Lansdowne Street and Brookline Avenue bars like 'Game On' and the 'Cask 'n Flagon' tend to attract tourists, thanks to their proximity to the park. To avoid crowds, try spots a few blocks out like 'The Lower Depths', which has a huge array of customizable tater tots, or 'Cornwall's', a hangout for diehard fans. People usually arrive a couple of hours before game time, and Fenway's gates open 90 minutes prior.

Game on and Cask 'N Flagon are probably the two most "popular” sports bars in Fenway, but they're definitely not the best places to go. If the weather isn't nice (or you want to be inside) Boston Beer Works and Lansdowne Pub are two awesome spots to be before a game (Beer Works has great bar food). Jerry Remy's used to have the best roof deck in town for when the weather is nice, but now, your two best bets if you want to be outdoors are Baseball Tavern or Who's on First? Baseball Tavern is your best bang for your buck for food and drink.

Landsowne Pub is my favorite place to grab a cold one before the game. There are also other bars on this street. Game on has become a popular one recently and has good specials and a lively atmosphere.

Thanks guys!!
