The SceneSpanning almost an entire city block, this all-in-one eating and drinking establishment offers something for everyone. Because of its proximity to the financial district, the restaurant attracts a strong lunch crowd, while the bar enjoys a lively after-work scene. The crown jewel in the Somers Pubs family features the same authentic Irish touches found in Hennessy's and the Grand Canal. During the work week, the clientele is made up mostly of professionals and tourists, while the weekends bring in a slightly younger, dance-happy crowd.
The Draw
Few places in the city cover as much ground, figuratively and literally. The restaurant is a dependable spot for large portions of filling tavern fare such as Shepherd's pie and fish and chips. Numerous TVs and an impressive selection of beers, malts and cognacs provide a comfy spot to watch a game or catch up with friends after work.
Key Points
- Private Events
- Lunch and Brunch
- Live Entertainment
The Inside Scoop
- The Extras - Brunch is served on weekends starting at 9am, and live music is featured on Sundays from 12pm-3pm.
- Save Money - On most weekends, patrons can avoid paying a $5 cover charge by arriving prior to 9pm.
Insider Pages Reviews for Kennedy's Midtown
I just had a delegation of clients participating on a Trade Mission to Boston. The days were long and stressful so the concierge recommended Kennedey's for our spot to unwind. They were so attentive to our group. Not many establishments will issue seperate checks but they were more than happy to make sure they did whatever worked for us. They reserved a table for our group in semi-private spot which enabled us to talk comfortably about the events of the day and enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant. This is a great spot for groups or couples getting away for the night.

I love Kennedy's. I'm there every week. I love there food and there bartenders are good people. I miss the comedians they used to have on Monday nights. I'll never go in on a Monday now because they have live music from a one-guy or woman show, which is not entertaining to me what-so-ever. It's definately not a place to go if you wana dance, but more of a start off conversational bar. I can't get enough of the place, it's grrrreat.
Pros: GOOD DRINKS, FOOD, and BARTENDERS
Cons: bad entertainment on Monday nights

Needs better entertainment
by rosiepozie
I've been to Kenendy's a number of times, usually for drinks, occasionally for food. I think the barstaff is great (the waitstaff probably is as well, I wouldn't know), the food is good but maybe a bit overpriced, and I generally have a nice time drinking in there. But I dropped in a couple weeks ago and was driven out after not even and hour by the music. I am sorry, but i can't for the life of me understand why any adult would want to go into a bar and listen to a whiny girl with a guitar and a microphone wail about her tragically-ended relationships and misunderstood childhood. I may have endured this at coffee houses in high school, but now when I'm nursing a pint at the end of the day I'd prefer the music on the jukebox, the sound on the game, or just the sound of silence.
Pros: Friendly bartenders
Cons: Whiny girls with guitars

Decent food & place
by cheesemonger11
We went to Kennedy's during the early evening one day after Thanksgiving. The food was great and got to us quickly (we had apps & entrees) but the service was so-so. I think our waitress was really the hostess? I was a little thrown off when we used a coupon and she was supposed to add an 18% tip ... but she added 20% instead. At least *she* thought she was a great waitress! Anyway, I'd definitely recommend. I think it'd be a good after-work drinks spot.
