Boston, Massachusetts
Cocktail lounge in the historic home of Boston's former Eagle bar.
The Kartal is an intimate cocktail lounge in Boston’s South End, occupying the historic address of the former Boston Eagle (1981–2021). Its name—Turkish for ‘eagle’—and an entryway mosaic pay homage to the 40-year queer history of the space. While its primary focus is on craft cocktails and a sophisticated atmosphere, it remains an unofficial gathering point for the local LGBTQ+ community. The venue is open Tuesday through Saturday and maintains a dress code on weekend nights to complement its chic, modern interior.
