Scored an outdoor spot before seeing my Beloved Red Sox play. Pretty crowded. Chicken and waffles were incredible! The bbq sauce was out of this world. Strawberry moonshine drink was delicious. Steak sliders were tiny but yummy. The catfish sliders were disappointing. Mostly bread w a couple pieces of battered and fries fish. Very bland and boring. Great place to socialize before the game read more

Great atmosphere that reminded me of home (I am from Nashville and visited Boston for the weekend). This place was a great spot for drinks before the red sox game. Fenway is right across the street! The food was a little bland, but highly recommend stopping in before a game. read more

Do not pay cover until 9:59pm. They are horrible at DJing any music and it takes forever for any live acts to come on. Go to Nashville. There's a reason this bar is in Boston... read more

Cole was an excellent server! He was friendly and the food was great!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love eating here

It's common knowledge that Loretta's Last Call has frequently received reports of women's beverages being drugged. This issue has gotten to the point where they provide cup lids to patrons (they charge $1 per lid) and are making a profit rather than inacting a zero tolerance policy. -7 stars. read more

Come for the fried chicken and baconnaise sandwich (the bacon is grinded up into the sauce so you don't even see it. I sub the rice for a dollar extra for fries and those fries are AMAZING. Service was fine, she checked on us every so often. Suprisingly the fried green tomatoes was pretty good but a small portion for what is charged. I think we probably had 1 tomato for $9. The sauce is slathered on top so if you are vegetarian, ask for it on the side. The other time my friend came he said they had put it on the side so pretty inconsistent. Our poor vegetarian friend had to eat around the sauce. There was a band that was going to play a little after 7 and there was a tent card that said they were giving out some free apps when that happens so that's cool..Sad all my drinks lacked alcohol unless you got some sort of cocktail with whisky but I'm not a big fan of whisky. Strong drinks: COUNTRY MULE PEPPER JELLY MARGARITA SHOO FLY PUNCH Not strong but yummy drinks: HIBISCUS KISS LORETTA'S AZAELA read more

The food at Loretta's was AWEFUL! The atmosphere was aweful. It was basically a loud bar with a few tables for which we had to make reservations. My friend's ordered the brisket sandwich, mac n cheese & collard greens. I ordered shrimp & grits. The mac n cheese tasted like watered-down Kraft out of the box (the powdered cheese kind). The briskit and collard greens were under-seasoned. The grits were barely luke warm and the texture was off. Drinks were watered down. The only things good here were the appetizers: biscuits with sausage gravy & Serrano and corn hush puppies. read more

This was my first time here and not what i expected at all from the outside. Once you walk in the vibe is very chill, casual, the lighting is just right, noise level was not too loud and you feel relaxed walking in. Keep in mind that this review is based on before the band started playing. So will get loud once band starts. They have a nice set up for the band area/stage so no matter what you sat you'll be able to watch them. We got the platter for 4 along with side of Mac and cheese and collard greens and that was more than enough food. We got to try a little bit of everything. The Ericas buttermilk chicken was a little bland in flavor but still good. The Loretta's chicken was very moist and flavorful. The hot chicken bites were crispy, little kick off spicy and tender (and boneless). read more

Loretta's Last Call - Plate for 4 - Southern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Manager will kick anyone out if they are in the presence of a can that isn't sold there even it if wasn't yours.

I really wanted to love this place. I was waiting in line for a concert and went to get something to eat. I ordered the chicken and waffles, which came out looking great. The chicken was really tough and chewy, and the BBQ maple syrup tastes sour. The bartender was very nice, and poured strong drinks. I might go back for drinks in the future (they have a great whiskey selection) but the food can be skipped read more

Loretta's is amazing. I appreciate the help from the staff - especially Brandon

Loretta's is a breath of southern charm in Fenway. It has a homey, country feel with dark wood floors, an American flag and kitschy southern decorations. The spot specializes in live music, southern bites, and moonshine cocktails. The bar is known for great dancing on the weekend. All the cocktails here are delicious! I've never had any that I didn't like. My favorites are the Pepper Jelly Margarita and the Moonshine Cherry Blush. They also have a great selection of beers that you can't normally find in Boston. While Loretta's is more recognized for its late night scene then the food, you'll still have a good meal here. My favorite bites are the hushpuppies, grilled cheese bites and the pickles. read more

