"The name doesn't lie: This is one long bar (83 feet, to be exact, and made of copper)-which thankfully means you might not have to wait too long to snag a stately, leather-back chair. Chandeliers, vaulted ceilings, and grand arch-shaped mirrors nod to the grandeur of Oak Long Bar's home in the century-plus-year-old Fairmont Copley Plaza hotel. 138 St. James Ave., Back Bay, Boston,"
"Hunt for the secret entrance inside the glitzy Raffles Boston hotel (hint: look for the door with a dapper duck on it) to find two breathtaking stories of cocktail-lounge heaven. Enormous floor-to-ceiling windows offer dramatic skyline views, while the bar itself is quite the looker, from a dark floral ceiling to banquettes and velvety chairs that invite you to stay a while."
Greater Boston features twelve bars that prioritize aesthetics as their drinks. Oak Long Bar + Kitchen centers on an 83-foot copper bar with chandeliers, vaulted ceilings, and arch-shaped mirrors inside the Fairmont Copley Plaza; recommended: the Bee's Knees with barrel-aged Vermont gin infused with rooftop honey and wild Atlantic halibut. Blind Duck occupies two stories inside Raffles Boston, reachable through a duck-marked secret entrance, with floor-to-ceiling windows, a dark floral ceiling, banquettes, and velvety chairs; suggested choices include rare wines, high-end whiskeys, or a truffle-scented martini. Bubble Bath atop CitizenM offers a pink champagne-focused wine bar with opaque hemispheres and translucent spheres descending to cozy booths.
