The Fenway area is full of bars, but I most often find myself at the Yard House. The Yard House is a national chain, though the Fenway one is the first in Boston. With their wide selection of beers on tap and a decent food offering, the Yard House has become one of my favorite spots to go out.
For beer lovers, the beer flights are always fun and a great deal. They have a rotating 6-pack and two more permanent offerings, the Belgian and the IPA sampler.
The food items aren't terribly exciting, but most of the foods I've tried there so far have been pretty tasty and use fresh ingredients. The steak salad was nice. The steak was okay quality, but was a little underseasoned. The greens were fresh and had an interesting sprinkling of potato chips.
