“MBC is a great place to hang with different selections of well crafted brews ! Fun, layback atmosphere . The staff is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!“

“Deep Cuts is a great little spot to eat and catch a show. The food is good, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The live space is small and intimate. There’s even a selection of vinyl records available for sale in the taproom!!!! I highly recommend it.“

“3rd brewery of the night before the party and I settled for the Friday Decisions Bitter (on a Friday, too). The bartender was really cool in explaining what the beer can machine does and the nuances of laws surrounded beer. We also liked that there was card games for us to play while we drink. The bitter, was well, bitter. But it was also pretty smooth and I eventually gulped the last few ounces.“

“Went to get lunch when we got to Boston. Was close by our hotel and I love craft beer so was excited to try something local. Split the burger for lunch which was excellent. Tried three different beers and enjoyed each one. They didn’t do flights but do offer small pours so it made it easy to try different brews.

Venue was nice as well and easy to get to in the Seaport area.“

“Attended a class pop event here today and it was fabulous. Beer Selection was awesome.“

“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Widowmaker always has a solid selection, with that comes an amazing seasonal rotation and a few surprises mixed in. I prefer IPAs and Sours and Widowmaker does not disappoint. Dogs are encouraged!“

“We went for the first time today and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We got to try a few things before deciding on what we wanted. Would recommend checking this place out.“

“Mancini Soul Project definitely recommends night shift brewing. the best people, staff and brews!!“

“Excelente experiencia! Recomendado!“

“Good beer, good times and good friends“

“First visit, so we got two of their specialty flights, each containing four small pours of their local beer, chosen especially for summer time. One flight was IPA focused, and had a range of moderate hoppiness, along with one juicy, in-your-face over hopped wonders. The other flight featured a delicious raspberry sour beer, plus an addictive "brewtini" beer cocktail. Service was so friendly and welcoming, and I liked their outdoor beer garden. We brought lunch from a neighborhood restaurant.“

“Great staff, and a great bow market option.

No mandatory tipping like other bow businesses which is great, then you can tip properly and know the tips don’t go to management (mandatory gratuity is not actually ‘gratuity’, but rather a ‘fee’ that management can divert away from staff).

I want to say I love the beer every time, but I would still give the beer 4 stars. Sometimes they really hit the mark with their brews, and I love that they have cocktail options!“

“1.) Earth hour is my favorite beer out of all beers right now

2.) I love this place. They have an awesome outdoor set-up with cornhole, and lots of sunny seating. It's tucked away from the busy streets and there are a few community gardens sprinkled around it. Sometimes the smells from the chocolate factory nearby (I think its called tazo) drift by and its like that moment as a kid when you come in from a crisp fall day and the sun is shining through the window just right and you can see the heat coming off a sweet treat fresh out of the oven. awwwhhh!!! and you've got a cold delicious beer in your hand. I think the reason portico is really able to give me this feeling though is of course the people that work there. I go over pretty regularly so we kinda know each other now. Every time I walk in I'm greeted by the biggest smile from whoever is behind the bar which feels cliche to write, but whatever it still feels good. I've talked to one of the owners a few times, and he's kind and welcoming as well. He was happy to take time to talk about brewing with me, and turns out he lives a few streets over. I never feel rushed and every time I've gone I've had a lovely time. The folks at this place have been so kind to me, and I selfishly hope it continues to do amazing because I like going here and I like their beer. you should go here too.

Cheers,

“Decent variety of beers and all very well made. Tons of chill events too.The thing that keeps bringing me back though- the staff. They have a good feel for the room. They're willing to chat or let you be. Seemingly always striving to be as hospitable as they can.“

“Great beer/seltzers/food, great space, friendly staff!“

“A fantastic family friendly brewery that is truly owner operated, and always a delight. Twisted Fate has been my go-to brewery for the past two years, serving up a variety of fantastic beers.“

“Very good pizza! Happy to add that fifth star when you guys give more options for toppings.

Thanks for your response. I good start would be hamburger & pineapple and some of the other toppings that the food truck has.“

“They have some really good beers, they have some other drinks one was a Pina colada it was delicious no idea what it was. It was a cold rainy day so hard to find a comfortable place to relax, they should have more comfortable seating inside.“

“It was a great vibe !! I’m not a beer drinker but these were amazing !! Loved the food, bartenders were friendly and food was delicious !!!“

“I attended Dr. Daniel Breen's Tavern Talk at the Aeronaut Brewing Company and learned a lot!

Thank you for a safe environment to increase my neuroplasticity in Nov 2024. Your staff was very friendly and the Art of the Somerville Museum was beautiful. I appreciate that you hosted this interesting & mind opening event.“

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

“Great beer and outdoor space“

“Casual venue for drinks. Was quiet in a snowy Saturday. Large selection of beers and one cocktail in a can. Some diversions for kids (basketball, some board games). Large slice of tasteless pizza. No parking (altho it was so quiet that we grabbed an employee parking spot).“

“Great venue! I recently hosted a birthday at Common Craft and it was a hit! The option of different taps offering local beers, wines, and spirits make it the perfect place for all! Food was also great and the event coordinator worked with me to curate the perfect menu. Would highly recommend Common Craft to anyone looking for an event space.“

“Visited this location for the first time yesterday before a show at MGM! I go to the Waltham location quite often. Mike, Dre, and John were great at the bar. I'll make sure to stop in before the shows I'm going to rest of this year! A+“

“Perfect cider with no carbonation or added sugar. Love it!“

“Lovely bierhall with indoor and outdoor options when it’s warm out. I came here on a Saturday afternoon and it was relaxed and cozy. This seems like a nice spot to meet up with friends, and they have a small kitchen across the way for snacks (along with other options at the Speedway). The blood orange radler was tasty and they even had board games in the corner.

This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.“

“Very well made beer, nice diversity in styles (NEIPA, sour, stout and even a couple N/As) Relaxing atmosphere.“

“Lively, local craft brewery with a large selection of delicious beers. Really friendly, helpful staff. Saturday night was a mostly young crowd. Particularly appreciated the option to sample beers before buying. Also loved the Create Your Own Flight of any four beers.“

“We had the Biria chicken tacos, ordered a 2nd round cuz they were so good! I had a strawberry margarita - was delicious. Vibe was great around 1100 after a concert at the House of Blues. Will def be back !“
