Turning 21 is a fabulous time in the life of any college student. Vox Populi makes it that much better.
Located on Boylston Street across from the Prudential Center, Vox aims to please. The bartenders are friendly and talkative while maintaining a professional demeanor. Dressed in black, they are also easily distinguishable. While the bartenders exude class, so does the atmosphere. With two levels, there's an area for everyone. The first floor is your typical bar area; chaos persists, heightened by customers shouting drink orders to the bartenders. Lack of seating on a busy night is a reality on the main level, although booths are set up in the back for those who plan to eat and drink.
Upstairs, however, is much more relaxing. Several alcoves supply guests with privacy and seclusion from the hustle and bustle of most bars; it's a great place to spend the night with four or five of your closest friends. The couches offer comfort and create the perfect mood for those lingering conversations. The upstairs area also offers a personal waiter of sorts. Each bartender will come back to your specific alcove, requiring little to no effort to get to your happy place.
Although Vox is frequented by the after-hours businessmen of Boston, it's also a great place to bring a date or friends on a special occasion. Unlike the seedy college bars that are near and dear to us all, Vox is a more upscale bar and its prices are proof. Martinis will cost you $11 each. This seems like a lot, but the quality cannot be denied. Every martini was delicious, particularly the Candle Apple. Mojitos ($12 each), specifically the Raspberry Lime Ricky, were equally satisfying. For the beer drinkers, Vox serves both bottled and draught for $5 each. An extensive wine and champagne list is also included in the menu. Whether your choice of drink is hard alcohol, beer, or wine, Vox has something for everyone. With an atmosphere to please any preference, the bar provides a night you'll always remember … if the shots don't get to you first. A
