If you're ever hungry before your flight from Hungary, you can get a taste of home at O'Learys, an oddly Boston-themed sports bar inside Budapest's Ferenc Liszt International Airport.

It's covered in Patriots, Celtics, Bruins and Red Sox memorabilia with a menu promising "classics inspired by Boston," but it's just fish and chips and a bunch of typical American bar food.

The only true New England classic on the menu is the Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie.
Of course, the very first chocolate chip cookie was invented in the 1930s by Ruth Wakefield at the Toll House Inn in Whitman.

Zoom in: O'Leary's is a Swedish chain where they say "the vibrant spirit of a Bostonian neighborhood bar meets a modern take on entertainment and dining."

There are dozens of locations across Europe.
