Essentials

Tasty gourmet grocer just steps down the street. Julia Child would order her meats from this location! Great cheese selection, and super fresh fish too.

Not too shabby having a hooch shop of this caliber on the block. Folks who work there are funny group of misfits too.

Drinks & Nightlife

One of a few neighborhood bars. Don't forget that "HG" has no shortage of delicious items to offer from the kitchen as well. House cocktail: the Moscow Mule.

My neighborhood bar of choice. Classic Boston bar. Beer and wine only. Best sandwiches on Beacon Hill. Darts. Jukebox. Sports on TV. Order the "Sevens Ale," a special brew from the Harpoon Brewery.

Food Scene

Great brunch spot, but I'd strongly suggest calling to order takeout. The lines can be prohibitively long. Call ahead and eat outside if nice out, or bring back to the apartment.

If you're looking to eat dinner and crash after long day out, or big day of travel, it's hard to beat Persian food. Lala Rokh is my favorite meal on the hill.

Classic Beacon Hill restaurant. Free cheese and crackers. Very "beacon hill" atmosphere inside. Much less touristy than the Charles Street clutter.

Incredible bakery for cookies, croissants, cakes, biscotti, etc. Also my favorite breakfast within a 15 minute walk. Nice weather for a morning walk? Take a stroll over the Longfellow Bridge!
