Overall, the bars around Faneuil Hall Marketplace are a mixed bag catering to tourists and locals alike. On one hand you have the painfully contrived Cheers replica bar in the marketplace itself and local favorites you can only find word-of-mouth.
Somewhere in the middle is the historic Bell In Hand Tavern. Located adjacent to landmarks like the Union Oyster House, The Holocaust Memorial, and City Hall, The Bell In Hand is the oldest continually operated bar in the USA. Founded in 1795, the tavern features a five bars and live music seven nights a week. It has the rare distinction of attracting both tourists with its history and locals with its undeniable authenticity.
If you’re thirsty, looking for things to do in Boston, and are around Faneuil Hall, skip Cheers and go to a genuine Boston institution.
