Go see the Constitution.

This. Highlight of my trip.

I spent a day walking around Fenway and took the tour. Neat place.

Wife and I did Faenuli Hall and marketplace.

Eat a 5lb lobster somewhere.

Cheers was just okay. It’s touristy. Food is mediocre. Beer was cold.

If you’re staying in the city, there’s zero reason to rent a car. Take the T, walk or Uber

Freedom Trail and the Fenway Park tour are both really interesting.

I’m sorry but I couldn’t discourage this enough. Huge tourist trap.

Go to Harvard. Find a chick named Skylar. Bone her.

Layers baw. Don't just go walking around in a sweatshirt without a jacket in tow. Because once that Harbor air sets in the evening, you won't be able to think if you're not layered up. Found this out the hard way many years ago at Fenway during the Easter break.

And after you bone her, ask her if she likes apples and go to MIT and finish other people's equations on the chalk board.

Walk the Freedom Trail. Barhop along the way.

Go to Fenway, catch a game if possible.

China Town is legit. Lots of great restaurants and things to see.

Very good aquarium

Don't skip the Holocaust Monument. Very impressive and moving.

Eat in The North End more than once.


We went during Covid, so I'm sure you will have more options now. Lots of breweries were shut down we went, but lots of good ones around town

I’d recommend Harpoon, Trillium and Night Shift before SA

Trillium is a great brewery to visit
Bar hop while you’re there
The friendly toast is a really good spot for breakfast/brunch
Go to Boston Public Garden, brings some almonds and feed the squirrels
And hit up little Italy for coffee and pastries. Modern Pastry was great last time we went

100% agree with this. Don’t waste your time with Sam Adams.

Yeah I have no clue what he’s talking about. And I’ve been out around Fenway very late at night many times (RIP Baseball Tavern)
