I’m already walking toward that pig slide that went viral, what other shenanigans should I experience in this town?

edit: apparently i’ve been spelling Boston wrong.

    Lots of things listed that, while fun, are pretty touristy. As a local I feel like I avoid those areas but here’s some food/drink spots you might check out:

    Seaport: Drink

    • I haven’t been here since COVID and some staff changes. But used to be a great bar. $$$$

    Bar Taco

    • these are apparently a chain, but pretty good food $$

    Row34

    • Great seafood. But expensive $$$$$

    Back Bay Area: Faccia A Faccia

    • great pasta. Close enough to the airport. Around a bunch of shopping if you want touristy things after $$$
    • Bar Paloma in the basement has great drinks and staff. $$$ Hecate
    • bar with great drinks. $$$$$

    Cambridge (Harvard/MIT area): Take the red line toward Harvard/MIT. Hop off at Central and walk either direction. Pammys - really good food $$$$ Little Donkey - also great food $$$

    Brookline: Go check out Coolidge Corner. Bunch of local shops and some food. Take the Green Line (C branch) towards Cleveland Circle and exit at Coolidge Corner

    Fenway: I will second that Tasty Burger is amazing. There is also a couple cool museums around there. The MFA and the Isabella Stewart Gardner.
