The Burren, Irish Pub and Restaurant in Somerville's Davis Square, is now one of Boston's truly unique places. It captures the mythical nature of its namesake with a rich old world feel that takes hold and slowly pulls you toward another time.

The Burren can truly be one of the best bars in Boston; there are nights with good music, good-hearted people just looking to relax and have a good time. My complaint is that its hit or miss too often. Whether its the students in town or the locals that just want to get trashed, the atmosphere changes and I generally leave. When its good its great and when its bad its awful. Take your chances.

The Burren has great music, especially Sunday nights up front. Also, they have a good weekend brunch, and a nice atmosphere. It's better to go when it is less crowded though, like a Sunday night or a weeknight.
