Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near Washington Square, Brookline

Alex B. • April 17, 2016Sit at the bar (and charge your phone). We had the meatball/ricotta and buffalo/bacon pizzas with a couple of fantastic local brews. Great and necessary addition to the Washington Sq. area.

Kara L. • June 15, 2013A true gem in Brookline. Sit out on the patio and order the spicy eggplant caponata and wild bass crudo. And have one or several glasses of wine.

Calvin C. • October 16, 2010It can get cramped and obnoxiously loud, but the food is great with a nice selection of craft brews. The mussels topped with fries is excellent!

Garrett L. • August 25, 2011Everything is good but the Mac and cheese is out of this world!
