Classic old dive, but like really old, from the 1800's - used to be a speakeasy.

I have been working in this neighborhood for SIX years at [redacted art school] and just went here for the first time. It is 132 years old.
That math is pathetic ! much time to make up for. this place is a treasure if you like things like observing the oldest dumbwaiter in NYC, tin ceilings, and old stained glass and wood.
The women’s bathroom still has little makeup stations with mirrors and tables. It‘s very charming.
I’ve also heard something about the urinals but will need a counterpart to report back.
The food and drink don’t matter to me. A beer is a beer everywhere. It was fine. Go for everything else.

Great dive bar that's been around forever. I lived down the street for years when i was in college and did not appreciate it! The slightly older late 20s/30s that hung out there at the time hated me and all my friends for turning 21 and being a mess in there. It wasn't until I left and came back that i realized what had been right there in front of me. Youth wasted yet again. Anyway, they have some 600 whiskies and similar number of beers. They have a ton of special casks that disteraries make just for them. Incredible punk filled jukebox. Iconic. Be sure to have Malört at some point, there or elsewhere, do not google it, just do it.
The River Architecture boat tour is a classic if it's warm enough.
MCA and Art Institute are both worth a visit as well.

Throw on your three piece suit and pocket watch. Prohibition era cocktails in a wonderfully preserved and revamped OG Boston building. Great place to have a drink and a convo.
Warning: may inspire comb in your pocket and no filter cigs.

Just leaving it in my bag or in the other room and feeling that wash of peace being disconnected for a little while. Ahhhhhh.
