Wife and I are trying to plan a 5 day trip to Boston with no kids. I know of the definitive Boston thread and have frequented it looking for ideas but I was hoping to get any new places to eat or new things to do if there are any. Also, best place for a lobster roll while we are there?

So you ask a year and a half in advance of your trip? Perhaps check back in this time next year.

James Hook would be my vote for lobster roll.

Row 34 for seafood is very good. Fenway is a must. Use the T. For all other questions, ask Abita.

You're planning a Boston trip 14 months in advance...?

I took advice on that thread on my first trip and had the lobster roll from Saltie Girl (one hot and one cold) and thought they were fantastic.

And don't feel bad, I am planning vacations for summer 2024 right now.

Best place for a lobster roll (IMO) is Saltie Girl in the Back Bay.

There are new places popping up constantly, so a year and a half from now there will be a ton of options that don’t exist as I type this.

Types of food you’re looking for? Price? Helping narrow it down would help so I’m not typing every new restaurant in the city.

I keep saying I’ll update the main thread, but it’s so much work….

Just dropping in to say I went to Portland, Maine last May and bought a lobster roll and thought it was one of the most bland, overpriced things I’ve ever eaten . If you’ve never had one though I’d say go for it.

A cool bar I visited in Boston during that same trip is called Drink. It’s an underground bar with limited seating that doesn’t have a menu. You get your own personal bartender and they ask what sort of drinks, liquors or flavors you’re into and they make custom stuff for you. I think like $15 per cocktail or so. It was a cool experience.
