1. Woody's Bar & Tap

58 Hemenway St, Boston, MA 02115 · 617-375-9663

User Rating:  Rating: 4 / 5   (Rate It)

FENWAY DISTRICT. Woody's serves as both an ideal lunch spot and a great nightlife option. This bar makes a mean thin-crust pizza that's cooked to perfection on a wood-fired oven. In fact, these pizzas have become legendary with local baseball regulars and symphony goers. Order toppings that run the gamut, from goat cheese to arugula and jerk chicken. Full bar provides a variety of options with approximately 18 beers on tap. The interior is pleasant, featuring yellow walls, blue accents, and lovely wood trim.

2. Cantab Lounge

738 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139 · 617-354-2685

CAMBRIDGE. Lead performer Little Joe Cook keeps this lounge hopping while setting the pace with bluegrass and R&B favorites, like the house anthem, "Down at the Cantab." Monday nights are open mic night, and Wednesdays and Sundays are dedicated to blues. In addition, poetry readings are held downstairs in the Third Rail room. The lounge kitchen serves up tasty bar food – wings, fries, potato skins, burgers, and chicken.

3. Scullers Jazz Club

400 Soldiers Field Rd, Doubletree Guest Suites, Allston, MA 02134 · 617-562-4111

BRIGHTON. The widely popular Scullers Jazz Club is located in the Doubletree Hotel and provides live entertainment from popular jazz acts. Visitors enjoy having a drink and an appetizer while taking in one of the two nightly shows. The relaxed atmosphere provides for an enjoyable and some would say romantic evening. A full menu offers tasty cuisine, and the dining room provides a great view of the Charles river.

4. Top of the Hub

800 Boylston St, Prudential Center, Boston, MA 02199 · 617-536-1775

BACK BAY. Perched atop the Prudential Tower, this restaurant/lounge offers great nightlife. Come after work to enjoy a drink and a fine meal in elegant surroundings, complete with expert service, linen-covered tables, and the best views in the city. Strains of jazz music provide an excellent backdrop to the lovely scene. The dining room also offers an outstanding Sunday brunch.

5. The Roxy

279 Tremont St, Roxyplex, Boston, MA 02116-5611 · 617-338-7699

User Rating:  Rating: 3 / 5   (Rate It)

THEATRE DISTRICT. If you're in the mood to move, this is the place to be. Friday night techno music provides a continuous beat and an energetic atmosphere, and seven bars and a balcony allow dancers to catch their breath. Reggae and swing nights number among the weekly theme nights, and the place even presents magic shows on occasion. More than just a bump-n-grind joint, though, the Roxy is also a well-respected live music venue ... one that has hosted everything from rappers to alternative rockers. T-shirts, jeans, and tennis shoes are not allowed, so make sure you're dressed in smart casual attire or trendy attire.

6. Wonder Bar

186 Harvard Ave, Allston, MA 02134 · 617-351-2665

User Rating:  Rating: 3 / 5   (Rate It)

My Suitcase:   (Add to My Suitcase)

BRIGHTON. Wonder Bar holds guests to a higher standard of dress than most area bars and sports an up-and-coming attitude. The interior features a striking black-and-white floor and exposed brick walls. Live jazz musicians entertain guests, many of whom are either on a hot date or on the prowl for one! The bar features great drinks, including a collection of martinis and above average eats—from pizzas to sandwiches and tapas-style appetizers. And, their homemade chocolate chip cookies are legendary!
