punk rock party 6/4/2006

O'briens is a pretty funny bar. You walk by on any given night and there's some other travelling band from wisconson's van sitting out front with a crowd of people loitering and smoking butts. The bar is old and smelly, it's got nothing going for it, except it's music scene. Mostly a haven for metal and punk, this place has been known to attract some artier acts...but not many. People here are looking to get drunk and hear some noise. Located next to a new tatoo shop, i can see the mistakes already. more

Good Dive Bar 2/5/2006

It's always nice to go to a good dive bar in Boston and O'brien's Pub is an excellent example of one. The typical decor consists of old pictures of Elvis and beat-up booths. This bar caters mostly to the area's blue-collar workers, but visitors without as much street credit can feel welcome here as well. Serving greasy bar food to this dingy atmosphere, this bar has lasted for generations with its no-frills philosophy. Bartenders and servers are suprisingly always friendly and are a contrast to the hard core look of this working class bar. more
