Reviewed By Journey36054868789

I came here this past weekend (Saturday November 16th 2019), a few days before my birthday. I wanted to show some friends out of town a distillery tour that was something I enjoyed (cocktails and spirits), and so, to do that and support local business, Bully Boy was fun, more intimate, and we got to try some delicious product.

I simply cannot imagine enjoying a magic show more than I did Paul Gertner's. Before the show, I had watched all of Paul's appearances on Penn & Teller Fool Us on YouTube, and so I came in with pretty high expectations for the live show. Seeing Paul live blew my mind way more than I ever could have expected! He is an extremely nice person and readily involves audience members in breathtaking tricks, which is easily facilitated by the intimate (<20 people) setting. Getting to see Paul's extraordinary sleight of hand up close is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Book your tickets now!!

Four-Handed Illusions: An Intimate Evening of Laughs & Wonder

Illusionists Joel Acevedo and Steve Kradolfer join their talents in a performance that is engaging, hilarious, and mystifying. As one of only 50 guests, you will experience the magic just a few feet from your eyes. Add the sophisticated elegance of Boston’s Hampshire House and the result is a uniquely entertaining experience you'll remember for a long time. The event starts 30 mins before showtime with a pre-show reception in the mansion's Baker Bar, where you'll find a vast selection of cocktails and beverages available for purchase. At show time, guests enter the Library where they will witness surreal situations come to life. Common objects will appear, vanish, teleport to impossible locations, and move across the room in inexplicable ways. You will also experience the wonders of the human mind through masterful demonstrations of telepathy, precognition, and mind reading. Join us and see why Four-Handed Illusions is one of Boston's highest rated shows!

If you are looking for something a bit different, and loads of fun, check out these guys. They have been around for seven years, enough time to refine a superbly executed evening of illusions that will keep you baffled. The banter and audience interaction are enough to keep you laughing, and add on top of that some really excellent illusions, and voila! Nice night, followed by yummy dinner at the sublimely cozy 75 Chestnut. Thanks guys!

Mind Reading Confidential

In Mind Reading Confidential, Jon Stetson shares fun and intimate thoughts from the minds of his audience. He reveals stories that are outrageously funny, or even beautifully heart warming, and every demonstration is amazing. Stetson was the inspiration for the CBS hit television series “The Mentalist”. He blends the art of Mystery with the study of Psychology, the predictability of human nature and the power of intuition, with a disarming sense of humor. The result is slack jawed amazement, where the most skeptical of audience members begin to feel a renewed sense of wonder as impossibilities become realities. Mind Reading Confidential takes place in Boston's historic Omni Parker House hotel, the longest continuously operating hotel in the United States.

It was a fun-filled event in an intimate setting on a cold evening. The show was way more interactive and enjoyable than I had anticipated. Jon Stetson has a great sense of humor and knows how to keep his audience captivated.

The Crow's Nest

This hangout for Gloucester's locals was the bar frequented by the ill-fated fishermen of "The Perfect Storm."

Reviewed By YooperGirls

Heard they made a good Bloody Mary and it’s true. If you’re looking for a bounty of condiments, these are not for you. Had a couple pieces of lemon and some puny run of the mill olives. They concentrate on the flavor in the drink itself and it was excellent! Best Bloody Mary of the day!

Warren Tavern

Pub named after General Joseph Warren, who was killed in the Battle of Bunker Hill.

Reviewed By ishcampmom - Grand Rapids, United States

We had great drafts, cozy and fun atmosphere, and delicious pub food. Our group had the Sons of Liberty burger, the Tavern Burger, the Caribbean Jerk Chicken Sandwich, and Fish and Chips. All of us were happy with what we chose. I loved the history of the place with Paul Revere and George Washington have big had Sri is here too. Loved it and happy we chose it as we also were just a short distance from the USS Constitution that we had visited.
