Atlantic Beer Garden - Fun on the Waterfront!


Sick of the same old scene at Tia's on a warm summer night? We are too! That is why we finally ventured out to The Atlantic Beer Garden. Here you can expect to find a fab menu, great music, cheaper and larger beer selections, and a loud and lively crowd almost every night of the week!

HINT: Enjoy dinner on the waterfront paired with a killer live reggae band every Sunday from 5:30pm-9:30pm.

The Harpoon Brewery - Tastings and Tours!


The Harpoon Brewery is a great and different idea for a pre-dinner cocktail or just to liven up a boring afternoon! Every Monday-Friday they have tastings at 2:00pm and 4:00pm. The best part is that all tastings are FREE! Weekend tours run from 11:30am every half hour on Saturday until 5:00pm and from 12pm to 5pm again on Sunday. The cost of weekend tours are just $5.00.

During the brewery tours, they will take you down under to watch all of the beer making in action. The Harpoon Brewery also throws several parties each year that you don't want to miss! Check out the pictures from their St. Patrick's Day festival last year.

HINT: Did you taste something that you love? No worries! They will fill up a 64 oz jug of your favorite brew to take home. We loved the new UFO White!

The weekend has arrived, and it's decision time. The question is, do you want to go to a club or a bar? Well, we have good news: Boston finally offers the best of both worlds! Johnnie's on the Side offers a great and may we add HUGE bar scene on the main floor. However this hot spot also provides a lounge/club experience on their lower level complete with cocktail tables and a VIP lounge experience!

Woodward and The Ames - Ooh la la!


The Ames Hotel is an absolute beauty! The ambiance is breathtaking, the nightlife vibrant, and the family style menu at Woodward is perfect for group dining. The chic eatery turns into a happening two floor bar scene past 11pm. Think NYC Meatpacking meets Classic Boston. This hot spot is definitely buzzing around town, and we can see why!

HINT: Their weekend Brunch is also FAB and is served until 3pm!

Tapas, Belly Dancing, Hookah and more - Tangierino's!


Tangierino, a Moroccan restaurant sits on a adorable street in Charlestown. Everything we ordered off the menu was a delight. Try the grilled skewers of chicken, tagine of Moroccan style risotto with summer squash, baby green peas, caramelized onions, coconut milk-curry sauce, and parmesan $23. Or order off their full Tapas menu for a lighter fare served from 5pm-Midnight daily.

If you are yet to be sold, after 10pm, the lights dim, the candles are lit, the belly dancers arrive, the music turns up and you and your party can move downstairs to enjoy hookah, drinks, cigars, dancing on tables and more in little alcoves and cozy lounges. This is a true hidden gem in Boston!

HINT: Try our favorite cocktail, The Drunken Camel: Woodford Reserve, peach purée, peach bitters, fresh sour, fresh lemon.

Stage fright not welcomed - Lansdowne Pub Karaoke


Aside from the oh so popular weekend nights at The Lansdowne Pub, they have started a pretty cool Thursday evening experience for all of you Bostonian's. Every Thursday, one of our favorite Pub's, hosts a Kareoke night. This is not your average Kareoke experience though, since you will be singing front stage with a live band (The Jukebox Heroes).

HINT: This night is always packed and gets pretty wild, so we suggest you get there before 10pm if you want to perform!

The weather is warm - Take a trip to SPLASH!

I have to be honest, we weren't sure what to expect from the new lounge/club Splash, previously known as News. However SPLASH Boston happens to host one hell of a night out! With two floors of dancing, a fabulous DJ playing everything from electro to old school, and a rooftop lounge and pool, you really can't help but have a blast!

HINT: Chef Gianni Caruso creates mouth watering specialty gourmet burgers from crab to pulled pork, just ask for their burger bar menu!

The Enormous Room - A Cambridge hot spot!

The Enormous Room in Cambridge is quite the opposite of its name. The cozy and intimate lounge/club always promises a great dance party. This seems to be the place where no rules apply and the crowd is always ready to party! Dancing on tables, couches and more...anything goes.

HINT: Their website has a monthly schedule of upcoming DJ's from reggae to electro, so check it out and have fun!

Underbar - Underrated?


The world is mine…or at least I think it is when I am on the dance floor at Underbar. This club has 2 rooms downstairs, a lounge on the main entrance and a smaller intimate club upstairs that is known for its international and Greek nights. With the loudest base in town, wild crowd and always packed dance floor, this is the place to be on Saturday nights for Boston's club scene.


HINT: Boston French Party, a group known for throwing killer themed parties have taken over Underbar many times and promise an unforgettable night. Often included in the mix, famous DJ Jean Michel NYC who opened for David Guetta in Boston this past winter.

The Dise, rocking Boston for over 30 years


Amongst many great music venues in Boston such as The Middle East, The Toad, Zu Zu, and more, lies The Paradise Rock club. From the sound, to the crowd, The Dise is still the King in our eyes. The March and April line-up alone includes some of our favorites like The Donna's, Drug Rug, and Nada Surf.

This unique venue allows for big name bands to come back to their roots and play in an intimate setting and rock the house like only Boston knows how.

HINT: They make their drinks solid, so slow your roll, remember were not all rock stars. Tickets range from $10.00-$35.00
