About Farmacia

Marble counters, green-painted shelving and a pressed-tin ceiling give this North Square room an old apothecary look, and there are only a handful of seats. Most guests book the 90-minute reserved sitting, which covers three and a half cocktails paired with small snacks from a menu that changes every few months, each run treated as a new chapter; one recent edition was built around the zodiac. Walk-ins can sometimes take bar stools and order the same drinks à la carte. Google lists it in the $100-plus band, and reviews split on value: most call the cocktails creative, balanced and worth the wait, while a couple found the snacks too slight after three drinks. It opens Wednesday to Saturday from 5pm to midnight and is closed the rest of the week. Rated 4.7 on Google, it sits at number two on Time Out's 2026 list of Boston's best bars.
