Cheers to New Full Liquor Licenses in the Neighborhood

Big news for Boston’s restaurant scene: more spots are getting an upgrade to their drink menus.

Last week, the Boston Licensing Board approved local restaurants across the city to go from beer and wine to full all-alcohol service.

According to recent approvals, 10 restaurants are making the jump, including:

North End: Table, Alden & Harlow’s North End outpost, and Benevento’s
Beacon Hill: Zurito and Willie’s
South Boston: Roza Lyons
East Boston: Billares Colombia, Bohemios, and Mi Pueblito
Seaport: Row 34 and Yankee Lobster

The upgrade means these restaurants can now serve the full lineup of cocktails—so yes, your espresso martinis and margaritas are officially on the table.

Also worth noting: a new beer-and-wine license was approved for Superstar Cuisine in Hyde Park.

    Hi Maureen, thank you for all this information involving our community. It’s good news.

    Not sure where I should go with this but it’s starting, today with our great weather on 5/5,
    I can hear the motorcycles, mini cycles, mini bikes and etc, going up and down the beach road towards Castle Island and along Farragut Road and being loud as they can be. This is not right and we are just starting this summer season. Any suggestions?

      I recommend reaching out to City Councilor Ed Flynn’s office and Senator Nick Collins’ office.
