A new Irish pub is coming to a space just off the Southeast Expressway, and it will be replacing another Irish pub.
According to an article from the Dorchester Reporter, Session House is planning to open in the Adams Village neighborhood of Dorchester, taking over the former Scobie's Cafe & Bar space by the corner of Adams Street and Gallivan Boulevard. The article mentions that the upcoming spot will focus in part on live music (including traditional Irish music) and that it will offer elevated pub fare along with craft beer, wine, whiskey, and cocktails. If all goes as planned, Session House could be opening this fall.
Scobie's, which first opened in the summer of 2024, temporarily closed in February of this year for renovations, but apparently never reopened.
The address for the upcoming Session House is 782 Adams Street, Dorchester, MA, 02124.
