ice cold and my black and tan was fabulous. We were there for trivia night & totally enjoyed the atmosphere and the loaded nachos! We should have ordered two! The short rib, grilled cheese was a massive hit and I really regret sharing with the rest of the table! read more

I was having a tough day so decided to try out a new place for an after-work brew and something to eat. That's when I stumbled upon the 21st amendment.

I hope that anyone who goes to this establishment gets Sophia as their server so they can have just as great of an experience as I had! read more
