    Cocktails

    Roxanne's has some of the best cocktails in the city and is always a fun vibe. If you like matcha, order the In Tokyo, it's one of the most delicious cocktails I've EVER had. The interior is cute and playful while also being dark and romantic. Highly recommend as a pre/post game spot or a date for casual drinks with your date or friends.

    Sugar cookie latte

    I LOVED the February/Valentines cocktails I drank at Roxanne's! I wasn't sure how I'd like an alcoholic matcha but the "in Tokyo" was so creamy and delicious. I also had the "sugar cookie latte" which tasted as scrumptious as it sounds. The cocktails were pretty reasonably priced for Boston ($12-16). The music was kind of silly and went in and out of being super loud/dancy to slow/quieter, which fit the Saturday night ambiance of half people huddled around the bar and a few with reserved seating. The bartenders were super sweet and the hosting staff even fit my friend and I into a booth without a res which was so nice! Would come back for a girls night for sure :)

    While we were in Boston for a vacation my husband wanted to seek out a unique bar for some late night drinks and we decided to try Roxanne's. They seemed very impressed with themselves and not very friendly imo. My husband and I enjoyed our drinks, however. He got an old fashioned and another drink I cant quite remember the name of. I asked for something similar to a sangria and it was very good whatever it was- but when i asked for another the next bartender had no idea how to replicate it. Prices were a little steep, but it was in the city so I am not surprised.

    Amazing cocktails! Great service. Love the vibes. Live music was playing one of the nights we were there. Definitely coming back

    Roxanne's is a very fun cocktail bar with a cute but small menu. The menu does change regularly, so if you fall in love with a drink there- go often before it's gone! I recommend making reservations before going on an evening or weekend. They do limit your time here which is a bummer but it a way that more people can enjoy and try the place. The service is alright, nothing too crazy. When they get busy, you will be forgotten about but it's a busy cocktail bar, can't hold them to it. The decor is amazing, girly, cutesy!! It's always a must to take a photo in their bathroom mirror, best lighting around. I love Roxanne's!

    This bar has a fun vibe with some good drinks. It's a bit empty earlier in the night so plan to go a bit later after 10ish if you would like a livelier night. We both ended up getting the 'For the Girls' drink. It was strong, fruity, and very sweet. We also got a plate of their potato wedges - it tasted like the frozen kind from the supermarket, but made for good bar food after a few drinks.

    Love their cocktails!!! They were so unique and delicious. Went here for a girls night and majority of us literally ordered a drink called For the Girls. It was a hit!

    I celebrated my birthday at Roxanne's this past February. The vibe is just so cute and girly pop. I was so excited to be with my friends in such a cute place. They were playing the best music I could've asked for from Beyoncé to rap to pop. We luckily got to snag some seats in the back and spent the whole night laughing and drinking. The drinks are definitely on the pricey side, but that's Boston for you. I would definitely come back and celebrate another special event here!!

    Had to try the spot while in Boston for a show since that's my name! We went right when they opened, wish I could've gone later in the evening for a full experience, no complaints though. Cool vibe.

    I came across this place on Yelp when trying to locate somewhere for drinks. It was about half full on a Saturday afternoon with a good amount of the other tables previously reserved. Fortunately there were two seats a the bar which was much better than the seats facing the wall where the hostess had place us initially. I tried their Fortune teller while my friend got a burger medium well and a ginger beer mock tail. The bartender made refreshing and easy to sip on cocktails. Burger and steak fries did the job as stated by my friend. Overall, I had a good experience in a youthful and lively environment. The whole bar was flooded with people by the time we left around 9 pm. Staff were friendly and prompt with completing our requests. Would come again.

    Such a cute place with great cocktails and snacks! The place is so eclectic inside and has neon signs everywhere. Went with a party of 7 on a Friday night. Our server was super accommodating and kind. We got a ton of snacks: the shishito peppers, fried goat cheese (my fav), and fries. All very tasty! For drinks I got the naked and instafamous and the staycation. Both so good! I'd definitely come again with friends for both the drinks and snacks.

    The Bikini Bottom was so good!!

    The bikini bottom was so yummy (to the left)!! Will be coming back for sure, it had yummy drinks, great music, and the decor was super cute!

    Roxanne's is the most adorable cocktail bar, and great for girl's night (or a date)! The drinks are great, and the drink menu is curated with care from what I could tell. I have also been for dinner, and although service was slightly disappointing, the apps we shared completely made up for it. Overall such a fun little spot for a night out!

