solutely awful!! Came here last night for a friends band and will never ever go back. Sports bar right... ya not so much. They're tvs are ok but I have seen better. Theyre servers are awful dont look like they enjoy working here at all. And neither would I. Managers following them around and there were a lot of mamagers on. Â Managers also looked unhappy. You can tell they dont trust their staff which is sad. I am a bartender in Boston and you should be able to trust the people u hire! I wouldn't work for managers that cant trust me! Food was boring, drinks were just as expensive here as they are at my bar (which is ridiculous for a small town bar) and worst of all, other friends of mine showed up at 11:35 and they wouldn't let them in cuz thats "their rule" Â Â Â Â Well guess what scoreboards... all your stupid rules and unhappy workers and terrible service has made myself and friends not want to come back
Review Source:Boston sports fans sure do love their Bruins, and you live in the Woburn area, this is obviously the place to meet with your friends to watch the games. We came here on a Saturday night during the playoffs; it was practically standing room only, and there was a pretty good band on stage playing lots of rock and soul favorites mostly from the 70s. Â Nice variety of booths, regular tables, and bistro tables.
The beer list is not what I would call extensive, but I thought it was still quite good. It had the mandatory varieties of Sam, and a few other bottles and drafts, some were familiar, some were new to me. Â We didn't order any food, but those who got here before me dined - quite well - on burgers, fries, and various fried ringed things (like onions and calamari). Â The waitresses came by often, and the bus staff cleaned off the table frequently.
I think the only place you can be to not see a TV here is if you sit under a table. Of the about 2 dozen TVs this evening, all but 3 of them were showing the Bruins game. Two of them had the mandatory Keno, and we were FINALLY able to convince our waitress to put on the Sox game on one - just ONE - TV.
The thing that amused me the most is that to get to the rest rooms, you had to leave the bar and go through the lobby of the Crowne Plaza Hotel to which this is adjacent. There was one employee at the glass doors whose sole purpose was to open the door for anyone going in or out. I hope he's paid well.
Awesome place !!
Amazing band hurland brothers was playing so much fun and great music kept me and my girlfriends dancing all night ,,and the fact they played country , rock and pop is a huge plus !! and the set up is huge plenty if room for moving despite it was packed  , and the drinks are so delishious and to over done sometimes you have a great nite this was definitely one if them met some great people !
Staff was very friendly bartenders are fun and polite despite how busy it was had a great nite
I went here with my husband last night 2 watch the Bruins game. Â I knew the service was slow but we had 2 wait apx 40mins 4 our potato skins. That wasn't even the worst part though. The worst part was when I took a sip of water & got a piece of glass through the straw. Â The manager never came over 2 say sorry & nothing was taken off our bill. The waiter offered 2 pay 4 our potato skins but we didn't feel it was his responsibility. We used 2 go here almost once a week but I don't think we will be back here anytime soon.
Review Source:My friend's and I had a great time there for the game Monday. We got a perfect table and we were able to see a few TV's so we could all watch the game no matter what seat we were in. Even as busy as they were in there the waitress was right over to us. We received our drinks in less than 5 minutes.
I got the turkey sandwich which has guacamole in it which was absolutely amazing and the bread was nice and toasted. Â My friends all enjoyed their food also, we had nacho's, a burger and some turkey tips. Everyone was satisfied with their meals and we cant wait to head back for another game. We loved how enthusiastic the staff was and how they blew their whistles when the Patriots made a good play!
This was our first time here and we will never go back!
The food was ok but nothing to rave about. Â We got appetizers only: buffalo chicken wings, sliders and calamari. Â The wings were tasty but drenched in sauce, calamari was soggy not crispy and the sliders were kind of rubbery. Â The drinks were good but over priced for the size (very small).
The worst part about this place was the service! Our waitress literally disappeared! We didn't see her once after we placed our order. Â Other tables in the section started complaining too and the manager came over to take other tables' orders, but there was no apology, no explanation, no offer to comp us a drink to make up for it. Â It was actually the hostess who was the most helpful to us-she is the one who got us our check, apologized and told us that they didn't know where our waitress had gone.
