The Regatta Bar is a long-standing music venue located in the Charles Hotel overlooking the Charles River in Cambridge. Established in 1979 alongside the hotel's opening, it has become a prominent fixture in the Boston-area jazz and blues scene. Historically, the bar has hosted a diverse range of nationally and internationally recognized musicians, fostering a reputation for intimate performances and high-quality sound. It’s known for its relatively small capacity creating a close connection between performers and audience members. The venue maintains a classic bar atmosphere with views of rowing activity on the river – hence its name referencing the sport of regatta.
