Yes, yes, yes. Backbar is the first truly speakeasy-styled bar I'm aware of in Boston (I don't think that Drink counts -- and don't get me started on Prohibited), and it does a fantastic job of it. Traveling cocktailians will recognize many hallmarks of the speakeasy genre at Backbar -- the barely-marked door, the small, intimate space, and the excellent cocktails served by exceptional bartenders, but it's executed without the kerfuffle and pretension you'll find at PDT, Bourbon and Branch, the Violet Hour, or countless other "speakeasies" around the country. The house Manhattan variant "The Model-T," named after the building's origin as a Ford factory, is a lovely herbal twist on the classic, and the Smoke n' Coke twist on a Rum and Coke (with New England soda Moxie in place of the Coke) is not to be missed. Backbar is a real treat to visit and a valuable asset to Union Square and all of the 'ville. read more

I came in early on a Sunday for a few cocktails and their famous and limited Ramen Noodles. I am no Ramen expert but I thought it was delicious. I opted to add some bacon and some spice to it for a few extra bucks. Given the entrance, this place does feel like a speakeasy. The bartender, a big burly fellow, was outstanding. He made me one of their famous Milk Punch and explained in detail how it was made. He also made us a tiki drink that came in a Darth Vader head. How cool is that!? read more

I've been coming here off and on for about 3 years now and never got around to writing a review. This place is great and it really makes you look like a cool "in the know" person when you bring out-of-towners to backbar. What I like most is that the bartenders are always experimenting with new cocktails and are willing to put them out there even if they may not be super crowd pleasers. My first time here, actually, I ordered a drink that I was a bit taken aback by since it wasn't something I'm used to and Sam was very gracious and offered, several times, to take my drink back if I didn't like it. I kept it, mostly because I hate sending anything back, and the drink wasn't bad, it was just different. And I'm someone that likes something different every once in a while. I've been back many times since and have never been disappointed. The service is always excellent and anytime I've ordered food it's always been very good as well. I also came for Star Wars night once which was really fun! I like that this place is so quirky -- perfect for Somerville. I will say that it is pretty pricey. I think part of the reason for this is you do get a great experience since it's an intimate setting, and everyone is required to have a place to sit (not a standup dive bar by any means). It's definitely worth the splurge every once in a while, especially when you're showing out-of-town guests around or just want to impress a date. read more

I wanted to love this place. Tiny servings. Unimpressive food. We were really disappointed after waiting 45 minutes for a table. read more

The service is top notch. The waiters and bartenders are friendly and patient and willing to run through half a dozen drinks as I ask "what about this and this?" They let me sit and wait for perpetually late friends, taking up valuable space as a party of one. They are _amazing_ about water refills. The popcorn (which they still sometimes give out for free? Cause I've had it recently for free?) is delicious. And since I usually come here after work with friends on weekdays, we can almost always get a spot immediately, which is awesome. And it really goes without saying that the drinks are insanely amazing. I trust the bartenders implicitly and will let them put shit in my drinks that I would not be okay with anywhere else. read more

I love backbar, but I hate what it means for the rent in this neighborhood. Union Square is on the upswing. Bronwyn, backbar, and Brass Union (so I've been told) are great and focused on delivering a fantastic experience. We're getting the T someday, Joe Curtatone tells us. There's a street fair or festival pretty much twice a month. The Globe is running an apparently quarterly series of articles about Somerville being the next big thing. They're on to us. So, if you're like me, enjoy union square, and backbar in particular, as many times as you can before you get priced out of the neighborhood. The drinks are amazing. It is immediately obvious how much fun the bartenders are having. I had a rum and coke variation made with Moxie and a smoked cola. A bartenders choice last week had atomized clove sprayed over the top. Some of you may roll your eyes at the thought of the atomizer as some sort of hipster affectation. Fuck that. If it didn't make your drink better, you can be damn sure they wouldn't have taken the trouble of doing it. backbar and its staff are all about sincerity. I strongly recommend the bartenders choice. You come to backbar to let people that love cocktails show you why they love what they do, so let them curate the experience a little bit. They take hospitality seriously, too. Last week our server, Emily, answered all of our questions about the make up of the Missing Link. We talked about the flavors for a little while, and when we still had questions she went to the bar and brought us a deconstructed version of the drink - tastings of each ingredient so we could taste them separately and as part of the drink as a whole. It was like a bartending master class. It was fantastic. The hosts, who have a difficult job, also bust their ass to be accommodating. At another time we had a couple of friends joining us midway through the evening and they worked hard to find us a new spot so our friends could join us immediately upon their arrival. You know how they move people around? They do that based on the needs of people waiting in line. It's refreshing to see them hustling to fit larger parties by playing customer tetris. In a space as small as backbar, they're walking the line between filling the place, and having the experience inside be as pleasant as possible. read more

