Chicago-based Bottleneck Management announces the forthcoming opening of City Works Eatery & Pour House at 91 Arsenal Yards Blvd. in the Arsenal Yards development in Watertown. Slated to open to the public on Monday, March 16th, this will be the tenth location of City Works in the country.

Helmed by General Manager Daniels White and Executive Chef Chris Kravitz, the new restaurant offers an extensive craft beer list of over 90 local, regional, and global craft brews, complemented by classic American cuisine with chef-driven twists.

Diners can find a beer for every taste at City Works, with a massive draft selection to choose from, including 12 rotating handles for rare, limited, and seasonal brews. 30-40 taps in the vast draft selection are sourced from breweries around the Boston area, including Mighty Squirrel Brewing, Wormtown Brewery, Cambridge Brewing, Jack’s Abby, and many others. Guests can sample and enjoy a wide array of beers in 6 oz. tasting portions as well as full-sized portions. Pre-selected flights are on the menu, as well as a build-your-own flight option.

City Works’ draft system also extends to wine, showcasing eight varietals of draft wine which offer the benefits of fresh, consistent flavor and a more environmentally conscious way to serve wine.  Rounding out its robust beverage program, City Works also carries White Claw in mango and black cherry.
