42 Best Beer Bars near Jamaica Plain

“The food is delicious! It is a small cafe/shop and the seating is nice but seems to be more take out and just a small shop for fresh seafood or take away.

The lobster sliders with lobster bisque was excellent. Nice big pieces of meat, buttery roll, not too much sauce. The lobster bisque was creamy but not too thick. Lots of flavor and good oyster crackers.

Friendly people.“

“Food and service are excellent!“

“So happy they opened in the Seaport area.“

“Simulators are legit and it feels like you are outside playing on the actually course you've selected. It's a nice vibe and a great bar to watch games or golf on and the pizza is amazing. (get the sweet heat, it wont disappoint) They also offer leagues and spots for parties/events. If you're looking for a spot to work on your game this winter, grab a beer and watch some sports I highly recommend Birdie Bar!“

“I don't go to bars much these days but came here for a live music event, the Nirvana tribute band and this place is awesome. The place LOOKS amazing, they had sports playing on a bunch of tvs the food was PHENOMENAL, you order and they text you when it's ready that was pretty wild to me, and the best part of all the amazing staff that was so friendly to me and my family members. Would highly recommend, the concert was AWESOME and would definitely come here again. Really memorable night. THANK YOU“

“First time there the food was great would recommend to anyone who is in Boston.“

“An awesome place. I went there for a movie night and tried their beer, their lager was really good. I stopped by again today just to pick up my credit card and was pleasantly surprised to see that in the morning they serve coffee and have breakfast options as well.“

“Lots of fun it was a great time“

“Excellent food and brilliant staff. Turned a bad experience of being stranded due to a cancelled flight into a much brighter evening.“

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.“

“We booked the private dining area and had a great experience. Service was great and we were not rushed at all. Food and drinks were good and the overall booking process with Zoey was easy and transparent.“

“Went there for lunch and did not disappoint! Highly recommend the Lobster Bisque, best I’ve had in a very long time.“

“Everything was great! Service and food was excellent!“

“I just Love the New Republic great atmosphere amazing food great drinks beautiful vibe“

“Wonderful food and great service in an amazing setting!“

“The perfect neighborhood spot. All the food tastes fresh and prepared well. Bartender was operating a drone at the bar and hit me in the eye, blinding me permanently. Other than that great experience can’t wait to come with friends and family“

“There are not enough stars to give! This is our favorite restaurant. Period full stop.

The food is excellent - we have never had anything we did not love. With evolving menus and new items it always feels fresh.

The service is impeccable. The kindest most attentive and thoughtful waitstaff and bartenders. The people here really make the place.

Thoughtfully designed with cozy lighting and a fantastic bar the ambience checks all the boxes.

A beyond wonderful neighborhood spot that never gets old - we frequent Dotty's and hope to for many years to come.“

“I killed some time here while my daughter was at a concert next door. I just had a mocktail, which was tasty, and I appreciated that they had several mocktail options listed on the drink menu. I was a little hungry, but none of the food sounded especially good and seemed a little overpriced, so I just stuck with my drink and grabbed a bite later.
It was a Friday night, and they were doing karaoke. The karaoke dj cut my song off less than halfway in, which was a first for me at karaoke, but maybe I'm just a much worse singer than I realized lol. It was still fun and a nice way to kill some time.
It seems like they have fun ongoing special events as well as some game tables. I think this would be a fun place to grab a drink with friends or come after a concert.“

“I had my Daughter’s bridal shower at the Long Cross. The staff were so helpful and accommodating. The venue provided linens and flowers for the tables. We had complete use of the back part of the restaurant and patio. They allowed us to set up a balloon arch and backdrop for pictures, and several tables for displays and games. The food was great and the price was reasonable. I would recommend having your party or shower there.“

“This was a catering experience with Blackstrap for a department holiday party. Melissa worked closely with us to ensure that we had the right amount of food and menu for our luncheon. Payment was easy and the pricing very reasonable. The delivery was made by the chef himself and they set up everything with care. The food was fantastic and everyone absolutely raved about the cornbread (that is something that should absolutely be added/included with any order). All around a wonderful experience and a highly recommended caterer.“

“My colleague and I dropped in for a bite during a work trip, and we couldn’t have been happier with the food, beer, and service. The bartender, Liam, made our tough travel day so much better. Next time I’m in town, I’m making it a priority to stop here. Keep up the amazing work!!“

“Great open space with a patio area and a rooftop area. The craft brews are great and the charcuterie options were spot on.“

“500 Ocean is a beautiful property with some amazing amenities. It is in a great location, surrounded by ocean views, restaurants and very accessible to the T, literally right below the building. My husband and I had a great experience living here and had rarely any issues. The main issue we had at move-in was addressed and we were even offered a small gift for the inconvenience. I love the maintenance staff and they are always so pleasant and helpful. One of my favorite parts of living here was having an in-house fitness coach/ personal trainer- Cienna Jade! She is so amazing to work with and has really helped me along my fitness journey. It was so convenient having her come to the 500 Ocean gym, which is one of the best gyms I've seen in an apartment home. She conducts 1 on 1 sessions and will literally work with you on scheduling a time that's convenient for you as well as offering group or couple sessions! Overall, very pleasant experience!“

