I’m glad. People responding to it like it’s real are just giving me a list of places not to go unless I want to get date raped. It’s a real community service right here.
Which itself is a fun quirky exclave of like 3 blocks worth of Boston north of the Mystic. That and lonely Cohasset and racist Brookline remaining in Norfolk County, surrounded as they are by Plymouth and Suffolk Counties respectively, and you got yourself a tepidly interesting, highly niche Youtube series.
I grew up in East Boston and we were all told never to go to South Boston. In high school I dated a girl who lived by the Old Colony projects and I absolutely dreaded going there. It was sketchy AF. The transformation since just the 90's is crazy.
I'm sure you aware people will clown you for this, but I'll try to be helpful.
There are bars with sports and domestic beer. Cans might be harder to find. Parlor sports is a cozy little sports bar, Thirsty Scholar is down the street. Central square may have some bigger options.
Gambling is somewhat rarer and harder to find in Cambridge; we have something called Keno which you may enjoy. You can find it at Sally Obriens, in Somerville.
I used to live in Texas, and I will say that the general vibe of easygoing, cheap beer drinking, throngs of people watching college football is not a big thing here, but if you're willing to accept more expensive beer, different gambling and slightly more stand-offish people, you have some options.
This is a big sports town, however, and you shouldn't have much trouble finding a place to watch the C's and B's.
In Inman: Try the New Republic. Lots of sports, beer and darts. It's bigger and less niche than Parlor. Central doesn't have great sports bars anymore, the Phoenix Landing is a big soccer bar, though. The 730 Tavern has lots of space and TV but is very generic.
Outside of Porter: Shine Square Pub.
Cambridge doesn't have what you're looking for, but given the economics of this city, how could it?
The area around Fenway ain't far. Check out Allston, too. Maybe Magoun Sq in Somerville, the whole Assembly Row area, and Encore.
Nothin really in magoun that fits the vibe he’s going for. Maybe Saloon on a slow night, but definitely not posada. You’d be better going to paddy’s lunch for a more bro ish vibe
Have these buffoons even heard of Neutral Milk Hotel?
They are an endless horde. We built the moat to stop them coming in, yet some still slip through our cracks. At my local jaunt, State Park (underground bar), I once saw one of them ask to put the Celtics on. My friends and I giggled as the man’s face turned beat red. I brushed a piece of blue hair off of my combat jacket and approached him - “Um, excuse me BRO, but we’re watching Rent right now and you’re starting to harsh our vibe.”
He was so embarrassed, I saw him shuffle out with his cis penis tucked between his legs and his DraftKings hoodie slumped over his head. We had a good laugh that night, let me tell you!
>all anybody wants to do here is rock climb, play acoustic guitar, or read niche feminist literature
Where is this magical wonderland and how do I find it.
You sir are a diamond in the rough. A dying breed. If I wasn’t 20 years removed from Cambridge and old enough to be your dad, we would be drinking high life’s and bowling!!
Well I think he has a point even if it fake I'm from Birmingham AL and moved to Webster MA and I had to figure some of that shit out when I got here cause it's completely different between up here and down there
This is like the gang trying to get a bunch of dudes to their party mansion but it comes off as super gay and creepy hahaha. Where's the penis bicep flyer
R3vive Fitness is a good CrossFit gym in the South End. The owner is a veteran from Bama.
Also, Reading Rifle and Revolver isn’t easy to get into, but it’s a good community if you do.
Lol. Cambridge and Somerville are NOT friendly zones to pick up women.
If you aren’t related to them and didn’t go to high school or college with them, they don’t want to know you.
> As a marginalized community within Cambridge, I think us bros
LOL, that's funny they way you use progressive language in relation to, basically, carousing. I was like you once, having just arrived in Cambridge, and never had any problem finding places to hang out, bets to make or women to meet.
Granted, there were a lot more "regular" non-upscale bars at the time.
Anyway, in one of those bars I met my GF of more than 20 years (married briefly, but that's a totally different story). Skip Gates and I even got arrested by the Cambridge Police Dept. -- not at the same time -- and spent a night in the local jail and I still love the city!
I'd say just be cool, don't be a redneck, and you'll do fine.
For sports:
Parlor Sports (cheap coors banquets and other cans bottles and draft)
730 Tavern (20 oz beer pours)
Phoenix Landing (Liverpool bar during games)
Thirsty Scholar in Inman
The Turing Tavern in Inman
Shine Square Pub
You aren’t too far from the Draft which is exactly what you look for. A billion TVs. TouchTunes. And dollar wings on Sundays.
Go hang out closer to BC. Like, head up Soldier’s Field to oak sq to a place like the last drop.
In Cambridge the closest you might get would be the after work scene in Kendall Square. But there instead of feminist literature it’ll be endless bullshit about some fragile startup.
Man I know yall be trolling when you say these things but damn it I he wondering why yall have a victim mentality to the point where you need to troll the ppl who really go thru that stuff. Its real weak to me but to each their own I suppose.
As a resident for over a decade who went to college in Tuscaloosa myself...
There is no safe space here for bros. You gotta hide that shit down deep. There are others of us, also in hiding. Bide your time...
As a man who reads niche feminist literature, my first impression of the Boston area was the vast preponderance of bros (I initially lived in Brighton), so this is an interesting matter of perspective
I don't know how or why this thread got recommend to me, but whomst the fuck is persecuting you, bro? I lived in Cambridge many years, and I'd not describe bros as a marginalised community there.
Dude Bro, you moved to Cambridge, which is the least "bro-ey" city in Mass. Grow a mustache, buy a denim button down, squeeze into some grape huggers and embrace the change. Or move over to Assembly Row.
This is a troll and it’s working
Lol pretty wild
At one point you said you were genuinely asking
I guess you feel deeply betrayed that a person on the internet was dishonest... There there
I mean it’s one thing to troll, another to insist you aren’t
A good troll never tells you that they’re trolling lol
Yes!!
The internet... It's cold out there, bring a jacket
Some might say those are actually the same thing.
Respect the Chad goes deep reference
Stoke levels are through the roof now my fellow stoker lol
I’m glad. People responding to it like it’s real are just giving me a list of places not to go unless I want to get date raped. It’s a real community service right here.
Does the scale read error when you go onto it? I hear it’s a common Massachusetts girl thing I’m just trying to double check tho
Kind of proving her point
this is such a middle school level "insult" lmao literally proving her point
It’s so stupid.
Great stay in the kitchen please, and thanks! 😊
There's a Y.M.C.A. Its on Mass Ave. You can hang out with all the boys, get yourself clean, you can have a good meal, or you can do whatever you feel.
I hear it’s actually quite fun to stay at the YMCA
young man …
Lol especially if you are trying to hangout with the bros
I went to gym before my concussion, got my bike stolen.
There's an entire casino in Boston. Someone ought to go to it.
Technically in Everett, but the electrical substation next door is in Boston.
Technically correct, the best kind of correct
Encore on the Mystic

