The Woodward at the Ames Hotel

LUPEC's Eight-Drink Minimum Revealed

ONE COURT ST., BOSTON. 617.979.8200.

WOODWARDATAMES.COM

LUPEC's last installment of Dig-assigned debauchery ended with a 12-cocktail flight. Suffice to say, this is how we roll. We know a long night is in store so commence Operation Woodward early, precisely at 5:08 p.m. on Sunday.

Drink 0.5: The Aperitif

The Airport Location of a Certain Large Hotel Chain

 

Everything that could have possibly gone wrong on this evening, did. This includes a completely erroneous side-trip to Charlestown, where there just so happens to be another street called Terminal.

HOWARD JOHNSON'S TIKI HIDEAWAY

1271 BOYLSTON ST., BOSTON. 617.267.8300

 

Drinking in the HoJo bar is like being stuck in a David Lynch movie, but that's not a criticism.

BAR 10 AT THE WESTIN COPLEY PLACE

10 HUNTINGTON AVE., BOSTON. 617.424.7446

 

Hidden away on the back side, or far side, or inside the Westin Copley hotel is Bar 10, a dark and swank place buried behind some secret entrance I've never noticed before.

BEST WESTERN HOTEL TRIA

220 ALEWIFE BROOK PARKWAY, CAMBRIDGE. 617.491.8000. HOTELTRIA.COM

 

Admittedly, I was skeptical about this place when Google Maps placed it 2 miles from any cross-street I recognized; little did I know it's a laidback haven for indie rockstars, with a witty staff and free pool.

THE W LOUNGE

100 STUART ST., THEATER DISTRICT, BOSTON. 617.310.6790. WHOTELS.COM/BOSTON</P>

The W Hotel towers over the Theater District, the latest in a crop of new skyscrapers that have sprouted up there.

NOIR AT THE CHARLES HOTEL

ONE BENNETT ST., CAMBRIDGE. 617.661.8010. NOIR-BAR.COM

 

Noir at the Charles Hotel is a ritzy watering hole preferred by Harvard professors, celebrity Hasty Pudding honorees and local musicians for its low lighting and sophisticated clientele.

Like a cool kid, I slept through my alarm back in Boston yesterday morning, scrambled to finish packing before my last minute cab showed up, and then forked over $40 for said cab to drag my sleepy ass to Logan for my flight to SXSW.
