Cole Kennedy: Super cool vibe. Like, seriously good design. So much better than most rock clubs. Also a killer lineup of music (and beers).
Boston.com: Drink a Kentucky Luau: bourbon with hints of cinnamon, pineapple, and best of all, a floral scent that will leave you craving for more. Try it on the new roof deck. Read more.
Thrillist: After taking down some heavenly deviled eggs with crispy bacon bits and a trio of pastrami'd pork belly sliders, you'll want to take matters into your own hands with the Sinclair Burger. Read more.
