My son and his boyfriend brought me here for brunch and, oh boy, it was good! It was certainly on the boozey side, but momma loves it! I got the French toast and it was heavenly! I saw it came with chocolate boozey whipped cream and there must have been at least half a shot of liqueur in it! I also got the caramel apple cider mimosa and it was delightful. Strong, but tasted excellent. I hope I can go back soon!!

Went there for this past Halloween costume night. Really cute smaller bar with a rather large dance floor and an outside patio with another bar and heaters (LOVE), drinks are typical gay bar prices and decently strong, bartenders were really great. Hated the bathroom setup- they have security keep the bathroom doors open (where the whole bar can see in?) and constantly bang (yes bang) on the stall doors non-stop to make sure you don’t take long- banged on my stall twice not 20 seconds after I entered! I’ve been to plenty clubs/bars where that’s not needed idk why for a smaller bar that’s necessary? Also pretty inconsiderate for those in our community who might be tucking or require a little more time in the restroom. Other than that it was a fun night. Mind you the music lacking. Appreciated the few niche hits that were played but a lot of the music wasn’t even anything you could dance to, definitely catered to yt gays but I guess that’s to be expected in Boston. Recommend for a chill(er) night nothing to rave about, let’s get some color up in that DJ booth! 💃🏻 (4 stars because I believe it’s important to give our lgbtqia+ establishments our support and a chance to improve)

Food was incredible, highly recommend the smash burger. Kevin our bartender was fantastic, he didn’t skip a beat! Vibes were immaculate. Had a great time, even on a rainy Sunday night. Cant wait to come back!

I recommend this place, and I would come back. I enjoy having a queer place to go out with my family and friends. It is a queer friendly establishment, so if you are judgemental or do not like or support lgbtq+ just find a different place. Our waiter was so cute, on top of that he was very nice funny, and informative. The food was good. It wasn't exceptional, but it was not bad. The food came out quick and it was pretty affordable. I enjoyed the music and the space. The brunch menu was kind of small, it did not have alot of options that we are used to having when we go to brunch. Nonetheless, the food was not bad and I would come back.

willing to give this place another try on a regular day, but outloud slay ride was sold out to an uncomfortable and frankly, unsafe level. blend was too small to handle the crowds. wasn't able to enjoy the show. even alyssa commented on it. not cool.

I have been coming here for years. Whether it be for dinner and drinks or a night out dancing, it is always a good time with friends. Most recently, I met up with friends and had dinner and drinks. I recently saw on their Instagram their French Onion Mac and Cheese and had to try it. By far, my FAVORITE Mac and cheese. The french onion adds a great flavor. My other two favorite dishes is the Steak Tips and the Turkey Quesadilla! Overall, we will continue to enjoy this great location in Dorchester, MA!

What a disappointment. I called and placed an order for take out. My order consisted of three things: the messy tots, chicken tenders with sweet and sour sauce, and lastly their skillet cookie. The messy tots were missing the chives and sour cream. The tenders did not have the sweet and sour sauce. And the skillet cookie was missing their homemade chocolate whipped cream. It wasn’t until I got home and realized all the missing ingredients for my order. I called Blend back, just to be let down even more. The best they could offer other than an apology was for me to come back and pick up the sauces they had forgot to pack in the bag. I would understand these mistakes if they were jam packed, but they only had three tables to serve on this cold December Saturday night. The food I did pick up was okay, but the skillet cookie was burnt, leaving me with the aftertaste of what seems like burnt out customer service.
