From the Wayland folks comes very solid cocktails -- everything with fresh veggies and fruits were particularly good -- and legitimately tasty bar food like a "pastrami" fish sandwich. Solid value.

ZenFoodsterSeptember 13, 2017HH Mon-Fri's 4-7pm: $1 East (mostly) & West coast oysters (some) off of menu selection of 10 varieties, 65¢ raw clams + $8 cocktails & beers. Fresh oysters (lil' sand), cocktail shrimp+steamed clams!
Happy hour, interesting cocktails and excellent oysters. Everyone's super nice. Happy hour daiquiris.
Alex HunterMarch 7, 2022Cozy decor and filled with natural light. When the weather starts to warm up they open a bunch of windows. Repping Time is citrusy and not too sweet. Ask about the weekly frozen!
- Jessica WickhamMarch 26, 2017Fantastic cocktails, good interesting twists on the classics like margaritas with orange bitters, lime, agave and chili salt. Sit at the bar and enjoy a cocktail afternoon watching the world go by
Billy JacobsonJanuary 6, 2017Got the Agave Blues, mezcal, blueberry, and lemon. Was super spicy and delicious. Kinda busy on a Thursday evening, but there was room at the bar and 2-3 small tables available.
Derek T. KuAugust 4, 2017Happy hour oysters are 1 dollar. Usually they have 12-14 selections on the menu. The ambience feels old-timey but cozy.
Fabian MartinJuly 22, 2022Good drinks good vibes. But loud but it is what it is. Try the making love at midnight cocktail
Ina LiJune 14, 2016A bit loud in general but good drinks and gets more chill towards the later of the night
Clara EloyJuly 22, 2022The cocktails were good, it’s a bit pricey though. The place is nice but is a literal oven in the summer and has limited seats
Feels like the Wayland but is more central. Great old fashioned cocktail and space. Come for a great drink and fun crowd.
Emilie FuttermanNovember 21, 2015Can get crowded. Yummy cocktails and friendly staff. Great cozy vibe on a rainy night.
Samantha JoApril 7, 2017Go for the oyster happy hour and the work shift drink. Came here on a snow day and it felt so homey.
SaleemJuly 25, 2015A second venture from the Wayland people. -20% ambiance, +30% location. Better than other bars on its block, give it a try.
Alex FishOctober 5, 2015Great for date night with some cocktails. Get the green juice cocktail, surprisingly delicious
Bond StreetOctober 19, 2016"Goodnight Sonny is actually the best place to eat after 2 AM. There’s no other spot like it. This is the late night joint." Scarr and Los Franco, co-founders - Scarr’s Pizza Read more
Meg FarmerOctober 25, 2016Can get pretty crowded on the wkend, which definitely impacts the level of service. Sonny's cup is a safe bet.- Alex RobertsonJanuary 13, 2019it’s by the Wayland people, so of course the cocktail was good. not much else to draw me in personally though
Nate SJuly 21, 2018Brunch review only: the food was incredibly meh, barely finished the meal. The cocktails were on point. Will definitely try again for drinks, skip for meals.
- Ruby AnayaOctober 24, 2015Everything you need - good cocktails, tasty snacks, and not too loud. Plus - oysters!
EyeJuly 29, 2016Can get a little crowded during happy hour and all parties need to be present for seating - but otherwise great place!
Solid cocktails like the Mezcal-based blue agave and the margarita
Alex AlbertMay 2, 2022Playlist was good, oysters and salad was top tier and huge!!! Staff was so so friendly
Stephanie MSeptember 8, 2015Wonderful cocktails but what most impressed me were the oysters surprisingly.
Kayleigh HarringtonAugust 4, 2016The dill and gin cocktail with a salt and pepper rim is delicious. Great ambiance for drinks with friends.- CarolineMay 9, 2017From crew at Wayland. Light streams in from Windows. Seasonal cocktails and good raw bar
Vishal ShahAugust 21, 2016Was here on Sat night. Great service and drinks. It didn't hurt that they were playing 90s hip hop.
- Chiara MartiniSeptember 19, 2016This is the kind of place that I though it was a regular bar but came out as a place full of surprises.
- I've gone back recently after an average feel following the open and the vibe has improved significantly. Good work, GNS!
Matt RussellNovember 21, 2015Mayflower Sour - all the things: blourbon, butternut squash, lemon, egg white
Maveric VuOctober 29, 2015Ok, book pages as coasters. A bit contrived, but the page was quite thrilling.
