I have just learned from Ilana's blog that one of my favorite bars in Boston, the Littlest Bar, is wrapping up its business by December to make way for condominium development. I have many fond memories at the Littlest. After all, this is the bar where I met Liam, Siobhan, and most of my Irish friends, many who still remain as my good friends. Liam once said that the Littlest is one of the most authentic Irish bar in Boston while Siobhan celebrated her 21st birthday - a day of legalized drinking in America - at the Littlest. Aptly named, the Littlest is indeed Boston's littlest bar. Imagine putting about 35 people into an area of a 150 sq ft. In spite of the confined space, they still manage to get a band of Irish folk musicians to play at a corner, a bartender to serve a pint of good guinness, and a bouncer to stay guard at the door. Their space management is impeccable. But all this doesn't matter anymore, the bar will be gone by December. It's really sad to see this landmark go. Damn you condo developer...
