"You’re more likely to be surrounded by visitors than locals at this meticulous recreation of a 1773 restaurant, open since 1976. But where else can you sip beers brewed with the Founding Fathers’ recipes and dig into pepper pot soup and Colonial-style turkey pot pie? Servers are decked out in period garb, of course." - Sarah Maiellano
