What People Are Saying About Sunset Grill

The Editor

Eric Grossman

Citysearch

The Scene – With 112 beers on tap and almost 400 more available by the bottle, the Sunset's beer selection knows no rival in the area. Beer snobs sample obscure seasonal microbrews, while area youths stop by for affordable grub and a casual, upbeat scene. Booths and tables in the downstairs dining room are perfect for groups, many of which celebrate special occasions with half yards of beer. – – The Food – Once patrons finish perusing the 12-page beer menu, they face an equally daunting task: Choosing from the plethora of affordable snacks, sandwiches and entrees…

Surprisingly good food

by candy13cr

I have been to Sunset a few times for drinks - always a good selection of beer as they are known for and a good crowd. I recently ordered food and was pleasantly surprised, for a bar, the food was good quality and prepared nicely. Would definitely recommend Sunset for both drinks and DINNER!

Just a perfect local bar...(don't tell anyone)

by dominiquegravelkim

This bar is your perfect neighborhood bar but not in any ordinary kind of way...The combination of many good things comes together nicely every time...The beer list is extensive and international, the food is surprisingly high qualty and the bartenders truly know their stuff when it comes to beers and making good recommendations, even depending on your mood. You just feel comfortable when you walk in, there's a lively atmosphere with lots on the walls and tvs placed high and discretely showing the main game of the day without overkill...The bar has 2 nicely-spread-out levels so it's rarely hard to find a seat (except let's face it on a peak Sat. pm, then you just get a table!). You can go with 2 friends or 10, or even alone to chill after along day at work, and you'll always walk out happier, or at least, a little more relaxed to face the craziness of the world outside!

BEER, BEER, BEER!

by connmanapk

Im originally from outside of Boston, but now go to college in Connecticut. I therefore feel its important to make the most of my trips to the city, and this usually includes a trip to Sunset. Everytime I've been there's space for me and some friends at the bar, the bartenders are friendly, the beer selection is AMAZING, and the food (although not exceptional) is well priced for Boston. The staff there is knowledgable and were great helpin me choose some microbrews that fit my tastes (personally a Lager guy). The Atmosphere there is really upbeat, and comfortable. I would say the only downsides are that they close fairly early and that parking is tough to come by on weekends. But the hike is worth it if you are looking for a place with good beer, good people, and a great atmosphere.

  • Pros: Beer, prices, atmosphere
  • Cons: close fairly early, parking
