Boston's Baseball Tavern: A Fenway Find

We were recently in Boston for several days and, of course, checked out a number of Rewards Network possibilities. Since we had tickets to a Red Sox game, we couldn’t help but notice The Baseball Tavern in our search results!

Quite simply, this is a perfect place to head before or after a game—or anytime. Situated just a block from historic Fenway Park, The Baseball Tavern is much more than just a bar. The first thing most folks notice once they’ve grabbed a cold beverage from the bustling first floor bar is the sheer size of the place. It seems to have a capacity almost as big as bandbox-sized Fenway.

There’s the first floor with lots of seating and standing space (and lots of TVs), plus a similarly large space on the second floor. The third floor is also a big draw and it’s easy to see why at the top of the steps. Similar to some spots around Chicago’s Wrigley Field, The Baseball Tavern’s roof deck features great views (and sounds) of Fenway, stadium-like lighting, and it’s own bar (with food service).

Along with a wide variety of cold beverages (including many beers on draft), there’s a tasty menu at The Baseball Tavern. Snacks and apps include a ubiquitous (and quite tasty) New England Clam Chowder and hearty Beef & Three Bean Chili—which were both perfect on the rainy day we were there. There many other shareable starters, as well as salads.

Tavern Burgers are big and come with lots of topping options. There are lots of other sandwich options (I loved the Tavern Twin Hot Dogs Basket), as well as quite good versions New England standards like fish and chips, fried seafood, and clam and scallop rolls. We didn’t try the “Tavern Specialty” of Mike’s Terriyaki [their spelling] Steak Tips, but they looked great.

Fenway Park will also celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2012 and you can’t bet we’ll be raising our glasses to Fenway at The Ballpark Tavern.

I can't believe the baseball season is almost over! But, I'm happy the Baseball Tavern is open year-round! Next year is Fenway's 100th anniversary.

The Baseball Tavern is a great way to enjoy pre-game festivities at Fenway! Love this picture of my hubby and his buddy Roger helping him celebrate his 50th! Great memories!