We paid the bill and left no tip-something I have never done in my life. Â The place is just a disaster! We will never go back there again. Â If you've never been, don't bother!
What a collosal dissapointment. What sports bar doesn't allow shots? Seriously.
From the moment walking in the door, it was a downer. Semi-enthusiastic hostess blindly shuffled us to a table directly under the loudest corner of TV's. Not a serious issue for me as there were several games on, but was hard to hear the princess without yelling across the table. No silverware. No Napkins. Waitress came over and was friendly enough, took out drink orders and went off and about. No silverware, no napkins. Drinks back, starting to consume, food order in. A barely acceptable spinach dip shows up, still no napkins, no silverware. Really?
 At this point, we had called over our waitress, seated at a table near us chatting up some equally loud other females, and requested napkins and silverware as it would be nice.
Entree' arrives, fancy words for half-assed burgers, and it was cooked. Nothing really spectacular. The fried were decent, but that's the nicest thing I have to say. I really wanted to like this place, but was let down. For shame scoreboard, for shame.
The only good thing about this place are the multiple TVs. Â The food is not good at all. Â Our service was actually pretty good, but I can't get over bad food. Â We had the calamari and chicken poppers for appetizers and split a reuben sandwich for the main. Â None of it was worth mentioning.
I'm going to give it one more shot and try the wings. Â If they mess that up I'm going to have to say "Sayonara" to the Scoreboard.
I am not one to bad mouth restaurants unless they are horrible, but this place is horrible! Â If I could give it 'no stars' I would. Â
The food is fine, but too expensive for what you get and they have a poor selection of beer (we don't all like coors/bud light folks - some people like beer with taste). Â
But the absolute worst part is the service. Â It's slow, VERY slow, unexcuseably SLOW even. The bartenders are so rude (oh, i'm sorry, I thought your job was to serve me - am I mistaken? Â You have something better to be doing? get a new job.)
And one of the waiters (pretty sure he sleeps there) was using the mike system for his own amusement last time I was there. Â He was literally screaming asking people if they knew where a certain address was. Â Once? ok. Â Four-five times? Dude, you're annoying - past annoying. Â
This place is like a bad high school party - everyone is hammered, most are probably underage, everyone is rude, and people are embarassing themselves trying to look cool. Â Ugh, Scoreboards - I hate you.
I've been here a handful of times because I live 5 minutes away. The beers are cold, and their jolly rancher martini is delicious. Their apps are hit or miss - nachos and calamari were ok but the artichoke dip was watery and the sliders were dry. Whenever I've come for lunch or dinner though I've never been disappointed. The all star burger is a good choice, but the turkey sandwich with guacamole is delicious! My husband and I have also had the steak tip and turkey tips for dinner and both were cooked perfect and delicious. We will keep coming back
Review Source:Three stars is a stretch, but 2 doesn't seem fair. The food here is fine, nothing more, nothing less. Prices are fair too I would say. The problem I have experienced ( as have several others, according to these reviews ) is the service . I have been here probably 4-5 times. There is a bartender named Amy who is great, fun, funny, outgoing etc, the type of things you would want and appreciate in a bartender. But we have found the other bartenders to be outright surly. I have been a bartender and a waitress and I know it's not an easy job, by any means. It's just so irritating to repeatedly thank them when they bring a drink or food or whatever, and never once get a smile or a "you're welcome" or anything close to that.
Review Source:My friend and I arrived too early (or too late) for The Avengers and decided to get a snack at the Scoreboard located virtually next door to the Woburn Cinema. I was immediately impressed by their lay-out; plenty of room, huge televisions everywhere and a great Boston sports theme.
The menu was fantastic, and we both quickly decided to get a full meal instead of an appetizer to share. My friend got the schrod and I got the ziti chicken with broccoli. Both delicious and big, but not too big. The prices were great too. We tried a Sam Adams blueberry beer (with the addition of real blueberries) and that was great too. Our waitress was nice, and not intrusive at all but fast with the drinks and bill which I liked since I didn't want to be late to the movie.
