I've become a big fan of some of the drinks at Sobre Mesa in Sudbury.

NOT being snarky, but just because I, too enjoy good cocktails, but don't get out much...

Where do you love cocktails from?

I’ve enjoyed the cocktails (and tapas) at Azucar in Maynard.

Less than greater than in Hudson is great! Also Labaredas in Marlborough had good cocktails and good Brazilian food.

Boston? While I don't have a specific recommendations around Acton/Maynard, you need not drive any further in than Woburn to get to The Baldwin Bar.

Rapscallion in Acton for beer. Stir in Westford for martinis. Forge & Vine in Groton for everything.

Azucar in downtown Maynard was surprisingly solid for cocktails tbh

As someone who grew up in Acton and spent 24+ years there, there are like…zero restaurants worth going to lmao

Less Than Greater Than It's a speakeasy in Hudson. It looks like an old cobbler shop from the outside. You will find the entrance inside New City MicroCreamery. Rail Trail across the street also has great cocktails. Same owners.

Went to the Evergreen Room in Hudson last night for the first time and it was WONDERFUL!

I’ve heard good things about the cocktails at Rail Trail Flatbread in Hudson.

Is Blue Coyote still there? Loved that place (granted, I moved out of Acton over a decade ago).

Sobre Mesa in Sudbury. Surprisingly good cocktails. Recommend the Cold Snap.

Welcome to central mass (yes still metro west but…it may as well be central west with the food scene).

The food in many towns around there is hit or miss…I’ve lived here for a decade and still can’t get used to it. Lots of good options when you find them, but when it’s bad, it’s bad.

Horseshoe used to be my go to when they always had 100+ unique craft brews on tap. Last few times I’ve gone it’s very heavy with mass produced beers, a bunch of locals, and a handful of crafts, usually under 30 or so total beers

This is further out than Acton Maynard but if you want great live music, good food then Bull Run in Shirley……. don’t know about cocktails…

I actually liked more beers at True West than Rapscallion, although now that my boys aged out of youth hockey and I don't need to go to the Nashoba (Acton Boxboro) rink anymore, I haven't actually been there since before the pandemic + another year or two before that. Perhaps they have gone downhill since? At the time I thought their IPA was their least appealing beer (and I am an IPA drinker). Oddly I thought their brown ale was very good considering I don't normally like browns all that much. And their Belgian Tripel and Dubbel were both good.

I don't recall them every having much of a "bar" for cocktails, to get back on track with this thread. Just a handful of kind of standards I used to see them make a lot of the same things over and over sitting at the bar.
