Ghost Light Tavern

Ghost Light Tavern on Tremont Street can be a place for a burger, a game on television or a much later night. The kitchen serves smash burgers and hand-breaded chicken tenders, giving you a straightforward dinner before a show. Televisions make sports part of the room, and there’s a pool table downstairs if you’d rather play something yourself.

Upstairs, the Clubroom has its own nightlife schedule, with DJs Thursday through Sunday. That’s worth distinguishing when you’re making plans: a meal at the tavern and a night upstairs aren’t quite the same visit. Check the event or reservation details for the part of the venue you want. The Theater District address makes it easy to combine food with a performance nearby.