The only thing I didn't like was navigating the job fair going on in the corridor (it's located inside a hotel) en route to the bathrooms. Not their fault, of course, but kind of a pain. I did get asked if I had a resume with me though!
Cover charge? in Woburn!? Â In a Woburn hotel bar??
Went to check out this place on Friday night, just looking for some quick bar food a a drink for a relaxing low key night. Â Complete and utter shock when got to the bar and they asked for a $5 cover. Once inside was blown away by the amount of people and insanely loud atmosphere... in Woburn. Although, by no means was looking for this type of night, I was pleasantly surprised. Â Tons of TVs every where, great DJ, lively atmosphere, friendly folks (not weird awkward friendly). Â Cheap beer/wine/ food. Â (Agree with other reviews-- this place wants to be a night club). Â
Service is slow. Â I would have ordered more drinks if I had the opportunity. Â Food was ok- just ordered a bunch of apps- calamari, nachos and sliders. Â I would not be drawn back specifically for the food. The atmosphere was fun enough that we stuck around for a while. Â
Also, they have no rest rooms in the bar-- you have to wander out into the hotel lobby... and then have to get checked for a wrist band to enter back into the hotel bar. It was a bit awkward of a process.
I've been here a handful of times with my friend for Tuesday trivia night or to watch various playoff games. The best part about trivia night is that all appetizers are half priced. I don't really suggest going here for dinner. The food is terrible. For all the options they have you'd think something has to be good, but I haven't found it yet. And the service doesn't help. For some reason no matter how busy it is, it always takes the waitresses a good 15 minutes to bring you anything after you order it, including drinks. And the waitresses are impossible to track down to even order something. Since the renovation the restaurant looks nice, but I don't plan to go there unless I'm playing trivia.
Review Source:This is a great sports bar. Plenty of TVs and all kinds of programming
on a variety of screen sizes. The bands that they have on weekends are
good too. The downside is the food and service. In 3 visits, we've had to
wait quite a while for food and drinks while seated at a table and the last
visit we had to remind the waitress who said the chef had to leave and
they were trying to find someone to prepare the food....d'oh! This used to
be a decent place when it was first opened, not sure what's happened
since the new facelift and staff changes.
I went here last Wednesday for wing night. The wings are pretty good and the only reason why I have it at 4 stars opposed to 5 is because...well it took me 5 beers (I count time in beers) before I got my wings. I believe they forgot to put in my order, granted they did buy one of my beers and had they bought me 2 they would have gotten the 5 star rating. Overall a great place and some interesting people so I would/will go back again.
Review Source:I had the opportunity to come in here for Monday Night Football while in town for business. I have to say, this place is pretty good for a sports bar in a Holiday Inn. It has a ton of flat screen TVs to watch the game, a lot of tables, good entertainment, and  decent pub food. There was a local radio station here that night giving away prizes for sports trivia. I sat at the bar, and the bartenders were very friendly. I ordered some dry rub wings as an appetizer and some buffalo sauce on the side. The wings came out quickly and were pretty tasty.  I had a wrap for dinner (forgot what kind) but it was really good and so were the sweet potato fries that came with it. Overall a good choice for a sports bar.
Review Source:I hate to rate this place so low but since "the renovation" took place I don't like it anymore. When I was there last Saturday I thought I'm getting into a high end night club with the bouncer at the door who shushed me into a line of people waiting to get in.
20 minutes later I got in and it was way too busy and impossible to get a table for food. A live band was performing. They did a nice job actually but it was way too loud. Took me forever to get a beer at the bar because they were understaffed and hence got a rude attitude.
I don't know what this place wants to be. Club? Sportsbar? Restaurant? A bit of everything?
Great atmosphere to watch a game or play trivia on Tuesday nights. It's recently renovated, spacious and has a multitude of high-def televisions everywhere. Some nights they have live bands too.
Overall a decent place. Average prices. Mediocre pubfare. A good spot to endulge in Keno too.
