Brendan Behan Pub
This classic Irish pub is named after Brendan Behan, an Irish writer and notorious booze-lover. Guinness headlines a large list of draft and bottled brews at this Irish pub with regular live music; It's a space where modernity meets old Irish tradition. It's no wonder that Boston Magazine honored the pub four times with the title of "Best Irish Bar in Boston." Whether you're feeling thirsty or just in the mood to hang around some good vibes, this pub caters to everyone (including dogs)!

The Behan has long been the place to go for a quick pint in the nearby suburb of Jamaica Plain. Named after the Irish Republican poet, novelist, and playwright, this dimly lit, cozy neighborhood spot is quaint, friendly, and increasingly hip. There are no TVs and no kitchen, but you can bring your own food into the establishment (you can even bring your dog). If you’re looking for a pint amongst locals and without the multitudes of tourists, stop by the Behan. Few places are as comfortable and as welcoming.
