Expect antique furniture, a darkened underground vibe, plenty of brown spirits, and cocktails from before cocktails were cocktails -- plus lots and lots of meat on wooden blocks.

Stuff your face with beer-battered pickled peppers packed w/ Boursin and 16 beer taps. There, your night is planned. You can thank us later.

Though it's not Whiskey, the Brown Derby cocktail is brilliantly made. Great for first-timers.

Try the "Ward 44," a delicious blend of grenadine and pork belly whiskey. The mixture of savory pork and sweet cherry flavors is equivalent to a party in your mouth.

Collin is my favourite bartender. He liked my smile and he was just 100% friendly and professional. Ask for him- and tell him a Girl with a nice smile off to London recommended him.

Bringing a splash of 1920s glamour to pub-filled Davis Square, Saloon’s bartenders wear suspenders and ties, while waitresses sport jazzy cocktail dresses.

The Oaxcan Old Fashioned is wicked awesome. But don't get it as the first drink unless that's the only drink you intend to savor.

Great for night-caps & trying new cocktails, but skip the food -- not as yummy as you'd want it to be
