The menu was super creative and the dark, hidden atmosphere made it feel like a really unique experience. That being said, after waiting over three hours and hearing so much hype about this place, I think my expectations were a little too high and it didn't completely live up to them. Still a cool bar and worth experiencing at least once, but I personally wouldn't wait that long again! Definitely recommend coming early if you want to check it out without spending half your night waiting.

This hidden gem in the back alleys of Boston will have you questioning your decisions!…read more After a little search we finally found Hecates layer! There was a two hour wait, so we put our name on the list around 730 and this wait was true to the time for a 930 seating This is like walking into an underground layer with candle lit tables. There are only about 10-15 tables, making this the perfect intimate date night or friends night out Big shout out to Jewel the bartender and the staff! We had bar seats, so we had all the action right in front of us. Drink after drink, she meticulously crafted each and every drink with passion and poise and the bar boy topped off waters like it was magic. I started off with the Night March which was a blend of Stiggins' Fancy Pineapple, Kuleana Hawaiian Agricole, and Ten to One rums, toasted coconut, jade oolong & caramelized pineapple soda, salted guava foam. Fused with carbonation, this gold sparkly drink was mesmerizing and very fruity and delicious. I loved the guava foam!! My wife got Snake oil which was vodka, gin, eucalyptus, buckwheat, cedar smoke and tobacco bitters. This drink was earthy and smoky with nodes of the forest The drinks were pretty strong, so we ordered the chips and dip which was spicy feta and crispy pita chips. It was not spicy but it was very good. We stayed about 2 hours, which flew by! A great time and I can't wait to come back. Oh and the menu has a secret feature!! Blacklight stories in every page!! Very interactive I love it!

They just changed the menu for menu recently so I didn't get to try the kids got moxie so I opted for the code 99. Code 99 is very good, I love the chartreuse and mezcal. Smooth drinking with the old school prohibition flare. Although it's an old police department, you don't get that feel. Very relaxed, kick back your feet kind of vibe.

I came here on a Sunday morning right when they opened so luckily there were no crowds at the bar or obstructing the views. I didn't see a food menu but drinks were small and expensive. I know everything in the city is expensive but this was straight-up robbery; over $20 per tiny drink and absolutely not worth the price. I'd recommend coming here to get some pictures, but definitely eat/drink elsewhere unless you have boatloads of money to burn! :(

I made a reservation for a table and was told to check in at the hostess stand. We were standing there for a while before someone finally came to seat us. There were also multiple groups that had been waiting. The food reminded me of frozen food. It came out room temperature and was not very good. The drinks were decent. Overall, everything was pricey for what it was.

The bar snacks are awesome, and the drinks are always on point! I was there last Thursday and had an especially great time. A new bartender (a BU student) was there, and the playlist he had going was on point--it really set the mood. The bartenders are always great, but this night felt extra special. It wasn't too busy because of the rainy weather, so we just hung out and vibed to the music.

Went here before a concert... cool little hole in the wall place!…read more My drink was excellent. service was prompt, place was small. I'd say it's probably 15 seats on a wrap-around bar or so, with a few outdoors and a few by the window. Chandeliers galore. Not my style though, and the chairs all had pretty scratched-up leather. My friend thought the flavors of her drink were overpowering (chocolate shavings on ice and mango) but the "honey" drink was easy and smooth!

The Mint Condition was so refreshing and gave the illusion of a mojito but was perfect for a 8 month pregnant lady just trying to catch a vibe. The service was face and the bar was clean!! They have great seating inside the bar or you can sit on the outdoor patio. They have comfortable lounge couches and tables for larger parties! The view is impeccable!

We opted for a seat at the bar. My wife ordered the MUG SHOT, V-One Vanilla, espresso liqueur, espresso, Licor 43, Baileys Salted Caramel, sea salt, salted caramel cold foam, caramel tuile It was funny the bartender didn't know how to make it and had to get walked through the ingredients by the waitresses and my wife and it still wasn't right as the caramel tuile was left off. I ordered the San Pedro, Ghost Jalapeño Tequila, Cointreau, raspberry, lime, guajillo chili. Both drinks were very good, it was just a bit of let down to be excited to go somewhere and have a less than perfect experience. The inside was adorned with real celebrity mug shots accompanied by fake arrest stories making it a fun place to check out.

We rolled the dice on the lobster tacos, since the description sounded too good to pass up, and came out aces. The lobster seemed fresh to me, was cooked properly, and went well with the spicy chilies and acidic aioli. We also ordered the al pastor nachos, which were honestly better than most bar nachos around. The service was a little slow, but thats because there only seemed to be two staff members, including the one guy mixing drinks. Aka - mgmt fault, not the pleasant servers.

Once you get in, there's a small lounge area on the left and then a larger lounge area straight ahead where the bar is. They have small tables with couches and local artwork ond display. For their drinks, their mixed drinks are average, but they only had 3 beers on draft which was a disappointment. They do serve some bar food and snacks, but like the drinks they're overpriced. I've been here twice and there's usually a wait for the rooftop. Once on a Saturday I was quoted up to a 3 hour wait that was actually 45 minutes and on a Sunday it was a 15 minute wait. I put my name down and got a friendly text when my turn was up. The view is pretty good, but not the best since it's not by the water so it's mostly looking at the city and large apartment complexes. The rooftop is small with 4-5 tables, a TV, and some seats. It seems like they allow around 40 people in at a time. Overall, this a cool place to hang out with friends this summer!
