Boston, MA 02116

The Tam, located in Boston, MA, invites you to join the Tamily with its welcoming atmosphere at 222 Tremont St. This 21+ establishment offers a fun-filled Tuesday night trivia event with cash prizes. While cash is preferred, they now accept credit cards, but have an ATM that may be out of order.

Enjoy $3 PBR cans and other drink options, excluding milk. Feel free to bring food from nearby eateries like Maria's Taqueria or New York Pizza. Unfortunately, the vending machine is no longer available, but 7-Eleven next door has a variety of snacks.

While there is no WiFi, strike up a conversation with fellow patrons or enjoy music from the jukebox. The Tam also shares amusing tidbits in their FAQ section, assuring visitors that it's been incident-free since St. Patrick's Day 1969. Don't miss out on the chance to rub elbows with notable guests like Bieber or George Wendt.
