After 23 seasons of classic animated sitcom Family Guy, The Drunken Clam—the go-to watering hole for Peter Griffin and his friends in Quahog, Rhode Island—certainly feels like a real bar, even though it's an entirely fictional place. That is, until now: starting Wednesday, July 18, Family Guy's beloved TV bar will leap off the screen as popular Boston restaurant West End Johnnies (138 Portland Street) gets transformed into the Quahog hangout.

Yes, after similar successful events in Los Angeles and Houston, the team at Bucket Listers is bringing a fully interactive recreation of The Drunken Clam to the East Coast, in honor of one of television's most celebrated adult animated series.

Guests will be fully immersed in The Clam, complete with its iconic neon sign, red-leather booths and themed signature cocktails, including "The No No Noooo" (reposado tequila, watermelon, lemon, agave and tajin), the "Shut Up Meg" (infused gin, honey, lemon and thyme), the "Cool Whip" (vodka, espresso blend, Mr. Black and whipped cream) and the "Pewterschmidt Industries" (bonded bourbon, peach liqueur, lime, basil and Topo Chico).

Similarly, the "Eat My Junk" food menucreated by MasterChef finalist and Chopped champion Becky Brownfeatures creative twists on classic moments from the show, such as the Good Old Fashioned Value Burger and Greased Up Deaf Fries. And along with numerous photo opportunities, attendees will be able to partake in Family Guy-themed trivia and karaoke nights and shop a merchandise store full of exclusive Family Guy goodies.

“Peter and the guys have made thousands of dumb decisions at The Drunken Clam on Family Guy," said the show's executive producers Rich Appel and Alec Sulkin, per a press release. "This is your chance to make a few dumb decisions of your own!"
