Reviews for Durty Nelly's in Boston, MA
Great bar. Stoped by at perfect time. Not fancy but got the job done! Thanks, hope to see you again.
Best hole in the wall there is in Boston. If you’re able to write a paragraph on a Google review, you have ill motives. If you... want the bartenders to be nice, don’t be rude. Great people and atmosphere. Read more
I went to Durty Nelly’s with some coworkers to experience an authentic Boston dive bar. The only thing authentic about the... place was how incredibly rude the staff was. My coworker was denied entry because she couldn’t find her ID. She’s 39!!! Weeven showed them her birthday on Facebook and they didn’t care. I will forever take my business elsewhere. Nothing is worsethan being shown that level of disrespect. Forever and always anyone who asks… “f.d.n’s” Read more
My sister and I went to this bar upon recommendation. If I could give it a 0/5 I would. I am a server and my sister is a... bartender. So we know about the service industry. Here, there was a shortage of everything, but mostly respect. We got to thebar, ordered and received our drinks. At the moment in which we decided to go to the restroom, there were no other women in thebar so we saw best that we accompany each other. While we were in the restroom, a group of boys arrived at the bar. Once wereturned to our seats the bartender told us that we couldn’t go into the restroom together (understandable for men, not somuch for women). But we apologized and assured the bartender that we just wouldn’t use the restroom again. Then, one of theboys at the bar threw ice at my sister. The bartender did nothing, let him stay. Another patron was the one to say something tothe guy that threw the ice. Again, the bartender saw everything. My sister and I decided to leave. It is NOT okay to treat womenor ANYONE like this. When I called the establishment my call was answered by the same bartender who claimed he had already“spoken” to these boys, and immediately hung up on me - and didn’t answer the other times I called to discuss this issue.I can’t believe that people still act like this and I truly can’t fathom the fact that nothing was addressed in that moment.This entire experience was absolutely disappointing and disgusting.

This small little bar is a great place to get a Guinness and a good story from a local. The staff was quick and friendly.
Simple, casual, and straight forward. I love a good old tavern with no bells and whistles, just good music, good drinks, good... laughs. Will be back Read more
We were looking for a comfortable place to have a few drinks (running away from the touristy crowded spots on the other side of... the block) and this place looked welcoming. Came in and was mildly shocked and pleased at how small this place was. Bartenderwasn't anything special, but we got our drinks, and he was pleasant. Is wasn't loud or quiet, it was perfect. One of theregulars was wearing a shirt I thought was cool, so we ended up having a great conversation about the origins of the ethnicitiesin Boston and what his favorite places were. Incredibly great dude. Will come here again. Read more
Horrible service! Read previous reviews. Not uncommon pattern. A great Boston dive bar?? Doesn’t mean you get to bad service... with a $$ price. Keep walking! Trust the reviews. Read more
