The Tam on Tremont Street is the Theater District Irish dive with a cheap pour, a long bar, an unmovable jukebox and a 02:00 close every night of the week.

Tip: $4 well drinks before 21:00 most weeknights. Cash gets the friendlier nod; the back of the bar holds the regular crowd.

222 Tremont St, Boston, MA 02116

Highland Kitchen ★ 4.5

Highland Kitchen on Highland Avenue has poured craft cocktails and Southern-leaning American comfort food in Somerville since 2007. Upscale dive feel, no reservations, a killer jukebox and a 01:00 last call.

Tip: Kitchen closes 22:00, bar runs to 01:00. Mai Tai is the canonical order; the back booth fills first on weekends.

150 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA 02143

Charlie's Kitchen ★ 4.2

Charlie's Kitchen on Eliot Street has run a Harvard Square dive since 1951. Diner-counter cheeseburgers downstairs, college bar upstairs and a beer garden out the back. Cheap, dark and unbothered.

Tip: Double cheeseburger and a tall PBR is the order. Upstairs bar runs late; the beer garden opens spring through autumn.

10 Eliot St, Cambridge, MA 02138

Miracle of Science Bar + Grill ★ 4.2

Miracle of Science on Mass Ave has run a science-themed neighbourhood bar in Central Square since 1991. Periodic-table chalkboard menu, the Ronie burger, a clientele that mixes MIT regulars and dive-bar holdouts.

Tip: Order from the chalkboard, not a paper menu. The patio opens in spring; the bar closes 01:00 every night.

321 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139

Silhouette Lounge on Brighton Avenue has poured cheap pitchers since 1965, named Best Dive Bar by Boston Magazine. Free popcorn, $7 pitchers, dart boards, pool, Big Buck Hunter and a jukebox heavy on classic rock.

Tip: Cash for the cheap rounds. Tuesdays bring the locals; weekend nights fill with BU students through closing.

200 Brighton Ave, Allston, MA 02134

Royale ★ 4.2

$$$beacon-hill{'monday': 'closed', 'tuesday': 'closed', 'wednesday': 'varies by event', 'thursday': 'varies by event', 'friday': '22:00-02:00', 'saturday': '22:00-02:00', 'sunday': 'varies by event'}

Royale on Tremont Street is Boston's downtown megaclub, a converted 1918 grand ballroom inside the Courtyard Marriott that runs Latin EDM, K-pop, bass and indie touring bookings.

Tip: Doors typically 22:00, lines build by 23:00. Buy advance tickets for marquee Friday or Saturday DJ nights to skip the box-office queue.
