WHERE TO WATCH REALITY TV

As the nights cool down, it’s easy to slide into solo streaming mode, especially with fall premieres on the calendar. If you're more about communal viewing than solo binge-watching, Boston has plenty of spots where you can catch Bravo instead of ESPN.

DO617 PRESENTS:

ALLSTON NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDE

Welcome to Allston Rock City, where students clog the streets, amps buzz late and catching a show is basically a rite of passage. From riffs to refuels, we’ve mapped your backstage pass for everywhere worth going in the neighborhood.*

THIS WEEKEND

🦞 Shell-ebrate Lobster Day

Today around Boston (times vary)

Happy National Lobster Day! We’ll take any excuse for a lobster roll (cold with mayo for us). We rounded up local spots serving fresh takes on New England’s favorite roll… and where to score a $15 lobster roll.

🎨 Art After Dark

Tonight at the ICA (6PM)

Drop in for hands-on watercolor lessons inspired by classic New England food and led by a local painter. Supplies are provided and all skill levels are welcome.

👠 Fashionably Late

Tonight at The Liberty Hotel (8:30PM)

The season’s designer lineup just dropped. Don’t miss this interactive fashion show where models strut through the lobby, pose on tables and weave through the crowds.

🎪 Seaport Spectacular

Tomorrow in Seaport (4:30PM)

Step right up for robot-drawn caricatures, an AI graffiti wall, live music and more. It’s a carnival with a futuristic twist… and cotton candy, ofc.

🥃 Charlie Day Takeover

Tomorrow at Back Bay Social (8PM)

It’s always sunny when Charlie Kelly (er, Day) is behind the bar. Swing by Back Bay for a Paddy’s Pub moment straight out of Philly, plus a taste of his new whiskey.

Chance the Rapper

You hear that? It’s your “Favorite Song.” Chance the Rapper brings the And We Back Tour to MGM Music Hall next month. Enter to win your way in on October 4th.*

LOCALS ONLY

  • You (almost) made it to Free Cash Friday! We’re hoping the rain holds off tomorrow for a stroll along the harbor. Keep an eye out near a legendary landmark that sailed into town decades ago and still stands tall today.

  • The Current just got a seasonal makeover: an après-inspired retreat of cozy nooks and a lineup worth exploring. It opens tomorrow with free custom totes, DIY bouquets and exclusive promos from every brand.

  • Master soup dumplings from the best in the business: Mei Mei. You’ll take home whatever you don’t eat, plus the skills to make ‘em in your own kitchen next time.

Have a claw-some Thursday 🦞