The cocktails are beyond exceptional- unique, complex and perfectly balanced. The atmosphere is quirky and cozy, the service friendly & fun. I t's hands down my favorite spot in the Boston area for a drink. Beware- it's almost impossible to get in on weekend evenings. Don't let that discourage you though- it's worth the wait. read more

What a cute little spot! I'm not even going to complain that I had to sit on a wooden soap box type-thing (because it was my freinds' fault). I honestly don't remember what I had there but I will say a few points of: 1) the service is stellar. Everyone is so nice and helpful. Doesn't hurt that they're good looking too, but that's neither here's nor there 2) don't order off the wall, try to get the bartender to make you something. They experiment with cocktails and come up with the most amazing drinks ever. 3) it's not badly priced 4) it's a super intimate yet open atmosphere. 5) you can't help but feel fancy when you walk through a minimally marked door down a hallway into the bar. only downside is that a place this cool is kind of a wait, but its so worth it if you have the patience. read more

The drinks here are amazing! The bartenders know what they're doing and are patient and helpful when you are trying to order. The food isn't bad either. Try to get there between 4-6 pm to take advantage of their genius hour. And you must get the caramel popcorn with bacon.. I mean how can you not? The ramen was ok... I like my ramen spicy so they brought out the spicy togarashi since the chili oil was too mild. And it could have been hotter (temperature), but not bad. Wouldn't recommend the pork buns.. or the eggplant ones, very salty. read more

backbar's often compared to Drink, but I think the only similarity is the bespoke cocktail experience. Otherwise, backbar is much more casual (read: less pretentious clientele), more intimate (read: much smaller), and communal (read: it's in Somerville). The trick is to avoid this place on Friday and Saturday nights if you're adverse to waiting to get into a bar in Somerville or have a large group. I've been here many times earlier on a Saturday evening, Thursday night, or on Sunday and have always been comfortably seated without a long wait. read more

Fun, hidden away bar adjacent to Field & Vine restaurant. Backbar has a quirky vibe with a lot of Star Wars kistch and top notch cocktails. The drinks are a little price ($13), but are very well made with good quality ingredients and a lot of originality. The space itself is a little small, but it comes off as cozy. We went for Saturday night pre-dinner drinks at about 7p and it wasn't too crowded; by about 8p it was getting pretty crowded and there was a wait (it's a hosted seated bar, which is wise given the size of the space). All-in-all a very nice place for a cocktail or two, especially if you're going on the earlier side. read more

Absolutely love this bar! It is teeny tiny and therefore hard to get into. If you're going here on a weekend, I highly recommend reservations. The set isn't really the best for groups, but the cocktails fully make up for that! This is the most innovative bar I have been to. You can literally go in there, give them an ingredient, and they will create a delicious concoction. Completely blows Drink in South Boston out of the water. I went in there and asked for something with tequila that wasn't a margarita- the bartender just kind of stared at me blankly. The best part about backbar is that they can make fabulous mocktails too! So if you need a designated driver or you're with someone who doesn't drink, this is the place to be! Over halloween weekedn this year they had a viewing of Beetjuice with movie inspired beverages. Just fabulous! They also one made the best cocktail I have ever had- it was a Harry Potter butter beer inspired drink. I would drink that forever if I could. This place is Boston's best kept secret. read more

