Concierge.com's insider take:
Depending on whom you ask, the Beehive is either one of the best new additions to Boston's nightlife scene, or one of the worst. The bistro, bar, and live-music venue opened in May 2007 in the basement of the former Boston Center for the Arts and immediately rode a popularity wave, going from "in" to "out" faster than you can say backlash. While many of the complaints are valid—weekend lines are long; hearing your dinner companion can be a challenge; it's occasionally overrun by suburbanites—the Beehive still has a bohemian vibe that's rare in Boston. The menu started out as an homage to Eastern Europe but has evolved into a melting pot of dishes: almond-crusted veal schnitzel, cinnamon-dusted Moroccan stew, and a grilled cheese sandwich with short ribs and fontina. The entertainment is just as diverse: jazz one night, bossa nova the next. Our verdict is that the Beehive is a victim of its own success but still worth checking out—as long as you go early, or on a weeknight.
Open Mondays through Fridays 5 pm to 2 am, Saturdays and Sundays 10:30 am to 2 am.
