We were visiting Boston for our anniversary and we searched to see if we could watch the Packers game that Sunday and we found that Banshee was hosting a Packers party. We bought our own food and drink, but the place was jam-packed with Packers fans! We lucked out with a seat at the bar downstairs. Big party upstairs too with some free food, but we were happy with our seats. Great time!

Needed a place to watch the "soccer"; not any old match but the dreaded, and much anticipated, Manchester derby. A number of websites mentioned the Banshee but it came with mixed reviews so I wasn't really sure what to expect. All I wanted was a City win and not be outnumbered by reds. We arrived at 9.30 am and ordered corned beef hash with home fries and eggs "over easy". Food was great. The waitress brought us coffee (no alcohol in Massachusetts before 11am). Mrs TT 's cup was refilled an impressive 7 times before we started on the Guinness at 11.01. Great food, great atmosphere (blues significantly outnumbering reds) and great service. Local MCFC fans were great. It was only City's mediocre performance, and the subsequent 0-0 result, that failed to meet my expectations!

So I called inquiring about a game a week before, a gentleman answered the phone. So i asked will you be showing the the so and so game. He replied back yes, second question seeing as how hot it has been, will there be an AC, next answer yes and than we asked will there be a cover charge. He responded with no there's no cover charge, they only charge for the All Ireland. So were thinking great we'll go there. We get there on the sunday and take a guess what happened, charging $20 at the stairs, we said we were told there was no cover, by this we got a laugh for a response, than told every knows there is a cover charge (talking to us as if we were stupid, what aggravated me even more) by now we just want to watch the game so we pay the money and go upstairs, where we are the only 2 people sitting there !! They charged us $40 after we were informed there was no cover, and were the only two sitting there. also no one on the bar upstairs, 15 minutes into the game we got up, asked for our money our money back and left. We will not be returning to this establishment. Maybe just maybe inform all your wait staff and bar tenders that there is a cover charge in future.
