5 people recommendvia r/boston5 comments cited below
What people say, in short
Hopewell is recommended as an Allston neighbourhood-bar option. One commenter particularly likes it for pool, another chooses the back room for an unhurried daytime visit, and a patron reports returning with a large group each summer. That group experience supports it as a social option, without promising space on a particular date.
