Things To Do
Fenway Park
No baseball in the winter but Fenway still hosts public tours on the hour throughout the off season! Make sure to fit in some time to see America's oldest ballpark.
Boston Public Library
Established in 1848, the Boston Public Library (BPL) was the first large free municipal library in the United States and continues to be a popular attraction in the city.
Newbury Street
Located in the Back Bay neighborhood of Boston, Newbury Street is eight blocks of classic brownstones filled with great restaurants and shops. If visiting Newbury we recommend dinner at Casa Romero, a sandwich to-go from DeLuca's Market or oysters at Saltie Girl. Newbury ends at the intersection of Arlington St which backs right into the Boston Public Garden.
North End
The "Little Italy" of Boston, the North End is full of history and amazing food. Grab a cannoli for dessert at Modern Pastry or Mike's Pastry and get tickets to a late night show at Improv Asylum!
Time Out Market Boston
Time Out is an awesome place to go for a taste of Boston's best restaurants. We especially love a donut and iced coffee at Union Square Donuts. Otherwise, we go a bit later in the day for a cold beer at Trillium Brewery.
Freedom Trail
This 2.5 mile path passes by 16 locations significant to the history of the United States. Marked largely with brick, it winds between Boston Common to the Bunker Hill Monument in Charlestown. Bring your parka to walk the streets of Boston in December but a must do for all history lovers.
Harpoon Brewery & Beer Hall
You can often find us at Harpoon enjoying a local brew and playing games with friends. Get here early to sign-up for a tour and grab a spot at one of the tables in the beer hall. Of course you can't truly enjoy their beer without the soft pretzels and dipping sauces. Our good friend and local Boston boy Dennis cannot speak highly enough of this place.
Boston Common
Boston Common is America's oldest public park founded in 1634. Here you can explore the park, skate Frog Pond, as well as vist the Boston Public Garden which is just adjacent to The Common.
