Had a great time. Excellent drinks, fair prices, fun and attractive crowd. Definitely a place where you could meet new friends. Coming back this weekend to take in the journey cover band Saturday night. Should be a blast!

Saw a band play here. Place isn’t family friendly, ITS A BAR!, staff was super helpful. Bartenders were fast and made delicious drinks. Nice big place to hang out on a Friday/Sat night. Pool tables were good. Bathrooms were clean. Plenty of place to sit down. If totally see a band play here again. Hope they keep getting good bands.

This is definitely not a place for a family to go to lunch. It might be fun on a Friday or Saturday night, but it was very dark, the atmosphere was foreboding and the view into the kitchen made me think«it’s not worth the risk». Needless to say we walked in and walked right back out.

something has happened here, last time I was here I kinda felt like I was in that scene from It’s a Wonderful Life and George Bailey gets to see how the town changed without him around, kinda harsh, kinda mean, kinda gritty, kinda not welcoming… what happened here?

Love this bar, definitely one of my favorite places to hang out on a Friday or Saturday night. There’s a couple of pool tables and dart boards, and a main bar and a back bar. On Friday and Saturday nights there’s always a band playing, they have an entertainment schedule posted on their website. Some of the bands are really good and actually develop quite a fan base, I make sure to check the schedule and go when a band I really enjoy happens to be playing. There’s usually a cover of $ 5 or $ 6 on Friday and Saturday nights. Drinks prices are pretty reasonable, I only drink mixed drinks and they’re usually about $ 6. They’re pretty strong, too!

One of the things I love about Lowell/Dracut are these local bars that seem to sprout out of nowhere. Back to the Boathouse is no exception; I grew up in the area maybe 15 minutes away and just realized that this place existed. It’s a townie type of bar, and that’s why I like it. They have good entertainment lined up, cheap drinks/beer, and is a good place to get together with friends.
