Was Jackie Barnes at Model Cafe a mag?
This place has been open over 90 years and I’d be so sad if I could not dance here again one day, so I’m glad they started serving food to stay open and it was so much better than we expected! The pizza was crispy with a hearty tomato sauce. The wings were so juicy and fall-off-the-bone tender. Perfect with a cold ganssett, they hit the nail on the head for pub food I used to eat in Buffalo. View all feedback.
What User dislikes about Model Cafe:
The people who work here are awful. My 3 FEMALE friends got kicked out for bringing in an outside drink; instead of just telling them to throw out the drink or be asked to leave, the bartender/bouncer (balding, old) was extremely rude to them and told them to get out. After he pushed them outside, he was laughing about it with the other bouncers and making rude and sexist jokes. If you are a woman, DO NOT COME HERE!!... View all feedback.
The usual crowd there is really friendly to everyone and the $3 soft pretzel is awesome
Overpriced $8 for a vodka Smirnoff shot. ? Bartender was okay. I asked for a lemon drop and I was expecting a shot and got a drink with triple sec instead. My husband’s IPA was warm and he wasn’t a fan. ?? Chill place , nothing crazy. Music was a lot of 90s rap that I didn’t mind. I think we decided to spend less than $20 and left. We would have spent more, but we weren’t feeling the vibe and I didn’t think the bartender was trying. He WASN’T mean at all like other comments say OR RACIST (like some suggest in the comment- I’m a Latina with a Caucasian spouse) but he wasn’t personable either. I think that’s just his personality.
I have a great time at my favorite restaurant, although I often find myself drinking a bit too much.
Best dive in Boston! The staff really makes this place great, they’re good people. Love you guys!