Cole was an amazing server! Loretta's is nothing without Cole! Such a beautiful place to dine

I came here last night for drinks before the Red Sox game. The bartender taking care of us gave my debt card to another party. So I was charged for another party's tab and my debt card was lost. When informing me of this, the bartender got upset at me for asking questions about why my debt card was "missing." He then turned around and said I was "pissing him off." I walked up to the GM who was very kind, apologetic and took down my information. It was not his fault and he handled the situation like it should have been handled. I still have no debt card and it is a great inconvenience on my life. read more

Read this as a 3.5 review. On my ongoing search for Hot Chicken (quite some time), I decided to come here. Loretta's is kinda out of the way compared to most of the other spots that I venture to but since Southern food is rare, I had to. The sweet tea wasn't too sweet and had just the right amount of sugar. The hot chicken also came with a decent amount of coleslaw, pickles, and white bread to soak up the spice. The hot chicken honestly wasn't that spicy and in certain bites, actually tasted sweet. Besides that, the chicken itself was actually juicy and breaded pretty well. Service was pretty hands off though the waitress did drop by every so often to ask how everything was and whether I needed anything else. Overall, decent though it's not worth it unless you already happen to be in the area. IG: Mood4foodeatery read more

Loretta's Last Call - Sweet Tea - Southern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Ended up coming to this bar last night and left very annoyed. There was a nice live band and a fairly clean bathroom. But, at the end of the night (around 11 pm) my friend and I went to get a second drink from the bar (if you are at the bar facing the dance floor, we were on the far right side) and while waiting to order, there were two guys beside us who had ordered drinks. They paid and got the check, when the bartender came to grab the check as they went to leave, she saw the tip they left and called them back to HARASS them. She started verbally attacking them for leaving a tip that was under 20%, everyone nearby stood there in awe gawking as this rude bartender was yelling at the two men. My friend and I ended up leaving because we didn't want to support an establishment with a bartender who harasses the customers. read more

Great food and drinks! Highly reccomend the moonshine Bloody Mary. Our server Bridget was the best!!!

I placed a pick-up order for a fried chicken sandwich, but they gave me a single chicken tender(?) messily tossed with slaw underneath. Seems like the restaurant was reserved for an event so the doors were all blocked off when I got there, so I wish it was clearer at the time of ordering whether they were taking orders at all. read more

I had the most fun and memorable time at Loretta's for my birthday dinner the other night. Our waiters were so kind and hilarious!!! Cohle and Bianca. Icons!! They made our night!! read more

Would've given this place a higher score (maybe.) If my experience was not tarnished instantly from being the only person in my group being asked to wait till the next group. Considering the fact that I was already let in but held back because I was slightly different (I was the only non-white) -- didn't feel great and given that I waited on the line over 15+ minutes to be let in, not at all the experience I have ever felt (and to wait again?...). The benefits from this place, if at all, would be the people that I met and the local artists who performed -- in all honesty, could've gone to another place and still hear the same "local artists". Would have easily given it 4/5 IF and only IF my initial encounter was not instantly segregated from my friends. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the ambiance and all of that but because my encounter with the staff went SO wrong, I personally will never recommend this place. read more

We were in town visiting Boston from the west coast. We ended up at Loretta's for brunch. It was fabulous! A great atmosphere and equally great food! The chicken and waffles...scrumptious! And the cornbread...delectable. This was matched by the friendly staff. We were helped by Bridget...she was attentive and helpful, especially when helping us decide what to choose! I highly recommend this cute spot! read more

