About

The Beehive is a restaurant, bar and live music room on Tremont Street, set inside the Boston Center for the Arts complex in the South End. It calls itself a Bohemian eatery and bar, and the distinction is the stage: there is live music every day of the week, from jazz and blues to soul, reggae, country, funk, cabaret and burlesque.

It suits a night out built around a band rather than a view, a dinner that turns into a late drink, and weekend brunch with musicians playing.

The music

Check the music calendar for set times; two nights have a set identity. Monday Night Hoedowns bring the Goodrich Family Band & Friends to the stage for bluegrass and Americana with rotating guest musicians, and Blues on Sunday is led by the keyboardist Bruce Bears with a changing lineup of local and touring players. On Saturday and Sunday mornings a live music brunch runs until early afternoon.

Food and drink

The kitchen describes its cooking as rustic comfort food with Middle Eastern, Eastern European and American influences, and the current dinner menu runs from crostini and colossal shrimp cocktail to royal couscous, fish and chips made with local hake, a dry-aged burger and beef short rib bourguignon. Several dishes are marked gluten friendly, vegetarian or vegan. The bar pours cocktails, beer and an accessible wine list, and the restaurant highlights its long list of Champagne and sparkling wine.

Before you go

Reservations are taken online, and larger groups use an inquiry form. Street parking and garages are the options nearby.