I'm a ramen snob so here's my take on it, it's not ramen, it's pasta soup. Is it good? Yes. Is it unique? Yes. Are the ingredients fresh? Yes. However it is not ramen. A bowl of ramen provides a specific type of noodles with a consistent type of broth. To make the broth, you need to perfect the recipe. You don't switch the broth around based on the ingredients that are available and backbar continuously changes the broth based on the ingredients that they are using for journeymen. According to the bartender, the broth can be made out of chicken and pork one week and the next week, it could be made out of veal. Is this a bad thing for backbar? No, but once again, it's not ramen, it is pasta soup. Another reason why it's not ramen is because ramen is supposed to provide specific toppings that mesh well with the broth. At backbar, they provide you the option of adding various topics including kimchi, extra pork, garlic, or bacon. Each topping is an additional dollar. Overall, I really enjoyed the pasta soup. The portion was big. The soup was full of flavor and the pasta was fresh. Also, this is a great way to try a Journeymen's creation. I'm always amazed how down-to-earth the bartenders are here. Every time I come here, they are super friendly and if you're lucky, they might give you some delicious spicy caramel popcorn on the house! The cocktail menu is continuously changing and if your eye catches a certain spirit, they are more than happy to make a personalized cocktail with the spirit. In addition to cocktails, they also offer a unique list of craft beer and lovely wines. This is a great place to spend an evening! read more

Holy Floodlights Batman!!! The 5 star ratings are definitely for the cool vibe and drinks- but one thing that knocks this down 2 stars is the lighting and the feeling of being on top of one another- I kept elbowing the girl sitting next to me because we were that close to one another's table. Talk about catching awkward eye contact with everyone in the bar because of the small space and BRIGHTNESS of the LIGHTS. The clientele you're aiming for is young, yes? Not my parents who use their phone light to read menus?If yes, you could turn down the wattage a bit, I really don't want to be able to see the blemish on the person in the lounge across from me. Buzz kill. Take away: If you are looking for great drink options away from the beaten path and don't mind the retail store lighting, the bar list is exceptional. read more

Arriving approximately 11:45pm on a Saturday night, "did you call for a reservation?" "No." I'm not sure what their policy on reservations are, but I imagine you'd be better off with one than without, if you attempted to go at a more prime time in the evening. Our hostess was friendly and directed us to "standing room" that they had available. Totally endearing, because she actually meant "standing room" as in there was a little shelf for our drink, and a waiter came to help us. (Much like a similar experiences I've had at Drink). Service was slow; we needed a second to make a decision after our server rattled off the daily specials, and then he disappeared into the dark, 90s music-ing, dimly lit abyss. Not too long after he came back to take our order we were relocated to seats at the bar (automatic star, my feet were killing me)! More slow service here... two bartenders and not a lot of drinks being shaken, stirred, or muddled. Just fancy little book-lights hovering over fancy little shot measurers. Drinks, when they finally arrived, were very nice. A bit smaller and less awe-inspiring that I would have imagined for the price/speed, but well made. I tried the "15 days" (15 days until St. Patrick's Day) because of my recent fix of Irish Whiskey and honey. Overall, I'm a fan. Unique space, fun concept, friendly staff, good quality beverages. read more

Amazing amazing amazing! The staff here is FAR from pretentious and the whole place offers a sweet vibe. That's rare as all hell these days. I can't get over how attentive, professional, and friendly the staff is. Joe, our bartender kept the amazing drinks flowing and made me some of the best cocktails I've ever had. Happy to have experienced this place & wish it all the best in its longevity - it's deserved! read more

This might be my favoriate bar with the Star Wars themed deco and lots of cocktails that will not disappoint! It's a bar where you can be adventurous when ordering drinks because the probability of a miss is low :) read more

backbar - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Somerville, Massachusetts

sam beat of my heart bartender extraordinaire make me what you want I really ought to tell my friends about this place. I should bring them here... But there is just something oh so sweet about having your own lonely bar to run and hide and drink your sorrows, eat incredible asian fusion pork buns, and revel in unique ramen concoctions. That is what backbar is: no groups, just the food/drink savvy single locals. If it wasn't for Yelp events here, I probably would have never found it. In fact, I think I almost gave up the first time I came. Walking down a dead-end street, a single small plaque on the wall into, what looks like, a murdering hallway... Do not fret! There is delicious food, booze, and friendly faces here in this room in a room with a hazy skylight. Your date will think you're really cool, or going to murder them. Check this place out. read more

Thanks to yelp and eWOM....otherwise this place is absolutely invisible in the back of Union Square. And it would be a total shame, this is one of the best cocktail bars I have been to. Very cozy and comfortable for having a nice cocktail. The bar tenders know what they are talking about and both drinks I had were pretty good (apparently they change up the drink menu quite frequently). I am very happy this place opened up in Union Square as it will most likely contribute to the area keeping its upswing. This place is basically a non-poche version of Drink in Boston (and I kind of like it a little better)...Try it out, totally worth it. read more

