The Tall Man and I were looking for a low key hangout with baby in tow, and Distraction Brewing was…read morethe perfect place. This new-to-us brewery on the cute pedestrian-only Birch St. had an outdoor patio but we opted for seats inside. It's not a big place, but it has a good number of tables and bench seating in a brightly lit space. The Tall Man got the autumn flight of 4 beers (one being one of their maltinis), which he enjoyed for their variety. I wasn't up for imbibing so I got a Health-Aid kombucha from the fridge. (They also carry Athlete's nonalcoholic beer in cans.) They have some packaged snacks for purchase, but they encourage people to get food from local businesses to eat there. It was pretty darn convenient to pick up lunch from nearby Chilacates. It made for a very chill lunch and sip. We weren't even the only ones with a stroller! It was a relief to find a brewery that's not utterly mobbed and where we could bring the little one. I would definitely come back for another relaxing hangout.

Tucked right on Centre Street in West Roxbury, it offers the kind of relaxed pub vibe that makes you want to linger for one more drink or dessert. The bar has an impressive craft beer list and a solid wine selection, and the cocktails are mixed with care--never rushed, always balanced. The food goes well beyond standard pub fare. The pasta dishes are fresh and flavorful, and the burgers are consistently juicy and well-seasoned. Daily specials often surprise with some bistro-level creativity. Service is warm and genuinely friendly, with staff who seem to know the regulars by name. Whether you're dropping in for a casual dinner, a quiet drink, or catching up with friends at the bar, Porter Café always feels welcoming. For anyone in West Roxbury or the surrounding area looking for great food, a comfortable atmosphere, and excellent service, Porter Café never disappoints.

After learning what haggis was made of, I decided to go for the fish supper. It's been a minute since I've had fish and chips, and the fact that this dish came with mushy peas sealed the deal. We started with the scotch egg and I had a native lager on the side. I'm off the deer train, but they sell deep fried Mars bars.. yummm Service was nice and attentive; we sat at a high top near the bar. The place was comfortably crowded and had a very nice atmosphere. I would say I don't make it to JP all that often, but I've been there now twice in two weeks so I don't really have an excuse to say I'm unlikely to return to the spot in the near term.

While certainly not the Henry's of my childhood nostalgia, any unrealistic disappointment owing to…read moresuch may be cancelled out by the current bias of having the place within eyeshot of my front door. This place is your above-average corner quick mart. Three-and-a-half stars might be more appropriate. A bit more spacious, a bit more well lit, and a bit cleaner than one would normally expect - this place starts out above par but add the beer and wine license and it definitely pushes it well above convenience store mediocrity. You won't be wowed by anything in here - there is nothing too unusual or exceptional, however it is large enough to offer a bit of a wider selection. No one is very friendly here however service certainly isn't rude or poor, and while you may be able to count on some cross-eyed looks from Keno patrons, it never extends to the point of feeling uncomfortable. And the prices are pretty much fair market. Yes, your Lean Cuisine and Ben & Jerry's may cost you more than they would at Stop & Shop, but not exorbitantly so. And who expects big-box prices from a corner store? All in all, I am happy to have a place where I can leave my kitchen and be contentedly back there with some last-minute cream for coffee, milk for cereal, or wine for dinner all in under ten minutes and twenty bucks. Better still that it's coming from a clean, safe, small neighborhood business.

The day I went there was a band playing and there was special ticketed event that forced us to leave (no big deal as we had more than enough time). The space is huge, however compartmentalized, and there's plenty of outdoor seating. Because of its warehouse size and no sound proofing when the band was playing it was incredibly loud with tons of reverberation. The mezzanine is adults only which is helpful as it's right next door to an indoor sports facility and there is no shortage of kids here. Pizza was decent, cooked correctly and really hit the spot after a couple of beers. They utilize an "order at the bar and get a text when your food is ready" system. You then go up to the open air kitchen area and get your food. The beers are serviceable by today's standards with the porter being my favorite. The lagers were also pretty good. Like most folks on Yelp I was surprised by the mandatory 20% gratuity (almost $2 per beer). As someone that ordinarily tips 20-25% in a sit down restaurant I'm a little confused as to how in a place where you order at the counter, pick up your own food and bus your own table the 20% is earned? These situations usually get 10% gratuity from me since I'm doing more than 50% of the work.