“Great food, reasonably priced!“

“I love wicked craft ❤️! I love decoration ! they’re all so kind and they make the best cocktails“

“Four Piece Suit is what makes it worth visiting! We have been following them since the 90s, when they were playing music in Tam O’Shanter pub in Brookline, MA. They gathered a huge crowd the day we saw them for the first time. We were fortunate to get in the pub because they were so famous.“

“Really love coming to this place for weekend brunch + live music! The so-called ‘vip’ tables have minimum of $50 per person, but the table is so low that it’s hard to eat.. do the regular tables if possible. Their focaccia is good and other food decent as well. Wish they had more shareables.“

“My wife and I popped into Ducali's before a weeknight Celts game for just a bite to eat, but we found much more. There was excitement and positivity as we walked through the door, escaping the cold evening winds from Boston Harbor.

After we grabbed the last 2 seats at the bar, a simple paper menu appeared, letting us know we're at a no frills spot that puts their money into their product. The open prep station & ovens provided a great view of both the chefs and the materials they used.

A house salad and a pizza for one was plenty for us to split before a cold walk to The Garden. The salad was light, tangy and maybe a touch too sweet, while the pizza was fresh and perfect. Just what we hoped for at the moment.

The crowd in the room was fun and lively, engaging discussions taking place usu over large pans of elevated pizzas. Good communal conversations and politeness as the tables were close requiring further cooperation.

Both of us thought this little shop was punching above it's weight in order to make.it at this location. GREAT job!!“

“A very cool dive bar of the highest order. Oldschool (Cash Only!), cool bartender (sorry I forgot your name, dude - 09/11), with a great jukebox for good measure. If you want to avoid the hipster joints, give them your money!“

“never had a bad bite here. Their ramen is killer. Tiny place, but worth waiting for a table!“

“We enjoyed a quiet lunch here on a winter Monday. The food was good, with a reasonably priced lunch deal. The service was nice, but the food came out in a couple of stages and one person in our party had already started eating the food intended for another one of us. So two folks ate food they did not order (luckily the person with food allergies was not affected). Maybe that's on the first diner's etiquette, but it could also help if the food deliverers knew who ordered what.“

“Good soups, salads, and sandwiches here. I like the Caesar salad (sometimes I’ll add chicken), the burger, and fries. I’ll sometimes get a drink here as well and there’s a great speakeasy connected to them as well. Solid hotel bar. I do think they could have more TVs but sometimes they’ll put out a second I think when sports games are on. Since they renovated, the place looks good!“

“I give this restaurant 5 stars ⭐️ We actually came here to the Four points Sheraton hotel because my husband has doctors appointments nearby. The reason for the five stars is first the ambience of the restaurant was on point and comfortable not to pretentious . We were met by the hostess and she said we could sit wherever we wanted as it was a Monday evening (early ) We started with a Guinness for my husband and I wanted a red wine . The waitress recommended a wine that was very popular Valentines evening and I wanted a Malbec . She brought me a sampler of both and then decided to go with a Cabernet on the menu and thanked her for her recommendation. We started out with the wings that were cooked to perfection along with a mesquite bbq sauce . My husband and I both ordered the Bishop Burgers . He ordered it medium well with Swiss cheese and regular fries and I ordered mine medium with Cheddar and their specialty Rosemary fries which were heavenly . This restaurant is part of the restaurant but separate. It’s a well known restaurant in the neighboring city where all walks of life go to . Jeff the owner also came by to say hello and to make sue everything was to our satisfaction. A+ all around“

“Definitely will go back. Very good food and a nice selection, generous portions. Steak was done perfectly and the fried appetizer was fresh and not greasy. It was a slow night, so I really appreciate that the food was still great. Very pleasant waiter, kind and checked in with us just the right amount. We ate outside.“

“Food was great, server was good, p price reasonable. The only they had overhead fans running and it was cold inside the restaurant. However all of the service and staff were wearing short sleeves. So it must have been hot near the kitchen. I would definitely go back.“

“(Translated by Google) The best place in the chelsea area. A friendly environment to spend with your friends, partner, or a hunting night. If you visit the city of Chelsea, you cannot miss going through the hottest bar in the Latinos Falcon area. Good music and a 100% Latino atmosphere.(Original)El mejor lugar en el área de chelsea.

“I had the opportunity to enjoy lomo saltado and chicharrón with tostones at "El Kiosko." The flavor combination was exceptional, highlighting the juiciness of the lomo and the crispness of the chicharrón. The presentation was impeccable, and each bite reflected the attention to detail in the kitchen. I definitely give it a 5/5. A highly recommended culinary experience.

“Even on a busy New Year's Eve, The Fed delivers great food in a welcoming atmosphere. On a very very cold night, formally-dressed grouos mixed with pajama-clad hotel guests, Each enjoyed a good selection of food and drinks- from kids cheese toasties to braised ribs with parsnip purée, roast carrots , arctic char, and grilled salmon with succotash- and no one seemed out of place. we miss the fish and chips, but we're consoled by the new and seasonal cocktails, and mesmerized by the bartenders who are beyond compare.“

“Good location in Davis Square“

“Great food and drinks! Our waitress Christen was very friendly and attentive. We’ll be back!“

“Great music, great food and the perfect late night atmosphere!“
