The people behind a reservation-only BYO restaurant in an historic Brookline structure have opened another reservation-only spot in the same building, and this one is a BYO bar.
According to a source, Barlette is now open on the ground floor of the Coolidge Corner Arcade on Harvard Street, joining Cobble, a tiny Italian dining spot upstairs that opened in 2020. Boston Magazine mentions that the new bar offers a four-course bar snack menu while customers can bring their own beer, wine, and spirits, the latter of which can be used to make cocktails thanks to mixers and supplies being available (the workers there can't touch the drinks but can offer knowledge/advice on making drinks as needed).
BoMag says that Barlette is booked through May and that reservations for June will go up on June 1, though people can set up notifications via Resy if there are cancellations this month.
The address for Barlette is 318 Harvard Street # 11 (first floor of Arcade), Brookline, MA, 02446. Its website is at https://www.drinkatbarlette.com/
