Welcome to the Muddy Charles Pub an MIT Campus Staple Since 1968

“Where Great Minds Unwind”

We have welcomed everyone from Nobel Laureates to graduate students, played host to entrepreneurs and their start-ups, and enjoyed global exposure. Most of the patrons are MIT graduate students, and prices are kept affordable.

MIT News Produced a Video to Commemorate our 50th Anniversary!
