Hello friends and neighbors.

Due to government order we will be closed until it is deemed safe to reopen. While we are heartbroken that we will not be able to provide a place of hospitality and community, we look forward to pouring beers as soon as it is safe to do so. Stay safe and healthy, and thank you for your support in these uncertain times.

Takeout and delivery are available from our sister restaurant Five Horses Tavern Somerville, Monday-Saturday from Noon to 9pm. You can place your order here.

If you would like to support Five Horses Tavern during our closure please consider purchasing a gift card here.

Thank you all, we cannot wait to see you on the other side.
