This was the best pre-game experience, right on the doorstep of TD Garden. Food was excellent, service too and the TV experience was insane. Can’t rate it highly enough, I’d recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

Did a good job with some fast food in a busy environment prior to a Bruins game. One pizza was very late to come to one in the party so the manager came out and apologized and took it off the bill. It was done without any prompting from us or complaints. Good business! The pizza is good solid bar pizza with a beer.

Pre-Celtics game brunch with entire family (wife, adult children, and 3 year old grandson). Great experience. Our table was ready at our reserved time. Staff was friendly and accommodating. And food was excellent (as usual). Band was an added bonus. I go to WEJ before all games but this was the first time with the entire family. I made the right choice.
