Bostonians love burgers, beer and rock and roll. Just ask anyone at the Hard Rock Café Boston where dining and entertainment come together. Locals and tourists alike come here to listen to live bands, check out some of the collectible merchandise that lines the walls.
There is always something fun going on here. Over the summer, they were mixing it up with some creative cocktails served in a coffee press. We loved the Blues Berry Press made with Bacardi Wolfberry Rum, homemade lemonade, fresh blueberries, blueberry puree and lemons pressed to a sweet concoction.
Our server, Biggie, was super friendly and told us if we had any music requests, he would put them in to be played in our section along with the music videos. We got started with a sampling of Buffalo chicken wings served crispy and fiery, just the way we like them. Moving right along, we enjoyed the enormous mushroom and Swiss burger served with a side of golden fries and the juicy half chicken complemented by a side of creamy mac and cheese.
The Hard Rock Café is one of the largest entertainment destinations (more than 16,000 square feet) located in Faneuil Hall. The restaurant side is just as mammoth with more than 500 seats available. Live entertainment is held in the neighboring Cavern Club, which also features billiards, and there is even a shop here so you can take home a piece of memorabilia.
This month, The Hard Rock Cafe's 15th Annual global PINKTOBER campaign continues now through October in an effort to support breast cancer research and awareness. They are offering a variety of pink menu items, including "Flight for the Cure", a flight of Hard Rock's pink margaritas (Wildberry, Watermelon and Pomegranate) served with pink tortilla chips and house-made salsa, red velvet cake and wildberry smoothie.
The Hard Rock Cafe Boston has also teamed up with the Ellie Fund for two live music events next month. A portion of proceeds from the concerts will go to the Ellie Fund, a local organization that provides a support system to ease the effects of breast cancer and allow patients to focus on healing.
Hard Rock Café is located at 22-24 Clinton Street in Boston, Mass. For more information, call (617) 424-7625 or visit them online at http://www.hardrock.com/cafes/boston.
