In the heart of the historic district, the oldest restaurant in Boston, frequented by JFK, offers very fresh seafood.
Opened in 1826, it is the oldest restaurant still in operation in the United States. The cuisine sometimes lacks finesse, but the place deserves a break. There are different places to sit: on the first floor, at the bar (picturesque and lively), under the eyes of the oyster opener, or upstairs. In the evening, the atmosphere is warm (old fashioned lamps, wooden tables) and the room is often full. Originally from Boston, President Kennedy came here regularly and always sat at the same table. A must in Boston, on the Freedom Trail.

My wife and me had lunch here with a shrimp cocktail and a beautiful lobster, very well served and cooked. They serve the traditional bread, a sweet one, that may not match your expectation but is worth to try. The restaurant is situated in a nice place, the Blackstone Block, is itself very typical and hosts a small gift shop. I found the price reasonable, given the quality and the American standards in this kind of restaurants.

Le meilleur sandwich au homard de Boston, servi avec des frites très bien faites. Les décors trace les jallons de la ligne rouge.
