Everybody has reasons for drinking solo: Your friends are busy, your dating life is all swipe-lefts, you’re just not in the mood for any goddamn company. In such circumstances, this modest watering hole at the edge of East Somerville can be just the tonic, with its creditable menu of Irish and American pub fare, gentle drink prices and workaday entertainments such as the game on TV, open-mic comedy and pub trivia. Sometimes a proper pint and a few bucks for that fantastic jukebox are all a solitary body needs.
