18 Best Beer Bars near Waltham

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

“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!“

“This is the best restaurant on Moody! My wife and I came on a whim when they opened a few years ago. We have been coming almost monthly ever since. The food is fantastic. The variety is incredible. Service and atmosphere wonderful and inviting. And the drink menu is extensive, both in delicious cocktails and a sake list we are still working through to this date. Any time we have friends in town, we bring them to Shiki Shabu Shabu as a treat to ourselves and them. Casual dinner at the bar is fun and groups at tables is an experience. This is what Moody has been missing!“

“Food and service are excellent!“

“Maybe my favorite coffee shop of all time (and I really love coffee shops). Their drip coffee is phenomenal and their espresso is delicious as well. Breakfast sandwich comes on English muffin with avocado and is 9/10. By night, it becomes a brewing company with excellent beer and excellent hazy IPAs. Given that I moved in around the corner, I have been going at least three times per week. LOVE IT.“

“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.“

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

“My friends and I went to try out their trivia and it was an ok experience for that. It’s definitely more of a sports bar that just happens to do trivia weekly. It felt like trivia wasn’t the focus of the hour even though most groups were playing. The host was solid and questions had good variety but the pace was rather slow. For food we ordered some dishes to share and a couple of personal plates and I can say across the board it was really pushing the line of being a bad value. The taste was solid but the small portions were a real disappointment. For example the tacos were so small you could easily finish each of the 3 your given in 2 bites or even 1 with little problem. The atmosphere was energetic and staff were kinda but at the end of the day it’s not for us.“

“Good location in Davis Square“

“We were there early on a Sunday morning and suffered I think from that case of decreased service with few customers overall that can happen when the place isn't very busy. Only three tables when our food came, and five occupied when we left, but after following our food out to say hi, we never saw the waiter again. No drinks refreshed and after we sat for a bit with empty plates, I had to ask another waiter to find our check. We would have lingered more as the food, as always, is delicious, but didn't feel up to keeping track of the waiter.“

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

“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.“

“Came here prior to a night out and so glad we found this place. Quality food and incredible cocktails at a reasonable price. Vibe and service is outstanding. Cassie and Kyle made our nights! Will definitely return any time we’re back in Allston.“

“We recently stayed in Newton for a mini vacation from Canada (visiting Boston). Every night of our stay we ate at this restaurant. I know, not overly adventurous but when the food is this good and the atmosphere is right, why bother looking? You won’t find better! We tried: - Pan seared chicken: AMAZING. - Fish and chips: when you live on the east coast it’s hard to get good fish and chips but these hit the mark! - Filet Mignon: Full of flavour and tender. - Steak Tips: Again, tender and full of flavour. - Risotto: Wonderfully strong mushroom flavour but yet offset with a field of flavours. - Scallops: Seared to perfection. - Short-rib Meatballs: Meat and cheese combo to die for. - Calamari: Another difficult one to get right and find fresh! This was one of my favourite with the dip and hot peppers. - Sirloin: Cooked to perfection, flavour was a hit and a good portion size, well worth the money. THE HOUSE SALAD: All I can say, EMAIL ME THE RECIPE FOR THE DRESSING!! This was the best item for me on the menu. Fresh, simple and full of flavour. I got it with every meal. So to recap: 10/10“

“Vegan premium “fast food” in a hip location.

The menu is vegan I believe and my partner loves it here. They do a creative take on some American favorites. The fries and sauces in my opinion, put this place on the map. My partner loves the veggie dogs and has found a new obsession with the nuggs

The folks at the counter are always friendly. There is absolutely an inclusive vibe and the ambiance is fun.

The space is pretty small but there are some stools and counter space to perch at.

Recommend.“

“Excellent staff, cold beer and stiff drinks but don’t do shots with the 22 year olds at the bar! Fun times at this place!“

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

“Service was incredibly fast & personable. Food was prepared very fast and so fresh that I had to give it a few minutes to cool down. The best part was how exceptionally tasty the food was. My spicy steak tip skewer was cooked to rare perfection with every bite seemingly juicier than the last. My chicken teriyaki rice bowl was also the bee's knees. Prices we very reasonable and quality of our experience was terrific.“
