Pete's is what many people would describe as "just a local bar", but it's a whole lot more than that to the musicians and patrons who go there.
It's located across the street from what used to be a huge General Dynamics shipyard in Quincy, Massachusetts, so you know it was always a rowdy place. The shipyard is gone now, but Pete's is still there... keeping working people happy...
They are never going to get an award for their decor, but the people who go there know that the Music Kicks Ass, the Food is really Good, the drinks won't break the bank and the Bartender's remember your name and what you're drinking.
Next time you're in or around Boston, pop over to Quincy and drop in to Pete's. Tell Greg Gangi, Satch Romano and Levi Filho that Bobby Sent You...
You owe it to yourself to check it out. It's "the very best place to go."

VERSE
Well …. down at Pete’s Grille you always gonna know in advance
You can shoot a little pool have a drink or 2 and get up and dance
Might even meet somebody that YOU might wanna talk to …
and if you’re lucky they might wanna talk to you too
VERSE
We got Greg behind the bar and he’s always got a joke or two
He’ll remember your name and the drinks that he makes for you
and Satch always books the very best bands in town
when you walk into Pete’s y’know you’ll always find a friend around
CHORUS:
That’s why Pete’s Bar and Grille is the very best place to go
It’s just around the corner and there’s always a mighty fine show
You’ll find everything you want includin’ somethin’ you might not know
You gonna have a Good Time and you Won’t spend all-of-your dough
(guitar)
VERSE
When the band’s loading in out there in the parking lot
the aroma from the kitchen starts givin’ me food for thought
by the end of Set One I know I’m gon' be hungry as hell
cuz’ I know Levi’s cooking tastes twice as good as it smells
CHORUS:
That’s why Pete’s Bar and Grille is the very best place to go
It’s just around the corner and there’s always a mighty fine show
You’ll find everything you want includin’ somethin’ you might not know
You gonna have a great night ’n not have to spend all your dough
You gonna have a Good Time and you Won’t spend all-of-your dough
OH… They’ll be callin you a cab and you’ll still have plenty of dough
