Concierge.com's insider take:
To have a true Boston—make that Baahston—night out, head to this glorified crab shack on the waterfront, near the Institute of Contemporary Art. The tacky nautical theme of fishing nets and life preservers makes it feel like a tourist trap, but the Barking Crab is always packed with a mix of college coeds and older suburbanites. You can easily spend an entire night here: Order a pitcher of beer ($15 for local brew Harpoon), fried oysters, bowls of thick clam chowder, and a plastic bucket of crab claws that you crack with that big rock resting on the table. There's live music three nights a week: jazz or reggae on Sundays; rock, blues, or reggae on Tuesdays; and rock covers on Thursdays.
Open daily 11:30 to 10 pm.
