#7. Cheers | Cheers
The fact that everyone knows the patrons’ names at Cheers isn’t enticing. In fact, we’d rather our depressing drinking habits remain hidden from people who know us. Yet Cheers has a friendly atmosphere and plenty of seats at the bar, which make for a good location to down a Sam Adams and watch a Red Sox game.

And since the dudes who ran it were a former Red Sox pitcher and an ex-Sox coach, the in-game commentary would be much more insightful than listening to a generic Sox fan prattle on in an awful New England accent about how Boston is so much better than New York. Lastly, Cheers owner Rebecca Howe was played by a youthful Kirstie Alley. You know, when Kirstie was — gasp — thin and hot.
