yea man, these are all things that have been great surprises since I moved to Portland - especially the happy hours. There are a lot of places in Boston that have last call at 1:45am - but still, I know what you're saying.

Not sure if there are any 1:45am Last Calls. Because I met up with my friends from Salem....and he said you might be able to find one at 12:30 :ohno:

I'm not saying All Irish People Drink ( But Most do ) But Mass is Mostly Irish ( I believe )
How Could they have Such Laws there ??? I just Don't Get ??

between all of the Colleges that are in the Boston Area ( even Mass as a Whole )
You would think....HELLO, there's Money to be made having the Bars Open Later.

The drinking laws are a lame.. no happy hour is bad. But you shoulda been able to get drinks past 12 especially around faneuil

When it comes to drinking - things are definitely screwed up here. Blame it on the Puritans. Many large supermarkets don't sell beer or wine. Many liquor stores still don't open on Sunday although that's changing.:drink:

I think Boston rocks and has some good people living there when you can find them.

Lived in Boston for 8 years, not only is there no happy hour, last call is like midnight.
WTF is that? Here in NYC we don't even start until midnight.

Having said that, it is a great city.

Boston getting a bad rap in this thread - i'm not trying to harp, but last call is 2am the begin with. While many places call it earlier, spots in heavy-traffic areas (anywhere by Fenway, anywhere on Comm Ave, around Quincy Market, North Station, or in the squares of Cambridge) are open and serving until 1:30am-1:45am.
