Lakeville, MA nightlife runs on one brewery taproom, one pizzeria with a busy draft bar and four golf clubhouses that serve the public. There’s no bar strip and no walkable block of late rooms, and most kitchens stop serving between 8 and 10 p.m. This guide covers what’s open inside Lakeville, what runs later in Middleborough about 10 minutes north, and where to find live music a short drive out.
How a Night Out Works in a Town of About 11,500
Lakeville’s bars aren’t downtown, because Lakeville doesn’t have one. They sit where land was cheap and parking is free, and nothing is walkable to anything else, so you drive to a single place and drive home. The town holds 11,523 people across 36 square miles, according to Lakeville’s 2020 census figures, which explains the spacing.
Three clusters cover almost all of it. Lakeville Center, where Routes 18 and 105 meet, holds the brewery on Bedford Street right beside Town Hall. North Lakeville, along Main Street (Route 105) toward Lakeville station, has the pizzeria bar that feels most like a proper night out. The golf bars sit on Clear Pond Road, Leonard Street, Heritage Hill Drive and Rhode Island Road, and all of them serve the public. Nothing in town pours past 10:30 p.m.
Bars and Breweries Inside Lakeville
Every venue below is inside Lakeville and a short drive from the Routes 18 and 105 junction. Hours were checked in September 2026 and shift seasonally, so confirm before you go.
Red Hand Brewing Co.: The Closest Thing Lakeville Has to a Night Out
Red Hand Brewing Co. at 348 Bedford Street, next to Town Hall in Lakeville Center, is the town’s default answer. It’s a family-owned taproom with lake views, house-brewed beer alongside an extended tap list, handcrafted cocktails and a whiskey program. Food comes from a rotating food truck, such as Travelers On Tour, rather than a kitchen. Fire pits carry the shoulder seasons, and the calendar runs trivia, bingo, line dancing, open mic and Cars & Coffee. Red Hand’s posted hours are Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 2 to 9 p.m., Friday noon to 10 p.m., Saturday 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sunday 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. It’s closed Tuesday.
A brewery holds more merchandise, glassware and event gear than a taproom floor absorbs, which is why climate-controlled storage in Lakeville shows up in local business plans. The Cars & Coffee regulars face the same problem in another shape, since a summer car has to sit out a New England winter somewhere, often in car storage.
Baldie’s Craft Pizzeria: A Rotating Draft List at a Copper Bar
Baldie’s Craft Pizzeria at 40 Main Street in north Lakeville is where the town goes to drink as much as to eat. A rotating selection of draft beer lines the copper bar, and the wood-fired brick oven sits in the middle of the room. Baldie’s reviewers single out the Buffalo chicken pizza, the chowder and the pork belly tacos. It takes reservations, so book ahead on a Friday. It’s open 11 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, the latest close inside the town line, and 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. the rest of the week. The best restaurants in Lakeville guide covers where else to eat.
Poquoy Brook Pub: Live Music Every Saturday Night
Poquoy Brook Pub at 20 Leonard Street is a golf pub that stopped acting like one. The granite-topped bar seats 26, there are seven TVs and 30 beers on tap, and the pub’s own page promises live entertainment every Saturday night starting around 7 p.m. It’s open to the public seven days a week, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Lakeville Country Club: A Public Bar With a Sunset Deck
Lakeville Country Club at 44 Clear Pond Road runs a full-service bar seven days a week with a jukebox, Keno and TVs, and the sunset deck looks out over the water. The dining room is open to the public, which isn’t obvious from the road. Kitchen hours are the catch: the club lists 4 to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and 3 to 8 p.m. on weekends, so there’s no lunch on a Saturday.
LeBaron Hills Country Club: Cocktails and a Terrace Fire Pit
LeBaron Hills Country Club at 183 Rhode Island Road is the dressier option. Its public restaurant, the Sunset Grille, runs an executive chef’s menu from elevated dishes to classic pub fare, with beer, wine and signature cocktails to match. The terrace and its fire pit are the reason to come in September and October. The Grille Room is for members, but the restaurant and terrace are open to anyone. LeBaron’s hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday, and it’s closed Monday.
The Back Nine Pub and Broken Tee: The Casual End of the Golf Bars
The Back Nine Pub at Heritage Hill Golf Course, 17 Heritage Hill Drive, is the least formal of the four golf rooms, and it’s open to the public daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. for golfers and walk-in guests alike. The course was formerly The Back Nine Club, so older listings still carry that name. It changed hands in February 2026, and the property now has a Toptracer range. Broken Tee Virtual Golf Club at 166 County Street is the winter equivalent, with four Full Swing simulators and a lounge serving drinks, beers and snacks, plus pizza from Fat Cousins next door. Broken Tee is open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday. The Lakeville golf courses guide compares the courses themselves.
