Boston’s Indie Music Venues Are Disappearing - Eater Boston

"Atwood’s, a revered bar, restaurant, and music venue, will shut its doors this month after 16 years, signaling yet another significant loss among the community-centered stages that bolster Boston’s musicians. It was known for highlighting a wide range of music on its stage, including folk, Americana, bluegrass, roots, blues, and rock. Menu items showcased New England producers, including a burger with beef sourced from a farm in western Massachusetts, and chocolate pudding featuring Somerville-based chocolatier Taza. The bar kept a solid rotating draft list with sought-after regional pints, like Hill Farmstead and Lawson’s Finest Liquids. Owners Patrick and Ryan Magee built a loyal following, and Atwood’s was known as a cozy bohemian hub in East Cambridge." - Jennifer Henry

Atwood’s Tavern - Review - East Cambridge - Boston - The Infatuation

"We have more Irish pubs in this town than in all of Ireland [ed. note: probably not true], so any one of them in particular really has to do something special to get noticed. Atwood’s in East Cambridge does three special things: it frequently has live music, it has a great selection of craft beer, and it’s got a patio out back that probably looks much better than your backyard (no offense). The food is pretty standard bar stuff, but you’ll never regret grabbing a beer by the potted plants out back." - Dan Secatore

Our family went here to celebrate 2 birthdays this October. The service was very good & the food was delicious! The sweet potato fries were the best I have ever eaten. We ordered a beef burger, blue fish sandwich & a turkey burger( pictured) & drinks. Definitely would like to eat here again!

Great beer selection. They have high quality local, regional, national, and global beers on tap. I Love the beautiful patio in the back! Feels like a hidden little Oasis in the city

Ok, this is a very specific, very unique review. I love this place but its because its unique and unlike many other locations, and super unique for photographing small to medium weddings. It is a wonderful mix of comfort meets grungy meets modern and simple. I have photographed two weddings here and had a great time. That is mainly because the space fits the personality of both couples I photographed. They offer 3 pretty incredible AirBNB spaces upstairs for wedding couples as well. Check it out if you dig an alternative semi Bohemian style for your city wedding.

They did a great job renovating the inside, still feels the same but better made. The outside is still the bomb. They have a fully functional/heated bathroom that is only for the outdoor seating! Best outdoor seating in Greater Boston!

Super cool outdoor space that has Saturday beer garden for the summer. Inside there is live music not to mention cool bartenders. Must visit with your friends.

I went to the Atwood Tavern tonight for the first time to see Hazel Royer & Ira Klein. They played a nice mix of folky classics with a hint of jazz. The music was top notch and the musicianship was excellent (including a special guest on lap steel and lead guitar. The sound engineer did a great job with the mix and volume, the staff at the door and the host/wait staff were professional and kind. I had the Udon Noodles, which tasted good, but a little over salted. Overall a fantastic night, great music, and a great bar / venue.

Best fish tacos and the best live music. Tonight: Katie Henry Band is blowing me away. Amazing servers and atmosphere, perfect for some good music and good vibes.
