I've been a Matt Murphy fan since it opened and have found the food, whether casual or more complicated always good and sometimes surprisingly so. It's convenient and offers a fi...

Great Irish pub with terrific food and life 9/3/2005

Matt Murphy's is simply a great pub and a great place to eat lunch or dinner. The differences are that Matt Murphy's was begun by a restauranteur, not a bartender, and it has always maintained a casual, almost country flavor which is friendly and authentic. Unlike most Irish bars around Boston, Matt Murphy's has real pub food, not the hamburgers or upscaled sandwiches you now find. The bread is thick cut. The food is rustic and unpretentious. And yes, they take the full time to pour a true stout, letting it settle rather than rush it. It seems like an easy recipe, making an Irish bar that feels real. But only a few get it right and Matt Murphy's is one. You never feel processed here. BTW, the place is small. It is in a small restaurant row in Brookline Village. more

Matt Murphy's Bar 7/20/2005

A hidden gem in Brookline Village, Matt Murphy's provides great drinks and great music in a great atmosphere. Reggae music on Tuesday nights and live Jazz on Thursdays are my personal favorites, but entertainment can be found here almost any night of the week. No cover charge and no miniumum drink requirement, this locale offers an escape from the crowded, commercial bars of downtown Boston in a casual and creative atmosphere. more