Came here for a Yelp event about making eggnog (free) and I loved everything about it. The staff were nice and funny, the decor is fantastic, the seats are comfy, the 'specials' board is a wall which I thought was cool and the drinks were great! What more could you ask for? Maybe an easier door to find... read more

backbar - Eggnog - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Somerville, Massachusetts

Sam Treadway was rated the best bartender in Boston for 2013 by Boston Magazine, and, I have to say, he's pretty high up there. First of all, the ambience of Back Bar is worth the trip alone. You can reserve tables (which my boyfriend and I did to celebrate our anniversary), which means no wait or annoying jostling while you're standing near the bar. While everyone loves the cocktails and the small plates (I have to second the reviews that the olives are amazing and served warm!), the best part of backbar is the RAMEN. Come early (it's only served 4 pm - 6 pm and only 12 orders) and warm up with a mixture of pork and duck broths, delightfully runny duck eggs, springy, fresh noodles and all the toppings you could possibly want (my favorite is the kimchi!). My only qualm with this place is it's basically impossible to get to without a car so just mentally fold your cab cost into your food and drink order. read more

A kind of weird space covered in chalkboard paint and some graffiti and big wooden blocks strewn around benches offering table space or an extra spot to sit, it seemed more like a black box theater space than a bar upon walking in. That said - the drinks they mark are strong and scrumptious. We only ordered one round of caramel popcorn (with bacon!) to nibble with our drinks but I wished we'd have gotten more. I plan on returning some other weeknight for more snacks and other round of yummy drinks. This is a great spot in Union to take a break midweek with a few rounds of really well-made cocktails. read more

This is my favorite bar in the US. Don't let the hidden entrance fool you, this place gets packed on a Friday and Saturday night. The crowd knows best. This feels like a hidden secret of Somerville in spite of the crowd--probably because the entrance is behind a dumpster. While their constantly changing menu of specialty drinks are always wonderful, a really special night comes from telling your bartender your favorite base spirit and an emotion. They infuse so many kinds of liquors that they can create almost any flavor. They can make the most earthy cocktail you've ever had with mushroom absinth, or the spiciest margarita with habaneros if you ask for it. read more

Thanks Yelp for the tip in coming here. We were looking for a cocktail spot before dinner and this place was perfect! Great drinks and service. Just wished they had a little more on the appetizer menu to snack on (it's primarily cheese/bread/meats). I will definitely come back. read more

I'm not a drinker because I can't handle my alcohol at all, but I would come here just for the atmosphere and the bartenders! It's moody, there's something nice to look at in every corner, even in the bathroom. I happened to go on May 4th so everything was Star Wars themed (May the Forth be with you haaaahaaa). The hostess was wearing a chewbacca onesie! There were Star Wars things everywhere, they really seem to go all out. And I guess they have a new special drink every day that they make up, which is just great knowing how much effort they put into creative thinking. Of all the few drinks I did take a sip of, they were all tasty with fun names. I forgot the bartender's name, but he was so chill, so fun to talk to, and my friends and I couldn't have asked for someone better. Even though it gets loud and the space is pretty tight, the workers and (again!!) the atmosphere of the entire bar are just fun and we had a great time. (We were probably just as loud) read more

Wow. Awesome spot. Great drinks. All sorts of history on everything shared by our server. Model Ts where assembled in this space once upon a time - who knew? It's great to have such a funky "speak-easy" style bar in our neighborhood - definitely has an edge to it that makes the other bars in the area look a little on the bland side. Oh and I love that there isn't a single TV in site. You walk down an unassuming alley - step through a door that could lead anywhere - and follow your nose down a winding greyish corridor into a funky environment that would challenge any bar in downtown Boston for presence and style. It's small but that works; the staff are pretty cool; and the drink options varied. There's a funky menu of food options that I have not tried yet but that looks worthy of investigation. Over all a great experience and I'll definitely go back even though (understandably given how few limited the space is) we felt a little rushed out once we'd finished buying. read more

Interesting place to say the least. Tucked away on a small street behind a busy intersection. This place offers an extremely cozy bar feel. Sit at the bar or lounge is what literally looks and feels like your living room. Comfy couch with pillows and a coffee table to set your drink on. Cocktail selection here is good. The menu is limited and while it was good, I wasn't impressed. I actually can't really remember what we ordered that night...and I do remember still be hungry after and the bill wasn't cheap. I would come back here, but only for drinks and I would make sure to atleast have a snack before coming back. Also...we definitely walked into the wrong restaurant when we first got there...so...if you walk into a place that looks formal and has a dining room..turn around and go to that door you initially walked past ;-) read more

