Roxanne's was a fun & vibrant spot on a Saturday night. When my friends and I walked in, we immediately loved the fun wall paper and theme inside! There was so much colorful art - truly beautiful! We stopped by after dinner for drinks, and the place was packed. We immediately noticed that groups stayed at the tables for a very long time - when tables opened up, we were told everything was fully reserved for the night. I feel like some people used it as a hang out vs. a place to order food and drinks and there seemed to be no time limit at the tables - I wish some areas could be first come first serve so we were able to grab a seat. Nonetheless, the cocktails were fabulous and only $10!!!! Yes TEN. I couldn't believe it - as someone from NJ/NY, that is almost unheard of! I do definitely recommend coming here for a night out - just be sure to reserve a table beforehand! read more

Great atmosphere for a late night drink! The cocktails are strong but not outstanding. Go here for the mood and the cool interior, not so much the quality of the drinks read more

Roxannes has recently opened up near the Boston Commons area and based off my one visit, I love it. The drinks are extremely affordable at around ~$10 and they have plenty of seats. Of the 3 drinks I tried, I would say mezcal me maybe and knife tricks were definitely worth the money. The mezcal had a great smokiness to it and the the knife tricks was well balanced. My girlfriend and I also tried their fries which were so good. Overall, this place has a wonderful atmosphere and I'll be back to try more of their drinks! read more

Roxanne's is a cute and trendy cocktail bar. All of the cocktails are $10 which is cheap for downtown Boston! The Negroni Sbagliato, Red Light Special, and Six Foot Seven Foot are all super tasty! The food is a little disappointing, so I'm hoping they add more to it as the bar is pretty new. The space is small and first come first serve. Starting at 7:30 pm reservations begin so you might be moved to the bar area if you have a table. Overall good vibe and a welcome addition to Beacon Hill! read more

I'm going to go out on the limb and say Roxanne's is my favorite bar in Boston right now. The place is just SO cute, the cocktails are creative and sweet, and the menu is exactly what you'd want to munch on during a night out. I really love the music too, a lot of throwbacks from the 80's and 90's. I went with my boyfriend the first time but cannot wait to drag my girlfriends here. read more

I was looking for a cool, lounge-y after-dinner party hang-out, and this was perfect. We went on a Friday night when there was a DJ playing 90s as the theme for the night, and it was a fun scene, more 30/40-something crowd. Great place to hang out for drinks, and dancing if you like. Loved the decor and ambiance. No dessert menu which was a bummer, and limited hot food menu. We only had cocktails. I recommend. read more

All the drinks we ordered were good and fairly strong without being too overpriced. Also ordered the fried goat cheese and it was good. The music was trying a little hard to appeal to millennials and it was extremely crowded and vibes were kinda mid but overall we had fun read more

mens bathroom reeked of urine and the whole floor what soaking wet. I'm hoping it wasn't wet with urine.

Legit cocktails. Excellent service which is rare to find anymore. Our bartender was as fast as our server Felicia.

I was super excited to try this place but unfortunately I was disappointed by my experience. I walked alone to a pretty packed bar and I didn't see any open tables. There was no hostess stand so I wasn't quite sure where to go, not to mention no one greeted me. I stood in an area of the restaurant until a place at the standing bar opened up. The cocktails were surprisingly cheap ($10!) but also pretty odd flavors. There was nothing that really stood out to me but I tried the pink flamingo. It wasn't amazing. It tasted sparkling, sweet coconut milk. We ordered a couple snacks, Brussels sprouts and the buffalo cauliflower. Both items were pretty good but a bit heavy. I thought this place would have a bit more sophisticated food for being a swanky cocktail bar. Like I said just a bit disappointing. read more

Roxanne’s - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The decorations were nice and the drinks were ok. That was about it. My friend and I tried Roxannes as our first bar in Boston (we just moved here). We sat at the bar and the bartender was rude and inattentive. Never introduced himself, didn't greet us or anything. First thing he said to us was "What did you want?". When I asked him for recommendations he rolled his eyes he "didn't have time to do all of that" and went back to making his other drinks. He didn't come over to check on us, we had to keep asking other servers for help, silverware, napkins etc. If it was just that he was busy I would've understood but he was giving plenty of smiles and attention to the rest of the customers at the bar. Ive worked in customer service for many years so I may expect a little more than the usual customer but this experience was not even a good one. Won't be coming back here. read more

