King Louis-Philippe of France once lived on the 2nd floor. JFK was a regular. John Kerry is a regular. The oldest continuously operating restaurant in America is quintessential, historic New England.

Try the New England Clam Chowder - The oldest restaurant with the best chowder on the planet. If its good enough for JFK n Daniel Webster it's good snuff for me. Since 1826.

Try the clam chowder (with oyster crackers, of course) after a long, cold, rainy day touring the city. It will be the best you'll ever taste!

Tourist trap - Bostonians don't go here. Walk to the nearby North End and try the Daily Catch instead

Go early and just get the chowder. Chowder is great, mussels were bland and our app with clams and oysters were over cooked not worth 90 dollars.

Best oyster experience in Boston. Tiny little 10 seater bar and great company

Untouched colonial architecture... which is a rarity even in the heart of Boston. Worth a visit for that atmosphere alone.

Must get chowder and Sam Adams Brick Red Ale (only available at a handful of Boston bars). ONLY get oysters if sitting at the oyster bar ( they preshuck them for the dining rooms)

Come to the Union Bar and grab some chowder and a cold, refreshing beer. Always a good time!

Who cares about the tourists? Sit at the raw bar for a half dozen oysters, bowl of chowder and a Sam Adams. Best lunch in the world.