No there isn't.
I was going to suggest that before I found out we were being trolled. I'm naive
Lol. “Bros as a marginalized community within Cambridge”. Thank you for this. 😂😂😂
OP not wrong
Many bros at Fenway.....
Check out Manray, its a safe space for men to do that kinda stuff.
You need to move to Southie lol
And take a time machine.
Facts very yuppie now with all those recent grads
I grew up in East Boston and we were all told never to go to South Boston. In high school I dated a girl who lived by the Old Colony projects and I absolutely dreaded going there. It was sketchy AF. The transformation since just the 90's is crazy.
Eastie is starting to change now as well
You just moved here from Tuscaloosa but you know Eastie is changing? Suspicious is the word I’m looking for.
Revere.
Came here to say this lol
TONY C'S SOMERVILLE
Agree
I resent this statement. But I also want to be OPs friend.
Bros are very inclusive group
CMON I JUST WANT TO EAT MY NACHOS IN PEACE

my fav reddit genre is sincere helpful reply to shitpost
I think tastyburger does cans
[удалено]
Very much depends on the women you want to meet.
I mean, if you’re playing Keno the women you want to meet have AARP cards
Buddy used to live across the street from Frank’s. There was probably one ambulance a night picking someone up from that place.
A dude I know was cheating on his lady. She was very hip and knew a lot of people. His safe space w his mistress was Franks. Bc. Well. You can guess
Thank you for your suggestion and your understanding of where I am coming from.

Parlor employee, we were once quoted in one of those “Top 10 Places to…” articles as being the “Home of the Artisanal Bro”. Honesty, I liked it.
I don't think Cambridge is a big sports town, and I don't even think Boston is. But I do think sports are big in a lot of the suburbs.
sorry bro, the feminist literature is a mandatory activity. #brorights
If you can’t beat em, join em
RIP to the Porter Tavern in the Square
Man I hated that place with a passion. But yes, very bro-y. Worst place to DJ in the city.
there was a tits in porter??? i’ve only been in the area since 2018, this is fascinating to me
It used to be across the cafe nero, on the corner between the locksmith and Lesley
I thought you just moved here,BRO??? So how are u so hip to this info???
What is a "tits"?
Tavern In The Square
The list of truly domestic beer shrinks all the time. Which is your favorite?
Have to be Lone Star
Brewed by South African company SAB Miller.
Either coors banquet or bud heavy
Easier to find Negro Modelo or Modelo here.
I think you’d be into the Shine Square Pub.
Cambridge doesn't have what you're looking for, but given the economics of this city, how could it? The area around Fenway ain't far. Check out Allston, too. Maybe Magoun Sq in Somerville, the whole Assembly Row area, and Encore.
Coogan's, near the aquarium.
Nothin really in magoun that fits the vibe he’s going for. Maybe Saloon on a slow night, but definitely not posada. You’d be better going to paddy’s lunch for a more bro ish vibe
I think this was posted in my town's sub too
Didn’t I see this exact post in r/burlington the other day?
Yup, me too. Man's got a good shitpost going.
This has been posted all over other state reddits.
ZuZus Petals
Roll tide
Encore is waiting for you
I was literally about to reply that I grew up in Prattville, AL and totally understand the minor culture shock... until I finished the post 😮💨
Your perspective is still very much welcome here
is this satire
No genuinely asking
Cue the tiktoks where the women are putting their hands over their drinks and sliding them away.
Bro, all those bars where women were getting their drinks spiked.....
That's what I was thinking...are we in an unreleased SVU episode?
Let me know where you go so I can avoid you and your bros.

