You develop a powerful thirst walking around Boston in the summertime. This is an excellent spot to quench that thirst with a frosty beverage like I did for the first time in 1993 and again today waiting for a delayed flight while watching France defeat Paraguay. The surrounding area is much different than it was in the 90s, but the bar has not changed and is still a swell place to wet your whistle on a hot day.
Best dive bar in Boston. And I endorse another review's mentioning the Clash!
I came to The Tam for the first time and I can just say that I loved it, the lady at the bar… OMG, suck a sweetheart, so kind and friendly person, we need more people like her in this planet! I would definitely come back again!!!

The Tam is a well-known local dive bar in Boston, famous for its lively and energetic atmosphere. It is a popular gathering spot for friends, offering reasonably priced drinks, including the beloved Guinness and cider. The bar has kept its original charm over the years, making it a cherished place for many. Described as the best dive bar in town, The Tam is praised for its good strong drinks and no-nonsense attitude. Located near Chinatown, it is easily accessible for those taking the orange line T. The drinks flow cheaply, and the bar’s charm lies in its grit rather than glamor. While the restroom may be a bit rough, the overall experience is memorable, with good banter from bartenders and a relaxed vibe. The Tam remains a classic, unchanged gem in the constantly changing city, providing a casual and straightforward bar experience for both locals and visitors alike.
