Sabina Mezcaleria Boston

Boston’s Mezcal Haven

"Sabina Mezcaleria is Boston’s first mezcal bar, offering smoky spirits, bold Mexican flavors, live salsa, and a vibrant Latin jazz brunch & tastings!"

Welcome to Sabina, Boston’s first mezcaleria! Nestled on Newbury Street, one of Boston’s most lively and dynamic streets, Sabina Mezcaleria offers a unique experience for those eager to explore the world of mezcal. While tequila often takes center stage when thinking of Mexican spirits, mezcal boasts a distinctive smoky depth that can be savored neat or blended into creative cocktails. Unlike Boston’s numerous tequila bars, Sabina stands out as the city’s first true mezcaleria, making it a hidden treasure for both mezcal enthusiasts and those looking to broaden their palates.

At this laid-back yet stylish spot, you can indulge in specialties like huitlacoche empanadas, grasshopper guacamole, and the must-try corn tamal topped with black truffle cream. For those feeling adventurous, sampling the grasshoppers as a snack is an experience in itself. One cocktail not to miss is Nights in Oaxaca, a refreshing blend of mezcal, crushed ginger, basil, and lemon juice.

Sabina’s vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere makes it an ideal spot for a night out. On Thursdays and Sundays, guests can enjoy live salsa performances, adding to the energy of the space. The mezcaleria also introduce a latin jazz brunch and mezcal tasting nights, making it a dynamic destination for food, drink, and live music lovers.

To make the most of your visit, reservations are recommended. Whether you’re a mezcal enthusiast or a curious newcomer, Sabina offers an unforgettable dive into Mexico’s agave culture right in the heart of Boston.
