Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The beverage program at The Old Union Hotel splits between a beer selection that guests describe as good and a non-alcoholic list with real range. Sam Adams is a reported order, and the menu lays out a full set of soft drinks: Starry, Lemonade, Cranberry Juice, and more. That combination gives the place a straightforward, useful drink list rather than a specialized one.
- What should I order?
- Order a Sam Adams if you are drinking beer; it is the named selection customers have reported. For a non-alcoholic option, Starry, Lemonade, or Cranberry Juice are all listed on the menu under DRINKS.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Anyone who wants a familiar beer alongside a meal, or a clearly listed non-alcoholic drink without having to ask. The menu covers both without pushing toward anything obscure or specialized.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The non-alcoholic list is unusually complete for a restaurant beverage program, naming ten options from Pepsi and Ginger Ale to Starry, Cranberry Juice, Unsweetened Iced Tea, and Red Bull. The beer side stays simple, anchored by Sam Adams and a customer-described good selection.
Beverage categories
We only score what a venue sets out to do. Categories a venue doesn't attempt are left unscored rather than penalized.
Beer
Beer here is a straightforward, customer-supported selection rather than a deep or specialized list. A recent account describes a good selection of beers, and Sam Adams is the one named order reported alongside wings. That is enough to call the beer program solid and useful, but not enough to claim breadth or a curated roster.
Menu strengths
- — A recent customer account describes a good selection of beers at the venue.
- — Sam Adams is a reported beer order, showing at least one recognizable, dependable option.
Standout selections

Nonalcoholic
The menu names Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Ginger Ale, Mountain Dew, Bottled Root Beer, Starry, Lemonade, Cranberry Juice, Unsweetened Iced Tea, and Red Bull. That is a broad, concrete set of choices rather than a token soda or two, and it gives non-drinkers real room to pick.
