The Alley at One Post Office Square

The Alley at One Post Office Square gives an after-work catch-up something to do besides order another round. Ping-pong and shuffleboard are part of the setup, along with a 27-tap self-pour beer and wine wall. You can try a small amount before committing to a full glass, while the bar also serves cocktails.

Food runs from charcuterie and pizza to burgers, tacos and larger plates. The same space starts the weekday with breakfast and café service, then moves into lunch and dinner. Kitchen hours are separate from bar hours, so check the right schedule if food is the reason you’re going. The entrance is at One Post Office Square in the Financial District.