We went here before the Red Sox Yankee game. We came to you guys and put our name on the list. We were inside way before our time which was good. We enjoyed the country music that was being played inside. The country vibe was great. Loved the wall with all the past and present artist on it. We were a group of 4 people. We ordered drinks which were good. I had the Watermelon Crawl which was tasty. Another person had the watermelon Margarita they liked it but not a fan of the habanero tequila. Our other friends had vodka and soda. Considering how busy it was the kitchen did a great job getting the food out. Everything came out hot and prepared perfectly. I had the Loretta Burger which is hands down one of the best burgers I have had. The caramelized onions are what definitely makes this burger. 2 people had the Chicken sandwich which they loved. Another had the Mac and cheese which was also delicious. So if your looking for a place to go before the game or without a game check it out. read more

It was better than I expected! And I didn't even want to go there, but the boss said he's paying.. Southern fried chicken in Boston? Yup. Add real cornbread and coleslaw, fresh brewed sweet tea for a great meal. For the people that drink and really want a southern experience go with moonshine and a chaser of Shiner beer. Dang if that ain't good! read more

So we tried the sausage cheese balls. They where fabulous. I ordered the jack Daniels lemonade and my friends ordered the watermelon crawl and hibiscus Kiss. The watermelon crawl was the bomb For dinner we all tried some sort of fried chicken. I had the chicken and waffles. They where all fabulous. My husband said the Hot chicken was not very hot but great flavor. Fun times here!! read more

So the food was delicious and the drinks were delicious. Bridget was great, very attentive and checked back often. We just felt a bit off about the fact that two POC were left seated near us for over ten minutes without anyone attending to them. They were looking around and since we were brought waters shortly after being seated, without even ordering them, this should have told people no one had spoken to them. My husband who is half-Vietnamese had said something to me and we said something to our waitress who did immediately go see them. Not sure it was even supposed to be her table. It made us uncomfortable but please be aware people do notice those things while out. read more

Four of us went for dinner on a cold night. We had used OpenTable for reservations, our table was ready when we arrived. Two of us got chicken and waffles, which were amazing. I highly recommend trying these. They do offer a vegetarian and gluten free menu, be sure to ask for it, it's not included on the main menu. The vegetarian in our group was happy with the veggie burger and said he would definitely eat it again. We also tried cheesecake, which was also really good. The staff was very nice and attentive. The atmosphere is relaxed and wasn't very quiet, although it was nearly half full and a live band was setting up. read more

This is a great spot to go for a large group gathering and if you a: like bar food, b, like casual dining and c, like country music. This was a perfect spot to host a party. Shawn, the day Manager was very helpful and ensured our food allergies were cover d. If you are celiac or vegetarian (there were a few in our group), they have options. I didn't give them full stars because their pitchers of Sangria were meh - tasted like rosé wine on ice. And their gluten-free beer is Glutenberg which is awful beer. Otherwise we had fun and enjoyed the evening. read more

Loretta's Last Call - Fun country vibe - Southern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Food lacked flavor-not sure how Mac and cheese ends up with out tasting like cheese. Bartender seemed bored, cornbread was dry and the fried chicken-both Nashville hot and fried-was very fatty. Pickled veggies tasted raw and had vinegar dumped on them. We enjoyed our Buffalo wings. Aside from the convenience to the MGM for our concert, skip this spot. read more

Cohle was outstanding. He was so friendly with us and we had a great time! So happy he could take care of our huge group of 12. Great job and great food! read more

Absolutely loved this place! Great drinks and even better live country music! At around 10 they took all the tables and chairs away and it was an open floor for the rest of the night. For food we had the chicken and waffles, which was better than your typical bar food. Next time I think I would ask for the BBQ sauce on the side because it drenched the waffle and made it a bit soggy. Besides some creepy old men lounging around, Loretta's was great! read more

Came here to hear Shady Armadillo (amazing band!), but am adding a review for the great service provided by Colleen. The fried chicken with cornbread was fantastic! read more

