Mass Ave Stumble

Created by: jawalker33

Back in the day, this Thursday night pub crawl would have made Friday's at the office a lot less fun...In between Harvard Square and Central Square, we used to try to end the evening with dancing and naked poker machines at the Cantab. Unfortunately, we usually wound up retracing our steps to finish the morning off with scorpion bowls and plastic monkeys at the Hong Kong. Those were the days. Who's in for a trip down glory road -- Mass Ave?

  • The Garden at the Cellar

    1

    991 Massachusetts Ave

    Cambridge, MA 02138

    Tel: (617) 230-5880

    Traditional American | Neighborhood Bar

    Welcome to the Garden!

    The Cellar - as it is known by those who visit frequently is downstairs and used to be a smoke-filled basement. It is now a lot nicer. Start here around 9 pm. Order one of their great European beers on tap. Make sure you tell the bartender your name. He'll remember it -- one of the best bartenders in Boston.

  • The Plough & Stars

    2

    912 Massachusetts Ave

    Cambridge, MA 02139

    Tel: (617) 576-0032

    Irish Pub

    Head here after the Cellar and continue on with the beer drinking. Tight quarters, so you won't stay long, but it's a great pit stop on the way to People's Republik.

  • People's Republik

    3

    876 Massachusetts Ave

    Cambridge, MA 02139

    Tel: (617) 492-8632

    Hot Dog | Neighborhood Bar

    Short walk from The Plough, so you'll have just enough fresh air to fire up your energy for a game of darts. Bar is much larger than The Plough so you can hang here and switch to the hard stuff.

  • Cantab Lounge

    4

    738 Massachusetts Ave

    Cambridge, MA 02139

    Tel: (617) 354-2685

    Live Music | Dive Bar

    Candy's Blues, Jazz & Rock

    Little Joe Cook and a bunch of other legendary live music make this a great way to shake off the booze. I'd stay away from the hard alcohol here. Work the plastic bottled Bud Lights. Can't have'm breaking on the dance floor.

  • Hong Kong

    5

    1238 Massachusetts Ave

    Cambridge, MA 02138

    Tel: (617) 864-5311

    Chinese | Dive Bar

    Hong Kong

    The picture says it all. That's a bowl that will make the cab ride home too long.

I guess no one ever told you "liquor before beer and you're in the clear." The Cellar and People's are must-stops on any pub crawl of Cambridge.
