A drinking spot that is particularly popular with Red Sox fans has decided to close down for the time being.
According to a source, Game On! has gone into hibernation, with a note on the website for the Lansdowne Street spot saying that "Unfortunately due to the effects of Covid-19, Game On Fenway is closed for the winter." The note refers customers to The Bleacher Bar and Loretta's Last Call, both of which are affiliated with Game On! and are also located on Lansdowne Street, while also telling patrons to "tip your servers well" no matter where they go because "it's tough times out there for them."
Game On! is one of an increasingly-large number of restaurants and bars in the Boston area to go into winter hibernation, with other Fenway spots closing for the winter including The Lansdowne Pub, Trillium's beer garden, Orfano, and Tiger Mama.
The address for Game On! is 82 Lansdowne Street, Boston, MA, 02215. Its website can be found at https://www.gameonboston.com/
