Boston’s Snowpocalypse has made us all a little stir crazy the past few weeks. Now that the worst storms appear to be behind us (knock on wood!), grab your roomies and head out for a night of food and fun. These restaurants, located in some of Boston’s best neighborhoods, offer one-two punches of amazing food and quality entertainment. Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on any of these!
Area Four – Cambridge
Love yourself some gourmet pizza? Channel your inner geek and get your Big Bang Theory on with giant Jenga at Area Four, happening on the 3rd Monday of every month. $10 at the door gets you some truly delicious pizza and a drink ticket. Perfect for group outings with your besties and an excuse to go exploring a new part of the city you may not be familiar with!
The Breakfast Club – Allston/Brighton
Who doesn’t love breakfast food and snarky pop culture references? That’s right, no one. Run, don’t walk, to The Breakfast Club! Located in Allston, the local favorite is changing things up from their usual breakfast/lunch offerings this spring and throwing themed breakfast for dinner events (by reservation only). Beginning at 6PM on the first Monday of the month in March, April and May, each dinner will feature four courses of The Breakfast Club’s playful seasonal specials along with Mimosas using the diner’s fresh-squeezed orange juice and Narragansett Autocrat Coffee Milk Stout for imbibing. Being bad never tasted so good! Tickets are $35 for the meal, alcohol additional. Don’t hesitate, buy your tickets here: http://www.eventbrite.com/e/breakfast-for-dinner-series-tickets-15498852485. You know they’re going to go quick!
Battery Park – Financial District
If you’re stuck on campus (you know you have been thanks to the never-ending snowglobe we live in…) take a study break and grab your friends for Monday night trivia at Battery Park, conveniently located a short walk from Emerson. Spend the afternoon thinking of a killer team name and be ready for the action to start at 7PM. With a mouthwatering bar menu of Skillet Nachos, Mac & Cheese bites, Pulled Pork Tacos and much more and a wide selection of beers on tap, you’ve got all the brain fuel you need!
