Not only do they have an amazing beer selection but you have to order the polenta fries! They are to die for!
Earl Belcher JrOctober 2, 2014
Excellent craft beer selections. 50 taps. Some nice bottles too.
Ben BaronMay 11, 2016
A little on the loud side. House beers are very good.
JulieSeptember 6, 2014
Brunch: house cured lox, and fruit and yogurt are amazing!
Nicolas WardNovember 9, 2011
The macaroni and cheese (with bacon!) is decadent. Try it with a hoppy beer, like Green Flash Hop Head Red.
Neel HajareNovember 10, 2017
Good beer selection and good vibe—particularly like the Hobo Life

Great for late night beers and cocktails!

Delicious truffle fries! London 77 was a bit too sour :(
Eric VenkerMay 13, 2014

Ask for the truffle fries. They're only on the late night menu, but they have them all the time. Amazing.
Becki FrieiefnfnMarch 21, 2015
Incredible beer / food selection --- truffle fries overrated though 👃
Boston.comJuly 23, 2010
Maybe we can just call this “the place with the awesome beer that used to be the B-Side.’’ I can get behind 40 draft selections and 40-plus bottles. Read more

Best place for beer snobs in Cambridge.
Stacy BuchananNovember 7, 2011
Get the chocolate covered pretzels -- the peanut butter mousse that comes with them is amazing!
BeckyOctober 22, 2010
If you like beer, you will like Lord Hobo. If you don't (like me), you will order a drink that is so strong and pungent that you won't be able to breathe. The food took forever & was forgettable.
Scott OwadesAugust 8, 2014
Great beer and a very friendly staff. $3 gansett.
Phil MoehringFebruary 25, 2013
Get the short rib. You will not be disappoint.
Adrian MottMay 20, 2010
Excellent beer selection. Try the German .5 liter pints! Food is good, but not as cheap as your average bar. Maybe because this ain't your average bar. Props to the charcuterie!
Kat ChenMay 22, 2012
While the beer selection is awesome, they could really use a charcuterie plate.
Jessica McIntireJuly 7, 2016
Truffle fries are a must!
BostonTweetAugust 15, 2010
50 craft beers on tap and the Lord Hobo kitchen stays open until 1:30am on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
Jeff D.March 17, 2013
Chicago Half Acre on tap! Do this if you like great beer!

If Heather is working, ask her for a bourbon in the $10 range, whatever she likes. Dame knows her whisky.
Annaliza aka Elle EcritApril 28, 2012
$1 Oysters daily. They don't shuck 'em very cleanly, though.
Conor MartinAugust 7, 2015
Lots of beer. 40+ on tap
Kevin CoutuAugust 18, 2015
Hobo burger, great beer list
Torey WhitfieldAugust 23, 2018
Go for the beer
Pamela RossJanuary 7, 2012
Beer selection great! Food is ok.. Dont order the brie or hummus and expect to be filled up. The ratio of hummus/brie to bread is sad.. Portions are small for the price
Sophie ChungAugust 7, 2013
$1 oysters from 5pm-7pm!
Cristina RuizJanuary 13, 2016
Lots of beers! Lots of IPAs. Just ok food.
Sarah MeyerMarch 23, 2013
They have sours. End of story.

Just ask the bartender. They'll hook you up.

Go for the bacon bloody mary. It's delish.

Sam is a fucking rock star.

Troeg tap takeover was great.
Andrew MaroneyOctober 6, 2011
TV is really bright. They need to turn that gamma down and/or degauss. Shiny shoes.
Brigitte PerezMarch 31, 2015
Food is great but the service is horrible.
Nathan P.September 14, 2011

Skip food, skip cocktails, order beer. Ultra clean taps and never a bad pour.
FrankDecember 2, 2012
Crazy waiter!

Come with your friend Nancy already drunk; it's a lot of fun.
Graham SpectorApril 16, 2011
Unless you're a cambridge resident, take a cab or walk. Zero parking options.
