Our Story
The Retro Room is a vinyl lounge celebrating the bold style and timeless sounds of decades past. From the décor to the cocktails to the records spinning on the turntable, every detail is designed to create a nostalgic, vibrant, and effortlessly groovy experience.
Sip inventive cocktails, enjoy dinner, browse our vinyl collection, and pick the next record to play. With DJs spinning on weekends and a constant focus on good vibes and great sound, the Retro Room is your place to unwind, connect, and stay awhile.
You’ll find us at 867 Boylston Street, downstairs from Back Bay Social, every night from 5PM to 11PM.
The Music
Records on the turntable every night, and DJs spinning on the weekends. Browse the vinyl collection and pick the next one to play.
The Drinks
Inventive cocktails, a large-format disco-ball round for the table, wine by the glass and bottle, and a draft list that leans on New England brewers.
The Vibe
Low lights, honest prices, and zero pretension. The Retro Room is a place where conversations flow, strangers become regulars, and a Tuesday feels like a Friday. Groovy, welcoming, and completely timeless.
