Cheers Closing Its Door

Aug 20, 2020 | 11:04 AM

At some point growing up we have all seen an episode or two of the TV show Cheers. Well did you know the “Cheers bar” was based on the Bull & Finch Pub in Boston.

Back when producers for the show were searching for a location to depict the ideal American bar, they began their search in Boston and after visiting Bull & Finch Pub and other bars in Boston producers returned to the bar and declared it the place.

After awhile the bar would adopt the name of the show where everyone knows your name and 2001 they expanded and opened a second location in Faneuil Hall Marketplace that was a replica to the TV show bar. It is this replica Cheers bar that will be closing its doors after nearly 20 years. However, the original bar will remain open.
