Located next door to Rare, Forbes Travel Guide’s highest-rated Boston steakhouse, Rare Lounge offers seamless transitions between pre-dinner drinks, tantalizing bites, and after-dinner nightcaps. The lounge features classic and new interpretations of popular cocktails, and approachable menu items.

With its stylish and contemporary design and alluring black-and-white photography, Rare Lounge exudes a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere providing guests with an intimate alternative to Rare Steakhouse’s elegant dining room.

Pass through the gilded wood-paneled doors and slide into one of Rare Lounge’s signature cream leather chairs with plush chocolate upholstery — either at the well-appointed bar or at an opulent quartz cocktail table.

Start with light snacks such as Mini Maine Lobster Rolls and Steakhouse Wedge Salad; opt for heartier comfort foods like the Steakhouse Burger or Pigs in a Blanket, or end the evening with Vanilla Créme Brûlée.

The cocktail menu presents well-balanced, fresh flavors and ingredients complemented by a selection of premium curated spirits.

Rare Lounge favors flavors that are surprising, fun, and unexpected. The decadent Prime Cheesesteak Bites with caramelized onions, aged provolone cheese sauce on a black truffle brioche roll — created by Executive Chef Megan Vaughan — pairs perfectly with the First Class, a Rare Lounge spin on the classic paper plane with Angel’s Envy Encore Share single barrel bourbon whiskey.

For those seeking truly extraordinary sips, Rare Lounge’s limited selections include unique and aged bourbon, rare scotch and rye, specialty tequila, and prized Japanese whisky.

Meet best friends, make new ones and begin — or end — every Everett night with an unforgettable Rare Lounge experience.
