Renegade's Guild fittingly opens on Wednesday, April 18, the commemoration of Paul Revere's 1775 midnight ride. The new eatery and bar in the Revere Hotel Boston Common retunes the frontier silversmith's story into one of young resistance, eats, and appropriately named mixed drinks.
"You grow up with a veneration for the Founding Fathers and this picture of them as agents and legal figures. Be that as it may, these were young fellows causing inconvenience," said Sean Dutson, the Revere Hotel's official cook. "That sort of fearlessness and guts to conflict with the grain is something I now comprehend and respect."

Renegade's Guild is a total revamp of the previous Emerald Lounge club. It's a cutting edge bar with a dull palette and, maybe, a marginally conspiratorial air. As you stroll through the entryway, a fairly forcing standard, high quality by Sharon-based craftsman Bruce Rosenbaum, points directly at you. Smoky, shaded paintings fill the dividers with shadowy figures in frontier clothing; eyes peer out, shaded by cap and shroud. A metal screen divider has a goliath Masonic-style eye that watches over the room.
