We came mid day so there wasn’t a wait and we had one of the private areas near the water. Check in was seamless and finding out where to go was straight forward. The staff was amazing, everyone from taking orders to the wonderful staff working in the food areas were all super helpful and answered all questions we had. The food prices were a little out of hand in my opinion. Totally get it being like a night out, but a bill can rack up fast if you want food + drinks. Otherwise my experience was positive and it was a gorgeous day and view

Incredible nice view with fair prices for food and drinks, absolutely suggested for the sunset. Plenty of tables with games available for free after the entrance and you can grab drinks and food from different stands as you prefer (or just chill around and take pics). A must see in Boston!

A unique venue with great food choices (converted containers) a skyline view and multiple bars on and off the ship. With plenty of seating and outdoor games, nobody was bored. The stage with a huge TV and speakers in every corner seemingly brought us to Foxborough without the traffic or cramped seats!

Such a cool spot! Cocktails and service were great. Right next to the ship are food trucks and a stage with live music as well as covered seating and clean restrooms.

all Ship Boston is an amazing spot — I absolutely loved it. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, with plenty of space to enjoy the day, even with kids. There are great food and drink options, and the waterfront views of Boston are truly beautiful. They also have live music, which adds to the fun and relaxed vibe. Whether you’re going for a casual lunch, drinks with friends, or just to enjoy the view, it’s a fantastic place to hang out. Highly recommended!

My review would be for the atmosphere and the drinks alone. The food was not my favorite but i did not mind it at all. My son took us there for fathers day and we loved it. The drink i had was so good and strong worth the money. Please go there even if you have young kids there are ganes there that the whole family can participate and play. The view on my God the best one. I was so so happy.

Probably the best atmosphere in Boston on a sunny summer day. The food was exceptional and so many choices. I found so many things to keep me busy not just for the eye. I would highly recommend thos place. Possibly one of the best locations for a company event. That or meeting up with a larger crew of people.

Tall Ship Boston is such a fun summer spot! The outdoor space with water views is beautiful — perfect for hanging out with friends. There’s a great mix of food trucks, drinks, music, and games, plus the Tall Ship itself adds a unique touch. It’s a great vibe overall. Just a heads-up: I had a disappointing experience with the Mexican food truck, but everything else made up for it. Also, it can get pretty crowded, so be mindful of the time you arrive — the lines can get long. Still, it’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in Boston during the warmer months!