Came here during a weekend trip in Boston! When we arrived they told us it was a 3hr wait (it was packed), but we didnt mind since our hotel was in the area. When they texted us that our table was ready, we were quickly seated. The drinks were really good and the place had a nice vibe. Would definitely come back the next time I'm in Boston read more

Cute date night cocktail bar- also with gluten free options on the menu. Their drinks are balanced yet booze forward. read more

Drinks were overpriced for what they were - cocktails mixed in large batches that the waitress told us was in giant jugs in the back. Music was average. Owners response was rude. We asked to change the liquor in the cocktail and the waitress told us at the table we were unable because they were Pre mixed. read more

Tasty cocktails, attentive service, and a celebratory atmosphere! Our group had a private booth which allowed us to feel like we were in our own little oasis. Our server was spot-on with her cocktail recommendations, which wasn't easy with our diverse tastes. Highly recommend the Fortune Teller cocktail. Will definitely be back on my next trip to Boston. read more

Terrible service. Just acted like we were doing them a favor. Acting like we were doing them a favor to give them business. Service was atrocious. Drinks were not great and they just said "oh that's too bad". Rushed us out of the place in 30 mins. Horrible. We're checking the clock every few minutes. To them 90 mins means that in 60 mins they are already chasing you out. So poor. And I asked our server to double check on my guest since she (my guest) was in the toilet for a bit- but the server wouldn't do anything. Then asked us to stand outside in the cold rather than even allowing us to wait inside where it was warm for our Uber. Such an awful place. And the vibe- I don't know what people have been commenting - but I'd recommend Yvonnes 1000% more than this place. So disappointing. read more

Love the vibes, cool decors and affordable drinks. Highly recommended to everyone. Ps: it's hard to find parking around there. Uber there instead read more

Terrible restaurant, as a whole. Josie was an AMAZING server, unlike her co workers. Everyone else seemed miserable. I been here numerous times, Claudia is awful and should not be behind the bar. She's rude, she makes terrible drinks, and she is very slow. My server Josie was very competent and you can see clearly that she knows what she is doing. She was funny, sweet, accommodating, and apologetic as appetizers and main course came out before the first round of drinks. I never write reviews but at this point it seems beneficial. Andrew on the other hand always seems drunk. He slurs and he presents himself like he just rolled out of bed. Very unprofessional crew. That will be the last time I ever go!!!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND. read more

Drinks tasted expensive and were so good and wasn't pricey for them either. They were reasonable. The decor of the place was very cute. I would come back. read more

We were really looking forward to coming here because of the cute ambiance. However almost immediately we were confronted by the incredibly rude waitresses/bartenders/servers(?) who all shared a bad attitude. Drinks were overpriced and poorly made. I will say the bouncers were friendly and fun. We will not be returning--don't bother. read more

We had a 1030 pm reservation but we were 20 mins late and they were very accommodating. Out of the 3 drinks we ordered, Love in Tokyo was the best! We also loved Staycation but didn't quite appreciate Fever Dream, it's probably just personal taste! Overall I'd totally recommend this place for a good time and good drinks! read more

A hole in the wall type restaurant that you must go to for a girls night out. Drinks and food are flavorful. Will definitely be a frequent customer. Very cool ambiance. read more

nice drinks - the love in tokyo is delicious ambience is great, clean bathrooms staff are wonderful, accommodating, and polite read more

This place was a lot of fun. It wasn't very busy on a Tuesday but still very lively. The bar tenders were friendly and recommend some other good bar spots in the area. Pretty good cocktails, we got the Fever Dream and All The Gin Joints. read more

Such a cute place! Very retro decorations with beautiful wallpaper and round booth style tables that give just enough privacy for your group to talk. The music was just loud enough to drown out other people's conversations but hear your own. Cocktails are cheap ($10), delicious, and Instagram-worthy. I just wish there were more food offerings. Also I had four mixed drinks and I was barely buzzed at the end of the night so although the drinks are cheap I'm not sure if there's much alcohol in them. read more

Meh. If you like average cocktails served by people who seem bothered that you're there, this is the place for you.

Great vibe, good drinks and service! Loved the lighting and the tunes playing in the background. I had the pink flamingo drink, it was delicious! read more

Place has awful service with even worse drinks. The manager who has an attitude spilled a shot all over me and did not even offer to clean up or replace drink. It is funny because all the servers had a sour face. Bathrooms disgusting. Called over the server multiple times and got ignored. The east cost tavern group praises hospitality but this place is not it. Do not recommend what so ever. Male bartender with glasses was flirting and making eyes at the bar. It was just a mess. read more

Great vibes! Really enjoyed to interior decor. Drinks are tasty and staff was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back.

