Jamaica Plain
Triple D's

MORE INFORMATION
Triple D's

Location: 437 Huntington Ave., Jamaica Plain.

Hours: Mon.-Sat., 8 a.m.-1 a.m.; Sun., 11 a.m.-1 a.m.

Phone: 617-522-4966.

Beers on tap: 10.

Food: Breakfast, lunch, dinner, weekend brunches. "The turkey dinner on Sunday - I swear to God - it's as good as my mother's," says bartender Art Stadnik.

Uncertifiable claim: Triple D's was Boston's first sports bar.

Ticket shock: After a few incidents with police ticketing motorcycles, owner Joe Devlin hired a surveyor to mark exactly where the sidewalk ends and Triple D's' property begins. Now there's a ticket-free zone.

The three D's are former professional boxer Joe Devlin, his brother Sonny Devlin, and their friend Tom DeCourcey, who opened the bar 25 years ago. Triple D's is a cigar-chomping, fan-of-the-fights kind of place. Lining the walls are black-and-white photos of old-time boxers, from Jack Dempsey to John L. Sullivan to Joe Devlin himself, leather-gloved fists up and ready for action.

But despite the pugilistic decor, the crowd at Triple D's is a friendly bunch. The classic middle-of-the-room square bar sits in a well-lit room with plenty of seating. A separate room is set off for dining.

Sundays, when the weather allows, Triple D's has been known to attract a few (congenial) motorcycle groups.
