Two Saints Tavern — Restaurant in Boston

Writing this review after an interaction last night. My friend and I showed up anticipating a great time and wanting to meet friends who were already inside. Bouncer looked at my ID AND SCANNED IT, handed it back to me with no explanation and told me to step aside. Mind you… I am 23 and the people around us were well underage. I asked why I was denied and he said my ID “did not look like me” and proceeded to let in underage students with fakes. My ID photo was taken on my 21st.. Apologies if I look different. He asked me if I had a credit card which I did not bring with me and only had my debit and that was not good enough for him. Returned a few minutes later and asked if I was denied because of my ID or if it was because the event was sold out. He continued to give me different answers switching between the two… But he proceeded to let people in after us who didn’t have tickets even though it was “sold out”…. Then I asked if I could just run in quickly to use the restroom and he said no. Explicitly came to this establishment anticipating a good time and instead was denied for no good reason and was stranded in the area without our friends. Expected more during one of the busiest times...

Writing this review after an interaction. My friend and I showed up anticipating a great time and wanting to meet friends who were already inside.

Apologies if I look different. He asked me if I had a credit card, showed it to him and two other cards and proceeded to step me aside. That has happened after I already bought the ticket and they scanned it. Kept on lying to my face saying that my id didn’t scan correctly. After arguing with them for 5 minutes straight and showing them my work id and five of my cards, they scanned my id again and surprisingly it passes when Im on the side where I can see what it actually says.

I've been here a few times and this is by far the most unwelcoming bar I've been to in Boston.

The staff is rude and unfriendly, especially the female barkeep who has an outright hostile attitude and is a rare example of an unapologetic racist here in Mass. Not only is she inattentive to customers and unaware of most of their inventory, she often gets into arguments with customers and has them thrown out when they ask to see the manager. I've seen it happen multiple times in my few visits there.

Outside of the people, the drinks and food menu is pretty limited and rather expensive for the mediocre quality and ambience the place offers. The crowd is mostly all undergrads who often get unruly and start smoking and vaping indoors without consequence.

All in all, Definitely would not recommend. Don't waste your time and money here, there are many better options in...
