  • The outstanding jukebox plays steadily during the week, a DJ spins R&B, reggae, and hip-hop on the weekend, and live jazz and blues start every Sunday at 7pm. Biarritz vies for a place as Roxbury’s hippest night spot.

  • Despite nightly live music (you name it, they program it) and hardcore dance DJs on Saturdays, Bill’s regulars view it as a place to drink first and dance later.

  • Black Rose

    This pub has all the good points of a bar in Dublin’s Temple Bar – Guinness, Harp, darts – along with the shortcomings (loud music and too many tourists).

  • This sleek, modern lounge has quickly made a name for itself among cocktail aficionados for its addictive espresso martini.

  • On weekends this watering hole is packed both inside and outside in the garden – it’s a typical beer-drinking, South Boston singles scene. Modern pub food hits a fairly high mark.

  • This cavernous brew pub specializes in lighter American ales and serves giant plates of ribs and chicken that can easily feed two ravenous Red Sox fans.

  • Don your Red Sox cap and sip a light Fenway Pale at Beer Works (see Boston Beer Works).

  • Top brand liquors and an extensive martini menu set BBC apart from less swanky pool halls. Clientele ranges from fraternity boys to young lawyers.

  • A doorway-mounted wooden eagle has welcomed gay men to this subterranean South End bar for years. Having no qualms about simply being a gay bar, the Eagle is not a place to dance. The dimly lit bar area is roomy and comfortable; in the back, a mirrored wall captures pool sharks and pinball wizards at work.

  • This classic “new” Irish pub, frequented by cheerful neighborhood types with vaguely poetic pretensions, is properly outfitted with Guinness and Murphy’s on tap and live music most nights.
