Beautiful people.
Not my crowd, but if your a gaymer you will call this place home.
This is a good place to have couple driks Very welcoming and friendly staff..
The bar tenders were ABSOLUTELY amazing and made my experience such an enjoyable one!
I was racially profiled
Nasty, moody bartenders after the Pride Parade. Extremely busy bar and staffed with 1 bar back and 2 bartenders. Maybe they didn't realize it was Pride (?!) I only tipped because I wanted to be waited on for a second time and not be ignored. I witnessed a tattoo-covered bartender being rude to most customers he waited on. Went back in the evening and they had changed shifts and the new bartenders were excellent and smiling.
Always a friendly crowd and great management!
Maybe a good bar, but because I could not show any ID, entrance was denied. I'm 59 years old, so don't see any need for walking around with ID. why? I'm from Europe, so maybe there is something I don't understand. I was last night in the Eagle, ID not required..11:16 pm : Thanks for your quick reply. I'm still in the area. I Will put the Alley on my to-do list for tomorrow, Sunday./Kim Kristensen, Copenhagen
SUPER IMPORTANT UPDATE: They fixed the spelling on their sign, so as promised, here's that fifth star. Stay awesome, Palms Car Wash! Amazing .
This place has been a lot of fun on a few occasions. The staff is very friendly and good humored. Ru Paul on Thursday nights is a riot. The upstairs has a second bar and dancing usually after 10 or 10:30, but it’s not always packed so I wouldn’t call this a dancing destination. The downstairs has a mix of tables, seating, and plenty of bar space. The restrooms are nice clean (well, they start off that way at least). Clientele appears to be mostly middle aged, with lots of bears, but there is a solid variety of folks on busy nights. Definitely recommended to try out on a Friday or Saturday night if you’ve never been.
Good local gay bar. Tends to be a bit on the older side, and definitely more bear-ish, but everyone is welcome. Drinks are STRONG.
Nice place to hangout with friends during the week, and great place to party during weekend
Shity place The worst gay bar ever
Always a great time. My favorite bar in Boston, hands down.
2017 and still CASH ONLY?!WTF?! 😡😡😡
I wouldn't necessarily call it a bar. It's more of a club. Fun atmosphere but they need better music or a new DJ.
Great people behind the bar and in the bar never seen any trouble in the bar.
My two amazing friends brought me here on 8/29/19 on my first night in Boston of my trip. It was surely a positive experience once I walked in and knew this was the establishment to be at. Great patrons and everyone is so warm and welcoming. Couple of the guys smiled at me and there was one guy in particular who was so warm towards me, a cuddly bear who was wearing a white rainbow striped lined tank top, he was so nice and he was always smiling at me. That's when I knew this was the establishment to be with friends. I Highly Recommend The Alley Bar where you can be yourself, meet awesome men, and have great drinks. Cheers!
Wouldn't even go here for last call
Overall good fun, Winston and Rocco are great
Nice place to hang out for a drink. It's CASH ONLY and their ATM is probably ripping you off, but prices are on the low side which is nice. They have a big floor upstairs but I haven't been up there. Older crowd typically though, it seems.
Nice bear-ey cave. Cash only. Fun peeps. The remodel helped, but it lost some of its dirty appeal.
Great bar, Rocco bar tender top of his class. All Bar Tenders should take a page from this guys play book, if your straight or gay he will give you a lesson in life, respect, and love of his customers and entertainer of the the year. Rocco you carry on as you and keep the Alley top notch... you friends from California Jeff and Caren the only lady you bought flowers for from California. CLASS ACT ROCCO.
So many great memories from here. I met my husband on one of the nights out. Great gay spot in Boston. Highly recommended.
The Alley Bar is the most 'Bear Bar' in town, holding their very popular "Bear Central" every Saturday night, great karaoke on Sunday nights, all the games on their huge screen, numerous special events, community fundraisers, leather club nights, and The Alley is where the MASS BAY BEARS host the annual Mr. New England Bear & Cub Contest. Oh, and on top of all of that they have discounted parking in the garage next door, a great thing in Boston.
The new cocktail options and the Sunday bar staff made for a comfortable and fun experience. Much better than previous visits where the staff can make you feel less than welcome.
Gay bar aimed at the "bear" community but be aware that they often have special nights featuring Princess oriented themes like drag parties. So not strictly speaking a bear bar at all. Good selection of craft beers. Cash only for some odd reason.
This great off-the-beaten path bar and gay landmark is a great place to grab a drink and relax a bit. You can check their facebook for special event nights during your visit. Open til 2am every night which is nice. The scene is focused on bears but all seem welcome .
Always a great time here, one of my favorite hangouts
Awesome
This club has a little of everything, but most of all very friendly, many different drinks on specially a selection of draft beers and very organized and clean.
great gay bar; i should know.
Good bar and welcomed me... Straight guy. It was a chill happy hour.
Great place but be afraid to say NO to a drink! Even if you have medical conditions.. Fate one .. If not consuming YOU ARE OUT! As I told him, you do no understand yet - You Are Exercising "The Bartender" ... Can't serve when Told NO to another beer ...
Very nice
Great place to go bear hunting
Walked up and was instantly turned away. I was with two straight friends. Yes, I am Masc, but was instantly turned away. Screw the rest of the gay community... and we wonder why people disrespect us. Show respect to get respect! Never will I ever recommend this place ever!
One of a few local gay bars in Boston. Always a good crowd that leans more toward the "bear" type. The main floor has a good size bar and pool table. Several TVs around have anything from sports to news playing. The atmosphere and decor are not the cleanest around. Forget the five second rule here if you drop something on the floor. Bathrooms have a funky smell that sometimes reached out to the bar area. The bathrooms are also in need of some major repairs. A second floor is opened on weekends later in the evening that has another pool table and bars. A small dance area with DJ are also up here. You are likely to go here for the crowd not the atmosphere or decor.
Very cool place!
Secrets
The change over time has been awesome. And Rocking Joe on Friday and Saturday nights will give you spme awesome drinks as well as the other bartenders during the work week when ypu want to unwind before heading home.
Super friendly gay bear bar!
As the number of gay bars shrinks in Boston, the Alley still seems to be going strong. It has a basic friendly bearish crowd. The best times are 4-8pm on Fridays, Saturday night after 9 and Sunday beareoke after 6ish.
Came here after PAX East 2020 and it was a great experience. There were games playing on the TVs and a lively but chill dance floor upstairs. Great mix of people and friendly staff. Be aware that it's cash only.
great place. nice to know that my alley can get filled and getting it by the judges all week in lowell district court. thankfully my two partners dont know what i do. lol
Highly Recommended place! if you are in town you should totally visit this place!
Fun place. Nice bar staff and great mixed crowd. Big plus for the beer selection on draught! Great place in Boston!
