“This place is really cool. In a hotel. Very dimly lit. The place was packed when me and my husband went. We were going for drinks only so we tried to get a seat at the bar. The bar tender! Wow he deserves a raise. He was so kind to us, came around the bar after making our drinks to serve us and let us know we are next to get seats at the bar. Once someone got up and another girl tried to snag the seat the bar tender quickly prompted her to get up and that we had been waiting. Every drink was superb. Ugh I wish I could remember the bartenders name. He was the highlight of the night. He was very passionate about craft quality cocktails and even told us he competes in high stakes cocktail competitions.”
“My husband and I frequent "The Street Bar", and we unfortunately cannot go out to eat anywhere else any longer! No where else in Boston is there such a stellar experience from start-to-finish - specifically, on behalf of the lovely Conch! Conch is truly peerless in how thoughtful, proactive, and seamless she makes service at The Street Bar each and every visit. She is incredibly knowledgeable regarding offerings, and without fail always has thoughtful recommendations. Conch and The Street Bar team are truly head-and-shoulders above the rest - the hospitality experience is a "cannot miss" whether you are visiting with the hotel, looking for after-work cocktails, or a polished dinner! It's our perennial "go-to" favorite spot. Thank you, Conch!”
“I truly enjoyed the atmosphere and food at The Street Bar — it feels elegant and timeless, with a classic old-school charm that makes you want to linger. The rich wood details, glowing fireplace, and plush seating create a warm, intimate setting that’s perfect for relaxing with a drink and meaningful conversation. Sitting near the windows overlooking the Public Garden made the experience feel even more special. The food was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. From the manager to the servers, the staff was attentive and welcoming, making the entire evening feel seamless and memorable. It’s definitely a place I look forward to returning to — whether for cocktails with friends or a cozy night out.”
“The burger wasn’t enormous, but it was VERY good. Every bite had a little bit of everything. The martini was premade, but I actually love that. I think it creates for a more consistent experience. The bartender was very attentive. I was there on a Friday around 6, but that didn’t stop him from chatting with me while making drinks.”
“My husband and I stayed at Newbury, and we went here every day, if not twice, some days. We just really enjoyed the laid-back and classy ambiance. Not jam-packed with kids or young kids but more of an older crowd. We had no problems with finding a spot to sit and grabbing cocktails and appetizers. We tried their deviled eggs and oysters, which were delicious. You really can't go wrong with any of the cocktails there. Our service was top notch each time we went. G, Tyler, and there was another bartender from Bulgaria, and I didn't catch her name. They were all great and made great recommendations.”