I recently attempted to come here, sat down and was rudely asked for both my ID and vaccination card. Seeing how vaccines are no longer required I was a bit concerned on why this was being asked but I complied. I then gave her my ID and she was like oh never mind it's Massachusetts I dont need your vaccine card. She rudely walked away with my ID and treated me as a child. At this point I just wanted to leave and be treated with respect. read more

Food was good, drinks were ok but the horrible part about this place was the service. We were at our table for 20 minutes after making a reservation in advance and we had to ask someone if they were going to come by. They took our orders, gave us the food and never came by again. We had to ask someone for the check from the bar. Honestly, if you want to come here, don't waste your time with a reservation. Just go straight to the bar. read more

Great cocktails! Loved the Pink Flamingo and Amaretto Sour! Fries were good too! Loved the service too. Just wonderful too!

Really cute ambience. The drinks were okay. They were extremely sweet. Everything was too sweet. I actually did get sick the next morning from only 2.5 drinks, which I suspect is because I'm not used to super sweet drinks. Also the server never refilled our water, not once, which I suspect contributed to the problem. read more

A new hidden gem cocktail bar right by Boston Common! I came here with a friend for drinks after work on Tuesday. It wasn't crowded and we had our choice of sitting at a table or the bar. I was looking to try something new, and after Googling "new restaurants and bars in Boston" this kept popping up on a few lists so I had to give it a try. I was very glad to see the cocktails were priced at $10, since many places in Boston have upscale cocktails priced around $14/15 (I'm not talking about your regular vodka soda at a dive bar, but more of an real craft cocktail). For drinks, I first got the Pink Flamingo (vodka, coconut milk, strawberry, sparkling rose). It was refreshing and tropical. I was nervous that the coconut milk would make it heavy, but it was still light and fruity. Then I had the key lime fizz (rum, lime, egg white, bitters), which I thought was still good but I preferred the Pink Flamingo in both taste and presentation. For snacks, we split the house fries and the buffalo cauliflower bites. I thought the house fries were exceptional-- thick cut wedges with a tangy aioli. The buffalo cauliflower bites were fine, but nothing exceptional so next time I would probably try something else. Overall, I thought the atmosphere was fun and the drinks/snacks were priced well. read more

I've been to Roxanne's twice now. Once for drinks only and once for food and drinks! This is certainly a trendy bar with small plates. It is fairly dark and has large booths for friends to gather around dim electric candles. I was really pleasantly surprised by the food. The prices are pretty decent the so are the portions. We got almost everything on the menu for a group of six girls and split it pretty evenly. The burger was juicy, the fries were thick salty wedges and the wings had plenty of flavor. The tables are a little small for the food, but I guess they don't expect you to order almost everything. One disappointing thing was they were out of the buffalo cauliflower and one other simple dish. The drinks are decently priced around $9-$14. I started with some red wine and moved to their mezcal cocktail and finished with a few vodka martinis! The service was good except for the fact that the water glasses are tiny and they don't leave you with a pitcher, so you had to really wave them down to get more then two tiny glasses of water for the whole night. Especially after all of the cocktails! I'd recommend this for a weeknight date or a late Friday /Saturday night sit down drinks with your friends. read more

Pink Flamingo sounded good but just tasted like cheap champagne with coconut milk. Had higher hopes for this place

Roxanne's is the kind of bar where you can be yourself, enjoy a drink, and live the life you want to live free of judgment. There are bumping beats, fantastic and not too overpriced cocktails (the amaretto sour!), and just enough space to throw your back out to a Nelly song. It gets super packed on a Friday night but the vibes are so good it's worth the squeeze. read more

What a cool spot! Love the decor (bold patterned wallpaper for days) and its a nice size -- cozy but not tight. The prices are super reasonable for downtown Boston. We ordered a $55 large format drink that was enough in itself for our four person happy hour. It was maybe not the most elegant punch (akin to jungle juice, and served with a bunch of little ice cubes instead of a big punch cut), but it was low key and fun. The snacks were a hit with everyone: fried goat cheese and buffalo cauliflower were the top picks of the night. We actually ordered one of all the small plates, the only one I might skip in the future were the Brussels sprouts which I wish were crispier. Overall I was super happy with our evening. It was shockingly not crowded after work on a weekday so I think we will be back! read more

This is a very cute place to grab a cocktail! Cool ambiance and tastey drinks! Not to mention their snacks are reasonably priced and really delicious. Great place to take a few pictures. read more
