It is the quintaessential bar of the area, primarily because there isn’t another bar in area. In fact, it’s only for drink. No kitchen. Nothing to eat. The beer doesn’t taste different than in any other place… So for me, just a two star assessment

I also had a negative experience with the bouncer telling members of my group that we were too drunk to get in. None of us had had too much to drink, and frankly I was surprised that the bouncer was so flippant. I don’t recommend coming here to go out drinking, even though I have no idea why else you would go to a bar here in the first place.

I never have been thrown out or NOTALLOWED into a bar for no reason before. Two of my friends and I decided to go get some drinks in Brookline, a couple hours after the Sox game got out. So we take an Über right to the bar and get out. Upon walking to the door, we get asked«where are you coming from?» To which we respond«Fenway.» By this exchange, the bouncer deemed us unworthy of his and the bar“s time. He told us that we had«enough» like a condescending prick, and we were not allowed in. I can only speculate as to why, but my guess is that because my friends and I don’t have vaginas, we weren’t allowed in. Keep in mind, this is Brookline, not the North End. Get off your high horse, Last Drop.

If I was allowed in I may have been able to change my rating. Sadly, the bouncer who won too many Marlboro points wouldn’t allow us in for«having too many.» Apparently, leaving the ymca after playing basketball leaves you looking too drunk? I know this place isn’t the finest of establishments so I can’t degrade it too much but on the real the bouncer needs to stop watching roadhouse ever day before he goes to work. I understand what this place is but truly an embarrassment

When I first walked in this place, the smell hit me harder than stepping off the 64 at Central Square– thinking, Where am I? I immediately was about to make a u-turn and head to much classier establishments like TITS or Harrys. However, at the same time, I heard a seedy character in the back by the Golden Tee machine let out a loud, Bbbeeoowwwoooppp. Even though I didn’t have the darnedest clue what that meant, his infectious laughter caught my ear and instinctually I decided to give the place a second chance. My momma always taught me to never judge a book by its cover(or odd, unusual odor either — although that hasn’t always worked out in my favor) so I figured, what’s the harm in one drink? As I weaved my way past the drunk 60 year old characters and a 30 something bald guy stooped over at the middle bar, I noticed they had state-of-the-art sun lighting shining in over their extensive row of tap handles. After quickly perusing the 2 – 3 beers on tap, I decided to settle on a local craft beer, bud light. There was a decent crowd in there that day along the all wood bar that extends along the right side of the place, so I wasn’t sure how long it would take to get a drink. To my pleasant surprise, a large jovial man, sporting a sweet baseball beard and a gregarious personality, quickly came over. With a friendly, yet gentle handshake the bartender introduced himself as Mike. The bud light was decently priced(less than $ 4 for a draft) and given Mike’s warm attitude(and freshly cleaned embroidered Last Drop collared shirt), I decided to stick around and mingle with the locals. And I was glad I did. I heard from others that the loud seedy character went by the name of Ronnie P and had been a regular there since ’75. After Mike served me a few vodka crans I was warming up to the Oak Square crowd. A few other locals, a fella by the name of Vance and his Asian friend(whose name slips my mind at this time) stated that it was a good local hangout, usually on Sunday’s during football season. Thanks to that seedy character’s laughter and Mike the bartender’s attentive service — I’ll be sure to be back soon! Great local hangout!

Have frequented this bar many many times in the four years I have lived in Brighton. The lady bartender is quite rude. My friend found a drunk girl passed out in the bathroom stall and told the blond bartender but couldn’t be bothered saying that happens a lot oh well. I don’t think they care about making the customer happy as long as your tab is open. It’s a shame because I really like this place but I don’t think I will ever return due to the bartenders attitude and bouncer behavior.

Having a good time! Bouncer who is young kept creating problems for no apparent reason. So I did ask him if he was drinking… He felt disrespected. I assume? but putting me out with excessive force wasn’t necessary! I waited until we were outside to react to his unnecessary behavior. Not a tough guy when your own co-workers don’t help you because your wrong! He went back inside mighty quick though.

The Last Drop is the worst bar in the entire state of Massachusetts. An absolute joke. A 24 year old was denied because they supposedly«didn’t look like their IDs» after providing at least 5 backup identifications. The service is incredibly rude– I can not imagine how the bouncers could treat any person so poorly. I am disgusted by this experience and hope that no other person has to go through this. I would not recommend this bar.

I love this bar. It’s so divey for the area. Mike and Austin are amazing and so funny. They are fast to get my drink order and so nice! I feel like I’m in that show cheers when I show up here. They don’t serve food but they have chips. The pool table is fun and the juke box is fun to take over. Great neighborhood bar

Terrible service. We stood right next to the fat bar tender with a gotee for 10 minutes waiting to order drinks. He never once acknowledged us or asked if we needed anything. Last time we go here

Never have i been so disrespected! The bar tenderers are rude and unresponsive. I asked for a group of shots for a friends going away and he was rude and very slow. After poor service my bill was thrown in my face(literally) and when I didn’t approve of the service he told me «you should keep this, you need it more». I too work in the restaurant business and i would never expect patrons to visit again with the lack of respect and professionalism that I experienced. With the amount of bars in Boston Im surprised that the last drop has gotten away with their rude and disrespectful demeanor! I will never go there again and I will definitely spread the word! I have lived in and around Boston for 15 years and never have I received this lack of respect! Im surprised that this establishment is still around!

