Trendy spots open regularly, but Top of the Hub remains the apex of special-occasion cocktailing, the place to celebrate proposals, promotions, anniversaries and birthdays with a bit of bubbly. Offering sunny skyscapes and glittery fields of the city’s night lights, its still-unbeatable 52nd-floor views are worth drinking in anytime. So instead of leaving them to the tourist droves, reclaim a bar seat as one of Boston’s own and garnish your cocktail with a front-row view.
