  1. The last time I was in Sonny McLean’s I was so disappointed. The owners sold to an Aussie who loves Boston – but I just don’t think “gets it.” The menu was totally changed, the server thought haddock was a beer, and whole belly Ipswich clams aren’t even on the menu as an entrée any more (you can ask).
    ALL the memorabilia was gone – even the podium where the World Series trophy once sat, that I use to touch like an altar when I would come in.
    I’ve never been back. Sonny McLean’s once upon a time was probably the best all things Boston sports bar outside of eastern Mass – now it’s a sham.

  2. You’ve left out a bar in Seattle that is packed with Patriots fans (50 to 100) for every game. It’s called Spitfire (2219 4th Ave., Seattle, WA 98121. The Boston Sports Fan Group of Seattle meets there for all Patriots games as well as for other Boston sports. We take over the whole back room there. It’s not a “Boston bar” per se, but they have bent over backwards to welcome Patriots fans since 2007. Please include it on your list.
    Also if anyone in the Seattle area who would like to connect with the big Boston fan group there, we can be found on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/groups/bostonsportsfangroupofseattle/