    Is the high tops or standard seating better?

    Standard seating is better with a group, high tops may be better if you're by yourself in my opinion.

    Can someone underage come with an older group and just order snacks or is 21+ required for admission?

    Hi we are 21+ sorry

    Is there a dinner menu? I can't seem to find it here or on your website

    There's a Snacks menu. A few photos of it appear here on Yelp.

    Good for dancing?

    Yes, they have DJ till they closed.

    For large format, is it possible to request the ice cream social for 2 people?

    Yeah I’m sure we could make it work.

There is literally fun everywhere you look from the panda stuffed animal riding a tiger on the wall to the hilarious shrek pillow. Coming right when they open I was able to see these things that you would likely not see in the evening. But to be fair I came right when they opened since it is first come first serve. A majority of the drinks were more on the savory side which was very interesting like "may all your bacon burn" with bacon bites at the top of the drink. The drinks my friend had were all stunning with the use of egg yolk to elevate the drink. We ended the evening by walking over to Bow Market and trying Viet Citron which was so DANG GOOD my gosh. The to go orders were insane but looks like they are doing very well despite recently opening in. I got the grilled lemongrass pork ribs bowl and youtiao and the side sauce was so good. The ribs were all very meaty. It looks small but I was surprised how full I was after having it. Nice night of drinks and food.

    I am over the MOON with Moon Bar!…read more If I could live here I would! :) Another excellent experience here and it just happened to be restaurant week. We also spent an hour at the King Tut exhibit across the street! This restaurant/bar always seems packed. And, with reservations for 645pm (highly recommend) the bar was quite busy. The buzz from this high-end cocktail bar is exactly what you want on a Friday evening; From girlfriends sipping their wine to couples laughing and swirling their cocktails, Moon Bar is for the classy and sexy. Abby our server is excellent! A mixologist who knows all the cocktails and can recommend based on your preference. I tried one of their new cocktails with bourbon and did not care for it. Abby made me my mezcal drink that I have ordered before...its the 305 cowboy, an extremely popular drink. A must try for sure! Note: Some bartenders make you feel guilty for saying something about a drink you ordered and did not like. But, here at Moon Bar, Abby was so gracious to make me something that I will enjoy. Hats off to her:) Food: Since it was restaurant week we just shared everything. For starters we ordered the Tuna Tartare that was excellent. Then, we had Piri-Piri Chicken Thighs that were also good but quite spicy. For dessert, we shared the Caribbean Tiramisu, which was great. It was a tough choice between this and the Guava Cheesecake. We were so full that we ended up bringing home leftovers. Oh, I also forgot to mention we always order their Curry Fries - a must try when coming here Trust Me. My husband doesn't love curry but he loves these fries and you will too. #friesaretodiefor Moon Bar, thanks for being amazing in every way. Thanks for your splendid service, crafty cocktails, delicious wine (try the Pinot Noir from Germany), and your amazing food ---Love those Curry Fries!

In advance, I stopped into the hotel to confirm that a gluten-free guest could be accommodated and was assured this would be handled. In reality, the accommodation was inadequate and, at times, unacceptable. While the rest of us were served scones, my stepdaughter was given cut fruit in their place, and told that was all they had to accommodate.The dessert course consisted of what appeared to be basic gluten-free cookies, misrepresented as something more gourmet - egg nog cookies??? This lack of preparation was both disappointing, upsetting and avoidable. The broader experience was equally concerning. We were subjected to an unsolicited and uncomfortable "lesson" on tea service, which detracted from what should have been a relaxed and celebratory occasion. While trying to enjoy the time with the girls, being a lifelong tea drinker and someone who has been to many times at your establishment and its various incarnations, this is something I have never experienced. The food quality was poor (scones were clearly reheated and stuck to the cloth napkin they were wrapped in), and there were notable service lapses, including being served water in a visibly shattered glass. Additionally, when hot water was added to refresh the tea, my stepdaughter's pot curdled and had to be replaced. It was especially disappointing, as I mentioned that I had stopped in and spoken with the concierge, and was assured, as they had called the kitchen while I stood there that they readily accommodated gluten-free. There are numerous places in the city that could have done this, and if you had just told me that you could not do so, I would have booked us elsewhere. I chose not to raise the multiple issues in the moment so as not to disrupt what was meant to be a special day for the girls and me. However, the total cost exceeded $500, and the experience did not come close to justifying that price point! Do not recommend.
