If a more perfect bar exists, we have not found it. This is a staple in our relationship. Shrimp and grits are amazing! Unfortunately, they removed the pretzel bites from the menu; true shame
Ritz-Carlton Lobby Bar
Boston Common, Boston, MA 02111
Another great bar with amazing bar nuts and no pretzel bits. We love the lobby bar, it's no Oak Bar but still up there
Sip Wine Bar and Kitchen
581 Washington Street, Boston, MA 02111
This was our third or fourth date, great food, and pretty close to the Omni Parker.
Yvonne's
2 Winter Place, Boston, MA 02108
Great late night speakeasy
The Hill Tavern
228 Cambridge Street, Boston, MA 02114
This was our second date spot, New Year's Day. Fantastic Nachos, the pulled pork is a must add-on. No Pretzels. Never-the-less fun spot if exploring beacon hill or the Esplanade
Night Shift Brewing - Lovejoy Wharf
1 Lovejoy Wharf, Boston, MA 02114
It's a fun spot right next to TD; we love their Pretzel bites!
Carmelina's
307 Hanover Street, Boston, MA 02113
Our other favorite spot is in the north end, but to get a reservation, check early, and often, they book out around two months in advance. But so worth it, great food, great prices!
Nando
393 Hanover Street, Boston, MA 02113
It's one of our two go-to spots in the north end. Recently opened, it is a converted pharmacy. The Calimari and espresso martinis ( on the rocks) are great.
Faneuil Hall Marketplace
60 State St, Boston, MA 02109, Boston, MA 02109
Boston Sail Loft
80 Atlantic Avenue, Boston, MA 02110
Another tried and true! It does get crowded; no reservations ahead of time. Nevertheless, this ship-style bar/restaurant has great clam chowder, and calamari and is right next to the yacht club, which has a great walking path!
The Landing at Long Wharf
1 Long Wharf, Boston, MA 02110
A nice cocktail outside on the water, what could be better? They don't really serve food aside from chips, but it's a fun day spot!
Woods Hill Pier 4
300 Pier 4 Boulevard, Boston, MA 02210
Incredible, Cole and I love the Seaport, and this is always our go-to, amazing staff, oysters, and right on the water. We love the ICA as well and it's right next door so it's perfect
Institute of Contemporary Art
25 Harbor Shore Drive, Boston, MA 02210
Great art, views, and areas. They also have a shuttle boat to their outlet museum (watershed) across the water in Eastie, which is a fun way to get on the water! ( PS, the Eastie ICA , is next door to a cider brewery, just saying )
Harpoon Brewery
306 Northern Avenue, Boston, MA 02210
The top tier of pretzels in Boston! Harpoon is located in the Seaport, a short walk from ICA and Woods Hill. They have Beer, Cider, Seltzers and a cute shop. This was on the list for a reception party... So, if you go, let us know!
The Barking Crab
88 Sleeper Street, Boston, MA 02210
Saltie Girl
279 Dartmouth Street, Boston, MA 02116
The fried lobster and waffles are incredible! Cole brought me here after first going with his dad over Christmas 2018. It has been our go-to brunch spot since!
Eataly
800 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02199
Museum of Science
Museum Of Science Driveway, Boston, MA 02114
Big fans! Almost had the wedding here
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
465 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA 02115
We went here together in June 2019, when we first started dating, long but fun and ACed.
Boston Red Sox Game
4 Jersey Street, Boston, MA 02215
The Red Sox will be playing the Yankees at home (Fenway) Sunday.
Boston Comicon
900 Boylston Street, Boston, MA 02115
A ComicCon will be happening June 14th-16th. While we appreciate festive costumes, unless you're going as Sherlock Holmes or James Bond, you might want a change of clothes for the wedding.
