The Druid

A classic local Irish pub with an array of comfort foods and great drafts.

Came here on a Friday during an off-peak hour and found the place quite bustling with locals and tourists. The word among the locals was that Druid pours one of the best draft Guinness beers in the city. While it wasn’t comparable to the ones I’ve tried in Dublin, it was still velvety smooth.

Food-wise, Druid championed hearty and generous portions. The lightly-seasoned fried calamari especially stood out with its sheer size of the portion – undoubtedly a steal for its price. However, my favorite of the meal was the Oxtail Soup. It was a seasonal gem that’s only served in the colder months, and it was replete with two huge oxtail bones and savory broth that beautifully harmonized with the slight tang from the spinach.

The Shepherd’s Pie and Druid Fish & Chips leaned more towards the traditional side without much flair, but they were still good choices with the beer.

For anyone seeking an authentic Irish pub experience, complete with classic dishes, great beer, and a spirited environment, Druid is an undeniable gem. Highly recommend giving them a try.

We had lunch there with family friends. Surprising good quality and authentic iris food. Price value is great. Worth recommending or bring friends.

The vibes? Immaculate. The service? Amazing. The food? INCREDIBLE! We got the beef stew and the shepards put and they were both INCREDIBLE!!!! The beef stew broth was so flavorful and well spiced and the beef was tender and juicy. The shepards pie truly had no business being as good as it was. They use lamb CHUNKS which was amazing!!! I also got a glass of smithwicks which was also delicious. HIGHLY recommend!

The Druid is a wonderful, small pub in a great walkable area. It is near MIT, Harvard, Hult and many of the other local universities. The staff are from Ireland and very friendly, they had great live music, and the portion sizes were very large. It has ample seats, but fills up quickly due to the small size. I went to Ireland in January and it was definitely reminiscent of the pubs there. I would highly recommend this pub.

I had oxtail soup… I can say I LOVE IT !!!
Today was a cold and rainy day and this soup was delicious, warm and tasty! Perfect for a quick warm up of my body and hands.
I totally recommend this seasonal dish