To get here, you have to walk down a dark alley at night, knock on an unmarked steel door and give a suited thug the secret password. Ok, I might be making the last part up, but this place really is Union Square's best kept secret. Not only is it cleverly hidden off the beaten path, but everything about this place is subtle and stylish. They offer craft cocktails and bespoke pub fare. The cocktails, as with many upscale gin joints are small and pricey, but delicious. The experienced and creative bartenders are happy to recommend something based on your tastes, or even better to improvise based on flavor profiles. Wife and I have been a couple of times now, and haven't been disappointed. From the drinks to the bar food, we'd definitely go back. If you're looking for a cozy, upscale place to enjoy a few drinks, or a unique date location, this might just have what you're looking for- as long as you know the password. read more

I love this bar. Just don't go here on a first date that you're not super sure on otherwise the experience could be tainted and you'll be wishing you were on a date with one of the hipster bartenders instead. read more

Take your girl here real fast. Very intimate, stylish scene with fantastic cocktails. I felt like I was living the bougie life of an LA wannabe music producer or a starving Brooklynite model. In a good way. I will say it was a little challenging with a larger group - be prepared to wait and then to be smushed together on some plush couch with a low-lying table too small for all your menus and still somehow unable to hear each other. Better suited for date night. Bathrooms were also on the grosser side. But it's cool, it's hip, I swear. read more

Backbar is small but mighty! For my money, best cocktails around. Unique, fun atmosphere. Great service. Cool vibe. Such a great place that I want to give it one star so I can keep it a secret spot. read more

Just updating: After a few more visits under different circumstances, with different goals and expectations, with different people, I'm downgrading to two stars from three. Food and drinks are fine but I am rarely wowed, and occasionally disappointed (like the pork buns on a recent visit; buns light and tender, but wicked dry pork with very little brightness/nuance). If prices were 30% lower, my rating would go up though. Service is all over the map. It can be very attentive, it can also be absent-minded. Or weird. On the latest trip, my friend and I had reservations (Wed-Thurs only I think). We were seated at a nice corner spot in the otherwise nearly-empty bar. An hour and a couple drinks and snacks in, the bar still only half full, the same hostess who had seated us asked us to move so another party could sit where we were. Like--what?? We took the check instead, and they brought us half-drinks by way of apology I guess (though we felt like we had to pound them...awkward), but it is about the worst faux pas in service. ------------ [older] So. I looooove Journeyman. Like, swoony-starry-eyed-love. Backbar? It's...fine. I will probably go back and give it another shot, but it fell flat for me. Ambience: Fabulous, warm space with clever details (and no TV, praise be). They take reservations on Wed & Thurs nights, which I appreciate, since it is TINY and otherwise you really could never ever get in since they restrict occupancy, like Drink, to ensure everyone has a spot at the bar or a little nook. Drinks: Honestly, the cocktails were fine, but they were not the equal of Bergamot's, or Hungry Mother's, or the Sinclair's (just within easy walking distance). Delicate to the point of losing the elements. Among three of us, we tried 5 variations, so my opinion is pretty well-formed. Beer and wine list seemed well curated. I remember really loving the mixed drinks we tried at Journeyman a while back, so maybe it was a new bartender...? Food: Spicy caramel popcorn = new favorite thing. $18 characuterie plate with your choice of 3 meats was okay, not great. The two types of bread were both too bulky and a bit dry, the lardo was waaaay boring, and the pork and veal grandmere seemed overset or something. Unappealing texture. The liverwurst was outstanding, though, and the coffee-cured bresaola addictive (they brought us lardo by accident, so we got to try four). They did give you a substantial amount of each meat. The only accents were mustards (good) and an Asian-pickled cauliflower that was downright inedible, the flavor was so off with the meats. I am confused by the reviewer who said backbar was owned by the Independent. It's part of the Journeyman project. The Independent also owns the Precinct, their neighbors to the opposite side. read more

