Best Boston Drinks
Bleacher Bar
82A Lansdowne St, Boston, MA
If you’re going to Fenway’s post-race party anyway, you might as well stop by Bleacher Bar too. Located under the centerfield bleachers, the bar occupies space formerly used as the visiting team’s batting cage. Consistent with Fenway’s historic and intimate atmosphere, Bleacher Bar features a large window with playing-surface-level views of centerfield. Do you have another favorite Boston watering hole?
