The Tam, Boston


222 Tremont St.

Open 8 a.m.–2 a.m.



Despite the shamrocks on the door, the Tam is not an Irish pub. But it’s a place where coeds and crackheads alike take a (sticky) seat at the bar in search of liquid good times. The barkeeps divide their time slinging $5 whiskey drinks and keeping an eye on the riffraff. That’s why the men’s room door was removed, and why you should poop in the pizzeria next door.
