Where To Eat And Drink In Southie - Boston - The Infatuation

"There are three types of bars in Southie: (1) well-worn pubs that have been the setting of an Affleck movie and are now patronized by a mix of older people and recent grads from Sharon who think that drinking in a place with Keno makes them honorary members of the Winter Hill Gang, (2) the big meat market restaurant bars on Broadway where at least 14 people lose their phones every night, and (3) GrandTen. This garage bar/distillery is neither a place where scally caps are required, nor somewhere that doubles as live-action Tinder - it’s just a chill place to come and drink great cocktails. Everything that ends up in your glass is made on site, there are comfortable old couches and weird portraits of Maggie Gyllenhaal, and if you get bored, you can hit up the foosball table or play a little Mortal Kombat. It’s the best place to grab a drink in Southie." - dan secatore
