My husband and I tried Regal Beagle on Saturday for drinks and snacks at the bar – it was great! There is limited bar seating, and standing was a little awkward because the space is so narrow, but seats opened up shortly after we arrived. I tried a glass of sauvignon blanc, perfectly acceptable, and then the Girl Next Door (on your recommendation!). It was delicious! We split an assortment of bar snacks – blue cheese stuffed dates wrapped in bacon (my favorite!), crab rangoon empanadas, pumpkin hummus and lobster sliders. They were all delicious – thanks so much for the tip!

My wife and I also ate there last night (opening night). I completely agree with you on the scallops – what a great dish! I tried their burger, which was good, not spectacular, and the fries had sat around too long before getting to the table. But hey, it was opening night, I can cut them some slack.

The appetizers were weaker though. We had the tuna tartare and pork belly, both of which were just OK and could have used more flavor. The tartare had sweetness from mango but needed something savory (maybe a touch of wasabi?) to balance it, and the pork was rich but bland.

I love the bar area, very cozy and comfortable, and the staff were all friendly and had things well under control, especially considering it was their first night open.

Looks delicious. Whenever we’re in the coolidge area we usually end up at zaftig’s or fugaku. Both are favorites of mine.

Nice! Coolidge Corner definitely needs more places to eat besides The Clubhouse I’ll have to check this out. That macaroni and cheese looks right up my ally!

I’m super jealous–I lived in Coolidge Corner for a year and had the same problem finding that perfect restaurant (ended up eating WAY too many meals at the Coolidge Corner Clubhouse!) That drink looks SO good too–i LOVE grapefruit!