This place is horrible! Â I'm a huge sports bar fan, I love the food, atmosphere, and general feel for these types of places. Â So when I finally went to check this place out I was pumped. Â I showed up on a Friday night with my girlfriend, apparently they had a cover band playing and it was 10 dollars per person just to sit and eat.....LAME!!!! Â We left and decided to come back a week later when there wouldn't be a charge to get into the place. Â This wound up being our biggest mistake of all.
The Bad: Â We were seated to a dirty table, it took five minutes for the waitress to come over and clean it. Â The Patriots were on so we decided to get a bunch of appetizers rather then main courses, we got the spinach and artichoke dip, buffalo wings, potato skins, and a salad, all of it more expensive then the average sports bar. Â It took 35 minutes for the food to get out, and what we got was a joke. Â Everything was as bland as it gets, the spinach and artichoke dip was watery, the wings and potato skins had no taste, and the salad had ordinary written all over it. Â The waitress never came by to see how our food was and as a result dirty dishes continued to pile up around our table. Â
The atmosphere of the place wasn't much better, it was mostly an older crowd yelling and shouting like they were five years old at the tv's. Â Lots of drunks spilling beer and food, you get the point. Â
The good: Â I have nothing good to say about this place, hence the one star. Â Avoid this place, I dont see it getting any better, the only reason I think this place is still open is the fact that it's attached to a hotel.
My wife got a deal at <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2FRestaurant.com&s=0aab4cbd731f3d3b0d1453050d3abc56a8c80bd214e25469c7555b750dca8a51" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://Restaurant.com</a> for this restaurant, so we decided to try it out. Â After going there, I think we overpaid! Â
Pros: Â Lots of tv's to watch games.
Cons: Â Nachos ordered with chli.....way too much cheese and barely any chili. Â We waited forever to get dishes from our waiter. Â Fish and Chips tasted like something from the Gorton's fisherman tv dinner. Â Lobster Roll tasted fishy and watered down with mayo. Waiter was slow and the Hostess was snaping her gum and twirling her hair like a High Schooler. Â Not cool.
Needless we wont be going back there. Â Now let me go back to pumping the food out of my stomach.
I was looking for a new Sports bar - esp. since Bostonville is gone. Â
This place is nice, new, and fun. Â TV's all around. Â Great place to watch a game or a guy.... ha ha ha
Check it out next time your looking for a place to hang out for a few drinks while watching a game.
I went and had fun......
Great atmosphere, especially for a Pats game. Â It was packed but that was expected during the game. Â Was seated about half hour after we got there. Â Food came quickly and hot. Â Not the best....nothing spectacular. Â They gave free buffalo wings during half time....nice touch. Â Will definitely come here again. Â Free wifi too
Review Source:Went last night to see a U2 Tribute band Joshua Tree, We got there early because we wanted to have a meal before the show. The waitress was extremely nice and attentive. The food was great, much, much better than I expected after seeing a few bad reviews but I honestly think those are not quite the truth probably people loyal to other bars in the area or people with an ax to grind. The drinks were reasonably priced the beer was ice cold and the drinks strong. The meal went well not one complaint out of all 11 people I was with. We actually got friendly with a group at another table and plan to meet back there again. The show was just the best, Joshua Tree was awesome you would swear you were listening to the Real U2. Great crowd lots of people everyone was nice. This was our first visit and will not be our last. They might just have another regular.
OH! One thing you should know, they do not admit anyone after 11:30 pm I guess this has been in effect for some time. One of my friends works late and we found out about this rule when I asked the bouncer at the door if I could buy a ticket for him and he would be late. IMO it's a good rule and I applaud them for it. I guess it's in order to keep out people who get wasted else where and then go out to catch last call and usually cause trouble.
Best place, North of Boston (Woburn) to hang out and see/listen to live bands/good music or watch your favorite team or sport on one of a few dozen large flatscreens in the bar or dining areas. Over all the other bars in the area this IS the place to go and will probably outlast the others. I  originally started going here a few years ago just to see the bands but I love the place if it's just  to meet friends and have a bite or just hang out, It's well worth the drive. Everyone I talk in the Woburn area likes this place out of all the others in the area. Everyone I have brought here or recommend TPs to and the bands I know that play here all like it a lot. There is always a good lively crowd every time I go.
