What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives featured The Quiet Few in the episode "Burgers, Bone Marrow & Bangladesh," which aired October 18, 2024, for burgers served at its East Boston whiskey tavern. The bar, on Sumner Street, describes itself on its own website as a neighborhood whiskey tavern with the line "No frills. Couple of spills," according to thequietfew.com. On September 8, 2026, that website listed day-by-day hours, including a 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. schedule and separate patio hours, a "Food & Drink" menu page, and content dated to 2025. The site also announced that its patio had recently reopened for the season and directed visitors to the tavern's Instagram account, @thequietfew, and to a separate "Home" and "Contact" page for further updates.
