Cheap beer and darts. Lots of Irish expats here, this is a real Irish pub, so you could listen to people talk all day.

Murphy's Law is a pub that has a distinct atmosphere. This is a traditional South Boston watering hole. Intimate in scale, it has a relaxed feel that is underlined by its idiosyncratic decoration of watercolor paintings, Irish maps and local sports team paraphernalia, in addition to the expected televisions, video games and dart boards. Unexpected elements include the barbie dolls and old superhero characters above the bar, which was filmed for Ben Affleck's movie, "Gone Baby Gone." Also, Murphy's Law served as the dive bar location for the Christopher Walken-Morgan Freeman flick "The Maiden Heist."

Another great pub for your Southie Pub Crawl! At this bar, you can expect a full range of alcoholic beverages and there are TVs for games, matches, etc. There are DJ's on weekend nights for added fun. In addition, there is a great selection of finger foods, including amazing mozzarella sticks.

The very small sign above the door simply states Shannon's. Shannon's is a Southie bar, a neighborhood institution if you may. No need for pretense, you will not get any "creative cocktails" here. Just cold, cheap beer, interesting local clientele, bar games, and good, clean fun. If you have an aversion to a thick Boston accent, you might want to think twice about checking out the Shannon. Touted a great dive bar by many patrons.
