Elizabeth & Jonathan
Things To Do
Coolidge Corner Clubhouse
The longstanding Brookline sports bar where we first met. Tons of TVs to watch whatever game you'd like, incredible food, and over 30 beers on tap. We recommend the Bud Lite.
Freedom Trail
The red brick path you see inlaid on Boston sidewalks leads you on a 2.5-mile path of American Revolutionary sites. It takes you on a unique collection of museums, burying grounds, parks, a ship, and historic markers, literally laying out colonial history on the streets.
Swan Boats
Pedal-powered boats that give incredible views of the Public Garden. Most importantly, they were in Make Way for Ducklings.
Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum
A museum founded by Isabella Stewart Gardner, whose will called for her art collection to be permanently exhibited "for the education and enjoyment of the public forever". It houses Elizabeth's favorite painting, El Jaleo, by John Singer Sargent.
Newbury Street
Eight blocks lined with 19th century brownstones and filled with salons, boutiques, and fabulous dining. The most distinct and stylish shopping street in Boston.
Coolidge Corner Theatre
New England's most successful independent, nonprofit cinema. Built in Brookline in 1933, it has become a beloved and highly valued institution in the community. Also, they use real melted butter on their popcorn.
Harpoon Brewery
Home of New England's original IPA, Harpoon is one of Boston's best. Large tables, friendly staff, and multiple award-winning brews. Plus, their soft pretzels are made of leftover yeast from their beer.
