    They recently, in the last year or so, finally expanded their craft beer menu and it's much larger and better. It also rotates pretty well. I am happy again.

    Hill Tavern burger, worth it @ $10 but add a sunny side up egg $1, big serving of tasty bacon $1, cheddar & avocado at $1 each w/ a side salad of mixed greens. Mhm, one of the best burgers in Boston!

    This place has heart. I'll leave it at that. If you don't want to know anything about your bartender, have a personal drink or feel at home, walk down to Harvard Gardens.

    Can be a little intimidating if you're looking for seating b/c there isn't always a hostess. If it's empty, seat yourself. Crowded: wait at the front door. Don't worry, someone will come get you!

    They always play the best music here. Great food, especially the spinach dip. Also an awesome spot for brunch on the weekends.

    Make a reservation if you're a large party, they can hold a table for you in the back.

    Great laidback bar with good beer selection. Try the tomato/mozz/avocado/carmelized onion sandwich (not available during brunch, sadly), it is delicious.

    Their spinach dip used to be awesome because it came with pieces of toasted, sliced baguette. Instead they now use crappy tortilla chips. Not nearly as good.

    Head there between 4 and 6PM to take advantage of their happy hour food menu (wings, chicken tenders, fries, etc...) and grab a nice, cold beer while you're at it as well