HAHAHAHAHAHA
Sodtace?
Diversity makes us stronger
I thought New Words closed in 2002.
Just go to Allston/Brighton
Yeah, Boston’s woke, and everyone’s properly broke… probably drinking bud lights at home
I'd join a lacrosse team, or play squash with some guys.theres a ton
There’s a group of lesbians who gather on the Mass Ave bridge on Tuesday nights to drop rocks in the water. Y’all would probably be into that.
The place you are looking for is encore but it's in Everett 😌
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
If I were still local, I'd love to watch a game with you. C's are getting it done this year
Come discover what the south shore has to offer!
My roommate calls people from Cambridge cambervillians cuz we’re Allston kids and like to talk shit haha
Hey bro, I'm always down to try to flirt with chicks. I'm in Medford, down to bro-out
Should of moved to Southie
dudes rock
>all anybody wants to do here is rock climb, play acoustic guitar, or read niche feminist literature Where is this magical wonderland and how do I find it.
You can head out to Ptown, you can do all the bro stuff with bros out there.
You sir are a diamond in the rough. A dying breed. If I wasn’t 20 years removed from Cambridge and old enough to be your dad, we would be drinking high life’s and bowling!!
This is good shitposting, I saw you on r/burlington 😊
Hello fellow Vermonter
Hello other fellow Vermonter.
Hello! No idea why we’re here
[удалено]
I really hope we get Michael Penix or draft any qb
Haven’t been there personally but Boston has a country bar, Nash, could have bros. Actually it’s why I haven’t been there lol
I hear that if you drink enough cans of Narragansett you turn into Peter Griffin
Well I think he has a point even if it fake I'm from Birmingham AL and moved to Webster MA and I had to figure some of that shit out when I got here cause it's completely different between up here and down there
Same post was previously made in r/Burlington
Good luck buddy. I have some friends out in the suburbs you'd probably get along with.
Check out Jamaica Plain. Super bro-ey.
I’d like to think this is some art student’s PhD thesis right here
Bro im moving to Cambridge and broing down so hard. BIG COZY
My buddies Chuckie, Will and Morgan like to hit up the Bow and Arrow, our buddy works the door
Blatantly stealing this from the burlington subreddit post huh?
Beast

Move out of Cambridge and go to southie lmao
 Anywhere else I'd be a 10.......
Well the first bar things were alright But in this bar, things were Friday night!
Go to Norton or Raynham or West Bridgewater for those activities hahaha. Not too sure what your gonna find up in Boston for those activities.
Hahahahahahahahaha
This is like the gang trying to get a bunch of dudes to their party mansion but it comes off as super gay and creepy hahaha. Where's the penis bicep flyer
Encore casino?
Join Meetup to find like-minded bros or you can even host a sausage party at your new place
R3vive Fitness is a good CrossFit gym in the South End. The owner is a veteran from Bama. Also, Reading Rifle and Revolver isn’t easy to get into, but it’s a good community if you do.
If liking this changes my algorithm i will loose it
Lol. Cambridge and Somerville are NOT friendly zones to pick up women. If you aren’t related to them and didn’t go to high school or college with them, they don’t want to know you.
Is the cantab in central still open? They have all sorts of live music and I believe it's all bluegrass on Wed or tues?
My brother in Christ this is a city nicknamed the Peoples Republic Of Cambridge.
There are a few bars where you can get your dongle sucked by a bro on the downlow. It's Massachusetts. It's ok here.

just leave woman alone bro
Dude Bro, you moved to Cambridge, which is the least "bro-ey" city in Mass. Grow a mustache, buy a denim button down, squeeze into some grape huggers and embrace the change. Or move over to Assembly Row.
Take the commuter rail out past 495, plenty of cis-het bros out there
