Even though Happy Hour no longer exists in Boston, don’t tell that to the patrons of City Bar at the Lenox Hotel. The hotel bar is packed nightly with an after-work crowd who come for the one-of-a-kind Infusions Diabolique, hand-infused spirits spiked with natural ingredients, like the popular Angelique tequila infused with mango, lime and pineapple.
Of course, there are also a variety of martinis (including a refreshing basil gimlet), single malts, ports, liqueurs, champagnes, beer and wine on the menu, but the infusions are a must here. If you get hungry, order up some snacks, which come from the neighboring City Table. A late night eclectic menu consists of duck confit spring rolls, chicken drumettes with Diabolique rum along with citrus and rosemary marinated olives.
City Bar also has a second location at the Westin Boston Waterfront on Summer Street where you can still get the same great drinks if you can’t make it over to Back Bay. Check out citybarboston.com for more information.