Great staff, very friendly, good food, very reasonable prices and plenty of FREE Parking not like in Woburn Center where parking is a bitch. They always have great bands here on a regular basis check out their web site and check out the bands. There is nothing in the area that even comes close so try it out.
Edit: Had to add a 5th star after going to a few other places in the area just down the street actually. The Scoreboard it THE place to hang out watch a game, see a band or just go for some decent reasonably priced food.
I've been to the Scoreboard many, many times with friends and family. Mostly for trivia on Tuesday nights, occasionally to hang with some friends to watch a big game.
They've recently renovated and I have to say that the layout is about 20 times better than it was before. In the bar area alone, there are 25 tvs. I'm pretty sure that no matter what seat you're sitting at, you have a good view of the game which is awesome. Really looking forward to watching either football or hockey there. Only downer from what I could see, is that they don't have a lot of booths anymore. They have 3-4 really large booths near the entrance but the rest are either high top or lower tables with regular chairs. Looks like it might be harder for larger groups to hang out (at least close to the bar area).
Now, we've been here a ton of times and it really varies. One night we'll have a great night with good servers and good food. Other nights, not so much. Sort of a hit or miss in my opinion.
We went today to check out the place and were seated right away . But, it took our server about 15 minutes to come and even take our drink order. She was very nice but I'm pretty sure she was the only waitress working (we went at 4pm on a Sunday). When we got our food, my fiance's burger was awesome (looked good too). I got the vodka penne pasta and it was flavorful but the pasta was so overdone it was soggy. Kinda gross. I know I asked for it by getting pasta at a sports bar but, come on. Pasta is not hard to cook.
Can't wait to go back for trivia. it'll be interesting to see how the staff performs with a larger crowd. Love the remodel and love all the new tvs. 3 stars for now.
The service is, in a word, horrible. We usually would stay away from a place with such bad service, but they had Stump Trivia on Tuesday nights; we like playing trivia and it's close by.
Our first time there, we sat at the bar. Â The bartenders had to finish their conversation with each other before greeting us. After that, it seemed like it was an inconvenience to bring us a beer. Â The next week, we decided to sit at a table in the bar. We figured it couldn't get worse; we were wrong. The waiter seemed like he didn't want to be there and his attitude towards us showed.
We did get lucky a couple of times and had 2 absolutely wonderful waitresses. Â They paid attention to why we were there & knew what we were looking for. They came by the table when we needed drinks, yet they didn't come by every two mins. asking if we needed something. They are the reason we gave 2 stars instead of 1.
Management seriously needs to review their staff.
If I could give this place negative stars I would. I have been a patron there a few times before, spending a lot of money and was completely mistreated and insulted by this establishment and their staff last night. Â
The Bruins were 8 minutes from winning their first Stanley Cup in almost 40 years, something I have been waiting to witness my whole life (I'm 32), and had a lot of meaning for me since my grandfather who was a huge Bruins fan and introduced me to hockey, passed in 2008. I was meeting a good friend of mine who lives in Woburn, to catch the end of the game and when I got to the door, they didn't let me in. I was the only person at the door, Â the bar was not full and this was not a safety issue, as I asked if they would let me in if someone left and they still said no, saying in a very arrogant tone, that it was a management decision. I was then accosted by an extremely rude and crass police officer with a brown shirt complex, who was standing at the door, yelling "Drop the attitude" at me, more than once and giving me dirty looks, threatening to arrest me (what law I was breaking, I would still like to know). My friend had to leave his drink inside the bar, and walk out in order to enjoy the last few minutes of the game with me.
We ended up leaving, missing the celebrations on the ice, and went to the local Applebee's down the street which was a much better choice than this place.
I am educated, an energy consultant  (not some thug), and I have never been in trouble with the law in my life. I have been in bars and restaurants all over this world, including in some countries considered to be less "civilized" than the US, and I have never in my life been treated like I was last night at Scoreboard in Woburn, MA. I hadn't even had a single drink that night. My only "crime" was wanting to join my friend inside a bar that was not at full capacity, in order to enjoy this special, rare and unique moment. I'm sure this was the most action this bar and cop have seen in their lifetimes, hence the superiority complex from both.
