Cask 'n Flagon Plans Expansion Project

BOSTON-The Cask ‘n Flagon, a corner bar that has been across from Fenway Park for more than 35 years, has applied to the city for permission to make multimillion dollar improvements. Plans include creating a wraparound outdoor patio and what could be the city’s largest rooftop lounge.

The proposed renovation project, to be constructed atop the watering hole’s Lansdown Street and Brookline Avenue location, would allow 440 fans atop the roof deck to hear the game and possibly catch a home-run ball. “It’s a huge expansion,” Daniel F. Pokaski, chairman of the city’s licensing board tells GlobeSt.com. “They’re not only expanding on the roof deck but their dining area and function halls. They’re looking to go from about 400 people to about 1,200.”
