I used to live down the street from this spot many years ago, and had the chance to visit while in town. Still cash only. Same feel. Friendly bartender. Beer selection has definitely changed in 15 years, but, ya know, what can one expect. Good times, nice to have spots like this, and Charlie's Kitchen, that are solid and familiar.

Central square's gem. The field is our rendezvous point and has been the case for last two years. Everything about this place embodies joy and happiness. Great selection of food and other items.

Food was ok, forgot parts of my meal but we're quick to bring it to me when I told them. It's cash only which is kind of a bummer. Small selection of beers but the choices were pretty good.

Great place for a cheap drink and game of pool. Selection isn't very large and the bar is cash-only but it's exactly what you would expect. In summer, there is a nice outside area in back. There's also a pretty good selection of bar food, which is nice if you get there early enough to secure a table.

Same owners of White Horse Tavern and the Last Drop, the red front ties them all together. Solid Irish pub with matching football and Guinness on tap. Can't speak for the food...dont really come for that.

The Field is one of the greats. As far as dive bars go it's a Cambridge institution. Darts, pool and $3.50 PBR tall boys. Other than a card reader, the Field has it all!

If you are looking for an Irish pub probably this place is fine. I myself have a soft spot for such a place and wish them well.

Come here often with friends for Friday after work beers. The food is pretty unremarkable, but beers are not too expensive. When the weather is good, their patio is nice to spend time in, if you can find a table. They have a pool table, but it's a bit hard to play since space is limited. The absence of loud music and the fact that it's not too crowded makes it easy to chat with your friends without yelling, which is a plus to me.

Extremely inconsiderate management and wait staff that were quite rude and didn't give patrons the time of day and decided that they would discriminate against certain types of people. Also the pool table didn't work. Complete trash

The service here sucks. I was there on a night that wasn’t busy and the wait staff acted like it was a burden to get me a beer. The servers quickly visited other new tables that arrived but chose to ignore my table. I kept making eye contact with the servers and even waved my hand to get their attention (which they saw). When I finally went up to order the waitress wasn’t even nice, seemed mad that I would even ask for a beer...at a bar.

Okay, so let me tell you about this place. It is the perfect mix of laid-back trash sort of bar and the most casual mix. The atmosphere is so relaxed and then people are low-key. The thing that I absolutely loved the most is the music selection. Every single song was the perfect balance of tasteful, yet slightly obscure; a true hipster's dream, if that's still even a thing. Overall, this bar is an enjoyable an experience

My friend went here with some friends, and he was kicked out for hydrating from what appeared to be (but was not) a "hip flask". He finished his paid for drink, and was getting ready to bicycle home. He drank from his water bottle, and before he had a chance to say goodbye to his friends, a bar staff grabbed his arm and pulled him outside saying that he had to leave immediately because "we don't allow hip flasks here".

Food is good, relative to the cost. There's outside eating and cocktails. 2 /3 of the wait staff are good... definitely not their first rodeo. Not everyone is suited for that job. Great place for decent food. Generous portions. I'm glad I found it!

My favorite haunt in central, the field was one of the first places I hung out when I moved to Boston. I can be anyone I want at the field. Very relaxed environment, I love how casual cool it is. They have 3 tequilas in their selection, not my taste but I come here for the people, the environment, and the free pool.

I have only been to this bar once. They are only cash only so if you're like me you'll be looking in your bag for your last few bucks or you'll be at the ATM machine. The bar tender was nice and the drinks were good. I did not have any food, so I can't comment on that.

JUST REMEMBER TO TAKE CASH. Really nice pub friendly employees I went there to have a good time and they made sure they make it happen. Also if you are a cocktail lover just tell them which one and they will make it for you or otherwise tell them how to make it they make sure you have it. Nice place thumbs up.

It is strange that the reviews for this place are generally good. I guess college kids don't need much to be impressed. Owner/manager is consistently rude and unreasonable. Cash only, and on-site ATM charged my account twice for a single withdrawal. Generally grim and unfriendly staff. I've been here three times and it has been the same story. I don't know how businesses like this can stay open. I guess it's because this area of the city does not really have a lot of options They are always happy to ID you, take your money, and then ask you to leave due to their undersized seating area being at capacity all night. Do yourself a favor and walk 1 minute over to the Little Donkey....or anywhere else. Use your money to support good people and good businesses. I rarely leave reviews, but the review system does not work unless people are honest, frank, and frequent with their feedback.

One of my favorite dives in the Boston area. The Field probably has one of the largest outdoor spaces in Boston making in a go-to destination in the summer. The drinks are cheap, well they're cheap for me because all I drink are $3.5 Narragansett Tall Boys. It's nice having a place in Cambridge where you can get a cheap drink, hangout side and get drunk for $20.The Field is a lost art in how bars operate. Please support their business Cash bar!
