The Rising - Review - Cambridge - Boston - The Infatuation

"With frequent live music, a hidden whiskey bar in the back, and a menu that includes steamed mussels, you wouldn’t guess this Inman Square spot is a sports bar. But once you’re in the dining room, you’ll find a TV roughly the size of a highway billboard that’s always got the game on." - Dan Secatore

Great time. I had the friday special which was stuffed shells with a glass of wine for $13, which is a great deal because the entree is usually $13 by itself. I would go again to try the other specials.

A lovely Irish bar with Oyster happy hours from 5-7. Good food, good environment and service.

Great Irish bar that always serves up good libations, and has great screens for any soccer match. The staff are extremely friendly and the food was better than I even expected! They do brunch on the weekends and I highly recommend the Rising burger

Legitimately the best buffalo wings I have ever had. I would happily come here and order nothing but wings. They were so tender they basically fell apart in my hands, and the sauce and texture are absolutely 100% perfect. Whoever is back there making these wings is a national treasure. The beer selection is great, but all that really matters is that you should come here and put these wings in your face. Edit: As of 1/1/2017 they've changed their menu, and their food isn't as good, but the wings still hold up the 5-star rating on their own.

Always end up here for a Liverpool game. Phoenix Landing can get quite full fairly early, but we always manage to find a space at The Rising. The fries and nacho plate are good and so is the burger. Place is never too crowded and has good atmosphere.
