Union Oyster House

The oldest continually running restaurant in America has been serving traditional New England-style fare since 1826. Try the “Shore Dinner,” which comes with oyster chowder, “steamers” (steamed clams dipped in butter), corn and boiled lobster.

Dining

As long as there are fish in the sea, Boston will be a seafood town. New England clam chowder is Boston’s most famous delicacy and is a must try. While the traditional sea fare is as popular as ever, interesting new restaurants of all varieties are popping up every day across the city.
