After a year that tanked whole blocks of Boston’s restaurant scene, two of the city’s decades-old dive bars survived to serve another round: the Beacon Hill Pub and The Tam.
“We look at ourselves as stewards of these bars. We did everything we could to stay open,” said Julius Sokol, CEO of the Greater Boston Bar Co., an investment group that owns both properties.
The group bought the Beacon Hill landmark and Theater District dive along with other watering holes in a 2018 multimillion-dollar deal, alarming some local barflies with mixed messages about whether their favorite spots would stay intact.
Beacon Hill Pub and The Tam were temporarily closed for sprucing up, while Boston College neighbor Mary Ann’s was permanently shuttered. https://www.bostonherald.com/2021/06/09/dive-bars-beacon-hill-pub-the-tam-survive-pandemic/?utm_email=E454C415948D740FF484A4358A&g2i_eui=LlvAMyLAZmItAlKLX0rby12vwNY9aLeN&g2i_source=newsletter&utm_source=listrak&utm_medium=email&utm_term=https%3a%2f%2fwww.bostonherald.com%2f2021%2f06%2f09%2fdive-bars-beacon-hill-pub-the-tam-survive-pandemic%2f&utm_campaign=boston-morning-memo&utm_content=curated
