Ive been to the Black Rose on several different occasions and always have a great time. The live bands are great and very popular with the regulars. The first floor is more traditional Irish setting (traditional Irish folk music) and the crowd tends to be a bit older, the decor is also an interesting collage of Irish paraphernalia. The second floor is full of casual professionals and the younger crowd, the music is also louder and with a modern twist. I spent New Years (only a $10 cover) there and had an absolute BLAST, the free champagne was flowing! I never had to wait long to get a drink and the Guinness is reasonable considering the bars proximity to Quincy Market.
Pros: Nice crowd, Good music, Good setting
