Boston Guide

I’ve been to Boston a couple of times for both work (tough gig!) and on holiday. The following is a list of places I’d recommend checking out!

Hotels

Canopy Boston Downtown. Stayed here everytime. Nice rooms, great neighbourhood, and a cool market just opposite perfect for breafkast!

Anchovies great neighbourhood bar that does a KILLER martini! Food isn’t that bad either.
The Sevens Ale House small pub in Beacon Hill with a good range of draft beers and a nice lunch selection.
Ward 8 nice bar just near TD Garden. Good bar food, and a nice frozen martini!
The Point Boston lively pub right next to the Canopy Hotel. Good beer and wine selection, with good selection of TV’s for sport.
Monument Charlestown Tavern nice pub in Charlestown perfect for if you’ve walked here on the Freedom Trail. Good range of beers, and great pizza and skillet wings!
Backbar cool cocktail bar in Summerville.
Oak Long Bar clasic hotel cocktail bar in the Fairmont. Good cocktails, and the food looked good. Reservations not required if happy (and can find a spot) to sit at the bar.

Sam Adams Downtown if you like Sam Adams this is a must visit. Great roop top terrace for alfresco beers!
