21 Best Beer Bars near Waltham

“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!“

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

“Great food, reasonably priced!“

“Food and service are excellent!“

“Really good beer, fairly priced, good service and amicable clientele. Sure, my small pour of stout could have been served with less head but maybe the keg was about to kick it? Either way, I was very happy with my selection of beers and had some great conversations with other patrons who were all regulars and love beer. Would definitely recommend.“

“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 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“

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

“Came here with our small group. Service was wonderful. Beer selections - Awesome. I went with the Staff's Selection Beer Flight - it didn't miss! We shared the blue cheese burger, which was cooked perfectly and a Ceasar Salad. The later was good, but different. I've never had a Ceasar with olives and hard boiled egg. Will definitely be back!“

“Good location in Davis Square“

“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.“

“Los Sugar Kings were fantastic, and the atmosphere at Lou’s was excellent. The music and overall vibe honestly made up for most of the experience, and I would definitely come back.

Unfortunately, our service from Nicole was the weak point of the night. She repeatedly checked in every few minutes asking if we were ready to order, which started to feel pushy rather than attentive. Later, she dropped off the check and, when she came back and saw that I hadn’t put my card down yet, she visibly expressed frustration.

It was only around 9 PM and the night was still getting started, so there really didn’t seem to be any need to make us feel rushed. Instead of being able to relax and enjoy the evening, I found myself feeling anxious, like I needed to hurry so our server wouldn’t get annoyed.

That aside, Los Sugar Kings were great and the atmosphere was excellent, which is why I’m still giving Lou’s four stars.“

“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.“

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

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

“3.8 rating is criminal...4.4 at least! Ordering both food and beverages is as soon as many other places, however, where do you know what time you get your drinks much quicker here than most. The beer selection is on point and the staff is always current on what's available or 86'd. Bonus it's great to show up here when there's a band playing next door.“

“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“

“The place had a great ambiance, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The food was exceptional – I tried the pizza, pasta, and salad, and each dish was delicious. The pizza had a perfect crust and flavorful toppings, the pasta was cooked to perfection, and the salad was fresh and crisp. I highly recommend this restaurant for a delightful dining experience.“

“Wow! I am no vegetarian but this place is great! The impossible burger was great and the fries were delicious (especially the dill pickle sauce). I'm gonna have to try other sauces next time!
Located in Bow Market so the courtyard is super nice in the summer.“

“Honestly a really nice place. The food was good I just didn’t think it was that special! The service was great! I do hate when a tip is automatically added but we were 4 adults and 2 kids so understandable! The guacamole was not anything special! The Mexican corn was pretty good! We had a margarita pitcher and I will say they were generous with the tequila which was great!

I would stop by again if I was in the area!“

“Stayed in Brookline for the week and ended up here by happenstance my first night there. One of the best pubs I’ve ever been to and some of the best food I’ve had in a long time! A big shoutout to Greg’s mom for the beef stew🤌 Whether you’re there for a great pint, to catch a game, or just some good craic, Hamilton’s is the place to be. I’d fly back to Boston in a heartbeat just to eat here again.“
