The Sports Depot has all the necessary pieces to make the best sports bar in Boston; they have the location, the TV's, the parking, the menu, the beverage selection, etc. However, they are majorly lacking in one of the most important aspects, the service! I have lived in the area for a few years now and every single time I have gone in there, it never fails. I am served by a miserable, frumpy waitress who is clearly unhappy to be at work. Having worked in the service industry myself for several years, I always leave giving them the benefit of the doubt saying that Im sure the service will be better next time. However, after my last visit to the Sports Depot I will never go back. I overheard a group of waitress talking bad about customers seated near by, and it left me with a very sour feeling. Not only are they slow, unpleasant, unfriendly, unaccomodating and whiney, they are completely rude!! In conclusion, if management at the Sports Depot ever reads this, GET SERVERS WHO WANT TO BE THERE! It makes a difference. This place could be a freaking gold mine if you step up the service and quality of your waitstaff!
Pros: Lots of TV's, cheap menu with a large selection
Cons: Miserable waitstaff, bad service