The split-personality king of neighborhood dive bars. Shoot some pool, toss some darts, or pull up a stool and enjoy a refreshingly un-boston price point on some great beers and whiskeys. Bring your own food, as there’s no kitchen. Friendly bartenders, buck hunter, and a jukebox line the corners of the 1980’s kitchen, open-floor design. Then, an act of the supernatural occurs. Weekend bargoers that venture from the outer rims of nowhere(Oak Square) to the depths of civilization, hop back on Boston’s hilariously short-lived late night T service and undergo a transformation. Over the course of the 9-year return trek on the wooden roller-coaster ride known as the 57 bus line, our bar patrons(in a delirium of potential death by MBTA) decide there is still more to live for tonight. Enter The Last Drop, circa 11:30pm every Saturday night. The crux of late night hilariousness from a variety of faces, ranging from the Sperry and khaki-clad 20 something accountant to the drunken neighbor-men, promising a semi-coherent spew of last ditch displays of dominance and liquor. The dive becomes a pool of late night ruckus that is too hilariously perfect to not wade into. My first pint in the neighborhood — Overall one of the more dynamic dives(and one of few dives) in Brighton.

My girl and I decided to get away from Allston and hit up the bars around Brighton. Brighton Beer Works… the place next to it… and some other bar. DEAD. DEAD. And DEAD. Then we went to Last Drop. It was all college kids, but we didn’t care! Cheap brews, jukebox, and darts. That’s what the fuck we did. And it was a damn good time! Dive bar or not, this place was a blast to be at, and I will definitely come again.

Love this place! The Last Drop started as the convenient bar around the corner where we could grab a quick drink but has become our go-to bar, our own personal Cheers. If you go on the earlier side, you can almost always find a seat and the bar is full of regulars. If you get there after 12am there is a completely different crowd — lots of people trying to get in an extra hour of drinking, so it does get crowded pretty quickly. Get there a little earlier and claim your seat at the bar and won’t be bothered much by the crowds. And even with the crowds, there is never a line for the bathroom, which is a bonus. We love the bartenders. Went in on the early side a couple times when it wasn’t super busy and we got to talking with the bartenders and now we’ll go in for a drink just so we can chat with Mike or Christina or Kevin(everyone else is great, too). They definitely treat their regulars really well and make a point to remember you but they also make sure everyone who comes in gets served quickly. We came in after our engagement party a few weeks ago and they had balloons and champagne for us! The staff really are awesome. Don’t judge this place on the 12−2am crowds cause it is a much different experience earlier in the evening. Oh, and while the beer selection isn’t huge, they usually have a few different beers to try so you’re not stuck with the basic drafts you get everywhere else. And the prices are really reasonable.

I have a big like/hate relationship with this place(never love). I lived in Brighton for about 3 years, and always seemed to end up here on Friday or Saturday nights. I think being the only place open until 2am was the biggest reason for that. This place turns into a human zoo after 1am, which is pretty fun to see, with all walks of Brighton life convening to get just one more hour of drinking and sweating in a room full of weirdos. My biggest problem is that I’ve been treated kinda shabbily by different bartenders and doormen here. I’m not sure how it happened(maybe mistaken identity), but they always treat me like I’m some kind of drunken troublemaker when I’m in there(I’m really not! though I guess I’ve been a little sloppy once or twice). But whatever, I do like the darts and pool table and all the randoms that pack in here. Ayways! Castle Bar is waaaayyyyy better if you don’t need to be out until 2am, If you must go here, keep your cool(don’t act too sloppy, or you’ll be branded!) and remember to keep your eyes open for some sweet people watching.

Ok four stars for this place, why you may ask, because its right around the corner from me for the most part. If you live in or near Oak Square in Brighton this is the quintessential dive bar. Nothing special here. The bar stays open late, has great t.v.‘s to watch games, the staff is very friendly, they have free darts, a pool table, its very clean, ample seats, the bathroom is clean as well. They will probably have the beer that you like and they serve bottles. You can bring in pizza or other food that is available from establishments near by. The crowd here isn’t rowdy or ignorant, usually college kids who live in the area. The worst you’ll see is some kid in flip flops and socks. Never saw any problems in this place. I use this place to just grab a beer and watch the Sox, Celtics, or Bruins game when I want to just get out and not sit in the house. Kind of a place to go to give high five’s to strangers after a goal, basket, or a home run type deal. I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here though. If I lived a mile away I would probably find some place closer, because there’s nothing special about this place.

One bulleit bourbon. An Oak Square haunt you alky. High rise brick walls red/ This place is alright. Friendly. Local. Spacious. Large televisions. Darts. Pool tables. No judgement when you’re a lady, all alone, ordering Bulleit bourbon. I wouldn’t go out of my way to visit. But it is what it is in Oak Square. I’ve heard you can bring in your own food too.

They should probably change their name to the Last Resort. I hope that wouldn’t infringe on any copyright because it might as well be called that. Regardless, good times had here!

Plus sides: They have free darts, serve beer, and have a bathroom. If its raining outside you can seek shelter here… Other than that this place should be near the bottom of your list on places to go. It is what it is, the Last Drop, your last option if nothing else is working. The people who work here are very nice however I went there once and would probably go elsewhere in the future.

There is only one reason to go to The Last Drop: to be served liquor and beer past 1AM in a city that starts closing at 11PM. The Boston bar scene is positively ridiculous, and probably run by some sort of Communist front. The Last Drop however has duly paid off all the bosses and dons, and remains open until 2AM. I really like the bartenders, who manage to serve relatively quickly despite the mobs that come here in the closing hours. Everything else however, is gross, and it starts with the people. I had to physically remove my friend from a conversation with a hopelessly moronic, disturbingly trashy local harlot with a nose ring and at least four tattoos. They have dartboards, a pool table, lots of seating. Unfortunately, the people making use of said amenities are less desirable than the contents of the bar rag…
