The Scene

Posh partiers in search of an upscale but cozy nightspot should head to Post 390, a warm and welcoming tavern whose outgoing clientele, open kitchen, and creative cocktails make for a great night out.

Back Bay, Boston –

Posh partiers in search of an upscale but cozy nightspot should head to Post 390, a warm and welcoming tavern whose outgoing clientele, open kitchen, and creative cocktails make for a great night out.

Housed in a former Post Office annex, the venue features a revolving glass door that gives way to a candlelit décor of textured wood paneling, faux brick, fireplaces, and plenty of city views.

Small groups and stylish couples fill the high-top tables by the windows to watch the bustling street scene and linger over lunch or dinner, while a modern black marble bar draws affable corporate types sampling craft cocktails like the popular Grape Excess.

The liveliest scene, however, happens on the second level, where animated guests gather at the extensive bar or crowd into tables and booths around the busy exposed kitchen to watch the chefs at work.

Given the stamp of approval by its trendy clientele, Post 390 is a sure bet for a festive evening of cocktails and conversation.

Tip from Adriana:

Snowy night? All you need is a bottle of Napa Valley Cabernet, a plate of braised beef short ribs, a spot by the fire…and a hot date to share it with.

Seafood in a Cozy Setting

My mom took me and my college friends out to dinner here freshman year, and we felt like we were eating in a lodge because of the fireplace located in the dining room. It was more of a quiet vibe than we had anticipated, but it was still very cozy and the food tasted good. The menu is mostly seafood, but there is also steak and chicken as part of the entrees. Post 390 is more of an upscale restaurant, so I probably wouldn't have gone here if my mom hadn't taken us, but it was nice to be eating outside of the dining hall! I probably don't need to go back for dinner (I'm one of those people who likes to try out new places!) but the brunch menu looks delicious so I might want to try that out sometime. Overall I wouldn't necessarily recommend this place to college students looking for a fun night out, but this place would be perfect for a quiet date night or maybe a business dinner.
