Cheers Bull and Finch Pub

Previously known as the “Bull & Finch Pub,” this bar’s rise to stardom is the classic Hollywood story – only it happened in Boston! Three producers looked to create a sitcom based on a neighborhood bar. One producer suggested going to Boston, where sports and politics were hot issues in the local watering holes. One afternoon, the producers dropped into the Bull & Finch Pub where they met our affable bartender Eddie Doyle. After a beer, burger, and a chat with Eddie, they felt good about the Bull & Finch. They visited half a dozen other Boston bars, but returned to 84 Beacon Street, declaring, “This is the place!”
The Bull and Finch went on to become one of Boston’s most popular tourist attractions. However, even with all that stardom, the bar now known as Cheers has held onto the feelings of hospitality and warmth felt by the three producers over 25 years ago. Norm, Cliff and the gang may not be among the many faces sharing a laugh with our hospitable cast, but the atmosphere remains the same. Cheers is the ideal place for newcomers and old friends alike to share hearty laughs, tall tales, “little-known facts,” and, of course, a cold beer.
