DEEP ELLUM: AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE FOR BEER AND COCKTAIL LOVERS

Written by MARC HURWITZ Posted August 1, 2018 Filed Under: Drinks, Eats, LIFESTYLE

The word “gastropub” gets bandied about way too often these days, but this Cambridge Street establishment is in some ways your classic gastropub that’s worthy of the title, and one that’s more unpretentious and unassuming than some of the newer options out there.

ATWOOD’S TAVERN, CAMBRIDGE: FOOD, BEER, AND MUSIC IN A RUSTIC SPACE

Written by MARC HURWITZ Posted September 5, 2017 Filed Under: Eats, LIFESTYLE

Well, it’s none of these, really, instead being a good, solid, midlevel place that oozes charm inside, with lots of dark woods, a bar that looks like it has seen its share of history, a small stage in the back that is integrated nicely with the rest of the space, and a hidden side patio that is accessed by a door beyond the bar.

Too often you hear that the Boston area doesn’t have any good Mexican restaurants, and while it is true that we aren’t exactly San Diego, Los Angeles, or San Antonio when it comes to options for Mexican food, there are plenty of great places to head to in and around the city.
