Beloved Bar To Celebrate Allston Christmas With $1 Hot Dogs

ALLSTON, MA — This Allston Christmas, one local bar is helping residents fuel, refuel and celebrate big finds.

Allston Christmas is named for the plethora of furniture and other household goods left on the curb on Aug. 31, one day ahead of when most leases in Boston reset on Sept. 1.

Opening early on Aug. 31, the bar will be decked in Yuletide décor complete with an inflatable Santa dancing in the wind atop the roof, officials said.

Perhaps most importantly for those hoping to score big this year are cheap food options to refuel after lugging a new couch home.

The bar’s signature “Sil Dogs” – all-beef franks nestled in their buns with the option to top them with ketchup, mustard, and relish – will be available for only $1 per hot dog with the purchase of a boozy beverage.

The lounge will also feature drink specials, including: All I Got for XMAS is Storrowed, a High Noon peach vodka seltzer with a Pasoa passionfruit float ($10); The Grinch Who Stole My Parking Spot, a shot of Rumchata peppermint and crème de menthe ($7); and On the First Day of Allston XMAS My… bartender gave me their choice of a shot and beer ($10).

The lounge is located at 200 Brighton Ave. It'll be open from noon to 1 a.m. on Aug. 31.
