Girls Night Out in Boston

100 Stuart St, Boston, MA 02116 (map)

Start the festivities with some relaxation and beautification. Bliss Spa, located inside the W Hotel downtown, is no ordinary spa. As if a pedicure wasn't relaxing enough, Bliss allows guests to watch a movie while getting a treatment. What's more, indulge in complimentary tea and brownies pre- and post-treatment. Choose from a full roster of services, including waxing, massages, facials and more.

284 Amory St, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130 (map)

This funky Jamaica Plain spot boasts good food and an even better drink list--two musts for a girls night out in Boston. Food options include thin crust pizza, deviled eggs and fish tacos. While you're waiting for your food, amuse yourselves with the wall-mounted Connect Four and Wii Bowling as well as good old-fashioned pool.

795 Main St, Cambridge, MA 02139 (map)

Cuchi Cuchi wins for a girls night out on account of good food and flashy ambiance. The walls and waitresses are equally funky, both adorned in bright tropical prints with sequins. Gather around a table for a round of small plates. We recommend the Mexican deep-fried tomato with queso blanco, avocado, tomato and salsa or the sizzling garlic shrimp.

50 Dalton Street, Boston, MA 02115 (map)

Whether you were blessed with skills that make you queen of the lanes or you just like sporting the retro shoes, everyone has a reason for bowling. And the best spot is Kings' incredibly roomy space with music that keeps patrons dancing in their bowling shoes. If you happen to (gasp!) not like bowling, there's food and drink as well as newly added shuffleboard and Skee-Ball.

480 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139 (map)

No girls night is complete without some dancing. With four rooms and performance spaces boasting live music every night, the Middle East has tunes that will make all of your friends want to get up and dance. With cheap and sometimes free cover charges, you can save some dough for drinks or a swanky dinner instead.
