January 15 at 5pm +3
The Bosworth Restaurant + Bar · Downtown • $$
Slip into a leather booth and unwind with $10 bar snacks that punch above their weight: smashed burger sliders, tuna tacos, and crisp fries that disappear fast. The kitchen here treats happy hour like a real meal, not an afterthought.
January 18 at 5pm
Puritan Oyster Bar · Inman Square • $$$
Mondays just got a glow-up: $25 scores you a House Martini, half dozen oysters, and hot fries at this Cambridge oyster bar. A date-night steal that feels far fancier than the price tag.
January 19 at 4:30pm
OAK Long Bar + Kitchen · Prudential / St. Botolph • $$
Stroll Copley Square Farmers Market with a chef, then head back to OAK for a mixology session and a freshly prepared lunch using your market haul. You'll leave with a branded tote, recipe card, and a newfound appreciation for local ingredients.
January 17 at 10:30am
Lyrik · Fenway–Kenmore • Free
Little Groove brings outdoor, hands-on music classes to Lyrik. Infants, toddlers, and preschoolers are invited to learn and interact through sound, sight, and touch in a live music setting.
January 18 at 10:30pm
Central Rock Gym - Cambridge · Cambridge Highlands • Free
Try climbing without spending a dime. This weekly intro class teaches wall basics and movement, then sets you loose to keep climbing on your own.
Every day at 10pm
Parish Cafe & Bar · Back Bay • $$
Half-price sandwiches after 10 PM, each dreamed up by a different Boston chef. Grab a drink and feast on creative, stacked creations without the stacked bill.
January 18 at 4pm +2
Tasca Restaurant · Brighton • $$
Score $5 tapas at this lively Spanish spot where the grilled octopus and lamb chops disappear fast. The energy is contagious, the sangria is dangerously drinkable, and somehow everything tastes better when shared.
January 21 at 5pm
The Bosworth Restaurant + Bar · Downtown • $$
Bivalves on a budget: every Thursday, The Bosworth at Hotel AKA Boston Common shucks oysters for a buck apiece. Pair them with a Melon Theory cocktail or truffle fries at this sleek downtown spot.
January 17 at 9pm
Batifol · East Cambridge • $37
Sunday nights at Batifol mean one thing: all the steak frites you can handle for $37. Servers circle with warm, juicy cuts and crisp fries, so loosen your belt and settle in for a proper French bistro feast.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