Cambridge desperately needs more places like backbar: stylishly aesthetic, concerned about the menu and being inventive, and comfortable. I really loved the creative inspiration and the "back alley" feel to it. I enjoyed drinking the root beer float milk punch, but I'm still not sure what was in it :) The waitress also did a good job filling our waters regularly. The only small misses were: - Not a lot of finger food, small free spicy popcorn - they should offer more flavors! - The waitress wasn't friendly and didn't explain the drinks that well. Hmm. - Probably an off night, but it took us 30 minutes to find parking. I'll definitely be back! Hopefully, often! read more

I love bars that don't feel like another typical bar. Great atmosphere. Awesome cocktails. And ramen. If you can appreciate insanely fatty (and delicious) pork belly, try the pork buns. read more

If you know backbar, you know it is good. It has a low key speakeasy feel which is what they are going for, thus the unmarked door and a long hallway where you travel towards the noise. (BTW they have cheered up the hallway, and lite it better so it is less adventurous to get in, sad) The staff, especially the barman are really into making you good cocktails. They only offer a bar menu but it is quite tasty and has some seasonal deliciousness offered. Great place for a hideaway date, or friends meeting for drinks and a chat. Have the popcorn, and the cheese plate. Over the years the bar menu has changes and been reduces they serve only what is popular, it's still good and wholesome. The bar keeps up with trends, and I have no reservation bring my bartender or my cocktail aficionado here. If you can't find what you are hankering for talk to the bartender they like a challenge. The scotch and bourbon collection is quite good, not extensive, but you'll find something you will like. As for price I have found it to be reasonable, they like their regulars. Keep you ears open for special little events, and ask them which new drinks are prepared differently. I had a nice bourbon cocktail there served in a smoked glass that was "smoked up" infront of me. NOVEL! read more

This place has fallen off a lot since its opening weeks, mostly with regard to service. Food options were never that great, though the little dishes of caramel popcorn they hand out are nice. Nothing substantial enough to be able to stay there for more than a few hours, though. Drinks are still good for the most part. The first couple times I came here, the staff was very friendly and engaging, the drinks were delicious, and I could talk with the bartenders for hours about cocktails and life. I even had about 10 friends come in one night and take over the bar area, and they served us well. I went raving to all my friends about it ("it's like Drink, only in Union Square!"), and I've probably been back about 15-20 times since it opened earlier this year. However, the last six or seven times I've been here, service has been lackluster. Overall, I tend to come when it's not busy, so that I can sit at the bar, ask questions about the drinks, and get cocktail ideas. You'd think that if only eight people total are there, most of whom are not even sitting at the bar, the service should be pretty good, right? Not so. The bartenders are either acting very busy shuffling things around behind the counter, chopping ice, or disappearing entirely for 10-minute stretches at a time, leaving no one behind the bar. I try to strike up a conversation by asking a question or two about the drinks, and I get a brief answer and they go back to being busy. One night, even the drinks fell short and were very hastily-made. The few times I've sat at the tables instead of the bar, service has been slow, whether it's busy or not. I may come back every now and then, but for now, it's not really worth the trek from Davis over to Union. I'd much rather stick with Saloon or Five Horses in Davis, or take the T in to South Station and go to Drink. read more

Its very similar to a speakeasy! Have to be careful to find the entrance. Great cocktails and little snack food. Unfortunately the awesome ice cream sandwich is no more. The lady who used to make them has moved on. Not meant to be great for dinner food. The vibe of people going there are similar to that at Brick & Mortar in central sq. However the room architecture and atmosphere is very different. Its not as loud and dark as B&M. read more

You can find some of the tastiest cocktails in the Boston area. The ambience is also nice and chill. Perfect for relaxing with friends

My boyfriend brought me here before our birthday dinner reservations. We sat at the bar, and since it was pretty early in the evening (6:30ish) the place was rather empty. I loved every single cocktail I had! I asked the bartender to come up with something given the flavor profiles I like and which alcohols I didn't want. *ahem tequila* The drinks you can get here are one of a kind, many of them made with homemade infused liquors and homemade syrups. We ordered the spicy caramel popcorn with bacon which was amazing. The other bites looked yummy, and I'll definitely come back for more of the food. I've never loved drinking so much and I highly recommend to anyone! I'll definitely be bringing back friends and family that I know will love this spot. Amazing overall experience. read more

It was the first time I left alone in the US, I can say that in Boston I did not feel alone. Backbar has a great service and wonderful drinks. I got lost a little because it is very discreet the bar entrance. Tip take the right Bronwyn Restaurant, right to the funds. read more