Loretta's is a refreshing change of pace if you're looking for something different in the way of nightlife in the Fenway area. Specializing in live music, Southern eats, and mason-jar-esque cocktails, Loretta's has a homey, country feel to it and does a solid job with its food offerings. I was here last week for a group gathering, and we got to enjoy the chicken tenders, hush puppies, and pimento & bacon grilled cheese. All were tasty, but I'm especially glad I ordered up their chicken & waffles entree, because that really hit the spot! The maple syrup had a bit of a BBQ sauce kick to it, and the whole meal was deep fried Southern decadence at its finest. The best part about Loretta's was definitely the service though - the staff continually checked in our group throughout the evening and made sure things were going smoothly, which was much appreciated. Thanks, Loretta's! read more

Loretta's Last Call - Chicken 'n waffles - Southern Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Came here on a whim when i was trying to get out of the rain. I did not regret it. My boyfriend and I each ordered a cocktail, the Wildberry Shineade and the Bushwacker. We liked them both, but the Bushwacker was by far our favorite. We ordered the fried pickle appetizer, which was great. The pickles were thickly sliced and crispy. I ordered the Fried Chicken and Waffles. It was DELICIOUS. (Definitely not diet food, but DELICIOUS.) It had a bit too much butter on top, but it could easily be removed. The had a good bbq sauce flavor that made this chicken and waffle special. My boyfriend ordered the burger, which he was happy with. The atmosphere was also enjoyable. The day we went, there was a line-dancing event, which was fun to watch. read more

Great atmosphere, great servers / bartenders and management. The food and drinks were amazing. I will be visiting again

This place is awesome!!!!! Servers are so nice and so fun. It's a really good time. The country vibe is a great place to be around specially in a cold city like Boston. The food was classic and delicious and it was only made better by the wonderful suggestions by our server. I think his name was Landon! Thank you for having such an amazing place!!! Will def be back xoxo read more

The manger is beyond rude and disrespectful they are mad when you don't know the line dance and don't allow you to dance..it's weird energy and just not a place you want to be the floor is disgusting full of beer I almost broke my ankle read more

Little Bit of Country in the Heart of the City! Went back to Loretta's to try the food! Glad I did.Completely different vibe in the daytime at dinnertime. You wouldn't know you were in the heart of Boston. The atmosphere and food took me to a little country town with southern hospitality. Our waitress was little rushed though she had mw tabbed out before I could order drinks. The food was good. The fried chicken was good and had a great spice to it. But after trying a few things I recommend the Burger and fries! That was by far super yummy. Got the Full Moon (moonshine) which is my favorite drink there. The atmosphere does change once the tables are removed and the younger crowd (and lines) show up. We were lucky enough to have a booth but the drunk kids don't know personal space and we're all over our table and seats. Once the tables are gone the waitress are gone and you have to go to bar to get a drink. You can barely move in there so that made things difficult. But still was a great night! Thank you Myles for the southern hospitality. read more

I am a huge fan of Loretta's. I have been here a few times for food before or after Sox's games and late at night. When it comes to the bar scene if you like country music and an energetic crowd you'll love Loretta's. The live bands are great. They have lots of creative and fun events. The cocktails are unique and fun. When it comes to food, you can almost guarantee you'll enjoy your meal. I had a friend order the gumbo and not love it and I tried it as well and it wasn't my favorite. That is the only time we've had the experience. The pulled pork grilled cheese is amazing! The chicken and waffles is another good choice. The staff is friendly. It gets very busy so sometimes you won't get your water refilled right away. They are quick to attend to your needs. read more

Didn't realize I had been here a few years back for a bar night upstairs. It's pretty dead in the area if there is no game or concert on nearby, but it was great to take advantage of on a quiet Sunday. I liked the live music, although there was a fair amount of audio issues with the mic screeching. I got a cocktail, the cornbread, and the Strawberries and Waffles. Everything was delicious! I always love cornbread with honey butter, so I had to get it despite already getting a sweet cocktail and entree. The Strawberry basil lemonade cocktail was calling to me, and it did not disappoint! The waffles had the perfect amount of sweetness to them. I did not get syrup on the side with the waffles, and I don't know if that was a mistake or not, but the strawberry syrup that was already on the waffles was more than enough with the whipped cream. I came over here because I had a Nift certificate, but I would gladly go back again. read more
