Chill Lounge in Back Bay Beacon Hill?
Hey, have a chill w/e coming up with a lady in BOS. Looking for a sedate lounge, very chill & relaxed, 30+ crowd in Back Bay/Beacon Hill. Sort of the equivalent of The Brandy Library in Manhattan. Not Daisy's, not the Penalty Box, not Beacon Hill Pub. Walking distance from the Public Garden preferred.
Think clandestine and posh, stylish, dimly lit. Hotel bar okay...rooftop/view would be cool, but not required.
Suggestions?
TIA,
O/H

On the outskirts of Beacon Hill but definitely worth checking out - Clink at the Liberty Hotel fits your description. The hotel itself is worth checking out and definitely a great place to stay. It's an ex-early 1900's prison, hence the name of the bar.

Thanks for the suggestions, I will check them out. There also appears to be a bar called "Alibi" at the Liberty Hotel (formerly the Charles St. jail, no?) but it seems to be having an event (costume party) on Sat which would be no joy.

If you want a quality craft cocktail, definitely go to No. 9 Park.
I'll be there myself tonight. Last night was Drink and the night before was Craigie on Main.

Drink is packed with a 20-something crowd and a line on weekends. Not sure if that is what you're looking for, based on the original post.
I second the recommendation for Clink - their food is pretty good, too.

Have not been in a couple years but The Oak Bar in the Fairmont Copley Plaza may fit the bill even though it is not on Beacon Hill. It is on the ground floor with only a view of the Boston Public Library, however.
