In Boston for the day and night.
I will be done with my meetings by 11am and have the rest of the day to hang.
I have a ticket to the Yanks/Sox tonight, but looks like it may get rained out.
Looking for some good lunch and dinner options (nothing too fancy). I am staying at the Hotel Commonwealth right by Fenway.
Thanks in advance.
The location in canton (10-15 outside of boston) also does pours. You can't drink at the one is boston. This stuff is the nectar of the gods.
Do the Freedom Trail walking tour. IT leads you through the deep history of Boston (One if by land, two if by sea).
Boston Common and the Public Gardens
Have a beer at Cheers (yes its a tourist trap but its right there next to Boston Common).
Fanuel Hall - lots of shopping, bars, and people entertaining you. If you've been to Covent Garden in London, this is the US copy.
and if you haven't been the North End pastry shops are worth the visit (Mike's and Modern) both similar both probably will have lines, and at least one if not both are cash only. I like these espresso toroni things they have (I'm not a sweets guy my dessert would be another steak if i had that option or a single malt scotch, but these are out of this world), but my wife and kids go nuts for the cannoli.
Charlestown Navy Shipyard - USS Constitution and USS Cassin Young are there, with tours.
Lastly, visit Harvard and Cambridge Square
closed like 5 years go, didn't it?
There is a legal seafood test kitchen right near where it was. that is a decent place to go, because it's not like the legal chain, it's more of a one-off restaurant that they try out new dishes (and have most of their stand-byes)
they did, it was great.
I am flying into Boston tomorrow afternoon and may go there for dinner.
The Salty Pig in Back Bay. Gastropub with some great craft brews and pork specialties.
Galleria Umberto in the North End. Hole in the wall with dirt cheap Sicilian slices and lots of calzones and arancinis.
Bukowski tavern is a cool, if hipsterish, dive.
Cambridge Brewing company is across the river but has great beer and really good pub/comfort food.
The Beehive on Tremont has live jazz most nights, a cool atmosphere and good food as well.
A cocktail at the top of the hub is pretty fun too at the prudential center.
I assumed he meant Anthony's Pier 4 on the Boston Waterfront.
I've never heard of Pier 4 in Charlestown.
I walked in NYC from the Empire State Building to Eataly in 30 degree windy freezing rain to get one (not really because I wanted to, but because my boss sort of made me, but it was worth it)
