Whether they’re pregaming for the Celtics or killing time before a concert, Porters is a favorite stopover for Garden guests. After all, its strong, straightforward American pub fare, in particular a wide array of juicy burgers, helps to sop up the suds tipped back in final-period celebration. And in defeat? Well, nothing soothes the wounds like a warm bar stool, a cold beer and neighbors who know your pain.
