This place is a better venue than it is a bar. They pull a lot of below-the-radar bands along with a ton of local talent. Every Night there is music, usually live, and if not live, at least live dj's. Friday night is the dance extravaganza known as "The Pill", usually brit pop and indie anthems get the party going. They have Tall Boy Cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon as well as good beers like bass and strongbow cider on tap. Summertime they do have a patio open in front, which overlooks the worst constructed intersection in Boston, Commonwealth Ave. and Harvard Ave. That also makes it a good place to people watch. Most annoying...all the real estate agencies around. Best part...getting in for free when your friend's band put you on the list.
