In the morning, it's a relaxed coffee shop serving breakfast and great coffee, then it transitions into lunch, dinner, beer, and a lively evening scene with music. We stopped in for lunch first and sat at the bar. I ordered one of the bowls and added sausage, which was absolutely delicious. The bartender was incredibly friendly and gave us excellent beer recommendations. I loved being able to try several mini pours. They also had spirits available. There's an outdoor patio too, that looked sunny and like a great place to hang out. We liked it so much that we came back the next morning for coffee. The bartender that morning was just as welcoming and made us excellent coffees. She also told us that the actual Remnant brewery was only about a 15-minute walk away! Overall, such a great spot with friendly staff, good food and drinks, and a really fun atmosphere no matter what time of day you visit.

You could be the only two people at the bar and you won't get a smile or stellar service. The drinks are good, but not well balanced. The prices are high, but it's Boston. After reading several other reviews with sentiments like mine, I guess I'm not alone.

Fantastic little spot! The host/server is most certainly the highlight of my review. She was…read morecheery, hospitable, and informative during both our wait and our service. We waited about 20 mins for a table for 2 on a Thursday evening, but that felt like no issue with the level of service she provided us.

HIDDEN GEM in Brookline. I must have walked past it several times and not noticed it until my…read morefriend introduced me to it. They do both reservations and walk-ins but it's safer to make a reservation ahead if you can. It's pretty easy to make one as well; we only booked a day ahead for a Friday night. Amazing first impressions as well. They make a tiny space work perfectly; I did not feel claustrophobic at all even with full house. They have really cute decors and the space is decorated well. They have their seasonal cocktails that you can choose your choice of liquor for and martinis (both vodka and gin). They brew their espresso fresh as well so the space smells so good every time it is brewed. I got a Peru Plunder and it was fruity and light (a dangerous one). Their apple pie old fashioned has an interesting aftertaste in a good way. The bartender and the server were attentive and friendly as well. I had a great time and will definitely be coming back. -9.1/10

My friends and I like to try tiki bars when we travel. After doing so research, it seems that this…read morewas our best option! We were there at the end of September and they had started to decorate for Halloween. It was cool to get a preview. The decor is everything at this place and they did a great job even if the place is very big! They have stuff everywhere without making it tacky. The only spot that was a bit of a let down was the bathroom. They have excellent drinkware with different glasses for each drinks. You can purchase most of them as well. As I said before, I have been around a fair amount of tiki bars, so here is my review of the cocktails. They were good but not exceptional for that price range. I tried four total and they tended to be a bit one note (sweet or bitter). They rely a lot on the cool cups but lack garnishes. I like my drinks with lots of trinkets and pieces of fruits! I did enjoy that they had a unique Asian twists on some classics. Our waitress was fine but didn't seem to fit the theme.

A small, relaxed bar. Good for grabbing a quick drink to kill time and just relax. It's cash only!…read moreThere was only one guy at the bar to make drinks, take orders, and serve food but he did a fine job. I got the dry cider and it was adequate but has a strange sour after taste. For food had the tomato soup with grilled cheese. It was delicious and ofc the two pair each other well. My boyfriend got the chicken rice plate. The chicken was a bit dry and overall plate a bit bland but he poured some of my tomato soup on it to add flavor to the chicken. The price of this place isn't too bad either. I would come back for the grilled cheese and tomato soup.
