What Mike likes about Tommy Doyles Irish Pub & Restaurant:
Good local Newton bar and restaurant. Not going to lie it’s weird drinking lots of beers in between families but I guess it’s ok. Many different beers on tap and good food here. Service was good and the staff was friendly. For the Newton/Boston area, the food and drinks are priced pretty well. Will be back again for sure. View all feedback. What Ansley Terry doesn't like about Tommy Doyles Irish Pub & Restaurant:
Really great place pre pandemic best service, good food, my son was practically raised there. Sadly, all the great waitstaff left after the first COVID surges. The current staff is less charming, and they turned away our dog citing a Newton ordinance against dogs on their patio. We went across the street to Moldova to have a drink. View all feedback.

Tommy Doyle's restaurant in Newton has had its ups and downs, with some diners praising its pre-pandemic charm and great service, while others have been disappointed by the lackluster food and service post-COVID. The restaurant's attempt to mimic an Irish pub ambiance is noted, but the cuisine falls short. Despite some negative reviews, many appreciate the local feel of the bar and restaurant, with good food, friendly staff, and a variety of beers on tap. It seems Tommy Doyle's may have its inconsistencies, but it remains a solid option for food and drinks in the Newton/Boston area.
