This is definitely not a place for a family to go to lunch. It might be fun on a Friday or Saturday night, but it was very dark, the atmosphere was foreboding and the view into the kitchen made me think "it's not worth the risk". Needless to say we walked in and walked right back out.
Review Source:Love this bar, definitely one of my favorite places to hang out on a Friday or Saturday night.
There's a couple of pool tables and dart boards, and a main bar and a back bar. On Friday and Saturday nights there's always a band playing, they have an entertainment schedule posted on their website. Some of the bands are really good and actually develop quite a fan base, I make sure to check the schedule and go when a band I really enjoy happens to be playing. There's usually a cover of $5 or $6 on Friday and Saturday nights.
Drinks prices are pretty reasonable, I only drink mixed drinks and they're usually about $6. They're pretty strong, too!
One of the things I love about Lowell/Dracut are these local bars that seem to sprout out of nowhere. Â Back to the Boathouse is no exception; I grew up in the area maybe 15 minutes away and just realized that this place existed. Â It's a townie type of bar, and that's why I like it. Â They have good entertainment lined up, cheap drinks/beer, and is a good place to get together with friends.