JMAC’s On The Pond: Bar Pizza Inside the Eagles Hall
JMAC’s On The Pond at 217 County Street serves bar-style pizza, smashburgers, wings and weekly specials. The address throws off first-timers, because it operates inside the Eagles building with no standalone restaurant to look for. It’s closed Monday through Wednesday, open 4:30 to 8 p.m. Thursday, noon to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and noon to 8 p.m. Sunday.
Later Kitchens and Taprooms in Middleborough
Middleborough sits about 10 minutes north and is where a Lakeville night goes when 9 p.m. arrives too early. Its center has a short main street, several taverns and the MBTA station that opened on March 24, 2025.
The Hideaway: Open to 11 p.m. on Weekends
The Hideaway at 9 Station Street is open until 11 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, genuinely late for this corner of southeastern Massachusetts. The Hideaway serves American comfort food, including hand-cut steaks, burgers, seafood and pasta, plus a pizza bar. It’s the sister restaurant of Baldie’s, which is why the beer list feels familiar. It’s closed Monday. If you want somewhere open after 10 p.m. without driving to a city, this is the answer.
Harper Lane Brewery: 12 Taps in Downtown Middleborough
Harper Lane Brewery at 16 Wareham Street is a family-owned microbrewery with 12 rotating draft lines of beer and hard seltzer, plus cans and growlers to go, and Harper Lane has been brewing since 2017. Hours are narrow: Thursday 3 to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon to 10 p.m. and Sunday noon to 6 p.m.
Live Music and Bigger Rooms Nearby
Two rooms outside Lakeville earn the extra drive when the night needs music or space.
The Profile Tavern at 2 Crossroads Drive in East Freetown, just south of Lakeville, takes reservations and runs live music on Thursday and Saturday, with musical bingo and trivia on Monday. The Profile Tavern is open 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday and Sunday, and until 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Book ahead on a music night. Bands working this circuit keep a PA and road cases somewhere between gigs, and a 5×10 unit swallows exactly that.
Stoneforge Tavern and Publick House at 90 Paramount Drive in Raynham, northwest of Lakeville, has a full bar and advertises live entertainment in its courtyard, weather permitting. Its posted hours don’t agree from one listing to the next, so call before you drive over.
Parking, Last Call and What Winter Does to the Calendar
Parking is never the problem in Lakeville, and reservations occasionally are. Every venue has its own lot. Parking only tightens in Lakeville Center on festival day, when the Lakeville Arts & Music Festival takes over Routes 105 and 18 and Precinct Street, this year on Saturday, October 3, 2026.
Mondays are quieter than you’d expect. LeBaron Hills and The Hideaway close Mondays, Red Hand closes Tuesdays, and JMAC’s doesn’t open until Thursday. A Monday night out here still has options: Red Hand, Baldie’s, The Back Nine Pub, Poquoy Brook Pub and Lakeville Country Club are all open.
Winter reshapes the rest. Snow, ice and nor’easters typically run December through March, and the back roads are slow going after a storm. Red Hand’s fire pits and LeBaron’s terrace go dormant, boats come off Long Pond in the fall and into boat storage, and Broken Tee’s winter and spring nine-hole simulator leagues, open to all, fill the bays.
For a city night, Providence is about 40 minutes west and close enough for dinner and back, while Boston is better reached by rail from Middleborough than by car on Route 24. Both sit in the day trips from Lakeville guide, and the daytime version is in things to do in Lakeville.

Is Lakeville, MA a nice town for a night out?
Lakeville is a quiet rural town, and its nightlife matches: one brewery, one busy pizzeria bar, four golf clubhouse bars and free parking at all of them. What it lacks is a walkable strip, a club or a kitchen open past 10:30 p.m. Treat it as one good stop rather than a bar crawl and it holds up.
Storage Space for the Overflow in Lakeville
If a move, a downsizing or a garage full of seasonal gear has run you out of room, Value Store It in Lakeville rents month-to-month with no long-term contract and access seven days a week.
The range covers most of what people need. A 5×5 locker, about the size of a small closet, holds bar stools, records and holiday bins. A 10×5 unit takes the contents of one room, the same 50 square feet as a 5×10. A 5×15 unit holds the contents of two rooms, roughly a studio apartment. A 10×10 unit suits a one-bedroom apartment, and a 10×15 suits a two-bedroom apartment. A 10×20 fits a three-bedroom home. The 10×30 takes a four-bedroom home or a small business’s inventory. The storage unit size guide compares them if you’re stuck.
