    Hotel guests, residents and Boston locals alike can lounge in the bar lodged in the W Boston's lobby (referred to as a living room), with the space anchored by plush seating, a modern fireplace and a sleek sculptural waterfalls.

  2. 2 The Reagle Beagle

    308 Harvard St, Brookline, MA 02446 (map)

    From the kids who brought you Church Restaurant & NIghtclub, the Reagle Beagle soups up a lovely-though-early-to-bed Coolidge Corner neighborhood with a killer drink list (including the "Old Landlord," a twist on an Old-Fashioned) and lunch, dinner & brunch--yes, those certainly are crab rangoon empanadas.

  3. 3 Lord Hobo

    92 Hampshire St, Cambridge, MA 02139 (map)

    Filling the large, beloved shoes of the late B-Side Lounge, Lord Hobo attempts to woo the neighbors and the tipple trendsetters alike with an extensive list of wine, beer and kookily named cocktails, plus a rib-sticking British-inspired gastropub menu.

  4. 4 Trina's Starlite Lounge
    Write a review

    3 Beacon St, Somerville, MA 02143 (map)

    The retro-cheeky yet neighborhoody feel of Trina's in Inman Square exudes the solid bartending and comfort food skills of the owners, whose breadth of experience spans from Silvertone to City Bar to Highland Kitchen. Go for gravy fries and a slick cocktail fix.
