The Boston Eagle Space in the South End Will Become Home to a New Bar

Earlier this year, it appeared that one of the oldest gay bars in Boston had closed. Now we have learned that the space might not be empty for too much longer.

According to a post from BosGuy, a new bar is being planned for the South End space that had been home to The Boston Eagle, and though details are few, it looks like a couple will be behind the spot and that it will open in 2022. In early March BosGuy mentioned that the Tremont Street bar (which was also known as ("The Dirty Bird") was shuttered and for rent, saying at the time that "The lease for the 1,400 sq. foot bar also comes with the use of a license for food, entertainment and liquor until 2:00 AM."

The Boston Eagle had been in business for more than 40 years.

The address for The Boston Eagle space (and upcoming bar) is 520 Tremont Street, Boston, MA, 02116.

Thanks to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page for initially bringing this to our attention.
