Downstairs is a spiffy, high-ceilinged room that's gussied up with turn-of-the-century Boston memorabilia like parking meters and shiny brass detailing; it feels as if Mary Poppins opened a tavern. Upstairs is a colossal warren of pool… Read Full Editorial

If you're hungover, eat brunch here! by gethebassics via Citysearch on 3/12/2010

So I haven't been to Big City on a weekend night to play billiards or anything, but I have experienced their brunch, and... WOW. The brunch was delicious, and the portions were huge - I don't think I paid more than $10. As an extra BONUS,…

great for gathering by Alicia E via Insider Pages on 2/26/2010

This is a great Friday night place. Go have one of several beer choices and enjoy the laid back atmosphere and great location.

Fun place, lots of beers. by Shannon L via Insider Pages on 8/15/2009

This is a fun bar to go to with your friends. There are so many different kinds of beer on tap, it's amazing. There are pool tables and a fair amount of space for people to stand around. The most fun times I've had here are when the bar…

Not too bad by Glenn K via Insider Pages on 7/30/2009

Lots of space in this place and while it does get pretty jammed with people it's a good spot to go with a group of folks since there's usually enough room to find space to hang out.

Secret Brunch by J. H via Insider Pages on 4/20/2009

This place gets a bum rap as an underage-drinker-filled pool hall but I have discovered it's hidden superhero identity - Super Brunch Spot! Seriously, awesome food (including delicious free basket of pastries), good drinks and NO ONE knows…

Decent food but Sneaky Business by afrdrx via Citysearch on 7/25/2007

After 5 years in Boston, Big City has become a fairly regular destination...the food's decent, there's a lot of pool tables, and the beer selection's pretty good. Here's the problem...they steal your money and hope you don't find out. On…

Mmm Beer by seanskee7 via Citysearch on 10/5/2006

Very impressive beer selection, both on tap and bottles. Easy location. Accomodating service. You don't have to be a pool cat to have a good time here, there are plenty of spots to just have a seat and hang out with your crew/date. The…

Popular Allston hangout takes patrons back to the days when drinking and playing pool were part of everyone's life. by Contributor via Citysearch on 8/8/2006

The Scene
Fashioned like a police station from the black-and-white-TV era, Big City's first floor houses the calmer, family-oriented restaurant, complete with a large color mural on one wall and an eight-foot Statue of Liberty.…

Foosball and billiard heaven by rob s. via Judy's Book on 6/3/2006

Big City is located above Sunset Grill & Tap, and I'm pretty sure owned by the same company. The have a lot of beers on tap, but no hard liquor license. They do serve this stuff called UV, which is almost hard alcohol, but it has so much…

big city by rasta via Citysearch on 5/6/2004

a good call for hanging out playing pool ,drinking good beer. big room and no cover entertainment in the downstairs area where the pizza kitchen is. great atmosphere and big enough to move around to different rooms.lots of stuff going on…

Buyer Beware by jubilant02134 via Citysearch on 6/22/2003

Great drinks and beer...FOR SURE! Great fun at the pool tables too. BUT, don't eat here. Overpriced. $14 for a plate of jambalaya with chicken, sausage, and shrimp. Good thing shrimp is singular AND plural...there was only one on my plate…

cheeseburger and fry pizza is unbelievable must try,the shrimp pesto is fantastic too.the food is way more than youd expect from a place with 20 pool tables.the bartender raj turned me on to belgian beers on tap.first went to big city with…

Unbelievable! by byrneco via Citysearch on 3/13/2003

I go to Big City occasionally since I live nearby. Last weekend we just went there for something to eat. After the waitress eventually arrived we ordered our meals. She arrives back with a glass of wine that was a quarter…

Idiot! by sb_fido via Citysearch on 10/29/2002

This is a great place to play pool and sample some of the 100+ beers they have on tap. If you go to play pool, it's another story. When my friend and I went to pay for our pool time, our bill came to 11.87, but it took the stupid girl at…

Bad experience by pjcotter08 via Citysearch on 10/17/2002

If you are thinking about holding some sort of get together for a large group here, do not bother. I organized a graduate school event here where we brought about 30 people to their establishment. We were treated rudely by management and…