I will never be going back to this trashy place again, and I am recommending all of my friends to stay away as well. My local friend who has spent a ton of money in this place will also not being going back, and spreading the word about Scoreboard to the Woburn community.
If you want patrons to return to your establishment, in order to spend money and pay your salary and rent, you cannot treat them like a piece of trash. Go back to school and take some business management classes. Also hiring local police officers to provide private security, in most countries, is considered illegal. I'm not sure why, in the US ,this is allowed.
-Alexander F Taveira
been here a few times...I like this place because I usually feel like a pagent queen on a Friday night if you catch my drift. if you didn't I'll explain...a weird crowd of mixed bikers, the 40+(some perhaps may still dress and feel 20 at heart..and shouldn't) sports fans(all ages) and oh yea...me.
beers cold, tvs are huge, and usualy a decent cover band.
Also I've had there wings and potato skins wich were pretty good!
Cheers!
I have enjoyed some meals at this restaurant but last night was not the case. Â We had a lovely server, not her fault the food wasn't good. Â I got a pressed veggie panini w/eggplant and other veggies. Â The eggplant was not in the sandwich, the mushrooms were canned and the ciabata bread, ahh it wasn't... Â It was tasteless and would never get it again.
Review Source:Food is pretty weak. Â I mean they really are just mailing it in on 80% of the menu items. Â The wings were decent and most likely the highlight of the options. Â That said it is a decent place to watch a game. Â They have a good amount of TVs with many different games on. Decent beer selection. Â The place could be so much better if they put a little more heart in the menu and cooking. But for just beers and games is adequate.
Review Source:Great place to come and play Stump Trivia on Tuesday nights, $3 draft Buds, big LCD TVs on the wall and some projectors too. Crowd is generally late 20s-30s professional types and during the Celts finals it was quite packed.
Food was just so-so bar type pub fare, but everything is priced right and it's close by. What more could you want?
So I've been to this Bar twice within one week.
Once to catch Game One of the Celtics/Lakers Finals Thursday night...and once on a date this past Sunday.
For the game, it was mostly drinks with a friend of mine...we ordered some Buffalo Wings b/c that is what you do when you're out drinking watching sports events.
The drinks were really good and reasonably priced. Â Had a dirty martini that was pretty good...not stellar...but certainly not bad either. Â For me, it comes down to the olives and the brine...these olives were decent. Â The wings weren't hot at all, but the company I had probably wouldn't have wanted them spicier anyway. Â They tasted fine...and weren't the battered up kind you get at any New England Sandwich/Pizza shop. Â (kinda expensive tho)
The bar is great, lots of room...there was a dining room attached that had Karaoke...and thankfully, I won't rate Scoreboard by the Karaoke participants...ouch!
Friendly and attentive staff too! Â If ya happen to run into an impossibly cute blond waitress, guaranteed her name is Carli...and she's awesome.
For the dinner-n-a-movie date...had an All American Cheeseburger with Cheddar cheese and fries. Â The Cheeseburger was pretty good...cooked medium just as I requested. Â The fries were, well...so ya know when Burger King decided to change their french fries to the weird ones they have now? Â They have like a batter or some crap on the outside of them? Â Yeah...these fries are larger versions of those. Â Honestly, they weren't AS bad, but I am not a huge fan of this type.
My company that night had some Pasta Fagioli soup, which she claimed was really good.
Anyway...this place can be found in the Holiday Inn next to Showcase Cinemas in Woburn. Â
So honestly...for a sports event or dinner and a movie, I would recommend checking it out!
Used to be Tony Pilla's.
None of us got sick, and some of the food wasn't bad. In fact, the remaining Italian-American dishes (spaghetti w/ meatballs, chicken parm) weren't too bad. But the burgers were a big disappointment, the service was very slow. Overall, the food and ambiance was indistinguishable from an Applebee's but worse service and a shorter menu.
