10 Best Bars in Brookline

“I'm desperate to get back to Barlette! It's ALWAYS a wonderful experience. I feel like I'm transported into a beautiful movie with all my favorite actors! Plus I get so many compliments and interested inquiries when I wear my fab Barlette rose shirt!“

“I enjoyed the food and drinks very much they did run out of 2 menu items we were looking forward to ordering but Natalia our server was able to make other recommendations and she was able to accommodate a different table that wasn't next to the door.“

“This place is very authentic! We enjoyed the spicy miso ramen. The noodles were nice and chewy, the broth was very creamy and flavorful. I had just the right amount of toppings. We can tell they put a lot of love into the food. Definitely recommended!“

“Great please save service“

“Wonderful food and amazing service. We highly recommend the Washington Square Tavern. The best in the neighborhood!“

“It’s sad that my very first time here, was the final day of AYCE. The quality of food for AYCE was higher than some places where you pay for each ingredient. The new lunch set that they are replacing AYCE with, is still a lot of food at a reasonable price.

The staff were all so nice, and accommodating of my friend’s peanut allergy. Any questions we had about the food were easily answered, and the hand pulled noodles were out of this world.

Meat-wise I would recommend spicy beef to anyone who likes normal beef dipped in spicy broth, because the marinated beef kept its flavor in the non spicy broth as well.

You could also be a vegetarian and be very happy here with the options. The fried bean curd was very nice.

The ginger ice cream was also good.“

“Had excellent food and service for a late lunch on Saturday. Staff were friendly and the environment was welcoming“

“The restaurant is mix of bar seatings and regular seating. Interior is clean and neat. Server is very welcoming and friendly. I ordered their lamb skewer and Lanzhou beef noodle. The beef was juicy and tender. Noodle was soft and al dente. Not easily get soggy. Broth was hearty and rich. Lamb skewers aren’t gamey. Definitely a nice comforting dishes they serve here. Will definitely come back!!!“

“Had an amazing experience at Punch Bowl! Our bartender, Leury, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and professional. The La Morra Morra cocktail was absolutely delicious and definitely one of the highlights of the night. Leury made great recommendations and made us feel welcome from start to finish. Great drinks, great service, and a great atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back!“
