While typically known for the college scene (I have been in a few times late on Friday or Saturday - packed with Tufts students), the Joshua Tree is no mere meat market. Food is above average pub fare, with great specials - I had the Cajun rainbow trout with mango salsa. Service is good, but staff seems to be very busy, so come early for the most attention. Overall, very much a friendly place with staff and regulars who are pleasant and willing to get to know you, and what you drink. Tons of beer on tap, too.
Pros: Friendly staff, Great food, Attractive people
Cons: Can be very busy, College crowd
