The C Note

«Break out your leather jacket and stonewashed jeans because we’re headed to the C-​Note!»
If you somehow find yourself in Nantasket Beach, it most likely means you’re down-​N-​out so if you are in need of a place to sit and drink your sorrows away with some cheap, strong liquor; or are just sick of the crowded Boston bar with 15 dollar Vodka Cranberries with more cranberry than vodka, then The C-​Note is most definitely the place to go. Stop by for some quality entertainment such as Booty Vortex, Brushing Brides: «The world’s most dangerous tribute to the Rolling Stones», and a multitude of other washed up musicians. The bar is cash-​only which is kind of a bummer but its how they keep their booze so cheap and there is an ATM. They also don’t serve any food, but you can order a pizza down the street and eat it at the bar. The bartenders are all very friendly and down to earth, they sort of give off a vibe of your favorite rough-​around-​the-​edges Aunt who goes to AA meetings after Thanksgiving Dinner. But none of that is even the best part; the best part is the regular patrons. The C-​note is home to some of the strangest, most interesting characters you’ll ever have the pleasure of meeting, such as «Rich» the old alcoholic who always brings his dog into the bar (which they seem to be totally cool with BTW), or the old guy with a cane who can’t really walk so he gets his own personal waitress, et al., really just an amazing outlandish cast of alcoholics, some functioning and some not, who you can engage in the most stimulating conversation with, all-​the-​while not having a single idea what the hell they’re talking about; and that is why I keep coming back.

Oh the c note. Being from hull originally, this bar is a home away from home, an «everyone knows your name» kinda place. From the live music, to the strong drinks, and all the way to the happy staff, this place has got soul! Highly recommend
