Intimate cocktail bar offering seasonal drinks & bar snacks
"A standalone bar located inside the Arcade Building that offers a more curated, reservation-driven experience compared with most neighborhood spots, which typically operate as bars within restaurants." - Celina Colby
"Barlette started with a bit of a curveball — its origins were as a BYOB bar — but it has since become a full-fledged cocktail bar, with no personal bottles of gin required. Try classics like the Negroni or Manhattan on tap, or go for a seasonal concoction like the Toasted Coconut S’mores Hot Chocolate, a decadent cocktail that features coconut fluff made in-house, honey graham crackers, and a drinker’s choice of bourbon, rum, or a spirit-free amaretto as the base." - Erika Adams
"Okay, you do have to bring your own booze to this particular cocktail bar. But stay with us: Barlette, from the team behind the tiny, award-winning tasting menu spot Cobble in Brookline, is quite the interactive cocktail experience. The bar supplies all the mixers, tools, and garnishes, and then, with the help of a knowledgeable bartender, you can mix your own drinks that are fine-tuned to your preferences. Each pre-paid ticket includes mixers and all the glasses, ice, garnishes, and mixing tools you need. Bar snacks are available on a small food menu, or bring your own takeout to the bar." - Erika Adams, Eater Staff
"I observed that Barlette, the quirky BYOB cocktail bar located downstairs from Cobble, remains open while Cobble takes its gap year." - Erika Adams
"A tiny cocktail bar in Brookline where customers bring their own booze to the party has just opened, offering a compact BYOB cocktail experience." - Erika Adams
